Warm evenings and summer storms fill me with a sudden longing to either travel or write letters to people in faraway places. Since I have neither money nor time to go away, I'll start writing the letters (even if I don't have anyone to send them to)

I was tagged by the wonderful @pineconecat
 
Since I've already done this tag, I will break the rules (woo, how rebellious of me) and won't tag anyone (sorry!).
 
Here are my answers to the questions:
1. do you believe in fairies?
Awwww what a cute question!
No, I don't. But I truly did when I was little. I would even make little meals for them from leaves and flowers. Good times.
 
2. can you name a list of 10 best films you ever watched?
V for Vendetta, Moorise Kingdom, Pulp Fiction, the Lord of the Rings trilogy + The Hobbit (let's say that all of these count as one), The Royal Tenenbaums, The Silence of The Lambs, A Clockwork Orange, Amadeus, Inglourious Basterds, American Beauty.
(I'm sure I could write at least 20 more)
 
3. do you like classical music?
Yes, I do! Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky and Chopin are the ones I listen to the most. They're simply wonderful.
 
4. do you prefer going to the cinema or watching films at home?
Going to the cinema, because I don't do it too often and because I like watching movies on a huge screen and shoving popcorn in my mouth at the same time.
 
5. have you changed a lot for the last 5 years?
Yes! I'm more comfortable with myself and more grown-up than I was five years ago. I think I'm a better person now. More confident, more reliable, focused on my future goals, a better friend and a better daughter.
 
6. your haircut is long or short?
Long-ish, I guess. I used to have short hair but now I want to grow it back. I want my hair to be loooong.
 
7. what was the first book you have read in your childhood?
I can't really remember, because my parents taught me how to read at a very young age. It must have been some adorable children's book, possibly something by Astrid Lindgren.
 
8. who is your favourite disney character?
That's a hard question! There are so many great Disney characters. Maybe Pumba and Timone from The Lion King. Hakuna Matata!
 
9. do you eat at night sometimes?:D
No, I sleep at night.
 
10. what is your birthplace?
The capital of the country I live in. I was born in a hospital about 10 minutes away from my home. I guess it's not a big surprise that I desperately want to get out of here. I'm sick and tired of walking the same streets year after year.
I want (no, I need) something new!
Hopefully, my wishes will come true in the near future.
 
11. how many hours do you usually sleep?
Around 6-7. It's not enough, but I have problems falling asleep (and that's why I'm always tired).

I was tagged by the lovely @jellisa
 
Rule 1: Always post the rules.
Rule 2: Answer the questions the person who tagged you has written and write 11 new ones.
Rule 3: Tag 11 new people
 
1. Your response to a cheesy pick up line?
Depends on the line and who's saying it. I would probably just smile or laugh, unless it was something rude. Anyway, cheesy pick up lines aren't that bad! At least you know that someone is interested in you, haha!
 
2. Things you'll do in a midlife crisis?
I have no idea. I guess I'd try to make myself feel better by spending time with my friends and family or working a lot and keeping my mind off things.
 
3. A movie title for the story of your life?
Wow, this a very interesting yet incredibly difficult question! It would definitely be something in my first language, not English. Maybe something to do with nature, I wouldn't want the title to be very straightforward. Ah, I don't know, I think that I haven't lived and seen enough to come up with a proper title just yet!
 
4. What TV show would you live in?
I watch a lot of crime and historic shows, but I wouldn't want to live in any of them. It would have to be something fun. Like Friends. I could basically lead a normal yet slightly more hilarious life. That would be nice.
 
5. Pet peeve of yours?
There are so many, haha! But I really can't stand it when people chew really loudly. It drives me nuts.
 
6. 3 most played songs on your ipod?
Currently: David Bowie - Young Americans
Florence and The Machine - Lover to Lover
Of Monsters and Men - Mountain Sound
 
7. What are some ocd like habits of yours?
When I'm drawing I need everything to be perfect. And if something doesn't turn out the way I had planned, I completely loose the will to draw any further. That's why most of my drawings are unfinished.
 
8. You wouldn't be caught dead, where?
In an adult store, brothel or any hateful and brainwashing society/club/cult.
 
9. What do you miss most about being a kid?
Not having a care in the world and enjoying every little thing about life! There's far too much stress in my life right now. Also, having a lot of free time.
 
10. Guilty pleasure?
Documentaries about crime or weird/crazy things/people. I watch them when I'm exhausted and need to clear my brain. They're great as a background noise while drawing too.
 
11. What will it say on your tombstone?
Nothing, hopefully, because I don't want a tombstone. I'd rather be cremated.
 
My questions for you, folks:
1. If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
2. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?
3. What were your highs and lows of this year?
4. What is your favorite hair color?
5. What do you look for when it comes to making friends?
6. What are your three favorite movies and/or books?
7. What's your favourite season?
8. Who has inspired you in your life and why?
9. What are you looking forward to in the next week?
10. Do you fall for people easily?
11. What makes you laugh no matter what?

1. Why'd your parents name you the name you have?
Ahh, there is no interesting story, I'm afraid. My parents just liked this name and that's all there is to it. It wasn't too popular at the time, yet it was pretty simple and quite nice, I suppose.

2. Do you like your handwriting?
It's not bad, but I wish it was prettier :)

3. Last thing you ate?
Caramel ice-cream. Yum!

4. Are you a hopeless romantic like me? :)
In a way. I am a hopeless dreamer, but I am also a hopeless cynic. It all depends on my mood and the people I'm with.

5. If you could have lunch with five people dead or alive, which 5 people would you pick?
I love this question!
Wilde, Van Gogh, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven and Darwin.
(it was so hard to pick only five people)

6. What's one of your biggest regrets?
Being afraid of just being myself for the most part of my life.
