@ zena4. I would like to give it a shot for at least a month. If it's too difficult at least I know I gave it a shot.

@Acacia. I would like to think that my life's calling would revolve around being a help to people in need. If so, then I have yet to achieve it.


What do you normally do (activities) on a weekend?

usually do some work during the day (freelance work or/and renovating my flat :P), then cook something nice and chill out. I go out sometimes with some mates but for some reason we mainly meet during the week for after-work beers :p

do you have any bad habits that you're trying to get rid of?

(BTW I_wanna_blue I love the new avatar! :lol: )

Thanks anna. :D

Any bad habits? I'm probably a bit too lazy at times, when it comes to doing the chores.

When the last time you went on holiday/vacation etc? And did you enjoy it?

It was in the end of june this year. I went to a place at the ocean with my cousin and I loved every second of that week. It was wonderful!


How often do you clean your home?

My place of residence cycles through week-long periods of neglect, interspersed with random manic cleaning freakouts. It's very irregular and chaotic.

What do you want for your birthday?

Just had my birthday and as always I didn't know what to wish but now I want a big book about plants. How to multiply (and proper timing), taking care, taxonomic names.... all the data possible of lots of plants. (for hobby and work)

~

Would you say you have 'green thumbs' (or 'green fingers' as we say in Holland) and do you enjoy working in, lets say, a garden?

I have the biggest serious newspaper (not a tabloid) as homepage when entering internet every day. So I automatically get informed. I use to scroll it down to see the basics but I rarely enter any articles to read more. Mostly news is about politics and to me abstract issues that I dont understand the headlines of in the first place....


What in the news gets your attention?

I love all the weird and unbelievable stories, but I mostly check tech and science news, plus financial but I listen to that on the radio. I only scroll through political news stories nowdays, totally lost interest. I think the latest big story that I was following real closely was the kidnapping of the "Arctic Sea", but that's probably because I love pirates and conspiracy theories :P so yeah, a total addict here

have you noticed Halloween decorations in some shops yet?

Little compensation for the short answer (no worries) but....

I'm not someone who enjoys shopping much and I haven't been downtown for quite a while now so I don't know if there is already Halloween stuff around. To be honest, I don't even know when Halloween is.... (in October, right?)

And yes, I finished my dinner an hour ago. I had 'pasta erminisimo' with lots of vegetables and fresh herbs. Good food and now I'm eating a quarter of a melon.

Do you own a bicycle? Use it much?

Yes I own a bicycle and I use it everytime I want to go somewhere. Its a very loved and appreciated item of mine, Its very relaxing to bike and its good excercise and practical and independent way of transportation both of myself and of groceries

Profoundly. Although it doesn't really end in Florida for at least another month. We don't start getting Autumn weather until late October down in these parts. Autumn is my absolute favorite season, so yes, I am glad to see Summer winding down.

Supposing you have unlimited time and resources, what large project would you like to work on?

I actually want to work on everything, but if there is something I really liked to work on, it would be investing and developing my own multimedia design firm. I try a lot of times, but fail due to lack of time and money. And motivation, to add at it.

Do you feel easily demotivated?

My motivation comes in swells. It's not consistent at all.
Sometimes I feel like doing nothing (and solidly follow through with it).
Other times I feel like doing EVERYTHING (and really really REALLY try to do so).
So uh, I guess the answer is: "sometimes"

If you found a $100 bill on the ground in a restaurant, very near some tables where people are sitting, would you attempt to find the owner and return the bill, or would you quietly tuck it in your pocket and leave as if nothing had happened?
