|
Do
you like to sing in the shower ? |
Sometimes I’ll find myself singing a little ditty for no
reason – sometimes I’m in the shower, sometimes I’m
not. If I get a song stuck in my
head, generally speaking, I’ll sing it. |
|
Do
you like to sing in the toilet ? |
Ahh… That’s the one exception to the above rule. It’s a little too odd to sing in the toilet, in my
humble opinion. No offence to
those who do, but that sorta thing just creeps me
out. |
|
Where
do you live ? |
Planet Earth. |
|
Righty or lefty ? |
I’m left-handed. |
|
What
do you want out of a relationship ? |
I want to be with someone who cares about me and loves me for
who I am, someone I can have a lot of fun with and be myself with, someone
who respects me… and of course someone who makes me laugh, someone who
makes me feel safe and all warm when I’m in their arms. |
|
Have
you ever cheated on someone ? |
|
|
Marital
status |
Long term relationship |
|
Do
you have a car |
Yeah, I have a 1962 Ferrari 250 GT California convertible. It’s red, it’s sexy and
it’s mine, mine, all mine, woohoo !!! Just
kidding… I wish… But I have two cars – an 80s model Corolla
(that my boyfriend bought me for Christmas !!! I’m so lucky !!!) and a
totally gorgeous |

|

all their DVDs. The Simpsons

|
Favourite Disney characters |
Dumbo, Lilo,
Stitch, Boo, Ariel, Tinkerbell (mainly because she
reminds me so much of my sister) |
|
Favourite colour |
Pink (like anybody could tell !) |
|
Do
you want to get married ? |
Not right at this very instant, but yes I would one day,
absolutely ! |
|
Do
you prefer summer or winter ? |
They both have their good and bad points, but I’d have to
say winter because at least you can rug up and keep warm, whereas in summer,
staying cool is a constant effort. |
|
You
know I’m around when you hear… |
… a completely useless fact that is of no benefit to
anyone. |
|
What
school do you go to ? |
Oh, I’ve finished school. I’m doing a psychology course
via correspondence. |
|
Do
you take drugs ? |
|
|
What’s
a major turn on |
A beautiful, genuine smile (which my boyfriend has ! :P) |
|
Who
do you trust and are most open with ? |
Probably my sister.
She is my rock. And I can
talk to my boyfriend about anything.
I am a very guarded person and I don’t trust people easily, but
I trust those two people in my life very much. |
|
What
do you think of soul mates ? |
I believe in them. I’m
a bit of a hopeless romantic like that. |
|
Is
it right to flirt if you have a boyfriend / girlfriend ? |
Definitely not ! |
|
What
is an object you can’t live without ? |
My PlayStation 2 and my laptop. |
|
Where
do you want to go on your honeymoon ? |
I don’t know yet.
|
|
What
makes you happy ? |
Being with people I care about, and / or doing something I love
doing, obviously. |
|
Do
you wear glasses or contacts ? |
I lost my old pair of glasses three or four years ago but
I’m getting some cute new ones soon ! |
|
What’s
the best advice given to you ? |
Nobody’s given me the best advice I’ve ever gotten
yet. |
|
Have
you ever won any special awards ? |
Yes, I won a poetry competition in primary school when I was
five; and another when I was in grade 10. |
|
What
are your future goals ? |
To be happy and achieving my dreams. |
|
Which
do you prefer – funny or scary movies ? |
Funny movies… I don’t like scary movies at all ! |
|
Which
do you prefer – talking on the phone or talking in person ? |
Definitely talking in person. I don’t really like talking on
the phone all that much. To me
it’s a tool of convenience rather than conversation. Having said that, my boyfriend and I
talk on the phone for ages when we don’t get to see each other that
day. |
|
What
song seems to reflect you the most ? |
Rhiannon by Fleetwood Mac,
because that’s my name.
