First time in a long time

It's been a while since I've done one of these, but when I read Andromeda's tag post and saw the questions in her list I thought it'd be fun to do it! So here goes:


1. What did you want to be when you were little?
A Private Detective. It probably has to do with the fact that I've always loved the mystery murder genre. I liked reading everything from Nancy Drew to Agatha Christie and in between and I guess for some reason I felt that the life of a private detective must be fun, exciting and irresistibly chic.

I don't know at what point I gave up on that dream, probably when I realized that living in the itsy bitsy little town of Valladolid didn't provide much in the way of "interesting plots".

2. What one place makes you the happiest being there?
I had to think about this one for a while. At first I was about to write that the place that makes me the happiest doesn't exist anymore because Tulum has changed so much in the recent years that it no longer is that wonderful, fun, filled-with-loving memories-from-my-childhood place it used to be.

But now, I realize that the place that makes me the happiest is the comfy spot on the sofa where my head perfectly fits in a snuggle with Hubby's shoulder and his arm has the necessary space to wrap around my waist while we lay wrapped in each others arms watching TV. Cheezy, but pure heaven.

3. Do you wish your first kiss was with someone else?
No. Although it was not perfect, it was with the right person at the right moment in my life.

4. What's one thing you wish you could tell your 16-year-old self?
That the sooner you start taking care of yourself and your body the easier it is getting into the habit of living a healthy happy life.

5. What movie do you never get tired of watching?
The Bourne Identity. Matt Damon as Jason Bourne makes my body melt like Ben & Jerry's abandoned in the Sahara desert.

6. What movie do you wish you had never seen?
Any one of the Twilight or Harry Potter movies. They just SCREWED the books!

7. How much time do you admit spending on facebook in a week? How much time do you actually spend on facebook?
Hard to say. Not exactly addicted to facebook but I do like checking in every once in a while throughout the day. I only have 47 friends so checking in doesn't take too long... what takes time is typing answers and replies on my iPhone and getting them loaded on the web with a crappy 3G signal!!!

8. Who do you miss most at this exact moment?
Right, right now? Hubby, because he's been in London for a whole week apartment hunting and I've missed him immensely (how are we ever going to survive this summer?!).

On a regular basis? My best friend Alba who doesn't have access to a computer nor internet, who's working hours conflict with a 7 hour time difference and whose cell phone works only when she has money in it (not often!). I miss talking to her as if she was my very own sister!! (who I also miss a lot but who is coming to visit us in 2 days so Yay!!)

9. Where are you going tomorrow? Why?
If you mean tomorrow literally, the answer is Nowhere. Ivory Coast is playing Brazil and Portugal is playing North Corea!!

If you mean in life, then London first, who knows later.... Why? Because the day I'll feel trapped or stagnated in a place is the day I'll die.

10. If you had a gift card for plastic surgery and HAD to use it (witness protection or something), what would you get done?
ahahahahah! I have thought of this one lots of times, as most women probably do. Hopefully it wouldn't have to be for witness protection because that means I'd have to make myself irrecognizable which I don't really want to be. But sometimes I do wish I could wave a magic wand and correct the lower part of my body which is in my opinion somewhat disproportionate to the upper part. *sigh*.... sadly no such wands exists and I'm too much of a coward to consider going under the knife....


So there you go! I've been tagged. I like the way Andromeda put it in regards to others following up:

".... Instead of tagging specific people, I'll leave it open to everyone (plus I can't keep track of who's already been tagged, lol). If you're reading this sentence, consider yourself tagged! And leave a comment if you're going to do it, so I can learn a little more about all of you! ..."

Fned.
