Three screen names I've had: itisthequestion, thelastboyscout, livebabylive.
Three things you like about yourself: natural build, curiosity, business-mind.

Three parts of my heritage: lower-middle class upbringing, integrity and values from my parents,underachievement at school.

Three people you want to know these things about: Rantscribe, TheDodge, AquilaOnline (Kyknoord, of the bloggers I know, you started this business, so I know about you)
Natalie Portman? Woah, never saw that one coming.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm loyal about these things. :)
ReplyDeleteAt Last!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are interesting "persona" with quite diverse tastes. I like... hehehe.
This is like "100 things about me" I've seen on other blogs. I love this idea. I want to do something like that but I'll have to start a more personal blog than the one I have right now -- something more anonymous as my current one is tied into my career and there are certain things you just can't reveal and expect to be taken seriously...
ReplyDeleteChitty: Thank you.
ReplyDeleteChitty: "I like... hehehe" ???
Andrea: Yeah it is funny how we form pictures of people through their blogs. I have discovered more about a few bloggers and it is interesting how they might be different to what we imagine, be it looks, home language, etc. I also use my blog to be honest about things more difficult to share with people who might know me, so I have also been careful.
My bad. I meant to say I like the screen name, livebabylive.
ReplyDeleteHey there, Rantscribe here. Thanks for tagging me. Don't know if I've got time to fill it out though. I do a weekly column on www.mrspencer.co.za (Used to be called Caned and Unable, now Himology - under my name Rob Dickens). Go check it out. Otherwise, glad to hear from you, have a good 1.
