Procrastination Questions aka don’t answer these unless you have a free hour

I was tagged by the lovely and amazing @bookwormchocaholic and @mariequitecontrarie thank you! 🙂

The last ? you had:
1) Drink:
Water
2) Phone call: Probably my mum but I’m not sure. Nobody ever calls me.
3) Text message: Oh this I can check! My new uni heh 🙂 reminding me about open day details a couple of months ago (people don’t text me either).
4) Song you listened to: Karazhan by Sharm
5) Time you cried: Last week I think but it wasn’t a big deal or anything

6) Dated someone twice: That would require dating someone in the first place
7) Kissed someone and regretted it: Kinda. My first and only kiss, it wasn’t good hence the kinda but at least my curiosity is satisfied I guess.
8) Been cheated on: Nope
9) Lost someone special: Yeah
10) Been depressed: That implies it’s only temporary. It’s a demon I’ve battled every day for years and years.
11) Gotten drunk and thrown up: Never touched a drop so no.

Favorite colors:
12) Blue
13) Gold
14) Grey

In the last year have you…
15) Made new friends: Possibly. I get fuzzy on dates and when I should start counting from. I was @little-inkstone santa and we’ve been chatting periodically ever since so would that be last year or this year?
16) Fallen out of love: Nope
17) Laughed until you cried: Not that I recall and I usually remember that because I hate it, it’s always so embarrassing.
18) Found out someone was talking about you: Kinda.
19) Met someone who changed you: I hadn’t really thought about it like that but yeah I guess so.
20) Found out who your friends are: That sounds sinister so nope.
21) Kissed someone on your Facebook list: Haha what a random question. I barely have anyone on my FB and I haven’t kissed anyone so nope.

General
22) How many of your Facebook friends do you know in real life?: Half. 6 real life, 6 people I met through my gaming guild years ago and my mum for lucky 13 contacts heh 🙂
23) Do you have any pets? Nope!
24) Do you want to change your name? Been there, done that, the paperwork was a pain. So I don’t want to because I already have.
25) What did you do for your last birthday? Went to the seaside with my mum, we played crazy golf. Then we went for a game of tenpin bowling, did a best out of three air hockey tournament before returning home and watching a movie. That’s quite often what we do for special occasions. It makes for good together time 🙂
26) What time did you wake up? Which time? There was about 2am, about 4am, then up for good about 6am. That was a good night, usually it’s way worse.
27) What were you doing at midnight last night? Well I’d been laying in bed for a couple of hours by then, so I think I’d just dropped off thankfully. Getting to sleep is such a battle.
28) Name something you can’t wait for: Uni to start next month! I just want to dive into my course! 🙂
29) When was the last time you saw your mum? About five minutes before I started these questions.
30) What are you listening to right now? I have my gaming genre on shuffle on iTunes. I don’t know why I just felt like it.
31) Have you ever talked to a person named Tom? Why the name Tom? Is that because everyone knows someone called Tom? Well it’s true I did. The last Tom I spoke to was someone I worked with. He was such a genuine guy, he was so down to earth and witty. I smiled getting his emails and his comments were always spot on. It was a pleasure to work with him and he was going places. He had talent and the drive to get there but he died a couple of months ago. He had one of those natural time bombs, nobody knew it was there, he was perfectly healthy and happy until his heart gave out. I’m still shocked to be honest. I didn’t know him well but why did such a thing have to happen to such a good guy? It’s just so not fair.
32) Something that is getting on your nerves: The persistent ache in my arm. It’s been acting up lately and I could really do without the chronic pain.
33) Most visited website: You are joking right? Tumblr of course heh
34) Hair color: Brown
35) Long or short hair? Short, it’s easier to manage that way. When I’m mentally and physically doing well I like to go swimming. I used to have long hair and I tried swimming with that and even tied up in a swimming cap it had a horrible habit of getting in my mouth, not to mention how long it took to dry. Short is just easier.
36) Do you have a crush on someone: Nope. I mean I aesthetically admire how attractive some celebrities are but I wouldn’t call that a crush as I don’t know them. I’ve never been attracted to anyone I’ve met in real life.
37) What do you like about yourself? Wow asking the hard questions here. Oh man I don’t know, not much, I guess I try and be a nice person. I like other people to be happy and I try and help with that if I can. I try and be there if people need things.
38) Piercings: Nope
39) Blood type: I don’t actually know. It’s not like it matters, I’ll never be able to give blood, it’s easier to get water from a stone.
40) Nickname: Well my full name is Samantha so I guess Sam is a nickname, or is that just a shortening? I’ve never been sure what nickname means. I suppose I did have one when I was gaming as people called me by my paladin’s name. I use that as a pseudonym now so I won’t share it.
41) Relationship status: Single.
42) Zodiac: Is that Taurus? I get confused about all these different things.
43) Pronouns: She/her.
44) Favorite TV show: Of all time? Stargate! (don’t make me choose between the three, though SG1 would probably edge it because Carter). Currently airing? Well *sigh* Once Upon a Time will always have a special place in my heart. It is so inspiring and it has given me so much. I am looking forward to season seven but to be honest a lot of my enjoyment comes from the fandom and what we take from the show, rather than what the show gives us. So if I’m being honest I have to say Agents of Shield. I love that show so much! I’m counting the days until season five and I’m keeping everything crossed already that they’ll be a season six. I just adore that show, I love everything about it!
45) Tattoos: Nope, I’ve never had anything that I can be sure I’ll still feel the same way about in 10 years. If I’m going to permanently mark my body, I need to be sure about it. Plus to be honest tattoos just aren’t my thing stylistically. I think some people look great with them but I don’t think I’m someone that would.
46) Right or left handed: Mostly right but I do some things with my left. Plus I can swap to my left if my arm gets tired, or at least I used to be able to do that. So I think I’m slightly ambidextrous.
47) Surgery: I had my knee done so that I could walk again without agony. I had four toes done because of severe ingrowing toenails (I know that’s gross). Nothing major though.
48) Sport: Nope. I do like swimming but only casually. When I’m feeling alright I like to regularly go and do half a mile or so of laps in the pool. There is a rock climbing social club at the university and I would love to join, but there’s no way I can with my arm. Maybe next year.
49) Holiday: NaNoWriMo! That’s a holiday right? 🙂
50) Pair of trainers: Sure I have a black pair of asics which I wear all the time as my shoes. I have a white pair of asics that I wear if I go to the gym. I have an old and battered pair of white asics that I wear for DIY/dirty chores.

