Well, I will give you my favourite girls name, but it's not necessarily the choice (remember this baby does have a father)

My favourite girls name is Isabella Violet Grace (but that has nothing to do with the name we have picked)


Sorry guys you know the sex and you know the birth date so the name will have to keep guessing.

OK, I suppose we have to put up with that! I love the name Isabella! and Grace, I love it! I did launch one of those name campaigns, peculiar to us MIL's, lobbying for names like Georgia Grace, Belle, Bridie, but when all's said and done, it's the parents choice and I know they will always select the best! I have yet to be disappointed! :thumbsup:

:wave: no, this family doesn't listen to music at all.

do you think it is weird that my family doesn't listen to any music? if so what bothers you about this decision by my parents?
Before I answer that question, I must firstly say that I am not trying to attack you or your parents or their decision - so if I come across that way, sorry! I am sure there is a good reason and I respect that. :)

Okay, now to answer the question - yes I do think it's "weird". Well, unusual, strange, whatever. What bothers me about it is that I genuinely believe God gave us the fantastic gift of music for our own enjoyment, for edifying each other, and for His glory. I don't know why your parents don't have music in your family - if it's because they personally don't like it, that's one thing, but if it's because they have anything theologically against it - well that would bother me because I would strongly disagree. I have known people who, while not against music altogether, are against any form of electrified instrument and, worse, any form of synchopated rhythm - and quite frankly I think these people's reasoning for this is wrong and unBiblical.

Again I say I respect your family's beliefs and must apologise if I come across as rude or judgemental!

I guess I also see music as an important part of life - I do believe it can sharpen the mind and be a great source of relaxation and enjoyment, which I do think is important.

And of course, probably the biggest reason why it "bothers" me is just a personal one - it's such a massive part of my life that I can't imagine life with no music of any sort. It frightens me! It's why I fear deafness more than most other physical deficiency.

Anyway, sorry about that long answer there.

Next question! What's your favourite spread to put on toast?

If you could choose any occupation to do for the rest of your life, what would you do?
Don't know. Tough question. I'll say "lawyer" in a broad sense because I'm studying Economics/Law at the moment, very much enjoying the law side of it, and I'm sure there are lots of various jobs for lawyers. I could also "musician" but I'm not so sure I'd want to do that as a job, for the rest of my life anyway.

What was the worst job you've ever had?

i think this one i have now is working its way up to being the worse job i've had so far - i work in a gas station/mini mart. what's the best job you've ever had?
I worked in the cafe my parents and their friends ran for a year - I hated the work but it was a good environment which was a huge plus.

As far as the work goes, the best job I've had so far was packing shelves at Coles. I have a few beginning piano students as well - that's more satisfying - but I wouldn't call it my job just yet.

Are you more of an indoors person or outdoors person? Or maybe a mix of both?

Just gone 10:42 pm.

Totally agree about the bathroom thing.

Generally speaking, what do you prefer - rice or pasta?