Yes, I know. Very original
and creative choice. |
|
Last
time you talked to the guy you like ? |
Well, the guy I like is actually the guy I love – my
boyfriend – and we’re talking on MSN right now ! |
|
Do
you have any pets ? |
Yup – three cats named |
|
Last
time you were depressed |
I just found out that Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley and Orlando
Bloom wouldn’t be providing the voices for their Pirates of the Caribbean characters in the upcoming Kingdom Hearts 2 game. Sniff! It just won’t be the same ! |
|
Are
you an alcoholic ? |
No, I don’t drink at all. Seriously ! |
|
What’s
your shoe size ? |
I can never tell that, but I think I’m a size seven. |
|
What
is your ideal job? |
I have always wanted to be an actress. |
|
What
is your favourite drink ? |
A nice cup of tea. |
|
What’s
your favourite place in the world ? |
Mooloolaba on |
|
What’s
your favourite season ? |
I don’t know, I like all the seasons… I like autumn
because of the colours of nature (if you’re
ever going to visit |
|
What’s
your favourite word ? |
I go through phases where I develop favourite
words and use them constantly until I find a new one to take the old
word’s place. When I was a
little girl it was ‘ |
|
Favourite type of music |
Since I was very young I’ve always had a taste for a wide
range of music genres. But I love
rock music. There is nothing more
wonderful than listening to rock music with a good bass turned up loud. Anybody who loves rock music like I do
will know exactly what I mean. |
|
Have
you ever broken the law ? |
Not that I know of.
I’m a good girl ! |
|
Have
you ever been in a fist fight ? |
A few brief little spats with my sister when we were younger and
less mature, nothing serious. She
broke my nose with a Barbie doll and made it permanently crooked, I hit her
repeatedly on the back with a McHappy Meal Snoopy
figurine. Nowadays, we’re
the best of friends. |
|
Where
were you born ? |
|
|
Do
you believe in God ? |
Yes, I am a Christian.
If you want to know a really good site, visit Christian
Answers. It’s a
great place to go if you need some guidance. But for the real answers, nothing
beats the Bible. |
|
Do
you believe in aliens ? |
I don’t think it’s fair to assume that out of all
the planets in all the galaxies in all the universe, we are the only planet
that supports life. I mean,
they’ve proven that maybe – just maybe – there aren’t any species of life in this
solar system, but our solar system is a tiny, tiny blip in the universe. So, in answer to this question, I do
believe – to a certain extent – that God has created alien life
somewhere out there, but I honestly don’t think it would bother itself
with us. |
|
What
do you most like about your body ? |
I like my eyes. |
|
Do
you remember when Nickelodeon was good ? |
I only had Nickelodeon for a short while when I was 11 years
old, but my grandparents have Foxtel, and watching
Nickelodeon nowadays, I was really disappointed – it’s just not
the same ! I used to love
watching their game shows, and Clarissa
Explains It All, The Adventures of
Pete & Pete and all those really wacky shows; and I used to sit up
with my family on Saturdays and watch Nick at Night. I also didn’t mind the cartoons
– |
|
What’s
your favourite animal ? |
I love horses, dogs, cats, whales, dolphins, sharks and polar
bears. Oh, and koalas ! |
|
What’s
your favourite play ? |
My school did a production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and that was the most incredibly
funny, amazing rendition of Shakespeare’s play that I have ever
seen. It was better than the
movie. I really love all of Shakespeare’s
works; The Crucible by Arthur
Miller; Rosencrantz & Guildenstern
Are Dead; and I also really like a short one-act play called Rinse the Blood off My Toga which is a
parody of the play Julius Caesar. |
|
What’s
your favourite book ? |
I have a lot of those, because I have a passionate love for the
written word. My favourites are: Gone
With the Wind – Margaret Mitchell; The Bridges of Madison County – Robert Waller; The Glass House and The Dark Dream – Lilly Sommers; the Lord
of the Rings trilogy – J. R. R. Tolkien;
the Harry Potter books by J. K.
