The questions sound fun so I decided to do Saturday 9 today~
Link to questions → Saturday 9: Forever Your Girl (1989)
1) In this song, Paula Abdul tells her boyfriend he's got to remember, she's forever his girl. How's your memory? Do you remember things easily or do you leave yourself notes and reminders?
I don't consider myself having a good memory (I hate memorising stuff) but sometimes I do remember things I don't even realise I remember... So I guess it's like selective memory kind of thing? I do make notes and reminders but most of the time they are useless because I keep losing them haha (but there's also that thing where you remember easily if you write them down... so it doesn't matter if I lose them, I guess?)
2) Paula reassures her lover that she can't be swayed by another man, even if he gave her diamonds or pearls. Tell us about a piece of jewelry that means something to you.
I'm going to go with "Plato's Eternity" for this. It's a bracelet from Folli Follie. It was featured in "Love of the Aegean Sea" and I was/am crazy about it. I even want it to be part of my wedding, if I ever get the chance to have one lol.
Here's a photo of it from someone who got it for their birthday (SO JEALOUS!)
I usually don't really care about jewellery, so this might be the only jewellery I ever want in my life... and it was all because I was a fan of Alec Su.
3) Paula is best known as one of the original judges of American Idol. Without looking it up, can you recall the men who sat on either side of her?
I remember their faces but I don't remember their names other than Simon :/
4) Paula has been dancing since age 8 and moves very well in heels. Tell us about your favorite shoes.
I don't really have a favourite...? As long as it doesn't give me pain (other than blisters), durable and long-lasting then I'm good.. which automatically excludes all [very] high heels XD

5) A lifelong dancer, Paula admits she's not a trained singer. For this record, she worked with producer Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, who won accolades for his work with singers including Madonna, Kelly Clarkson, Toni Braxton and Janet Jackson. Who is your all-time favorite female singer?
Again, I'm beginning with this: I don't really have one... but if I really have to choose it will be Onitsuka Chihiro... Haven't really been listening to her recent songs but I love her songs from early 2000s.
6) She advises young girls to "keep the faith and don't lose your gut instinct." How about you? Are you more logical or instinctive?
I'm more of a logical person but I try to listen to my instincts from time to time.
7) Paula is excited that Richard Branson has chosen her song, "Straight Up" as the theme for his Virgin Galactic Spaceflight company. Would you like to orbit above the earth?
Me, who loves space opera movies/tv shows/games: YES.
8) In 1989, when this song was a hit, the Sears Holiday Wish Book was big on bathrobes. Men and women alike were tempted with brightly colored, belted robes with hoods and patch pockets. Tell us about your bathrobe.
I don't have a bathrobe... but I do have a blue sleeping robe that's surprisingly warm even though the fabric is thin.
9) Random question: What do you consider your best quality?
I'm a fast learner. Of course, not for everything. Most of the time I can learn what I need to know by observing and asking questions. For some stuff, I will try to recognise a pattern so that I can try to find an efficient way to do them... just so that I can laze around or do something else later XD
Welcome to Saturday 9! We're here every week and hope you rejoin us.
That bracelet is adorable. You're right -- foot blisters are the worst! I wish I had your knack as a fast learner.
Love the bracelet; I've never seen anything like that. Being able to learn is a great skill. Thanks for joining us in Saturday 9! Hope you come back next week because I enjoyed your answers.
That bracelet is very chic. And, Logic is good when you have time to think. Instinct saves your life when you just CANNOT think. lol
