1. Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

In 10 years, I’ll be nearly 30. God, that sounds old. Well, when I’m 30 I’d like to have my own beautiful house with a nice big garden, a bunch of happy rescued dogs running around me and a couple of kids :) Or at least one on the way, I’d like to be a young mummy. I have no idea what I’d be doing for a job, I guess I’ll need some money somehow. Honestly I’d love to set up my own business but nothing too big. Cris and I have talked about maybe running a livery yard, or a cattery/kennels, although that’s very ambitious. All I want is enough money to feed myself and my family, and to still be healthy and happy.

2. Which celebrity (male AND female) do you have a secret crush on?

Male you already know because I made a post about it (which I now can’t find, or else I’d link it). As for female…well, I have a lot. Amber Heard has to be somewhere at the top of the list, and Olivia Wilde too. Oh, and Megan Fox before the plastic surgery. 

3. Most embarrassing moment in your life that you will never forget. 

I don’t remember that many really embarrassing moments, a few that are kind of embarrassing, but not that bad. If I think of one, I’ll post it.

4. What are your views on open relationships? Would you be able to be in one? 

Oh darling, of course you posted this! Open relationships are absolutely fine to me, if it’s between consenting adults I see no problem whatsoever. I honestly have no idea if I’d be able to be in one. I think I could probably be with two people at the same time, but I’m too possessive to allow them to be in the same situation, so it would be a little greedy and unfair. I don’t like sharing my toys :) And especially not you, Koala.

5. If you could go back in time and talk to your 15 year old self, what you say to them?

Stop being so stupid. It’ll all work out eventually. Keep hold of that cute blonde girl you kind of sort of really like and don’t let anybody come between you. Oh, and start riding lessons, so that by the time you’re 20, you’re a pro :)

6. What is your ideal holiday destination, including the kind of things you’d like to do while you’re there?

Alberta! Okay, maybe not ideal, but pretty close. I am really looking forward to the beautiful scenery, lakes, trees, maybe glimpsing a few bears, and just being outdoors. And of course, the horse riding. apart from that, my ideal destination is just somewhere I haven’t been before, with the person I love, exploring.

7. Would you be able to kill another human being in self-defense?

Probably, yes. If they threatened me or a loved one. I don’t know if I’d be physically strong enough to fight somebody off if they suddenly attacked me, although I would try. But if I had enough time to think of a strategy and weigh up the pros and cons, I think I could.

8. List three things that you think make you a bit weird.

- I think of food 24 hours a day. No exaggeration, at least once every hour (even when asleep I’m sure) I’ll be thinking of my next meal, or my previous one if it was really good. Cris hates it when I ask her what she wants for dinner before we’ve even had breakfast, but I just really look forward to preparing nice meals. I could eat all day, if my body could handle it.

- I get bored of things quite quickly. I’ll either be totally obsessed by something and dedicate all my time, energy and funds to it, or completely ignore it. I often go between the two. There aren’t many things that hold my interest for a long time (philosophy included - so boring right now), but food, animals and Cris are three of them.

- My favourite feeling in the world is getting into bed completely clean and naked after a bubble bath when you’ve just changed the sheets. I love it so much - I get in and smell the fresh cotton and just wriggle around stretching out my legs and making ‘mmm’ noises because it’s just. so. good….

Okay, none of them are that weird, but maybe you have to get to know me better to discover the weird things, because I think generally I’m quite normal.

9. Ideally, what kind of animals would you have and how many of each?

Difficult question, because I’m not planning that far ahead. I’ll take in animals as often as I can, as often as they come up, but not beyond my limits.

I know that eventually I want quite a few dogs, maybe 4 or 5 maximum, and only medium/large dogs unless a particularly cute, needy small one popped up. No breed preference and crosses would be fine, but I want a nice little pack to keep me company and to protect me. In the immediate future (the next year or so), I want one puppy for myself to train very well and to be a permanent companion. Preferably male and long-haired, maybe some kind of border collie cross or something spitz-y (I really like Finnish lapphunds). I like the name Remus for a boy, and at the moment, Katniss for a girl, partly because the character is very cool, and partly because I like the thought of a dog named Kat.

Further down the line, I’d love to have a horse, but that’s a distant dream. I would never take on that commitment unless I knew I could look after it properly for the rest of its life, and give it the life it deserves.

I’d also have a few fat barn cats, for good measure. A house isn’t completely without a few cats wandering around.

And I suppose, as many other strays as Cris wants to take in…no doubt we’ll end up with a whole herd of horses, innumerable dogs and cats, and a good handful of rodents and snakes that nobody else wants. Oh, and I’d also like some chickens for eggs and maybe a goat or two for milk.

I think that’s all ;)

10. Are you the kind of person that finds it really hard to throw things away or do you not get attached to material things?

There are a few things I’m very attached to, but most of the time, I have no problem getting rid of it if I don’t need it.

11. Why did you decide to start a Tumblr blog?

Basically because I found so many blogs that I like reading that it was too hard to keep up, so I followed them instead and decided that I might as well start my own, mostly for reblogging.

So that’s it! @fictionalistic, I’m going to answer your questions too later on :)
