[personal profile] labellementeuse
MASSIVE meme/quiz thing, lifted shamelessly from Aurika.

LAYER ONE: On The Outside
Name: Tui (tumpty-tum, lalala, in. your. dreams. )
Birth date: 22/07/87
Birth place: Auckland, New Nealand
Current Location: Wellington, New Zealand. And I never lived in Auckland, I want to make that quite clear.
Eye Color: NO idea. Grey-green-brown.
Hair Color: very light brown/very dark blonde.
Height: 185 cm, I think. No idea in feet and inches.
Righty or Lefty: Righty
Zodiac Sign: Ah... Cancer, depeding on which magazine you're reading- though of course I know that cancer is not actually the right one, because star signs are, like, a month out of date.

LAYER TWO: On The Inside
Your heritage: Norwegian/Scottish/English.
Shoes you wore today: Red leather slip-ons, my favourite shoes that are all worn out.
Your weakness: Chocolate, sweet things, fantasy books.
Your fears: 1) Giving in to peer pressure to have the same opinions and to hold them in the same way as anyone does, or not expressing my opinions exactly how I want them. 2) having everyone looking at me, and not caring what I think, and looking at me in that way people do that just says "you are such a _freak_, crawl away and die." >.< Not proud of that. 3) heights, I guess... disease- meningitis is a big one. War. Poverty. All that jazz.
Your perfect pizza: *hums* either Hawaiian with huge tender lumps of ham, or meatlovers. Yes I am one of the utter cretins who eat pineapple on pizza, and not I don't care..
Goal you'd like to achieve: Succeed in school this year- I mean, really well. Get a scholarship or a bursary of some description with my marks- get Dux. I woudl love to be dux. What else.... do well in violin and viola, and be able to carry that on as an adult- not earning money, but the way I do it now, for pleasure. Mmm, get Suzuki teacher training. Get a job I like. Marry (or not marry) someone with broadband. ;)

LAYER THREE: Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow
Your most overused phrase on AIM: hey there, hah, heh, ...
Your thoughts first waking up: FUCK.
Your best physical feature: Uhm.... none of the above? I guess I have nice eyes, eveyrone has nice eyes. DOn't get me wrong, I like my figure, I like my body, I think I'm OK to look at, but nothing is particularly outstanding. Nice figure, I guess.
Your bedtime: whenever I'm tired.
Your most missed memory: I forget all my memories, so I guess any of them. Maybe some of those perfect moments, the ones you get when you're just suddenly still and everything's.... wow. I can't remember them all.

LAYER FOUR: Your Pick
Pepsi or Coke: Coke, all the way... especially VANILLA Coke.
McDonald's or Burger King: McDonalds, but preferably neither, the bastards.
Single or group dates: Ah..... pass, no idea.
Adidas or Nike: They're SHOES. you WEAR them, then they get HOLES in them, then you get NEW ones. WHO CARES ABOUT THE BRAND??? No one's gonna look at your shoes and go "hey, your shoes suck." THEY'RE SHOES.... >> That was stolen from Aurie, but it's good enough for me. I never wear sports shoes anyway, so it's more likely to be Hannah's. and LOL, because I bet none of you get that. ;)
Lipton Ice Tea or Nestea: Never tasted either, we don't get them here.
Chocolate or vanilla: CHOCOLATE
Cappuccino or coffee: coffee of any description= GROSS.

LAYER FIVE: Do You?
Smoke: no way.
Cuss: too much.
Sing: all the time
Take a shower everyday: sure.
Have a crush(es): *groans* yes, x2. Such a pain.
Think you've been in love: Uhm......... define "in love." Maybe.
Like(d) high school: I didn't, up till quite recently. But I've been in the same school for six years now and I'm going batty. Help me outta here!!!!!
Want to get married: I really don't care. I mean, I'd like to have a loving, long-term relationship with someone. I'm not yet sure whether I would _have_ to get married to have that security, though I think the formality of marriage means that people are more likely to try to work stuff out than break up at the slightest hiccup.
Believe in yourself: Am I un-teenager if I say yes?
Get motion sickness: Depends, on apparently nothing. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Usually car, hardly ever train, never bus, don't go on boats enough to tell.
Think you're attractive: To myself? No. That is to say, if I looked at me and I wasn't me, I don't think I would ifnd myself particularly attractive. OTOH, I get hit on too much. >.< Make it stop!
Think you're a health freak: Nope.
Get along with your parents: I don't get along with anyone. Or, well, yes I do, but not with my parents... or I do. I mean, I love my parents and everything, but I'm going through one of those stages where I jsut cannot be alone with my motehr or we start fighting. Dad, not so much, I get along with him fine.
Like thunderstorms: :D Absolutely. They rock my socks because they're so POWERFUL and windy and BIG and majestic and BEAUTIFUL. Like the wind.
Play an instrument: Violin, viola, ex-crappy piano.

