A. People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blog and replace any question that they dislike with a new, original question.
B. Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.
001: What are your nick-names?
Uhm... I don't really have a commonly used nickname. My family calls me Mike, for some reason nobody knows.
002: Commando?
No. Just - no.
003: What do you intend to do differently this year?
Be kinder to myself.
004: How many colours are you wearing right now?
Four. Dark blue, pink, white, black.
005: How do you style your hair?
I brush it. Style doesn't really come into it.
006: What was the last book you read?
Last book I completed was "The wayward debutante" by Sarah Elliot. I'm currently reading Nick Hornby's "A long way down" as well as Tom Segev's "The first Israelis" and at work there's a Karl May novel that I read during lunch breaks.
007: Favorite ice cream flavor?
THe local ice cream parlour had a very tasty cherry ice cream two years ago which they unfortunately discontinued. Otherwise, pineapple or lemon.
008: What's the weather like now?
Dark, foggy, cold.
009: Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?
Trying to figure out my feelings over my grandmother's death. Unhappy news about friends.
010: What are you most scared of?
Teenagers. Seriously.
011: How long does it actually take to get ready in the morning?
I can make it in half an hour from getting out of bed to being ready to leave, including shower and breakfast. Usually, I give myself up to 90 minutes.
If necessary, I can be out of bed, clean, dressed and ready to leave in five minutes, though. Ten if I wash my hair.
012: What websites do you visit daily?
None daily, but if I go online I check my mails and LJ.
013: What classes are you taking right now? And, if not in school, what is your profession?
I'm a librarian in an institution where very few people read.
014: Do you like to clean?
Most of the time, yes. Doing dishes is my form of morning meditation, actually.
015: What the last song stuck in your head?
"Stop the cavalry" by Jona Lewie
016: Hollywood/Celebrity crush?
Not really. Some I wouldn't push from my bedside, but no real crushes.
017: What hobbies would you like to take up if money/time/ability were no obstacle?
Kickboxing or a similar activity.
018: What colour do you look best in?
Fortunately, I can wear a lot of colours. White is worst.
019: What states or other places do you wish to visit in 2009?
I plan a biking tour along parts of the Loire. And maybe visits to come European cities. I've never been to Amsterdam except on the airport, I only know the train station in Strasbourg - that's the sort of thing that needs to be remedied.
020: What are you most looking forward in the next month?
There's not really anything on next month that I know of already.
Okay, whom do I tag? I hate tagging people. But anyway.

Brains are weird creatures.
