11 questions from heart-mind, who gave me such a nice inbox surprise aaa <3

1.  If you could rate your happiness from 1 to 10 where 1 is the worst you’ve ever felt and 10 is the best, how would you rate your current happiness?  

A 3 on a bad day and a 5 on a good day, it’s not been a good couple of months. Next week will be better! I’m going to the Maldives!

2.  How many pets have you had, if you’ve had pets?

I’ve lost count! Three that I’ve been old enough to remember and really cherish, all cats, 2 living.

3.  How many countries have you visited/lived, if you’ve gone to other countries?

19 as of now, hopefully at least 21 if you ask me this question again next year. I’m fortunate enough that my parents have the travel bug, and took my brother and I along with them on a lot of vacations. Plus I went to uni in Australia, and live in Singapore, with easy (and affordable!) access to lots of countries in south east Asia. 

4.  What is one word that describes you?

This is really tough, I’m super verbose, but for the last year I think the word would’ve been PROCASTINATION, in giant sky writing.

5.  Are you introverted or extroverted?

Introverted for sure.

6.  What is your ideal vacation?

My ideal vacation is one where I don’t have to spend too much money on flights and accommodation, in a place where I’m fluent in the language (or can at least understand key words), where I can indulge in both shopping and photography, and have access to internet everywhere I go. I have basically taken this ideal vacation in Seoul three times in the past four years and have to stop myself now because my dream vacation is a Safari-Sardine run two hit combo on my wallet that I have to start saving up for. South Africa 2014!

7.  What do you blog about the most?

Oh man. Doctor Who and Sherlock, for sure, although ever since I started this “don’t post anything until you’ve made something to post” goal for myself, I haven’t really been posting at all.

8.  What is the best thing that happened to you in 2012?

Participating in Party When Dead, for sure, because I met so many great people I still keep in touch with to this day. Picking up the ukulele as well, because I’ve always been kinda sad that I couldn’t play any of the instruments I’ve tried to get good at, and now I’m actually good at one and am teaching it to my friends even. It’s really great!

9.  What are you most proud of?

I, to paraphrase Benedict Cumberbatch, wish I could say I am most proud of being a mother. Since I can’t, I’m most proud of the fact that I’m not dead. It was touch and go there, a couple of times this year I had the note ready to go and everything, but I didn’t want to be selfish, so. Here I still am. Can’t get rid of me. 

10.  What is a quote you really like?

“You never know what’s around the corner. It could be everything. Or it could be nothing. You keep putting one foot in front of the other, and then one day you look back and you’ve climbed a mountain.” - Tom Hiddleston

It’s just a really great quote to live by, because a lot of life is just putting one foot in front of the other wondering if there’s any point to it.

11.  Celebrity crush?

Mmmmm gosh I wonder who it could be.