Rowling; The Hitchhiker’s Guide
to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams; and Janet Evanovich’s
Stephanie Plum series. Oh, and
most important book of all – the Bible ! |
|
What
is the funniest thing you have ever seeen ? |
Oh, I have seen a great many funny things in my life but
they’re long winded things that need explaining, however, I will tell
you that a lot of those situations involve my father. For example, just the other day, he
fell into the pool fully clothed wearing a ridiculous sombrero hat. |
|
Do
you like your life ? |
I do indeed. I am a very
lucky woman and God has blessed me abundantly. He has given me a roof over my head,
food in my cupboard, friends, family and a boyfriend who love me. |
|
What
is your most embarrassing moment ? |
I’ve had I’ve had so many of those that it would be
impractical (and shameful) to list them all here. Choking on a pencil in front of a cute
guy ranks very highly on my ‘crawl-into-a-hole’ scale. The other one would be accidentally
walking into the wrong hotel room and both frightening and angering the
guests in that suite. |
|
Did
you like the Back to the Future
series ? |
Yeah, I loved them, but I didn’t like the third one as
much as the others. |
|
Do
you speak another language besides English? |
No. I know a few German
words (the last remnants of my study of the subject in years 9 & 10); and
I would love to learn Spanish and Welsh – they’re such beautiful
sounding languages. |
|
How
easy is it to make you laugh ? |
Very easy. I love
laughing. Laughing is one of my favourite things in the world to do. |
|
Do
you ever dance when nobody’s watching ? |
Of course I do – that’s the best time ! I dance like a frog in a washing
machine, so it’s probably best if nobody’s watching. |
|
When
eating, are you more concerned with the taste of the food, or its health
factor ? |
I used to be more concerned about taste, but my body grew so
grossly unhealthy. I’ve
started to make myself eat
healthy food, and I’ve developed a taste for it. I don’t like to eat a lot of
junk food now, because I know how great my body can be if I feed it the right
foods. I like a little indulgence
now and again though ;-) ! |
|
Mac
or PC ? |
PC of course ! |
|
Have
people ever told you that you look like a celebrity, and if so, who do they
say you look like ? |
Wow, I’ve been told I look like so many celebrities, many
of whom I can’t even begin to speculate how people came to such a
conclusion. The most way out one
I’ve been compared to is Kate Winslet, and I
am constantly getting told that I
look like an older version of Emma Watson who plays Hermione in the Harry Potter movies. I don’t share that opinion at
all, but people are always telling me that I look like her. My mother also thinks I bear a slight
resemblance to Audrey Hepburn. So
there you go. Take your pick. |
|
Ever
thought there were too many numbers floating around in our lives ? |
Yes.
Absolutely. Numbers are a
nuisance. If it weren’t for
numbers, there wouldn’t be Maths, and if it
weren’t for Maths, I probably could have
avoided a whole lotta ulcers in my lifetime. |
|
How
good is your short term memory ? |
Terrible. Absolutely
horrendous. Whatever I have to
remember: homework, assignments, phone numbers, messages, advice, poetry,
etc, etc in the short term instantly flies out of my brain. By contrast, my long term memory is
brilliant. I can remember things
happening when I was little more than two years old. Conversations, moments, days,
they’re all there. |
|
What
is your earliest memory ? |
My earliest memories include going to a Care Bears exhibit in
the mall when I was very, very little; watching an entire fleet of hot air balloons
in all shapes and sizes land in the paddock at the back of our yard; and
going on a picnic with family and family friends to a beautiful playground
near the lake. |
|
Which
movies make you cry ? |
Well, it’s really embarrassing, but if I watch Titanic, I can’t help but
cry. I also cried the whole way
through Lord of the Rings: The Return
of the King. And cried from
start to finish in The Passion of the
Christ. Ned Kelly made me cry as well, and so did Big Fish. Some others
I can think of off the top of my head are: Young Guns II; Ever After and Meet
Joe Black. That Adam Sandler movie, Click
made me cry, too. And pretty much
all the Disney movies made me cry, too. |
|
Which
books make you cry ? |
The Bridges of
Madison County had me absolutely bawling my eyes out. Others that made me cry to a lesser
extent were Gone With the Wind and The Glass House. |
|
Which
song makes you cry ? |
Into the West by Annie Lennox
– it’s the song from Lord
of the Rings: Return of the King.
