Hello children! ^^
I have returned, yet again, to bombard you with my various ramblings induced by sleep deprivation and immense boredom. Today we have a delightful little quiz entitled "100 THINGS ABOUT ME...", curteousy of the lovely :iconpyros-dream:

And so we begin...
1. ONE OF YOUR SCARS, HOW DID YOU GET IT?:
Errem...I don’t really have any scars. I have a permanent burn mark on the middle finger of my left hand that I managed to do whilst removing a light bulb. See, I’m not overly familiar with the concept that a light bulb that has only just been switched off seconds before might turn out to be EXTREMELY hot.
I’m not very bright. T_T Pardon the light bulb related pun.

2. WHAT IS ON THE WALLS IN YOUR ROOM?
A LOT of bluetac. Chipped paint. A couple of mirrors. Fairy lights. Newspaper clippings. Canvases. Photographs.

3. DO YOU SNORE, GRIND YOUR TEETH, OR TALK IN YOUR SLEEP?:
:O With a passion...*hangs head in shame*

4. WHAT TYPE OF MUSIC DO YOU LISTEN TO?:
Everything and anything...within reason. >.>

5. DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME YOU WERE BORN?:
9:30am. On the dot.

6. WHAT DO YOU WANT MORE THAN ANYTHING RIGHT NOW?:
I never know what I want.
Sleep would be good, though. And world peace. But I don’t see either happening any time soon.

7. WHAT DO YOU MISS?:
The old days. And my friends.

8. WHAT IS YOUR MOST PRIZED POSSESSION?:
My memories.

9. HOW TALL ARE YOU?:
I’m not in the habit of measuring myself. Lets just say I’m somewhere in between the likes of Godzilla and an Oompa-Loompa. I’d say I’m more comparable in size to the latter. I have the same facial colouration too.

10. DO YOU GET CLAUSTROPHOBIC?:
Only in REALLY confined spaces. I wouldn’t fare well if I was buried alive...'though I don't suppose anyone would...>.>

11. DO YOU GET SCARED IN THE DARK?:
I used to. I quite enjoy it now, though.

12. THE LAST PERSON TO MAKE YOU CRY?:
Myself.

13. WHAT’S YOUR WORST FEAR?:
Loosing those I care about.

14. WHAT KIND OF HAIR/EYE COLOUR DO YOU LIKE ON THE OPPOSITE SEX?:
I’m not all too fussed, to be honest. ‘though blue eyes are mighty purdy.

15. WHERE CAN YOU SEE YOURSELF PROPOSING AT?:
O.O Proposing WHAT, dear?

16. COFFEE OR ENERGY DRINK?:
Neither.

17. FAVOURITE PIZZA TOPPING?:
Cheese and tomato.

18. IF YOU COULD EAT ANYTHING RIGHT NOW, WHAT WOULD IT BE?:
Frosties.
With warm milk. ^__^

19. FAVOURITE COLOUR OF ALL TIME?:
I’ve always stood firmly by yellow, as it was my favourite colour when I was a kid. But I’m really more of a bluuue kinda gal.

20. HAVE YOU EVER EATEN A GOLDFISH?:
:O Most certainly not!! I’d think that would infringe on some form of bestiality laws, wouldn’t it?! Besides, I’m not that way inclined...I’d much rather fondle a sea monkey.

21. WHAT WAS THE FIRST MEANINGFUL GIFT YOU'VE EVER RECEIVED?:
Errrr...>.>...I don’t think I can really pinpoint the FIRST gift. I prefer meaningful cards, to be honest. I keep every card I’ve ever gotten in a shoe box under my bed. ‘though I have one that :iconfragmeister: gave me one Christmas propped up on my desk, because I think it’s quite possibly THE most heartfelt card I’ve ever gotten from a friend. ^^

22. DO YOU HAVE A CRUSH?:
Indeed.

23. ARE YOU DOUBLE JOINTED?:
Not sure. My feet can sort of bend in an odd way...my toes too...and one of my thumbs pops in and out at command.

24. FAVOURITE CLOTHING BRAND?:
I don’t have one.

25. WHO IS THE HOTTEST FEMALE/MALE CELEBRITY?:
Hottest “Female/Male” celebrity..>.>..well I’d have to say Judy Finnigan. She/He be damn fiiine.

