erilynI was too lazy to do any of these quizzes about other people, but I decided to do some of it about myself, in case any of y'all was curious.
Where do I live: Sydney, Australia
Do I have any children: Ha, no. And I strongly doubt I ever will.
Do I smoke: Nope.
Do I drink: Yes, but not that often sadly.
Do I have any siblings: I've got a brother who is 6 years older, and a sister who's 3 years older. Love them both heaps.
Do I get along with my parents: Since I still live with them, it's a good thing I do.
How many tattoos do I have: None. I'm not opposed to the idea, but have never come across something that I want forever.
How many piercings do I have: None, not even my ears. My sister had such problems with her ear piercings when she was a teenager (infections and scar tissue buildup despite taking good care) that it put me off it and I've never got around to it.
What's my favorite type of music: Pop, I guess.
Who is my favorite band/artist: Queen? Hard question.
What's my favorite TV show: Right now...Heroes and Criminal Mindsare probably satisfying me the most, with House, Supernatural, Torchwood, Veronica Mars and NCIS (I know! When did that sneak into the favourites?) close behind. America's Next Top Model and House of Carters both alternate between the most addictive crack ever and boring me. Studio 60 is barely hanging in there on my viewing schedule. ETA: I finally saw last week's episode, and it's safe on my viewing schedule for now.
What is my favorite book:...I seriously wouldn't even know where to begin in answering this question.
Who is my favorite writer: Ditto. Lois McMaster Bujold?
Am I shy or outgoing: A mix of both. Often when I feel shy, I overcompensate with being way too loud.
What's my favorite colour: Light blue, I guess. How very Justin of me. Or green, I love rich greens.
Name something I hate: Pairings with a major inherent power imbalance. Snooty music snobs who dismiss all pop music as crap, or anything popular as crap just because it's mainstream. Eating seafood. "Funny" shows/movies that only make me cringe. Disappointing people, especially my parents.
Name a talent I have: I am completely talentless - can't sing, can't dance, can't play musical instruments (three years of flute as a kid don't really count), can't do art or craft (could barely colour within the lines or cut out neatly).
What kind of shoes do I wear: Sensible. I have wide, hard-to-fit feet, and go for comfort over style every time (especially as finding shoes for my feet are just hard to begin with). Not that I don't have some cute shoes, but that's the trend.
Do I have any pets: Sadly, no. Almost two years ago, we had to have our elderly kitty put down. Also, for many years, we kept tropical fish, but not anymore.
Name one thing I find attractive: Intelligence + sense of humour (there's a reason I have this icon).
What was my major: I did psych at uni when I was first out of school. Now I'm studying accounting.
What color is my room: Cream. With lots of age-inappropriate posters and fannish accessories.
What is my worst habit: Where to start? Chewing my fingernails, messy, procrastinating, lazy etc.
Well, that was time well-spent rather than studying ;)