Just when I thought I was going to get a break from crying in that
movie, the credits rolled and the song came on and I started up all over
again. The whole crying thing is
horrible. I must learn not to be
so damned emotional ! |
|
Would
you like to be cloned ? |
No way ! I think
cloning is a terrible idea !
It’s playing God. It
isn’t right. I mean, I
realize we’re an intelligent species and all, but sometimes I think we
go too far. I do believe in
stem-cell research, though. |
|
Scaramouche, scaramouche, will do the fandango
? |
Sure, why not. |
|
When
was the last time you let the people you love know that you love them ? |
I tell those people every opportunity I get. I make sure that they
know I love them, that they never have any doubts. When someone in my family
leaves the house, or I say goodbye to them on the telephone, or when I leave
the house, or when they go to bed – whenever there’s a goodbye,
there’s an I love you to go with it. Likewise, whenever someone does
something nice for me, there’s an I love you to go with that as well;
and whenever I do something for somebody I love, it’s to tell them that
I love them. To me that is one of the most important things in life –
telling somebody you love that you love them. Too many people don’t
realize that. |
|
What
would you like to change your name to ? |
Actually, I’m very happy with my name. I was fortunate to
get a beautiful name and I love it. If my name was anything else and I had to
change it, I would probably change it to Rhiannon. |
|
What
TV show describes your life ? |
The Simpsons. |
|
When
you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up ? |
An actress. That
hasn’t changed. |
|
What
3 CDs would you want if you were stuck on a deserted island ? |
Hmm… My Pulp Fiction
CD, my Reservoir Dogs CD and my Final Fantasy CD. I’d also make sure there was a
CD player on that island first. |
|
Who
is your role model? |
Audrey Hepburn had such style and grace. And there is a very special friend of
mine who is very spiritual and has a great relationship with God and Jesus
Christ, and I would love to be so close to God. |
|
A
genie offers you three wishes.
What are they ? |
1. For the happiness
of the people I love. 2. World peace (you just gotta say
world peace). 3. For a beautiful house on a beautiful farm. |
|
Have
you ever had a dream, and then that exact same thing happens in real life,
i.e. déjà vu ? |
Oh yeah, it’s happened to me quite a few times. The dreams
are very rarely important – usually they are just meaningless scenes
that replay themselves before me in waking life a few days later. But there
has been a time when I’ve dreamed something that has come true… it
was actually rather creepy. |
|
Have
you ever seriously wished upon a star ? |
I used to, but not anymore.
I pray now, for strength and courage to achieve my dreams. |
|
Would
you ever get a tattoo ? If so,
where? |
No I wouldn’t get a tattoo because I have a low pain
threshold, but if I did get a
tattoo, I’d get a redback spider on my foot
in the exact same place that I was bitten by one a few years ago. |
|
For
you, what’s your biggest turn off in the opposite sex ? |
Disrespect and being unappreciative, as well as a lack of a
sense of humor and the inability to listen. |
|
Who
was your first boyfriend ? |
His name was Mitchell and I’d known him since we were
quite young. The relationship
only lasted a few days because I felt like it just didn’t work. |
|
What
are your hobbies? |
Painting, reading, writing, drawing, watching movies, scrapbooking. |
|
What’s
your favourite sport to play ? |
I don’t like playing sport. I’ve never been sporty.
I’ve never been good at it, and I’ve never really enjoyed it.
