Share Your World – 2016 Week #3

What is your favorite piece of art? (it doesn’t have to be famous)

I’m don’t have a favorite individual piece of art. If I like art, I will usually like the whole genre. For example, Renaissance, Realism, etc. This sculpture is one of my favorites. It looks like two fingers crossed which means hopeful and optimistic.

What made you smile today?

Nothing yet, it’s still early, maybe when I’m done with my projects for my computer class? What made me smile yesterday, though, was that I successfully installed VirtualBox and Fedora onto my other laptop. VirtualBox is a virtual drive which allows me to run a DVD without actually using a DVD and Fedora is sort of like Linux, a lesser known operating system. This made me smile because I usually don’t have a lot of luck when it comes to installing something like a separate user interface. That’s the part that always trips me.

Which place do you recommend as a Must-See? Please state which country, state or providence.

I would recommend checking out the national parks in Southern Utah (the red rocks area). It’s absolutely amazing especially if you make the 90-minute hike to see the Delicate Arch. Unlike my mom, I want to go there again.

Complete this sentence: When I was younger I used to….

When I was younger, I used to sing and play the piano, privately, of course, when no one’s looking or listening. I have very bad stage fright, still do. Maybe one day, I will finally conquer it. Maybe…

As a child, who was your favorite relative?

Although I didn’t know her very long and very well, my favorite relative has to be my step-grandmother. She is the best grandmother I could’ve ever have.

If you could be a tree or plant, what would you be?

I am not sure. I am torn between a well-cared-for plant or a very tall tree in a preserved forest.

What would be your preference, awake before dawn or awake before noon?

Awake before noon because then I can stay up later. Waking up before dawn means I will be tired and sleepy quicker and that means I will miss out on all the night events like concerts and parties (that might happen when I’m alone). So I think I would wake up a little later than a little earlier.

Would you like to sleep in a human size nest in a tree or be snuggled in a burrowed spot underground?

Underground, although both sounds equally uncomfortable but because I have fears of heights and falling, I think being underground would be a safer option for me. However, after doing some research of what a “burrowed spot” means, I change my mind. I would rather be dangling from a tree than lie on dirt.

Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

I am happy that last week is over. It wasn’t a good week for me. My emotions were all over the place and I wasn’t a pleasant person to deal with. School is starting again next Monday. So I am spending most of this week catching up on my TV shows and writing.

What would be your ideal birthday present, and why?

I used to prefer some kind of monetary gift such as money, gift card, etc. but nowadays, I think spending a day where I’m not bothered would be good too.

What color would you like your bedroom to be?

I am horrible at choosing colors or anything. So I think instead of color, I will choose a more expensive path, have an artist to come paint a mural.

Would you prefer snowy winters, or not, and why?

No I do not prefer snowy winters because snow means there’s ice and for me, that’s a nightmare. I had a horrible experience early 2013 when the ice storm hit Utah. I almost ended up crawling to the bus stop that day after slipping on the ice numerous times that day, even wearing special boots.

Would you rather go a week without bathing, but be able to change your clothes, or a week without a change of clothes, but be able to bathe?

Can I at least wash my hair? A week without washing my hair would result in a greasy nightmare. Other than that, I think I would choose a week without bathing but I can change my clothes.

Are you a hugger or a non-hugger?

I am definitely not a hugger. Whenever someone hugs me, my heart would always pound nervously. I don’t know why and the worst part is, people tend to give me the awkward one-arm half-hug. It’s the most awkward thing ever when someone twice sometimes three times my size tries to give me a half-hug. It’s like they can wrap their arms all the way around me but I can barely reach half-way.

What is your favorite toppings on pizza?

I like almost all the toppings on pizza except for any type of mushrooms, onions, seafood including fish, and other weird things like marshmallow. Don’t laugh, I think I’ve seen a marshmallow pizza before. My all-time favorite pizza though, has to be sausage and pepperoni pizza. Mmm…

If you were the original designer of one existing corporate logo, which one would you select?

Coca-Cola. I don’t know why I choose that except that I know I would be rich. I learned from my accounting classes, the Coca-Cola logo worth a lot.

Complete this sentence: Where I can seek my solace is…

Anywhere that can provide me with peace and serenity. Anywhere that allows me to drift off temporarily to somewhere faraway.

If you were on a debate team, what general subject would you relish debating?

I was never on any debate team nor do I want to be. I don’t like to debate on any subject whatsoever. Guess that’s just who I am. Continue reading “Share Your World – 2015 Week #43” →
