10 Random Things

[Brandt]

Violet - 2. I already know what my answer will be if a fairy of genie grants me a wish- to have a painless death :D

Not to impose myself on the privat Human-Faerie/Genie relations, but are you sure you have thought that through ?
Would'nt it be better to wish never to age, become invincible, or maybe uaffected by pain ?
Not to be too sinister, but a painless death you can grant yourself with a bottle of tequila and a handgun.. (Tequila for courage ;)

Besides, knowing how genies tend to grant wishes in the most unfortunate ways, you could risk that it granted you your wish instantly..
So i would really consider the frasing of that wish carefully if i where you :P

lol, I agree with the phrasing part, i have to think my words carefully but otherwise i do want a painless death.
Nah, i know that immortality is not always a good thing and well as for never ageing, well then who and how will i marry if i always look 15? :D and i wont be able to live a normal (as normal as possible if i've met a fairy/genie) life, aaand i want to be a human and live a human life. And i cant think of any other wish as i am perfectly happy with the life i have :)
And the one thing i've learnt by reading books?-power does not come for free.
oh and when i said i want a painless death, i was thinking about the most horrible ways of dying- like drowning,being tortured to death, etc., which was why i wanted a painless death you see. (and lol, i am not suicidal)

[Vikki]

1: I have a bad tendancy to pick up other peoples accents - especially Scottish, American or Canadian. I lapse into a Scottish accent without even noticing sometimes - even if I've not heard the accent. I did read somewhere that it means you're in tune with people if you pick up their accent.

2: I love snow, even though it often means I get snowed in. The more the better - I just wish we got more here!

3: I'm very cynical about "love" which is mostly because of 1 person.

4: I have a very competitive streak. Especially with what I call my "band stuff". Ok is not good enough. I can be my own biggest critic. And when it comes to learning new stuff, I want to be the first to have it off, and have it right.

5: Speaking of band stuff... I'm in a pipe band. I have taken part in competitions since 1995. It's easily my biggest obsession. Any guy who comes into my life will just have to accept that. It's the thing that keeps me sane (or as close to sane as I can claim to be).

6: I describe my bedroom as organised chaos. BUT when I was working as a legal executive my files were perfectly tidy, as was my desk. Everything had a place, everything was in it's place and it was anything but chaotic.

7: I hog the duvet... a lot. I love wrapping myself up in as much of it as possible.

8: I'm not a morning person - I'm a night owl! I just don't function right first thing in the morning. In my last job I was in the office at 7.30 each morning - the only reason I wasn't lil miss grumpy was because I'd spent 1 hour on the road and had time to wake up a bit more.

9: I prefer texting to phonecalls. In fact a ringing phone can irritate me quite quickly. I blame that on having to deal with people in work who kept ringing when they didn't need to.

10: My inner child still exists. I love classic disney films, and kids tv shows from the very late 80s / early 90s. Retrojunk and youtube are good to feed that habit!

I know what you're talking about with the accents! It's especially bad when I'm with my friends parents and I hear their Indian accent and I unconsciously lapse into an Indian accent as well!