Having said that, I don’t mind horse riding, and I don’t mind
swimming, but I don’t do either of those competitively. |
|
What’s
your favourite sport to watch ? |
Horse racing and rugby league… Sometimes I’ll watch
a bit of the Olympics when it’s on, if I’m in the mood. |
|
What’s
your favourite holiday ? |
Christmas ! It
spreads love and joy through the world ! |
|
Who
is your favourite cartoon character ? |
Well, apart from the Disney ones I mentioned above, my favourites are Betty Boop,
Roger & Jessica Rabbit, Bugs Bunny, Marvin the Martian, the Animaniacs and Johnny Bravo. Oh, and Stewie
Griffin from Family Guy. |
|
Favourite video games |
Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy X and Final
Fantasy X-2. |
|
Favourite board game |
Cluedo (and, I know it sounds childish, but
I have to be Miss Scarlett or I won’t play !) |
|
Favourite breakfast food |
Crumpets ! |
|
What’s
your favourite nail polish colour
? |
Well I don’t usually wear nail polish because my nails are
a real mess, but I have a nail polish by Avon that is a really lovely type of
candy pink, called |
|
What’s
your favourite pick up line ? |
Hehehe, there are a couple that just crack
me up. They probably
wouldn’t work on me, but they make me laugh anyway. There’s is that a ladder in your stocking or a stairway to Heaven ? and
my personal favourite Hi, I’m Mr. Right, I heard you were looking for me ? |
|
What’s
your favourite quote ? |
I have quite a few of those. See my Quotes page for details. |
|
How
long does it take you to go out ? |
It takes a bare minimum of twenty minutes. |
|
If
you could be an animal for one day, what would you be ? |
A killer whale.
They’re at the top of the aquatic food chain, and they get to
muck about in the water all day. |
|
Do
you talk to yourself? |
Not regularly. |
|
What
are you thankful for ? |
I’m thankful to God and Jesus Christ, and for all of their
blessings. I’m thankful for
my friends and family and for their love. I’m thankful for having such a beautiful,
caring boyfriend who is also my best friend. I’m thankful for life itself,
and my general good health; and I’m thankful to be living in a country
free of war and famine and plagues of illness *touch wood*. There
are so many things to be thankful for. |
|
Do
you believe in fate? |
To an extent, but I don’t rely on it. I believe that God has everything
planned according to His Will, but I think he expects us to help make it
happen sometimes. |
|
Do
you get along with your parents ? |
Yeah I do, 95% of the time.
Sometimes we don’t see eye-to-eye, but you know… it
happens. |
|
What
have you learned about love ? |
To quote the Bible, I Corinthians 13:4-8: ‘Love is
patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way;
it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices
in the right. Love bears all
things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends; as for prophecies, they
will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease, as for knowledge, it will
pass away.’ I have certainly found this to be true in my experience with
love. |
|
If
you were swimming at the beach, and you saw a tidal wave coming, what would
you do ? |
Hold my breath and swim for my life, even though I realize that
that probably wouldn’t do me very much good. |
|
Would
you rather have a McDonalds or a Subway outlet in your house ? |
Subway, because it tastes nicer and is probably a lot better for
me. |
|
If
you saw a celebrity walking down the street, what would be your first
reaction ? |
You know what, I’d probably be too scared to say
anything. In fact, I’d
probably be in such disbelief that it was them that I’d just stare at
them, wondering if it is them, until they were gone and it was too late to
say anything. |
|
If
you could invite any celebrities you liked to a dinner party, who would you
invite ? |
Robin Williams, Billy Connolly, Johnny Depp,
Viggo Mortensen, Mel Gibson, Quentin Tarantino,
Drew Barrymore and John Cleese. Quite a jumbled mix there. I wonder how they’d all get
along…? |
|
Are
you confident when it comes to public speaking ? |
It’s funny, when I’m acting and performing on stage
in the role of someone else, I’m fine. But when it comes to public
speaking, as myself, I’m an absolute mess ! You want to see a basket
case, just take a look at me five minutes before I have to go and make a
speech in front of everyone. Luckily once I’m up there I’m so
determined to get it over and done with that I don’t mess around or
stutter, so you can’t really tell as a rule. |
|
What’s
your favourite ice cream flavour
? |
Cookie dough; Honeycomb; Tiramisu or Licorice. |
|
If
you could kiss anyone in the world, who would it be ? |
Why, my boyfriend !
