My answers to questions from Chinedu Victor:

1. What does life mean to you?

This is a deep question, and I’m not really sure how to answer it! Life can be good and also difficult. I try to do things every day that make me happy. I worry about wasting my free time, and so always like to be busy during the weekends, and during my holidays.

2. What would you enjoy doing 7 days a week?

I would like to be my own boss. I would enjoy doing something creative, and something that means I need to spend parts of my days outside.

3. What’s your birthday date?

7th April

4. Have you ever had a near-death experience? If yes pls brief us about it

No, although I had an operation when I was 4.

5. Your favourite quote is ?

A day without a smile is a day wasted (Charlie Chaplin)

6. If you could go anywhere in the world where would it be?

India to travel.

7. What’s your dream house?

One day I would like to live in a house with a garden or some land – actually any outdoor space would be nice 🙂 I’d like to grow fruit and vegetables. I wouldn’t like to live too far from a main town/city though, as I enjoy visiting galleries and exhibitions.

8. Most embarrassing moment

I’m not telling!

9. Your biggest fear?

Dying

10. Any regret? If yes what?

No regrets.

11. Who’s your favourite author or speaker, maybe both?.

I like F Scott Fitzgerald for his descriptive style. I also like Charles Dickens and Stephen King because I think they are great storytellers. Danny Wallace makes me laugh.

I don’t read much anymore, and this is something I’d like to get back into.
