Hi everyone!

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

My room is clean but cluttered. Organised chaos!

I get stuck on Q. Reciting the whole alphabet backwards would be an awesome talent.

Always, I use them when I go camping and I reuse the bottles over and over.

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

My earlobes are attached, I can roll my tongue and my eyes are brown.

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

 My room is pretty overcrowded with stuff and it tends to get pretty messy until I do my monthly clean up. 

 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

 Always get stuck at W and give up, don't think this is something I aspire to do though haha

 

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

 I will use them but I don't take them home only beause I have my own. 

 

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

 Unattached, I used to have 25mm spacers but they have healed up a bit now, I can roll my tongue and have blue eyes.

 

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

I love a lot of sports, fave is probably mma though, least favourite would have to be something boring like golf.

@PC-1991 At the moment, I only do ju jitsu, tai chi and self defense (all in one and a bit club/s) I have done BJJ before at my old club, and found it quite enjoyable.

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

I go from really really messy to really really clean and then back to messy again. I know a clean space is good for my mental health so i make an effort... Sometimes 😛 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

 W

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

Bodywash, yes, shampoo and conditioner, no. I make my own 😛

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

 Free earlobes, can roll toungue and eyes are hazel (which is a fancy word for a weird brown?)

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

At the moment i'm enjoying the Hearthstone world championships which is a card game... on computers... please note i am a huge nerd.

Least favourite has to be Rugby League, sorry if there's any fans here!

 

@hopethepiano i did another one! 🙂

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

It's organised chaos - know where everything is, which is the main thing, right?

 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

I got stuck after X... How embarrassing.

 

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

I used to, but then I realised my hair requires a lot more care than those little bottles can provide! 

 

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

Attached, yes, and brown. 

 

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

I'm not a huge sports fan, but I like going to the soccer with my boyfriend. Least favourite is probably NRL, as I just don't understand it.

Hello everyone! 

 

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

My bed is neat but the tops of my dresser are filled with papers and other random stuff that just don't fit in the drawers. And my closet is full with bags of clothes and other stuff I don't need right nowt. I'm planning on doing some spring cleaning later today and next weekend 🙂

 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

I cannot recite the alphabet backwards. I got up to the letter T but then I realised that I missed out the letter V Smiley Tongue 

 

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

I haven't stayed at a hotel before... But I reckon if I liked the shampoo and conditioner than I might just do it. 

 

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your tongue and what's your eye colour?

My earlobes are free. I can roll my tongue and I have dark brown eyes. 

 

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

Favourite sport: to watch: Snowboarding on the half-pipe because it just looks so cool. 

Least favourite sport to watch: Rugby

Hey guys! Long time in-and-out lurker here. I've been poking around the site for almost two years, but I don't believe I've ever introduced myself, so here goes...

 

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

 

Clean...iiiish. I don't make my bed, but all mess is confined to the bedstand, so it never becomes a tripping hazard. Never understood the point of making the bed, honestly. Sure, it looks prettier, but it's not like anyone else goes into my bedroom and getting under the covers to go to sleep inevitably unmakes the bed anyway. Unless if you pass out on top of the sheets, or something. Which I've tried. It was cold. Would not recommend.

 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

 

Kind of? I usually get caught on m, but I can pick it back up after a moment or two.

 

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

 

Depends on how much room I have in my luggage. I'll take them since if I have the space , let's be honest- they might be "free", but really they were part of the package you paid for. I won't grab them if my suitcase is already full to bursting though. Free lotion isn't worth taking if it means having it exploded all over your luggage.

 

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

 

Attached, yes and brown, with a mild greenish tint on the borders if you look closely. And I swear that's not just my contacts.

 

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

 

Water polo! It's furious, absurd chaos and an absolute blast to play when you have a great team of friends behind you. Matches might only last 30 minutes, but it's a massive workout - plus, the lower elevation means I can actually get more oxygen as an asthmatic and allowing me to stay active for longer. Sure beats marathons. If I wanted to get someplace 20 kilometres quickly, I'd drive.Smiley Tongue

Hey guys! I'm back! Had to sort out a lot of stuff. There's quite a bit which happened but the more the better, right? (I've been lurking around without logging in for a bit though haha)

 

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

Messy. Real messy. +creativity though, right? 