26. DO YOU HAVE A PET RIGHT NOW?:
I sure do.

27. WHAT KIND IS IT?:
A greyhound.

28. WOULD YOU FALL IN LOVE KNOWING THAT THE PERSON IS LEAVING?:
You can’t help who you fall in love with.

30. SAY A NUMBER FROM ONE TO A HUNDRED:
57

31. BLONDES OR BRUNETTES?:
I’m inclined to say brunettes..but only because its a much nicer word to pronounce.

34. HAVE YOU BEEN OUT OF THE UK:
I have, indeed.

35. YOUR WEAKNESSES?:
As if I’d tell you! You’ll only use them to plot my downfall... >.>

36. MET ANYONE FAMOUS?:
>.>...I probably have, but don’t recall. The only person that springs to mind is our very own local MP, James Plaskitt. Ooooh, and I stalked some woman off Hollyoaks through the streets of Liverpool once. I gave chase, but had to give up when my brother started throwing up all over the pavement. It’s not advisable to engage in a high speed pursuit on foot after having had an eating contest at Burger King.

37. FIRST JOB?:
Haven’t had one, yet. I’m a lazy slacker. ‘though I did used to sell homemade perfume on the streets as a kid...I had to put a stop to that though, when my neighbours all started developing rather worrying rashes...>.>

38. EVER DONE A PRANK CALL?:
Yes. I was a HORRIBLE child. T_T

39. DO YOU THINK EVERYONE OUT THERE HAS A SOULMATE?:
Hmm...It’s a nice ideal. However, it’s unlikely. A girl can dream though, can’t she...

40. WHAT WERE YOU DOING BEFORE YOU FILLED THIS OUT?:
A little bit o’ this, a little bit o’ that.

41. HAVE YOU EVER HAD SURGERY?:
Yes. I had to have my eye lid cut open when I was 7.

42. WHAT DO YOU GET COMPLIMENTED ABOUT MOST?:
My art?! :S

43. HAVE YOU EVER HAD BRACES?:
Yes.

44. WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY?:
Not to be turning 20. -_- *sobs* 'though an abundance of antique cameras would prove a small yet notable consolation. :p

45. HOW MANY KIDS DO YOU WANT?:
As of yet, I’m undecided. But 2 is a nice round number.

46. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?:
Nooo. Well..not my first name, at least. My middle names, Elizabeth and Alexandra, come from my mum and the street that we used to live in.

47. WHAT IS THE BIGGEST TURN OFF OF THE OPPOSITE SEX?:
Them being a complete tw*t!?

48. WHAT IS ONE THING YOU MISS ABOUT HIGH SCHOOL?:
My friends. If it weren’t for them I wouldn’t have stuck it out as long as I did.

49. WHAT KIND OF SHAMPOO DO YOU USE?:
Gawd knows. I just pick up a bottle. It could have vodka in it for all I know...>.>...that would probably explain why my hair is thinning so much. And why I attract so many Russians.

50. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?:
I do, as a matter of fact. ^^

51. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE LUNCH MEAT?:
Potato.

52. ANY BAD HABITS?:
Ohhhhh...far too many to count...we’ve already covered the snoring, grinding teeth and sleep talking.........washing my hair in vodka..milking men...then there’s the procrastination...the insomnia...the stalking...fornicating with the elderly...to say that my eating habits leave a little more to be desired would be a MAJOR understatement...........................in short...I’m a freak. XD

53. ARE YOU A JEALOUS PERSON?:
When it comes to matters of the heart then, yes.

54. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON, WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?:
God no.

55. DO YOU AGREE WITH FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS?:
I’m not entirely sure what you mean...>.>...I’d like to think that this is a perfectly innocent question...something that the Inland Revenue would ask...but I dare say its not...

56. DO LOOKS MATTER?:
Not to me. But I’d be a fool to say that they don’t matter to other people.

57. HOW DO YOU RELEASE ANGER?:
Release?! Pfft. I need no release. Bottling up my feelings has thus far proved VERY effective. :D I think I’m beginning to crack, though...>.>...I sense a murderous rampage is somewhat imminent. If I were you, I’d get some popcorn, sit back and enjoy the show. It’s gonna be a humdinger.

59. WHAT’S YOUR MAIN GOAL IN LIFE?:
To live. And try to make others happy.

60. WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE TOY AS A CHILD?:
Oh, I have loads. The one that sticks out in my mind, though, is my Woody the cowboy doll from Toy Story. I used to take him everywhere.

61. HOW MANY NUMBERS ARE IN YOUR MOBILE PHONE?:
There’s no waaaay i’m counting. Far too many than there should be, though. I never delete old numbers when somebody gets a new phone. I just save their new number under their name and add a 2..or 3..or 4..or god knows however many phones they’ve had in the last 5 years, to the end of it.

62. WERE YOU A FAN OF BARNEY AS A LITTLE KID?:
HELL YEAH.

63. DO YOU USE SARCASM?
See above.

64. MASHED POTATOES OR MACARONI AND CHEESE?:
Mashed taters.

65. WHAT DO YOU LOOK FOR IN A GUY/GIRL?:
Someone who can understand, accept and love you for who you are. ‘though a good sense of humour and compassion bode well too.
And they’d have to be clinically insane.

