I was gonna tidy my flat (Kate's gonna be in Brighton tomorrow so she's coming to visit and I'd better get rid of the mess here) but I've just found out the lightbulb is blown so it's too dark to clean and I can't go buy a new one just yet cuz I must listen to Radio2 as it has Natalie Imbruglia live and a little later on Moby and I can't miss that. So I'll do a few questionnaires I've been collecting.
A small update about my life first maybe... I've had a pretty shitty week, tho today has been marginally better. Kept myself busy and tried not to think about the negative things too much. Went to the Hove College open day. It's very cute and I am definitely doing that course now which I am quite excited about. Hopefully work will let me do part time, if not I'll have to quit I guess.
Yeah and then I've taken time off work and booked flights for both Fugees concerts - am staying the extra day in Stockholm to see more of it - thanks again to Vega who will be my tour guide. Zurich will be a very short thing, coming back the next morning so I only need to take 1.5 days off.
Yeah so that's it. Moby's on now, so soon off to get a lightbulb lol. But first the questionnaires...
These are stolen from Michelle.

is there such thing as love @ first sight?: it can happen, but it's really sth you can only assess retrospectively so it's kinda crap.
SIGNIFICANT OTHERS
turn ons: hands, legs, boobs, necks lol. nice smell
turn offs: lots of things. I'm not easily turned on lol.
do your parent's opinion on your bf/gf matter to you?: (I'll take this to apply to friends since I don't do relationships) It won't influence me, but it bugs me when my mum disapproves of friends cuz then we keep getting into arguments which sucks.
what kinda hair style?: doesn't matter.
the sweetest thing someone can do for you?: can be various things. but generally: show me that you care, don't just talk bullshit about how much you love me when your actions make it clear you don't give a fuck.

summer or winter: summer. hate cold and rain (and it never snows these days anymore)
