Tell-all Tuesdays:
Before you ask any question

You ask, I tell. Selection of questions posted on Tuesdays.

How many men have you slept with?
Very few, I rarely truly fall asleep with another person in bed with me. Read this.

Why’d you and the morgan waters show break up????????
I’ve never been in a relationship with a television show.

Would you ever want to try again with the one who got away? I feel like he took a little piece of your heart and every time you write about him it makes me misty in the eye.
The magic of writing about how you feel in regards to people you care for is that those feelings are generally universal. At any given moment I could be writing about anyone, or several ones and/or in reference to one or many applicable instances.



Yes, a long time ago, there was one who took a giant piece of my heart. Maybe even an entire ventricle. Not so much because he ‘got away’ than the fact that he made a conscious decision to be with someone else. I have absolutely no desire to be recklessly in love, under-appreciated and humiliated again.



As for the men who’ve chipped away at the little pieces after that, well, none of our relationships had passed the point of no return. You never know what could happen.



Thank you for reading, though. Dry your eyes, mate.

I think you reveal quite a bit about yourself on the internet. Why do you do that?
I’ve been blogging as early as geocities was around. It started with sharing photos and thoughts with friends long before the advent of facebook. Coming from an international school, my social circle was scattered across the world in the final years of high school. It then became natural for me to document compulsively. I found my outlet for creativity. 



Some people keep their diaries locked up under their beds, I keep mine on the internet. Maybe someone will read something and think “yes, me too” or laugh a little or gain an understanding of another’s perspective.



I don’t want to be alone with my memories.

What is something that not many people know about you?
I’m irrationally afraid of my own mortality. For example, I once walked out of the Simpsons movie (SIMPSONS!) because the scene set in the future where they live in a bubble made me realise I wasn’t going to be alive in year 20-whatever and had a panic attack.

What’s your favourite song right now?
I’m Not the Sun by Arkells. Meredith introduced me to it a few months ago and I still haven’t tired of it.

Are you a sports fan? Who are your favorite teams?
Depends on the sport and the game. Lakers (Basketball), England (Football), Canada (Life).

Got a question for me? Ask away here.

Do you know how to poach an egg?
You break it.
Expel into a vat of boiling water. Right in the eye of its cyclonic swirl.
Watch the yolk envelop within a weaker skin.