LAYER SIX: In the past month have you...
Drank alcohol: *considers* Yeah, I had a champagne cocktail at Christmas. Yum.
Made Out: No, curse it.
Gone on a date: see above
Gone to the mall?: Yeah... it's wierd, I never go to malls in Wellington 'cause we don't really have any, but here (in Aussie on holiday) ALL the shopping is in these MASSIVE malls, which have like five levels (or maybe more, the Queen Victoria Building is _so_ big) including at least two underground. I get SO lost, it's heaps of fun.
Eaten an entire box of Oreos: No, because we don't get them here.... we used to get those little packets with three, or was it six? in them. I definitely ate a whole one of them.
Eaten sushi: Not this month, happily (I don't really like it)
Been on stage: Not this month, but ever? Sure, I was Claudio in my school's Shakespeare at the beginning of the year, and a bunch of other stuff. If you mean professionally, then no.
Been dumped: Nah.
Gone skating: ice skating? Or roller skating? ice never, might be very cool, rollerblading vv infrequently and vv badly.
Gone skinny dipping: Nah.
Dyed your hair: Nope. I never wanna dye my hair, or get highlights
Stolen anything: No. Oh. Maybe some change from my mother's purse, but I paid it back later so it doesn't count.

LAYER SEVEN: Ever...
Played a game that required removal of clothing: Yeah. When I was, like, eight I played Strip jack Naked with a couple of friends.
Been trashed or extremely intoxicated: Nah, what's the point?
Been caught "doing something": Er, no. My parents don't really care, so it's not like "catching" anyway, but still nope.
Been called a tease: Uhm.... I don't think so? Probably no.
Gotten beaten up: By my brother, when we were little. Other than that, naaaah.
Shoplifted: No.

LAYER EIGHT: Getting Older
Age you hope to be married: No idea, don't care, when time seems right. Not before I've got my degree, though, at least a basic bachelor's.
Numbers and Names of Children: As few as possible, without them being lonely. Two, I guess. Cause, see, I migyht be a good mother, or I might not, but I don't know if I'd be happy being a stay at home mum, and that's what I'd want to do for my kids until they were eleven.... maybe even homeschool them a bit, or something.
Describe your dream wedding: I don't know. Outside would be nic, and a colour other than white would be nice. Other than that, we'll see.
How do you want to die: When I'm old!!! Or not old: whenever I die, I don't want to feel like I've wasted my time. So I guess if I died now, I should be pretty happy: I've done a lot of stuff, though not everything.
What do you want to be when you grow up: Something. Hopefully something that makes a reasonable profit, but otherwise... just something I enjoy, hopefully something that makes a difference- though more likely I'll do the volunteer, make-a-difference stuff _outside_ of my job.
What country would you most like to visit: Ooh, toughie. COuntry I have no idea... I want to go to france, England- France is probably the place I'd most like to live for a while- the States, all of Europe, All of everywhere. Probably not Africa- I want to go there, but not as much as some places. I guess the States, because I might get to meet some of my net-friends, which would be SO cool.

LAYER NINE: In a guy
Best eye color?: Screw physical stuff, what's their personality? But dreamy would be nice. (voice: Dreamy's not a colour!) It is so a colour! >> Aurika says it for me again....
Best hair color?: No idea. I don't know, maybe black, but it's not... like essential. None of my crushes have or have ever had black hair, so...
Short or long hair: Preferably long, but not _too_ long, I mean not waist-length. No dreads.
Height: Preferably taller, but again, what's the personality?>> Aurika :)
Best first date location: what kinda shit question is this?>> Aurika.

LAYER TEN: In The Numbers...
Number of people I could trust with my life: Good god. I don't know. I'd say at least two net friends, but I don't know if I can trust them at all, so I'll leave them out of the equation (sorry, guys): I guess.... *counts* Somewhere between seven and ten.
Number of CD's I own: Thirty or so? I don't know, that doesn't seem like a lot written down, but quite a few anyway.
Number of piercings: Zero.
Number of tattoos: Zilch.
Number of times my name has appeared in the Newspaper?: Several, no idea how many exactly.
Number of scars on my body: Does it look like I count???>> Aurika. :p
Number of things in my past that I regret: I dunno, not too many, I don't do regret. Remorse, sure.

THREE GOOD THINGS ABOUT MY PERSONALITY

Various Rant: I actually don't know if this is part of the meme- or if it counts as a rant. But I was thinking the other day. It must be really boring for guys at dances, especially if they like to dance (some guys do.) Because if a girl is by herself, or only with girlfriends, she can dance by herself or with girls and it's fine and it's fun. But if a guy is in the same position..... mostly, he just don't dance. poor things. It's not fair, dammit!

*stretches* MAN that thing was big. :) Cheers, Aurie, lucky I was bored. :p

In other news: I'm back from holiday, for about five seconds. I feel guilty about neglecting this: I finish stuff I start, but I haven't exactly been a model blogger. OTOH, I have been away. So.... when I get back from Suzuki Camp (Whee! I'm such a geek, I love violin camp) I promise myself a full update. (Maybe including photos, if the scanner starts working. )

*grins* Yeah, I know. But that's because it's a stigma!!!! Guys are trained not to like dancing!!!!!! It's all the fault of our western society and TV culture!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know, I know. But there are guys who like to dance, and generally it' not a very accepted thing anyway. Just look at all the shit guys get (in school) when they dance, ballet or jazz or whatever- even when they're adults I bet they do still. It's just not "cool," which is stupid, because dancing is actually REALLY SEXY, and guys who dance have certain advantages. (Plus, did you know that (male) ballet dancers are stronger than rugby players?)

I don't mind at all. *friends back*