Seriously ! |
|
Favourite childhood cartoon ? |
Care Bears of course. |
|
What
did you hate most about school ? |
The question is: what didn’t I hate about school. I hated
it. I hated it from the moment I walked in there, and after my first day of kindy I was sick of the sight of it. |
|
What’s
under your bed? |
Boxes of crap (not literally). |
|
What’s
the weather like? |
Cold. It’s
nighttime. |
|
If
you could be anybody in the world, who would you be ? |
Me, coz nobody else can do the job quite like I can ! |
|
What
makes you cry ? |
A lot, really.
I’m a very emotional person. I cry when I’m happy, I cry when
I’m sad. |
|
What
makes you angry ? |
Bullies and meanies. |
|
When
you get mad, do you swear a lot ? |
I do. I’m trying
to hard to cut down but sometimes there just don’t seem to be other
suitable words in the vernacular to express my frustration. |
|
Do
you have a Magic 8 ball ? |
Yes I do, from when I was a kid. I don’t use it anymore. I always wanted to take one of those
things apart and see what’s inside ? |
|
Do
you like little kids? |
On a case-by-case basis. |
|
Is
it okay to swear ? |
No, it’s very, very bad, kiddies. But I swear because I
started years ago and now I can’t stop. It’s like a runaway
train. So take it from me: if you don’t usually swear, don’t
start now ! Get out while you’re young and innocent ! |
|
Do
you keep up on current events ? |
Yeah, I mean, I’m not a walking-talking newspaper, but I
don’t live under a rock, either. |
|
Is
there too much violence on TV ? |
Oh yeah, absolutely; but I think kids are impacted more by the
violence and hatred in the world around them than the violence on TV. Art
imitates life, after all. |
|
Is
it right to spank a kid if they’ve been really naughty ? |
Of course it is. It’s not all right to flog the crap out
of them, but a good slap on the butt when they’ve been bad never did
anybody a bit of harm. I think one of the problems with teens today (I sound
like an old fart!!!) is that they have too many rights and not enough
responsibility. They’ve been brought up in an age where they
aren’t disciplined enough and it’s working out worse for them in
the long run because they don’t know their place in the world;
they’ve got a problem with authority which makes them choke in a lot of
areas in life, because they’ve never had to take discipline before. |

What
do you think about plastic surgery ? |
I don’t believe in it, actually. All respect to those who
do, that’s their business and their bodies and their choice, so power
to them. But personally, I think that God saw fit to make me the way He made
me; and if it’s good enough for God, it’s good enough for me.
However, I think if you’ve been in an accident or similar and as a result
something has happened to drastically mar your appearance and your lifestyle
and your quality of life, reconstructive surgery is certainly okay. |
|
What
makes you like a commercial the most ? |
How funny it is.
Generally speaking, I don’t like ads that don’t make me
laugh, but there have been exceptions to the rule. |
|
What
usually keeps you up later than you should be ? |
Surfing the Net, playing PS2, listening to music, talking to my
boyfriend, or reading. |
|
What
was the saddest moment of your life to date ? |
The two saddest moments have been when my dogs died. The first was when I lost my dog Lady
after owning her for thirteen years.
The second was when I lost Bundy, the little dog that my boyfriend and
I had, in a tragic accident. It
was so sudden and unexpected.