More general:
51) Eating: What right now? Nothing. I had breakfast a while ago and that was yogurt. That’s also my favorite food if that’s what this is asking. I’m confused.
52) Drinking: Water as I finished my black coffee 🙁 maybe I’ll have to go make another.
53) I’m about to: What? I really don’t get what this is asking. Oh perhaps it’s what I’m going to do when I finish procrastinating with these questions, which are taking forever by the way. Well I do have writing to do so probably that.
54) Want: My arm to stop hurting would be nice. Also you know winning the lottery heh but if we’re in the bounds of realism, I’d like a UK broadcaster (preferably netflix) to pick up Inhumans. I saw it advertised at the cinema but there’s no point seeing the first episode in IMAX if I can’t see the rest for a year until the DVD is released.
55) Get married: Honestly not really. I just don’t feel the need for a relationship in my life. I wish certain people would understand that.
56) Career: Ideally I’d love to write books. That is possible, I mean with indie publishing, so long as I have some talent (I doubt this regularly) then with enough hard work and a good dollop of luck, it is possible to make a living. Otherwise? I really don’t know. I hope that the uni can help me with this.
57) Hugs or kisses: Neither. I like my personal space. Unless it’s my mum in which case hugs are welcome.
58) Lips or eyes: What a weird question, I mean they are body parts. I really don’t know. I’m notoriously bad at reading people’s expressions. They kinda work together to produce an effect.
59) Shorter or taller: Well being short does kinda suck. I mean short legs makes my butt look gigantic, I really hate it. Plus it’s so hard to reach anything.
60) Older or younger: Age is but a number. Oh wait these questions are taking a definite turn towards romance. So in that case neither. Although if we’re talking attractive celebrities, I mostly aesthetically appreciate those who are a bit older.
61) Nice arms or nice stomach: See this question tipped me off. I’m not sure it matters, I mean it’s the overall impression so arms and chest work together.
62) Hook up or relationship: Neither.
63) Troublemaker or hesitant: Hesitant for sure.
64) Kissed a stranger: My first and only kiss. I mean I knew his name so he wasn’t a total stranger but we had just met.
65) Drank hard liquor: Not touched a drop of any kind of alcohol so nope.
66) Lost glasses/contact lenses: I don’t think so
67) Turned someone down: Bizarrely yes. There was one time at school because I was sure it was a prank designed to humiliate me (I was right) and the second time with the guy I kissed. We exchanged numbers and he invited me to go over and ‘hang out’ which set off my alarm bells. That was also confirmed when I suggested meeting somewhere public and he stopped talking to me. I just laughed because I knew it.
68) Sex on the first date: Personally no I don’t think I would be comfortable with that.
69) Broken someone’s heart: Nope
70) Had your heart broken: Nope
71) Been arrested: Nope. Haha it’s quite funny actually. When I was at school we had a policeman come into our class for a talk. He asked for a volunteer to handcuff for a demonstration and one of my classmates said it should be me, as that would almost certainly be the only time I’d ever have handcuffs on. They were right, that is (thus far I guess) the only time. I struggled, trying to do moves I’d seen on the TV, and they tightened quite painfully. I mean obviously I did it wrong, clearly slipping handcuffs takes practice 🙂
72) Cried when someone died: Not initially but yes.
73) Fallen for a friend: Nope

Do you believe in …
74) Yourself:
Haha nope
75) Miracles: I wish but no
76) Love at first sight: I really want to say no because it doesn’t fit with how I see the world. I take a very long time to accept things and definitely to trust people. To me love is like the ultimate expression of trust. However, I’ve known it to happen twice. My grandparents got engaged two days after they met and were married for sixty years. My mum’s boyfriend moved in within a month of them meeting for the first time and they are now married. She’s very happy so I guess for other people it can happen.
77) Santa Claus: That would be fun wouldn’t it but no. I mean it could just never happen because if people saw unfamiliar presents under the tree they would freak about somebody having been in their house. Although I do like the answer that newspaper man gave when that child asked, about how the spirit of Santa is in all of us. That was nice and I do like to help people.
78) Kiss on the first date: I don’t see why not but it would depend on how both parties felt. These things have to be right.
79) Angels: Nope

Other
80) Current best friend’s name:
I would probably count my mum as my best friend. I don’t know if that’s pathetic, it probably is, but I don’t really have any friends in real life and I can talk with mum about anything.
81) Eye color: Brown.
82) Favorite movie: The Princess Diaries is my absolute go-to feel-good movie. I don’t know why I like it so much but I’ve watched it so many times I can practically quote the whole thing. I do like other movies which are a lot more ‘me’ but they change periodically. Like right now I would probably say Cap: Civil War, whereas The Princess Diaries is a constant. That has been true since I saw it for the very first time getting on for two decades ago. Wow I feel old now.

I’m going to tag @little-inkstone, @rowofstars and @worryinglyinnocent but please don’t feel obligated. This did take a very long time. I might not have started if I’d known how long *rolls eyes at self* but hey it’s Saturday and I was procrastinating anyway 🙂
