I don't usually talk about much Personal Stuff on this LJ, but let's see.
a. people who have been tagged must write their answers on their blog and replace any question that they dislike with a new, original question.
b. tag eight people. don't refuse to do that. don't tag who tagged you.
1. What are your nicknames?
Well - some people (not many these days) call me Lu. Even fewer call me Luce (do NOT try this at home; it's pretty much just my dad these days. Ew, bad nickname). Apart from that, it's pretty much "Wombat Girl", or in certain circles the Wombat Goddess. One friend calls me "Your Wombatness", which I quite like. :D
2. How do you style your hair?
It's a little past shoulder-length, straight-ish and parted to one side. Just had the layers cut back into it and it looks... okay. A bit limp, still!
3. What's new in your life right now?
I've been off work with depression now for about four months. Things have been looking up in the past few weeks, and I've got a provisional return date of 1st December (depending of course on if my doctor's okay with it, and how I feel by then. Really hopeful that that will work out and I'll be able to get back to work. Probably only part-time to start with, but that's better than nothing.
4. How many colors are you wearing now?
Black, grey, pink, light blue, dark blue... that's five?
5. Are you an introvert or extrovert?
That's a tough one! I love people (extrovert!) but am also very shy (introvert!) so it's hard to say sometimes. I have been known to call myself a secret attention whore which I feel sums it up quite nicely.
6. What was the last book you read?
OMG, I can't remember. I think it was The Circus Of The Damned by Laurel K. Hamilton - the third Anita Blake book. Rather good. I am going to join my local library on Monday and hopefully start up with the reading again.
7. Do you nap a lot?
Yes. Too much. Trying to cut down as it's a symptom of the depression and Not Good For Me.
8. If the person you secretly like is already taken, what would you do?
Mope. Be sad. And, from experience? Be harangued by mother that I should be making a play for him because, though he has a girlfriend, he's not married. WTF, Mum?!
9. Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?
Depression and recent diagnosis of diabetes have not been that happy-making. I'm fighting both of them, though. And on a less personal level? Prop 8 getting passed really sucks.
10. What was the last thing you ate today?
A pack of Babybel cheeses.
11. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
Not that long, maybe half an hour? Though now I am testing my blood sugar when I get up which takes a bit of time.
12. What websites do you visit daily?
LiveJournal. LJ Toys, I'm obsessive about finding out who reads my stories! Google, one way or another. Addicting Games, 'cause I'm addicted to Untangle. And that's about it now that I have a good mail program to download my email into.
13. what classes are you taking right now? and if you're not in school anymore, what's your job?
I'm a Customer Service Executive for a private accountancy college in London.
14. Do you like to clean?
No!
15. What's the last song that got stuck in your head?
Confide In Me by Kylie. God only knows why.
16. What are you doing right now?
This meme? And talking tollamabitchyo and trumpeterofdoom thanks to the magic that is Gchat.
17. What's better: eternal love or memorable love?
Never had either, so I couldn't tell you. In my imagination, though? Eternal is better.
18. What would you do if you see $100 lying on the ground?
If it hadn't been dropped in my sight? Probably take it and spend it. And feel a bit guilty, though to be honest, a single note of currency's owner probably wouldn't be found by the police anyway...
19. Best time of your life?
Hm. I've spent so much of my life depressed, it's sort of hard to tell. University, probably, ages 21-25.
20. Tell me something good.
Obama yay! And on a personal level, things are finally starting to look up for my health, both physical and mental.
Oh, and I'm supposed to tag people, aren't I? Um, I've never done this tagging thing before and have no idea who hasn't done it and still would want to, but, um...
snarkyllama, trumpeterofdoom, phaballa, adelate, etsu_88, bubbleforest, ravenbat, musiclover03.
There!
