Imaginary Questions (2021 version)

Posted in: 2021 posts | Dorama | Interest: Games | Interest: TV | Knit/Crochet Stuff | My Fangirl Side | On This Day | Youtube

Started knitting again yesterday. Wow, I missed knitting while watching stuff on TV/Youtube! Surprisingly, I can still focus on what I watch while I knit. As long as I'm not knitting something complicated... I think. My sister wanted  more of the knitted scrunchies I did for her (very simple pattern). I like the idea of keeping my hands busy knitting while catching up with the latest episodes (there are a lot of shows I left unfinished *sigh*)

⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰

I just realised 8TV is showing "The Romance of Tiger and Rose" in the 6pm slot. Didn't finish that one last year. Maybe I'll watch it casually. Because it's quite interesting. Loved the theme song.

⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰

On this day, I posted once on the same day and month in 2009. Ah. The year I did NaBloPoMo XD

It's a post about imaginary questions...? I think it was meant to be something like an F.A.Q corner or similar. Okay. Might be interesting to answer those questions again today, twelve years later.

The questions (and excerpts of my 2009 answers):
-Should I use my full name in Twitter?
Will consider this again later.
-Should I read Twilight and the rest of the series?
Sometimes when it comes to reading books… I tend to avoid the popular/bestseller ones
-Why do you not include your personal photos in your blog? Your photo on Twitter is too small, is that really you?
I choose privacy!
-What about the photos in this post?
Oh, that. That was from over 10 years ago! No one will recognise me! 
-Why are you not on facebook?
I tend to avoid things that are popular. 
-Then what’s the deal with Jonas Brothers and Twitter? They’re popular too!
I guess when I decide which is popular and need to be avoided, I also have an exception list to consider.

The random ones are making me laugh and embarrassed now :P
-No. Not going to to use my full name. No need to consider again.
-Ooh. Twilight, huh. At this moment, I don't really want to read the series...? Maybe the first book only if I really (really, really) have to. But hmmm not interested...
-LOOOL my twitter photo haven't changed in over a decade OMG
-Lol I think I've posted some photos of Chibi-me since then XD.. well you still can't recognise me I guess.
-Still not on Facebook. I have an Instagram account though (but private and not active XD). I think it's troublesome to maintain them.
-Yep. There will always be exceptions XD (but I still mainly avoid the popular ones)

Hmmm I'll edit this post later if I can think of more questions to add...

Added on 2021-12-01
Why do you keep buying books? Will you even read them?
I keep books that I like to call "Just in case" books.. Not exactly TBR books. Also, most of the books were purchased on Bookxcess and BBW (super cheap because they're [mostly] remaindered books).. if you want books from there, you have to act fast because they might not be in stock anymore in the future.

Definitely going to read them... slowly. I have an ambitious aim regarding that.

Are you still a fan of Arashi?
I am. I call myself more of a backseat fan (I still don't know what that means but that's what came to mind when I'm asked this question) now. I'm just not... as active as before. Like, I don't think I even have that stamina to keep up anymore. I listen to their songs regularly because I love them! 

They're on Spotify! My all-time favourite song of theirs is "truth". My favourite Ohno Satoshi [my ichiban hehe] solo song is "Song for me". Current songs that are on repeat this year: "Miles Away" & "Bang Bang"...
*fangirling mode* Lol.. Like I said, I'm still a fan.

Not taking any recommendations for artists similar to them!

Are you still on Twitter?
My twitter account is still up. And public. I do miss tweeting though. I used to be that kind of person who will tweet "Good Morning" (sometimes lol) on Twitter. I don't know.. not really in the mood to do that now. I used to complain about work before I started tweeting less... I do have an alter-ego account for my erm.. otome/dating sim games adventures (lol). Which I also don't update that frequently anymore. Speaking of otome games, I think these games has ruined romance books for me (it's so funny it's like that because usually people will say real life relationships :P). 

Are you single or married?
My imaginary questions are roasting me jk Well, erm, I don't know who needs to know this (probably no one hahaha) but I'll answer it anyway. I am single. Most of my close friends are married, so no pressure *smiles awkwardly*. For some reason, one of my ex-colleagues believed I have a boyfriend (back in 2017) and they didn't believe me when I said I don't (okay, another was convinced I'm Chinese - I'm not. We just have serious trust [& stereotyping?] issues at work XD). Never been in a relationship. Did have a mild "crush" *pfft* on someone in the past 5 years but fortunately it didn't go the serious way because that man was engaged (and now married).

I'm convinced no one could stand being with me & my eccentric personality (it's a fair observation made by me) and... it's okay. Getting to know someone is hard and troublesome.
