29. SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS?

I like romcoms thus I have a very unrealistic view towards life and relationships because of it.

45. WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE SUBJECT TO TALK ABOUT?
Wines! I even took WSETs for it.

46. ARE YOU AN INTROVERT OR AN EXTROVERT?
Introvert. I get drained after entertaining a huge crowd. If I am nervous around people, I babble too. So I guess that's why I get tired.

47. HAVE YOU EVER BROKEN UP WITH A FRIEND?
Yes, ofcourse. At some point, you just have to get rid of people who don't add value to your life. There are friends who make you feel bad or bring out the worst in you. You really don't need those people. You're better off alone.

48. If YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE NOW, WHERE WOULD YOU BE AND WHAT WOULD YOU BE DOING?
I always have an answer for this. If I am not married to S, I'd be living as an expat somewhere in Asia or Europe. I'd be in my office drinking coffee while reading my emails at this very moment.
If I answered this question on a weekend, I'd be in a cafe, reading the papers or a book while drinking coffee and eating bread.

49. WHAT THINGS ARE YOU WILLING TO SPEND ON?
Food. I'm willing to spend a month's salary  to eat in a Michelin rated restaurant.
Travel. I don't do backpacking.
Shoes. If I can buy one expensive thing annually, I'll buy a pair of nice shoes.

50. ARE YOU HAPPY?
Yes. Happiness is a state of mind and is a choice. I choose to be happy.


Now we are best friends,
