So without any further ado - here are the 11 questions that I promise I have answered truthfully....

  1. 1. What do you wish your parents had named you?

    Does Stephen sound good? I feel like Stephen would suit me.

    2. What is your favourite way to eat toast?

    Um...with my mouth?

    3. Who is the scariest person you know in real life?

    Well I don't want to offend her by commenting on her blog...shit

    4. If you had to choose between jandals and sandals forever which would you pick and why?

    Definitely jandals. As a Kiwi, this was not a hard choice.

    5. Ice cream or cream?

    Ice cream, without a doubt.

    6. How do you like your eggs in the morning?

    People can afford eggs in the morning???

    7. What do you wish your partner/bestie knew about you?

    Nothing that I can think of. I am a pretty open person.

    8. Which song defines today for you?

    Billionaire by Bruno Mars??

    9. Which movie would you like to live in?

    Either Hunger Games, Harry Potter or Step Up. Why? Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Watson and Alison Stoner. Can I live in a mixture of all three?

    10. Why does the smell of baking make you feel at home?

    Hungry. Simple.

    11. What should you be doing instead of answering these questions?

    Getting ready for bed? Practicing violin? Exercise? Anything?

  2. 1. What do you wish your parents had named you?
    Something more unique. I am never the only Michael in the room, and my Google ranking is just plain miserable.

    Of course then there's 13 years of school ...

    2. What is your favourite way to eat toast?

    Toasted & buttered Sourdough topped with poachies, hollandaise and chives.

    If that's not an option, Vogels and Marmite.

    3. Who is the scariest person you know in real life?

    Cat Connor

    4. If you had to choose between jandals and sandals forever which would you pick and why?

    Sandals.

    I'd be happy never to wear jandals again. That rubber bit digging in between my toes, flimsy material, and no heel or arch support. They're just plain unsafe for any locale or situation. They should be banned outright! Tossed into a fiery pit and melted down into something useful!

    Sorry ... jandals get to me sometimes.

    5. Ice cream or cream?

    Ice cream! But no so much now. Kinda intolerant. :(

    6. How do you like your eggs in the morning?

    See 2!

    7. What do you wish your partner/bestie knew about you?

    I screw up. A lot.

    8. Which song defines today for you?

    The Smashing Pumpkins - Today

    9. Which movie would you like to live in?

    Toy Story. Who wouldn't want to live in a world of walking, talking children's toys?

    Now that I write that out, it is a little creepy ...

    10. Why does the smell of baking make you feel at home?

    Growing up we helped with baking in the kitchen, donning our aprons, and licking the beaters.

    11. What should you be doing instead of answering these questions?

    Actual writing!
