Ask Me Anything!

Where do you draw the line between possible and impossible?

Nothing is impossible.. Except maybe answering this question

Where do you believe love ends and obsession begins?

Hmmm, stalking?

Are you a talker or a listener? Is it ever possible to really be both?

Definitely a listener. I am quite a quiet person most of the time. Although I do think it is possible to be both.

Is becoming a wise person the product of doing many unwise things?

Yes and no. A wise person becomes that way by learning from mistakes.

When the children of today grow up and look back at this period in history, what do you think they'll say? What would you most want them to remember about this period in history?

Probably wonder exactly what we were thinking.. There are a lot of things that should be changed. I would hope they remember not to make the mistakes that we and the last few generations have made and do the best to fix the problems they encounter, but also remember the good things.

What is the best thing about Australia?

Probably the weather - It is not usually too cold or hot (I can’t stand the cold so I like that we don’t have freezing temperatures here!) We are very lucky!

What is the best thing about Australians?
What do you think of PM John Howard?

Most of the time he does a good job, sometimes I think his policies are a bit old-fashioned but his party have done a lot of good things while in power

Do you want to see him remain PM after the election?

Torn on that one. Yes he has done a pretty good job up until recently but some of the policies and things lately have made me rethink it.

Which party are you supporting in the election(if any)?

I actually won’t be voting in this election so it doesn’t really matter

How many different countries, states, regions, or otherwise have you been to? Which is your favorite?

A lot of places when I was younger - we travelled around Australia when I was 4 so I have been to every state. I have also been to USA (California, Florida, Hawaii) and Fiji. Favourite was probably Hawaii or Fiji. I can’t really remember the others, I was too young.

Do you believe that J.R.R. Tolkien was an amazing author and visionary, or just some weird guy who liked gnomes a bit too much?

Couldn’t he be both? He was a great author but pretty obsessed with gnomes

Which planet in our solar system would you most want to see if you got the chance to visit one?

Saturn - not sure why. It is just the one that came to my head when I thought about this question

How do you feel about television, in general?

I don’t really watch much television, not really because I don’t like it but I just never have time.. Too busy with school, work and my CF obsession

Here is an interesting idea: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6990802.stm

Leave it to the Russians...lol
What do you think, ingenious idea or an area that government shouldn't be treading?

◘ Do you believe in love at first sight? Have you ever experienced it?
○ How long does it take to be filled with wisdom? Are we born with it or is it acquired?
◘ Is it possible to love purely without expecting anything (even love itself) in return?
○ What if you were a person of pure unconditional love? How would you think, feel, and act, and how different would your life be? How would other people respond to you?
◘ You have a fatal disease and have been given 6 months to live. You are making peace with all the people you’ve wronged in your life. Who is the first person on your list and what would you say to them?

Lol - very different. It could be an alright idea. I guess you could compare it to the baby bonus we have where all new mothers receive a sum of money when they have a baby.. just a bit more extreme That has helped raise the number of babies in Australia, however it doesn't really help the quality of life the baby might have - some are using it as an excuse to gain money but not thinking of the consequences of having a baby..
And I need to stop before I start writing an essay (sorry.. the baby bonus is one of the things I had to write about in my last exam so still on my mind )

Do you believe in love at first sight? Have you ever experienced it?

I have not experienced it, but I don’t see why it can’t exist

How long does it take to be filled with wisdom? Are we born with it or is it acquired?

I think wisdom is something that is acquired.

Is it possible to love purely without expecting anything (even love itself) in return?

Yes I think it is possible, but something that would be extremely difficult to do at times.

What if you were a person of pure unconditional love? How would you think, feel, and act, and how different would your life be? How would other people respond to you?

I guess I would be a lot more patient than I am.
Some people would probably be quite frightened or confused I think. I don’t think some people could accept that they are loved unconditionally.

You have a fatal disease and have been given 6 months to live. You are making peace with all the people you’ve wronged in your life. Who is the first person on your list and what would you say to them?

Probably my parents, or at least try to. I don’t know exactly what I would say..
