Tagged myself (lol), was interested in this meme, and Sassy Mom has kindly interviewed me.

1. When you're down, how do you pick yourself up?

My favourite thing to do at the moment is to create images on the computer, from scratch or by manipulating photographs. It’s very engrossing, and I have the time to do it… I have always been very interested in graphics, and I enjoy photography. Sometimes I download tutorials from the ‘Net, and teach myself a new technique. I love the feeling of achievement I have at the end… And I know it’s a little antisocial, but it works, it eases the grumps; and this way I don’t bite anyone’s head off (they don’t call me tiger for nothing).

2. How do you pamper yourself?

Hmmm… That’s a tough one. How I would love to do it is by going in for a full-body massage, manicure and pedicure, but that never seems to happen... So the next best thing is soaking myself in the bath (with salts) with a good book and maybe coffee or herbal tea. I do this fairly often… Because I can’t function when I’m stressed out, being an anxious sort of person.

3. Name something that will really scare you?

I am a really bad traveller. REALLY bad. I always imagine horrific car accidents and plane crashes… And I can’t stop myself from being a total wreck beforehand. I guess the merest hint of something going wrong is what really shatters me, like the turbulence when I travelled recently…. I was so shaken that on the road trip just afterwards, I kept thinking we were going to have an accident…

4. What will be the most memorable gift you have received?

Strangely enough, people don’t often give me gifts (think I have that kind of vibe). But I suppose it would be the HiFi (yes) that I got from my mother when I turned 15; I wanted it so badly (not sure why, now).

5. What's the first thing you do when you wake up?

I try to make it to say good morning to God, because I feel I need to centre myself. Then I go to the bathroom :)


For those of you who want to do this, here are the rules:

1. Leave me a comment saying “Interview me.”
2. I will respond by emailing you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.


Thanks Sassy Mom!
