1) When you were little, what did you want to be? A vet, zookeeper or park ranger

2) Now you are not so little, what do you want to be? (have you succeeded in becoming this yet?) I want David Attenborough's job. Animal/biological researcher type. And I am on my way, studying biology at the moment.

3) What's the most expensive item of clothing / accessory you own? Do you wear it often? Ummm. Possibly the bridesmaid dress from my brother's wedding. It doesn't fit me anymore. :(

4) What's your party trick? Blabbing about My Little Ponies or obscure scientific facts.

5) Smooth OJ or bits? OJ combined with other juices. Smooth

6) Are you tidy or messy? A bit of both, I like to be tidy and clean tho.

7) If you could change one thing about your appearance, other than weight, what would it be? I'd make my skin eczma free.

8) If money was no object, and it was 100% safe, would you get this done? (why / why not?) Possibly. They've yet to find a surefire cure for eczma yet.

9) Me becoming a police officer - cool or scary? Neat.

10) How many online communities are you a member of? Lots.

11) What's the weirdest one? Not sure, possibly Childfree. Interesting stuff comes up there.

12) How many hours per day are you online? too many. As much as I can, just wait till I get ADSL. *grinz*

13) Do you think this is too much? Probably, I spend too much time in front of the computer.

14) Why have you answered my survey? I wanted to answer to the first 2 questions to show that my goals when I was little and my goals now are very similar. I went through a phase of wanting to be an actor or writer or youth worker but I got over that thank God.

Just cuz.

I was actually pondering this on the way home.

Why do 99% of people treat regular driving as a competition sport? Relax people, 5 minutes isn't really that much of a difference and no, we are not all impressed when you hoon past and dodge through traffic and generally do stupid stuff.

Sometime last week I was driving along Roe Hwy and this truck appeared my butt. That happens, I shrug. He puts his lights on, doesn't flash them, just turns them on... whatever. Truck in left lane is doing about 85/90, I am doing 90. He is stuck in a rolling roadblock.

It's a 100 zone but I am doing 90 because the car in front is doing 90. I do not tailgate, even not tailgating I have twice gone into the back of a car so these days I am extra cautious and leave the 3 car gap (which people usually jump into, causing me to slow up MORE *rolls eyes*).

Then stupid truckie HONKS me. I'm like "Hello! If you pay a scad of attention you'll see that even if I did briefly speed up to get up the arse of the car in front, I would still be doing 90 because THE CAR IN FRONT IS DOING 90!!" I can't magically go faster than the car in front moron.

I reckon everyone who speeds to overtake deserves a fine because they are AWARE that they are speeding. When I am sitting dead on the speed limit and 5 cars pass me within 10 seconds there is a problem. Can I please have a multanova installed on the front of my car to catch these dickheads??