66. WHAT ARE YOUR NICKNAMES?:
Kateroo, Katosama, Katie-Pie...just a lot of names with “Kate” at the front, really. Oh, and Bob.

68. WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE TV SHOW:
I don’t have the priveledge of watching much t.v these days. >.<

69. WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO DEAL WITH YOUR ENEMIES?:
Take a chainsaw to them?! No...that’s quite barbaric.
Feed them copious amounts of cake?! Give them flowers?! Inflict glompage upon them?!
Do unto others what you would have done to yourself, is a policy I generally follow. But If all else fails, serve them a steaming cold pint of p*ss.

70. WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE ICE CREAM FLAVOUR?:
Vanilla. ^__^ Om nom nom. ‘though I’ve rather taken a liking to Caramel, of late...*drools*...but only from that little vendor in the Priors shopping centre. Nobody else can make it thaaat gooood.

71. DO YOU HAVE ALL OF YOUR FINGERS AND TOES?:
Thankfully, yes.
And I intend on keeping it that way...hence my distaste for ice-skating. *shudder* I can’t watch Dancing on Ice without flinching.....but that could just be down to the ominous presence of Jayne Torvill in a flesh baring skin tight lycra suit...

72. DO YOU HAVE A COMPUTER IN YOUR ROOM?:
I have 2 computers in my room. Neither of which are in working order. And then there’s my laptop. Which has seen better days. -_-

73. PLANS FOR TONIGHT?:
Eat, drink and be merry.

74. WHAT'S THE FASTEST YOU'VE EVER GONE IN A CAR?:
On one particular occasion, EXTREMELY fast. And I didn’t like it. As a result I’m absolutely petrified of being a passenger in a fast car. I don’t like feeling out of control.

75. DO YOU WANT EVERYONE TO ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS?:
Well, that’s entirely up to them.

76. WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO?:
Yann Tiersen.

77. LAST THING YOU DRANK?:
Orenjiiii squashuuu.

78. LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO ON THE PHONE?
My granny.

79. THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE IN THE OPPOSITE SEX?:
I don’t know. I think it’s different with every person.

80. WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO IN YOUR SPARE TIME?:
I have no spare time. T_T For now...>.>

81. FAVOURITE THING TO HATE?:
I don’t particularly take joy in hating anything. Except for Westlife.

82. FAVOURITE MONTH OF THE YEAR?:
October. ‘tis when Halloween is upon us. ^^

83. WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE TYPE OF CANDY?
Chupa-Chups Coka Cola flavoured lollypops. ^^

84. HAVE YOU EVER REALLY AND TRULY HAD A BEST FRIEND?:
No.

85. WHAT IS YOUR HAIR COLOUR?:
Riiiight now..well..it’s just been dyed again..so it’s a dark chocolaty brown.

86. EYE COLOR?:
Also, dark chocolaty brown. I use Just For Men. It really does cover all greys...and causes permanent retinal damage.

88. FAVOURITE FAST FOOD PLACE?:
Wetherspoon’s! :D

89. FAVOURITE RESTAURANT?:
Wetherspoon’s! :D

90. DO YOU LIKE SUSHI?:
Wetherspoon’s!!...don’t do sushi. :( And if Wetherspoon’s don’t do it then I don’t eat it. :p

91. LAST THING YOU WATCHED?:
This screen.

92. FAVOURITE DAY OF THE YEAR?:
Halloween. And Christmas...’though I enjoy the Christmas period a lot more than the actual day, itself...so we’ll go with Halloween. ^^

93. PLAY ANY MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS?:
I used to. Ze violin..piano..recorder...hell, I even gave panpipes a shot for a while. I probably couldn’t play any of them now, though...much too out of practise...-_-...but i’d like to take up an instrument again one day. ^^

94. REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT?:
Wha-a-a-a? :S

95. KISSES OR HUGS?
Can I have both? Hugs are nicer, though.

Relationships.

97. WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU BOUGHT?:
Oooh..er..um....................a train ticket back to Leamington from Worcestershire.

98. DO YOU HAVE A LOW SELF ESTEEM OR A HIGH SELF ESTEEM?:
That depends on how much alcohol I’ve consumed.
Which doesn’t say a great deal...considering I don’t drink.

The Godfather by Mario Puzzo.

I’m an agnostic in the sense that “I doubt that a question has one correct answer or that something can be completely understood”. I’m a great believer in possibilities, though.

Of course. ^^

Blimey-Oh-Riley...i’ve spent the best part of an hour on this little quiz. :O And I have taken up far too much of your time as it is...so I shall get back to work now! >.O

Be happy. :) Love to you all.
