I AM BORED AND I FOUND THIS ON CLAUDIA'S BLOG SO THEREFORE IT IS GETTING DONE
Are you outgoing or shy?
Neither, but as a reasonably confident introvert, I'm closer to shy. And in fairness, I do really hate talking to people I don't know, in certain situations.
Who are you looking forward to seeing?
EVERYBODY AT THE CONTAINER PARTY AHHHHHH I'VE MISSED YOU ALL :(
Are you easy to get along with?
Depends on the context: if we don't know each other that well, and I'm making an effort, then yes, reasonably, except there WILL be innumerable awkward pauses in the conversation. If we're acquaintances, then I am unbelievably difficult to get close to, unless you're the sort of person who doesn't mind making the bulk of the effort and tends to ignore at least a handful of social boundaries. And if we already know each other fairly well, then yes, I think I am pretty easy to get along with.
If you were drunk would the person you like take care of you?
First: I do not get drunk. Second: I don't like anyone in the romantic sense, at least not presently. SO NO.
What kind of people are you attracted to?
People who make me laugh, who are adventurous, who don't cling, who don't force me into things but who suggest doing things that appeal to me, who are intelligent, who speak other languages, who use a lot of Ne… ENTPs. I'm attracted to ENTPs. (but as far as friends go, I always seem to end up with ISFJs and INFPs)
Do you think you’ll be in a relationship two months from now?
HA. No.
Does talking about sex make you uncomfortable?
Immeasurably. Blame it on my upbringing. HOWEVER, I am 100% comfortable with it in certain contexts - honestly, if there's a non-cringeworthy sex scene in a book or a film, I usually don't turn a hair unless there's someone else watching the film with me. Basically, it's not actually talking about sex that bothers me; it's just that growing up, I always saw it as a taboo topic, and felt like I was being judged if I made any sort of remark on it, and I still haven't shaken that.
Who was the last person you had a deep conversation with?
Hmm I think it was with Melinda, on one of our last nights in Grenoble - mostly about racism and prejudice and how it manifests differently in different countries.
Do you like it when people play with your hair?
Yes yes YES YES YES YES
Do you believe in luck and miracles?
Yup
Would you kiss the last person you kissed again?
Do you still talk to your first crush?
Nope.
Do you like bubble baths?
Ooh yessssssss
Do you like your neighbours?
I don't know them particularly well
Where would you like to travel?
EVERYWHERE okay more specifically: I obviously NEED to go back to Andalucía soon or else I will be very sad, plus I would love a little weekend trip back to London or even just the English countryside OR recently I've been really wanting to go to the Scottish highlands because I've never actually been further north than Stirling and this is UNACCEPTABLE. I blame watching Outlander. As for countries I've never been to, I'd love to go to east Asia!!! China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Indonesia, WHY HAVE I NEVER BEEN. And New Zealand. Yes.
Do you have trust issues?
Yep. And anytime I try to overcome them and let people in, I usually either overshare or else draw back at the last moment and end up just being annoyingly cryptic. FUN.
Favourite part of your daily routine?
Anything involving tea
What part of your body are you most uncomfortable with?
There are several different answers I could give to this and all of them are things I would rather not mention SO I am just going to say "my tummy" because that is like a 40% true answer to one of them and trust me, it is not for any reason that you could POSSIBLY think of, even if you pondered it for an entire day.
What do you do when you wake up?
Go back to sleep usually.
Do you wish your skin was lighter or darker?
Neither, though I wish it didn't burn as easily
Who are you most comfortable around?
CLAUDBOJANGLES
Have any of your exs told you they regret breaking up?
Do you ever want to get married?
I don't really mind either way, like if I ever get into a long-term relationship then yes, but I wouldn't mind being unattached either.
Do you play sports? What sports?
Do skiing and salsa count? Otherwise no, I hate sports.
Have you ever liked someone and never told them?
Yes
Describe your dream guy?
Witty, good sense of humour, likes to travel, puts up with me, we can both beat each other at chess.
What are your favourite stores to shop in?
WATERSTONES
What do you want to do after you graduate?
Be an extra on Game of Thrones, because apparently that's not happening anytime BEFORE I graduate.
Do you believe everyone deserves a second chance?
A second chance, yes. A third chance, no.
If you're being extremely quiet what does it mean?
Hmm well if I'm being sort-of quiet then it doesn't mean anything really, that's fairly normal for me, but EXTREMELY quiet? That's not good, that means I'm either sulking, falling asleep, or else mentally listing every single way that I disagree with what you just said.
Do you smile at strangers?
Occasionally, and it always makes my day when I get a smile back, I should do it more often tbh.
What makes you get out of bed in the morning?
Necessity. If I don't have to do something in the morning, I often get up in the afternoon.
What are you paranoid about?
People using my computer, especially when I'm not in the room. To quote the most accurate tumblr post of all time, "I'm not sure exactly what I'm so afraid you're going to find, but I'm 200% sure there's something"
Ever wished you were someone else?
No way.
One thing you wish you could change about yourself?
I wish I could keep in contact with people better.
Ever been in love?
No.
Facebook or Twitter?
twitta
Twitter or Tumblr?
tumbla
Names of your best friends?
Claudbag, May Jay, Giada Giada Giada I MEAN Claudia, Mary-Jane, Jade. They all own very different pieces of my heart
Favourite animal?
SEAL my spirit animal
Do you tan a lot?
Nah, I don't take the sun well and I don't like sunbathing for long, I get bored and uncomfortable and there is too little gain.
Have any pets?
Not at the moment - I miss Bastet and Tao a lot though :(
How are you feeling?
Reasonably content, a fraction irritated, minorly conflicted on several counts.
Do you type fast?
YEAH once in Spain, one of the teachers got me to type something on the computer while the projector was on, so the class could see what I was writing, and then she just GASPED and was like "I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE TYPE SO FAST WHAT SORCERY IS THIS" and the funniest thing was that the whole CLASS was impressed like they were only 3 years younger than me?? Come on folks surely y'all can also type pretty quickly???
Do you regret anything from your past?
Many many MANY little things, very few large things. I do particularly regret not reading a wider range of books when I was younger, instead of rereading all the old ones, though, that was a really terrible decision in hindsight. BLAME IT ON THE TERTIARY Si.
Do you miss anyone from your past?
Yes.
Ever broken someone’s heart?
I am 200% sure I haven't, no worries on that front.
Have you ever been on a horse?
YES I HAVE it was really cool but riding a horse is SO much harder than I was expecting, to be honest.
Have you ever liked someone so much it hurt?
Goodness no. I rarely like people at all, never mind with any sort of intensity! Update: LOL U WAIT
Are you mean?
OH. NOW. This is interesting, because I used to be very mean, and on occasion I still can be - but it always was, and still is, an inadvertent meanness, where I'm just totally unaware that I'm overstepping. I am mean in my sense of humour and I don't entirely intend to hurt people, it just happens. And then I feel bad. AND IT TURNS OUT THAT NOWADAYS I AM INCAPABLE OF BEING INTENTIONALLY MEAN IN A FUN WAY like as in "you make fun of me, I make fun of you, neither of us means it" - no, I can no longer do that. It's infuriating, I end up just kind of staying permanently on the receiving end and unable to think of witty retorts quickly enough. ARGH.
Is cheating ever okay?
In relationships? No. In impersonal matters? Rarely.
Do you believe in love at first sight?
Nah mate
Do you believe in true love?
Yeah mate
What makes you happy?
