Determination, motivation. I wish I could do the things that I know need to get done.
But somehow I always let my plans fall apart, everything takes too long, and I end up doing nothing with my life.

Same. What is something you're lacking in life that you would like to have more of, e.g. friends?

Employment at a job that provides a schedule would be nice.



Same.

Keira's answer is quite good and I feel the same way as sagan. I'll add that I would like to be more like I thought I would be.


Have you ever saved someone's life and if you haven't, would you risk your own life to save someone else's?

Do cats count? I did risk a nasty infection to save one. :lol:

OK, serious answer.
No, I haven't. I don't know if I would risk my life. I believe it would be a spur of the moment decision so I don't know what instincts would prevail.

I do believe that we may save someone's life indirectly or not knowing about it. For example, donating blood or giving a good advice, or saying the right words at the right time to the suicidal person. I think that's the real selfless good because you don't get anything back. You can't even take pride in it.


Same question.

Clearly cats are people too and should count at least as much. I think I could and would, but can't say I've definitely done so up to this point. Would I give mine for another. I think in an instantaneous decision I would, but I am not that confident if it required some pondering.



If you were going to build something, what would you end up doing?

Most likely a house. A little house all of my own.

A silly question: do you have a happy dance? How do you express yourself when you're extremely happy?

No happy dance. I wish dancing was a more fluid thing for me. I do sing some if I hear a good song and I am in a good mood. Depending where that is at, it can draw some looks. I'd say I also that I can get much more energetic, always frenetic, when I am really excited about something- almost like a little kid anticipating something good that is going to happen but they are told they have to wait.



What time of day do you look forward to most? Why?

Depends on the day, but I like days where there's still a whole afternoon and evening of planned activities to look forward to even if you only just got up at say 4 pm.

Oh whoops. Same question!

Hmm - afternoon or evening, depending on the time of year.

Do you like it when the days are long or short (in the sense of daylight)?

I like long days. Once winter rolls around, it seems like I don't see the sun for a couple of months. It wears on me after a while.


If you were going to start your own business, what would you sell or what services would you offer?

A small take-out barbecue stand, take-out only, near a bus stop or trolley station.
Question: your worst phobia, and what was your worst experience with it?

I have an intense fear of heights and my worse experience with it is the time that I sent to the Sears Tower restaurant in Vancouver and we were in the elevator that has a glass front and mu mum didn't warn me.

Of the three amigos in Flushed Away is Roddy, Rita or Sid your favourite and why?

I don't think I've seen the entire movie and it has been awhile since I saw a piece of it. I think Sid though I can't recall who anyone else is. :)


What do you like to do with your time, spare or otherwise?

I would like to say that I spend it doing something productive but mostly I just waste it. :oops:

What do you usually do just before falling asleep?

I think far too much about everything. It helps keep me from sleeping. Reading, particularly something either exceedingly dull or hard to understand, will put me under, but I seem to be lazy to want to read. :)

Do you like to be in charge, offering advice and making suggestions, or are you more likely to just go with the flow and do what everyone else is doing, even if you know a better way?

I find it very hard to go with a flow if I know better but I don't like to be in charge or be a leader either. I'll offer advice or make a suggestion if I think I have a good one.
Usually I just end up doing things my own way but doing them alone. Actually I prefer it that way.

When was the last time you laughed out loud and why?
