Bubble No. 65: Stolen Survey
(Yoinked from Old & Bald. This really is a highly amusing survey. Pretty insightful, too.)
1. Do you have a bad temper? How has this changed (if at all) over the years? What are some things that rile you up?
~ Actually, my temper is a flash fire. I get -really- angry… and then I’m done. ^_^ It’s highly amusing. However, some things never fail to anger me. Cruelty to animals will put me on the war path faster than anything else. Injustice is another. Life may not be fair, but there’s no reason to make it worse for people.
2. If you’re not a bad-tempered person, or even if you are, how does other people’s shows of anger make you feel? What is your usual reaction?
~When people get angry, I tend to get scared and want to soothe the situation. I’m not sure why, but displays of anger worry me. I always assume that I’ve done something wrong and I seek to fix what happened.
3. Are you scared of many things? How has this changed over the years? Are there any things you weren’t scared of as a younger person, that you are scared of now?
~Spiders. *gick* Actually, I’m not scared of much. It’s mainly little things, like parasites and tightly confined spaces.
4. Are you a worrier? How has this changed over the years? What are the main things you worry about?
~I worry when I’m stressed, but if everything’s working out, I tend to just let things do as they will. When I -really- want something to succeed, I worry about it.
5. What are the main things you think you need to have, in order to feel "secure" in life?
~Friends, a roof, a bed and books. ^_^ I can live without a lot of things, but those are the absolute basic necessities.
6. How do you feel when you make a mistake? Does it make a difference, whether or not someone else saw it happen?
~The word ‘mistake’ by its’ very nature implies accidental or unwitting actions which do not fit either the situation or the person. So when I make mistakes, I tend to groan about it, thwap myself a bit, and move on. If you learn from it, why hate yourself for it?
7. Are you harsher on yourself or on others?
~On myself. I tend to be extremely critical of people I view as unintelligent or deliberately obtuse, but I’ll snarl at myself more.
8. Are you an irritable person? What things irritate you?
~I’m not overly irritable, but I can snap. The -biggest- pet peeve is someone interrupting me when I’m reading. GAH! I -HATE- that!!!
9. Has anyone ever said or implied that you can be an irritating person?
~*grin* On a daily basis.
10. Are you a very private person? What are some things you demand privacy for?
~Some things I hold very close to my chest. For the most part, however, I’m open. I like the exchange of information between people. I like to get to know people, and I don’t mind if they know me.
11. Do you get embarrassed easily? Are you more likely to get embarrassed by something you do, or something someone else does?
~I actually do embarrass pretty easily when it comes to saying something in ignorance. Other than that… *laughing* I was in theatre. I have no shame. NONE!
12. Do you suffer from sleep problems of any kind?
~Too little?
13. Do you often suffer indigestion or constipation or any o’that stuff?
~Nope. I’m rarely ill.
14. Or do you have more than your fair share of aches and pains?
~I tend to get back and neck aches, as well as joint aches, but that’s just part of life. Headaches send me -running- for the painkiller, though.
15. What’s the thing you like most about your body? What’s the thing you like least?
~I’m liking more and more of it as time passes. I love my body shape. It’s very classical. (And mah neko likes the hourglass figure anyway.) If I could change one thing, I’d have freakin’ boobs! (God was not generous.)
16. What’s the thing you like best about your-whole-self? What’s the thing you like least?
~I love my enthusiasm. Exuberance is beauty, passion is life and joy should be in everything you do. Possibly the only thing I don’t -really- like is my tendancy to let things lapse. Start a story, leave it. Make a character, leave it. Gah… I need to COMPLETE projects!
17. When’s the last time you lied?
~*thinks* Actually, it’s been a long time. When you don’t feel judged, you don’t have to hide anything.
18. When’s the last time you had sex? When’s the last time you wanted to have sex, but didn’t?
~*grin* Yesterday. (And yeah, it was good. ^_~) The last time I wanted to but didn’t? When the "red moon" rose… *grumble*
19. When’s the last time you hurt yourself really bad…. can we assume this was an accident, or are you one who hurts yourself on purpose at times?
~ The last serious injury was when my leg got crushed right after the election in Lubb
ock.
20. What’s the last thing you felt guilty about? Do you feel guilty often?
~*thinks* Having my boyfriend pay for dinner three nights running. I’m still working off the training that I have to pay for EVERYTHING. He keeps telling me it’s okay, but I still worry.
21. Do you ever try to make someone else feel guilty? Does it work? ~I think I do it without meaning to at times. Guilt trips just freakin’ work on most people. When I realize I’ve done it, I don’t like what I’ve done and I try to change it.
22. When’s the last time you cried? Were you alone or with someone? ~*thinks* I nearly cried last night when Neko said something really sweet.
23. What is the most environmentally-unfriendly thing you have done recently, if anything? What is the most environmentally-friendly thing you do, regularly?
~Unfriendly thing? I smoke, so atmosphere pollutants don’t help. Friendly thing? *laughing* I rescue toads.
24. When’s the last time someone did something really nice or helpful for you without you even asking?
~Neko and Okami agreed to pay the first month’s rent by themselves because I arranged for the deposit money. *cuddles mah guys, smooches mah neko silly* I love these two.
25. When’s the last time you did something really nice or helpful for someone else without them even asking?
~I don’t keep track of stuff like that. I think it might have been bringing Okami’s XP disk over, or getting lunch for my Wuffie, but hell… *shrug* This is life. You either make it good for each other or you don’t.
