    Answer these questions.....

    I always like these ones - simple but interesting :)

    Answer the questions below in the most truthful manner you can. And dont give lame multiple answers because you cant dig deep enough to think of just ONE.

    Any takeaway related answers (Chilli sauce on a kebab making you cry for instance....) will have you EVEEECTED.


    When was the last time you made someone else laugh?
    Erm, last night out with some girl.

    When was the last time you cried?
    When i was 17 - Thats quite worrying i reckon.

    Name one thing your ashamed that you did.
    I was a bit of a bully to my poor brother when we were kids. But we are best of mates now and closer than most siblings.

    Who is your hero/heroine?
    Difficult. Right now its probably a friend of mine for just being an inspiration.

    Do you ever regret being part of the clubbing lifestyle and its various excesses?
    Monday mornings after a 'bout' of clubbing are always tough but going clubbing regularly and being a small part of a 'culture' like this is probably one of the best things ive ever done. I do worry about the effect all the late nights, booze, fags and whatever will have on my body in 10 years tho. Im paranoid i have a damaged liver.

    Where is the next place you want to go in the world? Why?
    Hmmm. Probably Thailand. I love asian culture and still havent been there

    Whats your biggest talent?
    Making people laugh probably.

    What was the last book you read?
    Last book - 'Mid Life Crisis at 30 - How the stakes have changed for modern women' - Bought at a book store in Arequipa, Peru when i was desparate for something to read in the english language.

    What is the book your reading now?
    Margaret Thatcher - the Downing Street years. Its a brilliant book actually - even if you dont like the women, theres no doubting she had balls of steel and vision.

    Do you like your job? Why?
    Just changed jobs so im going through the tiring phase and getting up at 6.15 and having to leave at 7.10am is a shock to the system. BUT its with people i like. So yeah - Next time you do an insurance quote online, maybe it was me who worked on that site :)

    Whats your biggest dream or aspiration?
    These days - Just to be happy and content.

    Next year - what would you like to achieve?
    To have earned more than 50k that year.

    Do you drive? What car?
    No - im going to buy one soon though. Alfa GTV is on the shortlist.

    What is the TV show you watch the most?
    None at all - I dont have a TV any more.

    How much water do you drink a day?
    about 4 pints.

    Re: Answer these questions.....

    When was the last time you made someone else laugh?
    Last night at work.

    When was the last time you cried?
    When my manofscience broke my PC yesterday.

    Name one thing your ashamed that you did.
    Glitter Angel.

    Who is your hero?
    Michael Palin, fantastic bloke that shows great humility.

    Do you ever regret being part of the clubbing lifestyle and its various excesses?
    Yes, but not exclusively. the thought of pills/speed even coke, makes me pretty sick now. Not really done anything in the last 2 years but can feel the effects still.

    Where is the next place you want to go in the world? Why?
    Chile, its somewhere thats always fascinated me, same for Istanbul and the Causcus Mountains.. I'm really curious about the north middle eastern culture.

    Whats your biggest talent?
    My stupidly useless geographic knowledge.. that and according to my lecturers, my visualisation skills, ie. designing spaces.

    What was the last book you read?
    'Transfroming Barcelona' and Iain Banks 'Raw Spirit'.

    What is the book your reading now?
    'Tearing Down the Streets: Adventures in Crime and Anarchy' about all things classed as chaotic in cities...

    Do you like your job? Why?
    I work in a bar p/t in addition to studying my masters and I love it, can't wait till I don't have to work nights anymore though :D

    Whats your biggest dream or aspiration?
    For the work I do to make a difference to peoples lives, which it invariably will, and to be innvolved in projects that shape the future yet learn from the mistakes of past. Getting the British public to pull their heads out their arses and develop some kind of conscience about the way we live, especially compared to the rest of europe is also related to this.

    Next year - what would you like to achieve?
    To be working on either the Olympic development team in London or be abroad.

    Do you drive? What car?
    Yes, but no car.

    What is the TV show you watch the most?
    None.

    Re: Answer these questions.....

    Good post this one fella.. gettin a lot of sensible answer from people. Makes interesting reading!

