So was thinking it might be nice (i'm probably wrong, usually am [:D]) to get to know some every day stuff about my fellow posters.
 
So here goes :-

What are your hobbies?
Fave book?
Fave cd?
Fave possession?
Worst habit?
Fave food?
Fave drink?
Fave film?
Something we'd be surprised to know about you........
And anything else you'd like us to know.................[:D]

wandersalone -> RE: Getting to know you................... (8/24/2008 9:37:43 AM)

What do you do for a living? I'm a psychologist and am taking my time at the moment looking for a job I will feel passionate about and will challenge me (and pay me lots of money)
What are your hobbies? lazing around, seeing friends, art galleries, shopping, driving, reading, listening to music, seeing bands and a million other things.
Fave book? generally whatever I am reading at the moment so right now it would be Jude The Obscure by Thomas Hardy (I was heartbroken to get rid of so many of my books when I moved)
Fave cd? Toss up between any of my Augie March (Aussie band) cd's or the ones signed by Ron Hawkins (Canadian singer)
Fave possession? lots of them...I am so shallow.... my car, my teddy bear that was given to me when I was born, my gucci handbag, my swarovski crystal collection and my photos of family and friends.... the non shallow answer would be my health, I was given a second chance at life and now treasure every moment.
Worst habit? I have a million but the most frustrating for me is my indecisiveness.  Also not knowing left and right and having no sense of direction means I spend a lot of my life getting lost.
Fave food?I love seafood and asian food.
Fave drink? Water (yes very boring)
Fave film? Platoon is one of my all time favourites as well as Dogs In space (Aussie film which had Michael Hutchence in it)
Something we'd be surprised to know about you........ I literally cry at the drop of a hat, if someone is telling me about something wonderful that happened to them I will choke up, if they tell me something sad I will choke up.... I like to think that I am very much in touch with my emotions ha ha.
And anything else you'd like us to know................. some of the most rewarding experiences of my life were when I used to do volunteer work in the oncology section of a childrens hospital and also when I looked after people with an AIDS related diagnosis who chose to die at home.  Sadly I lost a lot of 'friends' when doing the latter work through their own prejudices and ignorance.... their loss.

edited to add..... bloody hell, I also tend to choose the long-winded answer, less is never more damnit!

and I am really liking reading about people.  Thanks for making this thread Misst.
