Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions


Thank God it's Christmas break. My workload last week was completely insane. In the past seven years of my secondary school life I have never ever had so much essays to finish in a week. I guess I've been using Words too often these days that some days ago I ummm, mistook its icon as Google Chrome's. So I know this holiday is not supposed to be so much fun and that it should be dedicated to revision. Still, I'll be allowing myself to do things that I love and meet people I love. Just CANNOT WAIT to see my favorite bunch next week! Almost everybody has returned home :-) For now, let me do this tagging game as I've been tagged by Joy, one of my favorite bloggers who inspire a lot.

Rules:
1. You must post these rules.
2. Each per­son must post 11 things about them­selves on their blog.

3. Answer the ques­tions the tag­ger set for you in their post, and cre­ate 11 new ques­tions for the peo­ple you tag to answer.
4. You have to choose 11 peo­ple to tag and link them on the post.5. Go to their page and tell them you have linked him or her.
6. No tag backs.
7. No stuff in the tag­ging sec­tion about ‘you are tagged if you are read­ing this.’ You legit­i­mately have to tag 11 people.

Rebel. Since there isn't any curse for not sticking to these rules, I'm gonna break some. Haha! The fact is that I don't have much blogger friends so I'm not tagging anybody. I'll still create 11 questions though. Anyone who read them by chance could answer any of them in the comments section below or post them on their blogs.

11 Things About Myself:
  1. I never really like eating potato chips. As far as I can remember, I haven't bought myself a pack of chips since forever.
  2. I hoard all sorts of things: decorative tapes, stickers, posters, notebooks, pouches, tote bags, boxes, shopping bags and tags. What else? You name it.
  3. That contributes to the super messiness of my room. Yes, it's time to start cleaning up.
  4. I wear my Holly Golightly ring every day except on school days.
  5. I love writing and receiving postcards and letters. It makes me happy and proud to see the pile of them growing.
  6. When I was a kid, I used to think that the bass guitar produces no sounds at all. (What a joke.) It wasn't until I watched School of Rock that I know the importance of bass tunes. Respect for all bassists out there!
  7. I listen to the radio so much more than I watch the television. 
  8. I have a thing for Union Jack and polka dots.
  9. Just like how Tavi has her shrine to Hole and Courtney Love, I've got mine in my room which is dedicated to two of my favorite bands, Wildchild and flumpool
  10. Sophisticated as it might sound, my favorite colours are burgundy, turquoise and mustard yellow.
  11. I enjoy spending time on my own. I've tried going to new places/ eating/ watching a gig without anyone accompanying. I might as well go to the cinema by myself.
Questions from Joy:
  1. If you could be anyone for a day (could be fictional/historical), who would it be? 
    Definitely Audrey Hepburn. I loved her even more after I had finished reading
     Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M. (It's a real nice book btw).
  2. Field Notes or Moleskines?
    Moleskines! I love using my cardboard red cahier journals.
  3. What is the last thing you ate?
    Super delicious ramen from Menya Musashi. Honestly they make the world's most delicious ramen. I visit them every time I go to Tokyo, first thing after I arrived. I'm so surprised and glad that they set up their first oversea branch here in HK.
  4. If you can be anywhere you want right now, where would it be? 
    Please throw me to Harajuku. I'm missing every street there.
  5. If you could go back in time and change any historical event, what would it be?
    I wish John Lennon had never been shot and killed 31 years ago.
  6. What is your favorite piece of clothing in your wardrobe right now?
    Oh no, this is hard. Right now it might be the red wool cardigan with gold buttons from Zara. It's very christmassy.
  7. Which would you prefer if you had to pick either one, Zara or H&M?
    Another difficult one. Zara maybe? More expensive yet better quality. Fewer outfit clashes.
  8. Morning person or night owl?
    Night owl forever. I'm the kind of person who never get things started till deadline's approaching (I always manage to meet deadlines though..), which means I've always been depriving myself from sleep. Indeed, I feel more energized at night than in the morning.
  9. What is the last thing you do before you go to bed?
    Very mundanely, checking if there're any notifications on my phone.
  10. Favorite smell in the world? (No perfumes allowed)
    I don't really have one but I do like the smell of blown candles. Weird isn't it?
  11. Most important lesson learnt in 2011?
    Ugly things happen, but embrace them. It's true when people say "whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger." 
My Questions:
  1. What are you favorite bookmarks on the web?
  2. Handwritten or typed? (Anything from assignments to letters and notes)
  3. What is your cell phone wallpaper right now?
  4. What would you do when you cannot sleep?
  5. What is your favorite lyrics?
  6. A childhood TV program you loved so much that you wish it would air again?
  7. What do you have for breakfast?
  8. Who is your muse?
  9. Do you hoard anything? If so, what is it?
  10. Where is your favorite place at school?
  11. What is your greatest music discovery of 2011?
