The Boy Behind The Scarf

What was your favorite book as a child?

2012-01-19T14:49:00.001-08:00

I used to have the complete set of Mr Men books, Mum used to read the Worried Arthur books which helped me feel better when I was worried about something, which I often was (still am).

Ask me anything

What do you do to stay fit?

2012-01-11T09:41:00.001-08:00

I recently joined an arrive-and-play style football thing at my uni but aside from that an inability to afford gym membership tends to restrict the amount of exercise I can get.

Ask me anything

Do you remember your dreams?

2012-01-05T05:02:00.001-08:00

Only on nights where I actually have dreams, sometimes within a few minutes I forget about half of what actually happened in the dream so if the dream mattered to me in some way I write it down as quick as I can before it's lost. There really ought to be a way to record your dreams and watch them back.

Ask me anything

Would you rather text or talk?

2012-01-04T05:44:00.001-08:00

I do like hearing people's voices when I have conversations with them, though I find as far as texting or other forms of instant messaging goes you have more time to think about your response without the awkward silence you'd get in a call when the person you're talking to would just sit there and wait until you said something. Depends on the situation I guess.

Ask me anything

Can you whistle?

2011-12-09T11:24:00.001-08:00

Yes.

Ask me anything

How much TV do you watch?

2011-12-06T06:37:00.001-08:00

I watch quite little TV compared to what I used to, the only thing I make efforts to watch live is the F1 and Doctor Who, everything else I can just watch online if I miss it so there's not much compulsion to watch TV then.

Ask me anything

Have you ever recommended a book to a friend?

2011-12-04T09:52:00.001-08:00

Looking For Alaska (my personal favourite book) and The Killing Joke tend to be books I recommend to people, well worth a read!

Ask me anything

What is your favorite type of sandwich?

2011-11-22T07:48:00.001-08:00

Ask me anything

What celebrity do you look like?

2011-11-19T11:58:00.001-08:00

2011-10-26T05:04:00.001-07:00

2011-10-03T15:14:00.001-07:00

What do you want to ask me? http://formspring.me/Scarf1991

Can money buy happiness?

2011-09-20T16:43:00.001-07:00

It can buy it for a short while, but it won't do the job completely.

A lot of things.

Ask me anything

Do you believe in aliens or life on other planets?

2011-08-28T07:53:00.001-07:00

Absolutely, considering that there's an inconceivable amount of space in the universe I feel there simply has to be other life out there. Plus planets similar to Earth have been discovered and the life that exists out there could even survive on very different planets to ours. Bit of a waste don't you think if we're the only form of life in the universe?

(*boredom) If I do get bored I'm likely to find a game to play or read unread books/magazines whilst listening to podcasts or watch unwatched DVD's. Whatever I think of at the time really.

Do you have any hidden talents?

2011-08-14T07:34:00.001-07:00

Ask me anything

If you had kids, what would you name them? :)

2011-07-27T17:46:00.001-07:00

I'd be sure they don't have the situation where if their name is called out in a crowd they won't think they are being called instead of someone else like I often was, for some reason I like the sound of Isaac if I had a boy. For a girl I'm not so sure, maybe something to consult my future wife about. Amelia, Mercedes, Summer perhaps?

What makes you happiest?

2011-07-20T12:11:00.001-07:00

Big question that is! I couldn't pin it down to one thing but it includes things like the sound of 20+ F1 cars screaming past me, being cuddled with the woman I love most, random conversations with my friends, that one awesome picture I just took. Many things my friend, many things.

Ask me anything

What is your idea of beauty in a woman?

2011-07-20T12:09:00.001-07:00

I find it hard to explain what I find beautiful in a woman, you could notice how bright their eyes are or how heartwarming their smile is, the littlest thing about a woman you can find beautiful and I guess that's as close to an answer I can give you for now.

What's the worst injury you've had, and how did it happen?

2011-06-15T04:34:00.001-07:00

It's not a big one but it's the worst I've had, I've had a hairline fracture in my left index finger. I got it about 4 years ago in school during a PE lesson playing basketball, unfortunate case where you reach for the ball and your finger gets bent the wrong way. Didn't actually hurt at the time but I remember it swelling up a bit when I got home, showed it to my Mum asking if something looked wrong and she drove me to A&E right there and then.

Ask me anything

What's your astrological sign? Do you think it's representative of who you are?

2011-06-11T06:25:00.001-07:00

Apparently I'm an Aquarius, and no I don't think it is. I think that many factors including my upbringing, the friends I've made, where I live define me more than the coincidental link of my birth date and one of many constellations in the sky.

Ask me anything

If you were given the money to start a new business, what business would you open?

2011-06-05T19:07:00.001-07:00

Ah but that would be telling, any brainwaves I have I'll save for Dragon's Den!

Ask me anything

What do you always carry with you at all times?

2011-06-04T10:22:00.001-07:00

There's no one object I carry with me all of the time, but quite often I carry my phone and/or my phone with me. But if I'm not leaving the house then I just put it somewhere I'll easily find it.

Ask me anything

When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?

2011-06-01T06:10:00.001-07:00

My mum told me a tale about this on a car ride not long ago, when I was little she asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up I said 'racing driver' but she said to me that unless we suddenly got rich it probably wasn't going to happen, so then I said 'footballer' but she said to me that they don't have very long careers and would retire early so in response I just said 'fine I'll just be an astronaut then!', but even now I still would want to be a racing driver.

Ask me anything

What would you try if you had no fear?

2011-05-26T06:25:00.001-07:00

Not sure, but without fear I think I'd end up doing stupid things along the way what with fear being what helps us stay out of situations we think we'll get hurt in.

Ask me anything

What TV show do you wish was still on the air?

2011-05-16T18:50:00.001-07:00

What do you most appreciate about your mom?

You're stuck on a desert island. Excluding practical items (food, clothes, suncream), you're allowed 5 things. What do you take?

2011-05-09T08:49:00.001-07:00

Practical as in anything that won't make me stuck on a desert island anymore? Screw it I'd just have my TARDIS, it's got all I need in it!

Ask me anything

What religion are you?

2011-05-08T04:58:00.001-07:00

If you were god for a day what would you do?

2011-05-02T17:12:00.001-07:00

This is a tough question, I'm not completely sure what I'd do, maybe work out all the mysteries of life or change how people can often value opinions more than facts or make problems in life more easily solvable without resorting to violence.

2011-05-01T16:51:00.001-07:00

I don't think I have any sports socks, and as far as the mirror is concerned that only really happens after I've just had a shower or a bath.

Bob Marley or Bob Dylan?

2011-04-20T10:12:00.001-07:00

2011-04-06T06:28:00.001-07:00
