16. Most embarrassing moment of your life so far

Image
I am very much so what you would call an awkward person. Being naturally clumsy throughout my life has resulted in many countless embarrassing moments. It even seems like I am becoming less affected by humiliation. For example, I had managed to walk straight into a pole the other week and despite many people being around to witness the incident, I couldn't have cared less. Having said this, it may have been a one off because there have been plenty of other examples where I have been so  embarrassed I wished I could just curl up and dissapear. One of the worst cases of this was only a few years ago. I had to stop off at the shop to buy a few ingredients for the food tech lesson later that day. It seemed a simple enough task and I had done it many times before so I didn't expect anything to go wrong. However, before I had even made it to the co-op across from school, I managed to trip as I stepped onto the pavement and fell to my knees. The matter was made worse by the ...

15. Favourite music video

Image
Smooth Criminal  I don't think I have ever had just one favourite music video and admitedly, I don't watch them as much as other people do yet I would say I have some knowledge, though it may be limited, with music videos. Firstly, as a child I would always enjoy watching any of Michael Jackson's music videos because whatever he creates is always amazing but choosin just one proved to be more difficult than I had ecpected. However, I came to the conclusion that one of my all time favourites has to be smooth criminal. I remember as a child tring to (and failing) to copy Michael Jacken's legendary dance moves in this video as he shows them off in his iconic white suit, completed with white hat.

14. Favourite tv advert

Image
With tv adverts constantly changing, I never have just one favourite at a time. At the moment, I couldn't think of one I particualalry enjoy but this may be becuase of the fact that I'm watching less tv and therefore, am seeing less adverts. However, I can think of many classic adverts that I still see such as the Comparethemarket.com and GoCompare.com I don't think I will ever forget the Cadbury's Gorill advert, it is a shared favourite for both me and my dad. el But, I can't write about favourite tv adverts without mentioning a John Lewis Chritstmas advert. Each year, so many, including myself look forward to what tear-jerking, emotional advert the brand has created. It makes the Christmas season just that bit more special. Out of the many, I think my favourite has to be the Bear and the Hare (2013).

9.Which person, real or fictional, dead or alive, would you most like to meet?

Image
Audrey Hepburn  Beautiful, sophisticated and iconic are just the first three words that come to mind when I think of Audrey Hepburn. Admittedly, I don't know much about her and, unlike today where celebrites can go on talkshows and interviews, it is difficult to find out a lot. But I wouldn't want to just bombard her with questions, instead I would love to be able to get to know her and understand the life she lived. Just simply being in her presence and getting a glimpse of what she was like and the life she lived would be more than I could ever wish.

8.Best tv/film adaptation of a book you've ever seen?

Image
The Hunger Games Unfortunately, my list of film adaptations of books that I have actually read is regrettably quite short but out of them all, the Hunger Games is at the top. From being a major fan myelf a few years ago, I have seen how large the fan base is of the whole series and it all began with the first book and first film.  I thoughroughly enjoyed the book, beginning to end, I found it to be incredibly captivating and suspenseful and I believe that the producers and cast of the film did the book complete justice.

7. In which literary/fictonal location would you most like to live in?

Image
The fictional world of Harry Potter  It may be one of the most cliche and predictable responses to the question and I did spend quite a lot of time debating and thinking of other ideas. Some of these ideas included Wonderland, Neverland, Narnia and the Shire. All would be exciting to explore, and would be an amazing adventure but I couldn't get the idea of what it would be like to live in the Harry Potter universe out of my head. I would also have to be attending Hogwarts, Firstly, the school's architecture is one of the most breathtaking from any fictional place,  I would love to be able to wander around the great halls and corridors with crystal chandeliers hanging above, whislt walking past talking painting and walking up the moving stairs.  Although The Shire's has the most beautiful scnenery, I feel it would be too quiet, I would need more people around, especailly ones my age to keep me from getting bored. A school full of magic st...
