Not really. Sorry to spoil the fun.
Why do humans often look on the bad side of things?
Because things go really bad
Why are you optimistic?
I enjoy my life as dull as it is sometimes. I love my garden and playing football. Simple but important.
Given my stressing over my new job lately, why do you think I am optimistic?
Because I saw your smile :p :devil:
Do you think that life is easy?
No way. It is unnecessarily hard. I mean I just want a job to earn enough money to enjoy life, however all the stuff around it that is expected of you makes it hard.
Do you enjoy the simple things in life? (bird song, sunshine and stuff like that)
Well, not such things related to nature. But I enjoy simple things like a dynamic thread on the forum, a good movie in my fav theatre, a friends reunion for a "glass of talking''.
When was the last time you had a fight?
If your talking fist fight. Never. I am too nice and calm to fight :) Fight with words. hmmm...... Have to say I can't remember one really for a couple of years. At football I had a argument with a team mate.
Have you had a fight recently?
Most of the time. I've become a package of nerves.
When I'm angry I talk dirty. But what really scare me is that more and more often I feel like hitting somebody. Keep the guns away from me.:dork:
Have you ever win a contest?
I once came joint first in a drawing competition for the David Coulthard fan club. Thats about it sadly. I am a loser generally. :(
Have you ever visited an ancient castle or house?
Before we moved to NZ, visited a few in England. But here in NZ there are no ancient structures too visit.
Could you have survived living in the Middle Ages?
Who knows?
Do you have a loud laugh?
No, I answered yours
yes (to loud laugh)
if you were to be born in a different time/epoch what would you choose?
End of the 19th century.
If you were to be born again what would you like to be, boy or girl and why?
Perhaps a boy because I like sports.
What do you prefer on women, pants or a dress?
Dress. I will let you guess why :D
What have you done today?
Wandering through the old town in search of a frock. :p
Felt sick for a bit. Now I'm watching Simona Halep losing at US open.
will you have a busy weekend?
Football tomorrow morning, then lunch and watching a football match on tv with my friends, then watching my local team play in the afternoon.
Sunday I am going to the British GT Championship all day at Brands Hatch.
So you won't see much of me here this weekend. :)
Do you have a valuable piece of furniture?
No. But in my bedroom I have a few nice old pieces. Also there's a nice assembly of bookshelves.
All my sports favs lost this week. Liverpool, Steaua, Simona Halep. Why? Is it something wrong with me?
Not at all. You are not God Gadjo ;) They can lose with or without your support.
What is Time?
The forth dimension.
It's a holiday weekend here, what is anyone on this side of the Atlantic going to do?
Something untouchable, pretious, perpetual,relative.....
Or better said, something that I also waste....
Are you stubborn?
Sorry, I was late......
Not really. I can be if someone treats me bad or I disagree with something enough, but ultimately I tend to go with the flow.
What is your favourite genre of Music?
Folk
Same Q
New age with jazz and classical close seconds. Used to be a huge folkie, but that was a while back.
What type of books do you like?
These days I seldom read although I have more than 50 new books waiting on the shelves. I don't have the patience to read novels anymore. I prefer essays or short stories. There are a few Romanian writers and journalists that I like and try to follow their works. And their work deals with the current situation here but in a sweet bitter comical way. I also read the books of one of our historians who sees the things a bit different. He demolished all the myths about our glorious ancestors. Totally different of the we were indoctrinated in school.
What is your fav book?
If I had to pick just one? ...tough
2001: A Space Odyssey (Arthur C Clarke), Cosmos (Carl Sagan), The Godfather and a couple others in Marathi (one is a travelogue, another a history of WW2 - that you will not know) are near the top of my list though. Much easier to list my favourite authors :)
Favourite film(s)?
I think you already know them. :devil:
But just like you said, it's easier to say the movie directors: Emir Kusturica, Pedro Almodovar, Andrei Tarkovski, Milos Foreman( in his Czechoslovakian period), Fellini, Chaplin.
There are also 2 old movies that I've seen a million times but don't bore me: Zorba the Greek and Casablanca.
I love to bits the movies of Romanian Nae Caranfil, this guy has a crazy sense of humour.
Who's your fav painter? ( those who paint houses excluded)
Constable as he painted my local area. I am not massively up on painters
What have you done today?
Was out for a few hours to look for that bloody frock for the wedding.
Once again I felt sick in the middle of the street,
Nothing else. I'm tired and I hope to sleep at least 6 hours.
Did your team win the match?
2-2 draw
How many people do you see each day on average?
On weekends 2
On working days about 20.
I suppose the q was about people I know.
When was the last time you ate an ice-cream?( I know it's a stupid q :s)
Not at all. I ate a bowl of ice cream yesterday but it must be a months since I had an ice cream
What is your favourite flavour ice cream?
Tiramisu and forest fruits. In fact I like all flavours.....
Are you interested in body building?