 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

Yep. Spent many days trying it before. I get bored on some days, like everyone else haha. 

 

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

Nope. Someone else who I'm travelling with always takes it anyway so I have no need to lol. 

 

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

Attached. It's also tongue, not toungue (lol) and yes. Several different ways in fact. I've got light brown eyes but it looks like honey in the sun. I love it Smiley Happy 

 

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

 

Tennis! Although I think I've said this before. Least favourite is probably football/rugby stuff. I'm not much of a violent person and it's too rough for me haha.

@Felkyr enjoying the new room so far? I'm also totally envious of people who can run - they make it look so effortless, meanwhile my lungs feel like they're dying after two seconds of running 😛

 

@Faith1 do you play basketball or do you just like to watch? 🙂

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?
Not really messy, not pretty clean, just in between.

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?
No. Z,Y,X is the best I can do.


3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?
Sometimes I do just because of how they look (unique/tiny/cute) but I almost never use them though.

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?
Attached earlobes, I can't roll my tongue and my eyes are brown.

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

 I have a new bedroom as of yesterday. It's my Step-Dad's study, which I merged with his storeroom and took over. Entering; There is a lounge pushed-up against the left wall, which is against the single bed along the back wall. At the foot of the bed is a small entertainment unit which is the perfect height to be able to lay on the bed and use the computer at it. If you were doing that, and look to the right, as I am now, you'd see a window with the curtain pulled shut, and beyond that an open-style wardrobe scarcely filled with clothes, which is beside the entry point. It looks clean at first glance, but this room hasn't been vaccumed in months. I'll need to get on that.

 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

 Hopeless. I had to think about W, and that's only because I refer to XYZ so much in Minecraft or SketchUp.

 

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

 I have done. Though it's been at least a year since I've been to a hotel. I don't know if I would now. I'm pretty sure most of them throw them out regardless of if they look used, but I use anti-dandruf shampoo anyway so it wouldn't do me any good to take it. 

 

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

 They're kinda attached. I can't roll my toungue. My eyes.. well we'll just say they're blue. I've gotten in too many heated debates over that. 

 

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

If gaming is included, I have to say Starcraft II Championships would be one of the more intense things I've watched. As far as 'normal' sports go, I'm fond of snowboarding, skiing, and rally, though I've never tried any of them. My least favourite sport is running, just because it sucks / I'm envious of people who can actually run really well.

Hey everyone, sorry it's been a while!!!

 

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

My bedroom is currently messy Smiley Sad I like when things are clean though- go figure Smiley LOL

 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

No, gotta go back and try again- stuck on Q.

 

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

Hahaha, nah I prefer better quality shampoo and conditioner.

 

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

My earlobes are free, I cannot roll my tongue, and my eye colour is blue. 

 

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

My favourite sport is Touch Football, and I can't really think of my least favourite sport. My favourite olympic sport would have to be swimming but I probably would have also enjoyed the rugby sevens if I caught that.

Hey everyone!!

 

1. Describe the state of your bedroom, are you really messy, or pretty clean?

At the moment it's incredibly clean, since I vaccummed and dusted everything and it's being aired out right now. But generally I'm pretty tidy, and I tend to absently put things away anyways. 

 

2. Can you recite the alphabet backwards? If no, what letter do you get stuck on?

Lol no, got stuck at T

 

3. Do you take the little shampoo and conditioner bottles from hotels? Why, why not?

I used to! But I never use them and they always mess up my hair so I don't bother anymore. I have taken soap though, especially if it smells nice

 

4. Are you earlobes attached or free, can you roll your toungue and what's your eye colour?

Free, I can roll my tongue, and my eyes are brown

 

5. What's your favourite sport and your least favourite? This can include things like gaming not just whatever is in the Olympics these days.

I love watching gymnastics, ice-skating and diving, since the athletes look so graceful! I like playing volleyball and cricket though, especially on the beach