    When was the last time you made someone else laugh?
    To be honest I'm not sure. I think I made my gf laugh yesterday.. but she wasn't totally in stiches. THe last time I put someone into a laughing fit was a few months ago at the pub.

    When was the last time you cried?
    My last full on crying session was about 5 years ago.. after a massive argument with my ex.. the last time I shed a few tears wasn't too long ago, I generally can't help it if I feel a little depressed or down.

    Name one thing your ashamed that you did.
    Not trying harder during education. Without gloating too much I was told I was intelligent and could go on to do great things.. however a misled few years between the ages of 14 - 16 and then too much messing about at college have left me in a less then desirable place. If I could pass some words of wisdom onto the people on this board who are at college or uni then It would be to stick in, you have good prospects if you do. If you choose to slack a bit then you'll only live to regret giving up the chance you once had.

    Who is your hero/heroine?
    There are too many to list in total. I'll try and shorten the list and edit at a later date..

    Do you ever regret being part of the clubbing lifestyle and its various excesses?
    I've never been a person thats into loads of drink.. and I've never submitted my body to any drugs.
    Don't get me wrong.. I've have a few daylong sessions in my time but nothing that would actually make me regret living the lifestyle that I live. In general I lead a pretty healthy lifesytle, I try to eat as healthy as possible and am a frequent user of my local gym.

    Clubbing is clubbing.. I enjoy doing it on the rare occasion that I actually get to do it..

    Where is the next place you want to go in the world? Why?
    Possibly Tokyo or NYC.
    I've already been to NYC but its a great place and would love to revist, especially to see how 9/11 has effected things over there.
    I'm fascinated by the oriental lfestyle.. I wouldn't just shorten a trip to Japan to soley focus on Tokyo. I would like to see the outer cities\towns of japan and get a real feeling and viewing of the way they live life there.

    Whats your biggest talent?
    I haven't discovered it yet.
    As an academic talent it will be located somewhere within the area of IT, I feel I'm talented at system analysis and general consultanty type work. I also strangely enjoy that side of IT business.
    As a general talent.. I'm also good at making people laugh. However I use sarcastic wit.. therefore some people take offence to it. And I suppose I'm good at comforting people and reassuring them that things will be ok.

    What was the last book you read?
    With the exception of any form of eductational literature, The Guv'nor. Its a autobiography of the life of the legendary bareknuckle fighter Lenny Mclean.

    What is the book your reading now?
    I haven't properly sat down and read a novel for ages. I'm looking at purchasing The Da Vinci Code soon though.. might wanna read the predecessor first though :)

    Do you like your job? Why?
    If this question was asked a few months ago then the answer woulda been a massive "no". I've now got a whole different look on this job.
    I work in a family business as a Overhead Crane Electrician. Its a pretty dangerous job.. messing about with 415V at heights of up to 110ft (thats the highest I've been.. wasn't nice either!). If one thing goes wrong then there is a high chance you'll die, or atleast get very heavily injured. It comes with a sense of achievement though.. as I work for my dad, in a environment that I swore I would never work in, and seem to be doing well. It alsmost feels like I'm paying him back for the years of support he has given me.

    Whats your biggest dream or aspiration?
    I simply want myself and everyone around me to be happy. Success is a massive dream but other peoples happiness brings so much more..

    Next year - what would you like to achieve?
    Having just bought my own place I want to be moved in and setting up home. I would like to finsh my HNC and top it up to a HND so I'm ready to start looking into a degree style qualification.
    I would also like to see myself establishing myself more at work.

    Do you drive? What car?
    Yes, I drive a Peugot 106 (T reg). Its a decent car.. gets me from a - b. Looking into something new for the future.

    What is the TV show you watch the most?
    I don't actually have a TV in my room.. I have been addicted to Lost Season 2 and Prison Break.. both of which are watchable via an internet connection ;)

    How much water do you drink a day?
    Not enough. I find myself drinking more fruit juice then anything else.
    If I do have water then it'll be no more than 1 per day.

    I've been brutally honest with my answers.. Its just how I feel at the moment.
