    More things

    From Koala.

    1. What is your alcoholic beverage of choice?

    Generally I drink to be sociable, and drink what other people are drinking. Boring.

    2. So far, what has been your favourite part of the Bible?

    I have only read Genesis and Exodus so far. I think my favourite story was Jacob and Esau just because it was so weird.

    3. As one of the weirdest people I know, what do you think is the weirdest thing about you?

    I think the weirdest thing about me is my weird phobia things. Like not liking it when people see my clothes when I am not in them. Man, that is so weird.

    4. In the past you have expressed your desire to go to the opera. Please explain a little more about this desire.

    I have heard that it is fun, and it seems like an interesting thing to do. I have enjoyed opera music that I have heard, and would like to do the listening to opera thing properly!

    5. What is your favourite movies from the in 80's (if you remember any of them).

    The only movie I can remember seeing during the 80s is the Care Bear movie. It was pretty scary. I have seen other movies from the 80s, but I don't remember seeing them when they were new.

    and Cup of Tea.

    1. What's so good about mornings?

    I feel like my brain works properly in the morning. The world is peaceful, particularly before sunrise, and there is a whole day ahead!

    Because there's the whole rest of the day, and it's a time that other people are still asleep, I often feel like the early hours of weekend mornings are times when I only have to do things I want to do. That sounds like procrastination, but I don't think it is. It's a declaration that this time belongs to me alone, and I can choose to waste or spend it however I wish. Interestingly, this sometimes leads to be doing things I have been putting off doing at other times.


    2. Do you prefer things to be planned or spontaneous?

    Yes. And also No.

    I think I like things to be planned, and for things to happen the way that I have planned. I find it very difficult to handle things when my plans are disrupted, or when things happen that I don't expect. It is probably one of the things which upsets me the most, actually.

    Thus, spontaneous things are often easier to deal with because I expect the unexpected.

    3. What is your story about?

    I don't think I can tell you, without spoiling it. :/

    I will try.

    My story is about... stuff. There are people and things happen.

    My story is about the resolution of misunderstandings.

    My story is about moments so perfect that they hurt.

    4. How important do you think humour is to life?

    I think that if I didn't have humour in my life, I would not be me. I can imagine that for other people, humour may not be so vital to their existance. So I am not sure how important it is to life in general.

    I am not sure how important it is to my life even, it is something that is so much a part of me that, as I said above, I would not be me without it.

    I don't think of myself as necessarily a funny person, although people have told me so. My favourite flavour of humour is anti-humour, after all, and I find it immensely entertaining to market myself as not being funny.

    I used to try to be funny, but these days I find it funnier to try not to be.

    5. Tell me about an experience you have had, or something you have seen, that you considered beautiful.

    Almost every time I watch the sunrise I am awed by how beautiful it is. It helps that it's my favourite time of day. I am almost always alone and I am torn between knowing that my experience wouldn't be the same if someone else were there, and feeling so overwhelmed by the moment that it is almost physically painful and I wish that someone was there so that I could share it.

    Oh look, one comment! :)

    Perhaps that question should have been "Can I read your story?" instead of "What is your story about?" :)
