Wow you’re a really interesting person! I’ll try my best, but many will be pretty standard since i’m not that interesting. 1. I have a bit of a thing for very fine body hair on guys. Legs and armpits in particular. I don’t know why, it’s just nice to run your fingers through! 2. I’m 17 years old, and will be 18 next month. 3. Both my mum and her identical twin had endometriosis, so i probably have it too. My mum also had cancer, and my dad died from it 7 years ago, so i’m also more likely to get that :/ 4. I have been obsessed with Bob Dylan ever since my then-boyfriend sent me the song ‘Sara’ saying it reminded him of me two years ago. 5. I love acting and writing, perhaps writing a little more. I always thought it was a pipe dream until I landed a place on the best scriptwriting and acting university course in the whole country, which only accepts 6 people every year, and has produced many successful alumni including some amazing authors, an oscar-winning scriptwriter and the current Doctor Who, Matt Smith! Eek! 6. I’m a Christian Universalist. To me, God is literally all powerful love, and each religion is a different interpretation of him. 7. I’m 5’5″ and a UK size 10 8. I’ve been revising almost constantly recently for my A Level exams in a few weeks, as i desperatly want to get A*AA. One A is confirmed already, and an A is incredibly likely in another (judging by my coursework i have to get a C in my exam to get an A) but I want to get it up to an A*, which is very very difficult. The other one depends really – i’m good enough but my exam technique is awful! 9. I tend to like the music that nobody else likes, and much prefer the voices of those who have rusty voices and barely bit the notes to polished professional singers. My favourite singer shouts when he gets passionate and has a fairly obvious lisp! 10. I hate my arms. I have this genetic skin condition which means my upper arms are red, bumpy and dry. YUM! 11. I was the first ever contestant to play ferrety Trousers on Dick ad Dom in da Bungalow! 12. I’ve had depression before, and am kind of at risk now. I’ve also struggled with bulimia and have the mindset of an anorexic. At the moment, I feel disgusted with myself if I eat more than 1000 calories in a day. 13. I went to Uganda to do volunteer work last summer and it was the best experience of my life!

Li Ching-Yun claimed that the secret to his long life was sitting like a tortoise, sleeping like a dog, walking sprightly like a pigeon and keeping a quiet heart. He shared this information with a warlord that wanted to know what to do to live that long. Li insisted that peace of mind and calmness were the main contributors to his long life. For those that wonder what the man ate, you will be surprised to learn that he mainly consumed rice and wine.