I’m still going through the process of moving on. It really was like losing one of the
family. |
|
Do
you write in a journal or diary ? |
I try, but I keep getting myself out of the habit. |
|
Describe
the funniest part in a movie you’ve seen |
There’s this absolutely hysterical scene in Intolerable
Cruelty (it’s toward the end though so I don’t want to give too
much away), but it involves an assassin confusing a gun with an asthma
inhaler, and it’s truly one of the most hilarious things I’ve
ever seen. Another movie with a hilarious scene is Four Rooms (again, I won’t give too much away), in which a
dead prostitute, a fire, a syringe, a bell hop and two kids are involved. |
|
How
often does your room get a good clean up ? |
Not that often. I mean, I can go for a month without seeing the
floor. Everything has to be out of my cupboard and on my bedroom floor before
I’ll listen to my mum’s hysterical shouts to clean my room. |
|
What’s
the best book they made you read in school ? |
The Bridges of |
|
Favourite poem |
Oh, those are like movies, I have a lot of those. See my Poetry page, it will have
a sample of my favourites. |
|
Favourite musical |
I really loved The Rocky
Horror Picture Show. |
|
Favourite thing to do in summer |
Go swimming. |
|
If
someone stapled your mouth shut, would you still try to talk ? |
Yes. In fact, I
think I’d talk under water with a broken jaw and a mouthful of marbles. |
|
Can
you live without a microwave ? |
Are you kidding ?
When my parents both worked until late at night and I had to make my
own dinner, I’d probably have died of starvation without a microwave,
because, you see, I can’t cook.
I’d have microwave burgers, microwave pizzas… ah, those
were the days ! |
|
Do
you like stickers ? |
I love stickers ! |
|
Last
movie you saw in the cinema |
Pirates of the
Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest.
See my forum to read what I thought about it. |
|
Is
your hair straight, curly or wavy ? |
All of the above. |
|
Want
to live in a castle ? |
Of course I do ! One
of those big old ones that are hundreds upon hundreds of years old and
they’re tall and have towers and turrets and dungeons… Well the
dungeons wouldn’t be so cool, but I bet I could change them into
something less creepy… A garage to keep all my cars in, maybe. |
|
Do
you daydream a lot ? |
Yes. Some say too
much. |
|
What
does your name mean ? |
Go here for info. ‘Rhiannon’ is an old Welsh
name – it was the name of a goddess, and also the name of a princess in
the Welsh folklore book, the Mabinogion. |
|
Have
you ever read a Shakespearean play ? |
But of course ! I
love Shakespeare’s works.
My faves are Hamlet, Romeo & Juliet, and A Midsummer Night’s Dream. |
|
Do
you make up your own words sometimes ? |
Sure. Sometimes the
current dictionary just doesn’t quite cut it, you know ? My personal favourite
is ‘Shibadi’, which means anything
negative e.g. ‘No’, ‘Yuck’, ‘Damn’, etc. |
|
How
fast can you run ? |
As fast as a stoned snail. |
|
Do
we all go a little mad sometimes ? |
Are we ever sane ? |
|
Have
you ever built a snowman ? |
Yes, and I’ve also built a snow duck. I made a snowman,
but it was very, very little, and I thought, ‘It would look better as a
duckling.’ So I spent ages making little webbed feet for it, and I even
fashioned a little beak, and he looked just darling; when all of a sudden,
some lady came up and sat on him, squishing him to a melting pulp. I suppose
I shouldn’t have made my little snow duckie
on a bench, but still… he was sitting right beside me, and anyway,
couldn’t the lady have looked before she sat down ? I got very
emotional about my poor little snow duckie being
sat upon. |
|
Does
it snow where you live ? |
Sadly no, because it’s too warm. It’s a shame, because I love
snow. |
|
Do
you watch talk shows ? |
I watch Dr. Phil sometimes.
Dr. Phil is cool. |
|
What
colour do you see when you close your eyes ? |
A swirling vortex of black, grey and electric blue. |
|
What’s
your favourite kind of muffin ? |
Choc Chip muffins from Muffin Break. Mmmm…
chocolate… |
