My questions are about your kitties!


1. All together, how many kitties have you had?


2. Which one of your kitties (past or present) is your favourite? Maybe they did something special or extra cute?


3. Why did you name your current kitties what you did?


4. Have you got any other pets besides your kitties? If so what animal are they, what are their names and how do they interact with your kitties? Maybe they curl up together?


5. If you could swap places with one of your cats, which one would it be, why would you swap with them in particular and what would you do?

2. Which one of your kitties (past or present) is your favourite? Maybe they did something special or extra cute?Lucky is my baby... I love her to pieces - maybe because I have had her for longer, but she is my heart kitty

3. Why did you name your current kitties what you did? Lucky because she was rescued from the shelter days before she was going to be PTS. I adopted her when nobody wanted... She was a shy kitty...

4. Have you got any other pets besides your kitties? If so what animal are they, what are their names and how do they interact with your kitties? Maybe they curl up together?Only my two babies

5. If you could swap places with one of your cats, which one would it be, why would you swap with them in particular and what would you do? Lucky - because she is spoiled to death, and have a great personality! I would just eat, sleep and get spoiled!

Ah haaaa
This gonna be fun girl
Prepare to be bombarded with ?'s


1. What would your dream vacation be? (a cruise to some exotic island, a trainride across the country, etc.)

2. Do you believe in ghosts?

3. Would you accept $1 000 000 to leave the country and never step foot back in it again?

4. Do you prefer being around men or women? (as in are most of your friends male or female, which do you get along with better)

5. Your house, containing everything you own, catches fire. After saving your loved ones and pets, you have time to safely make a final dash to save any one item. What would it be?

6. Given the choice of anyone in the world (alive or dead), whom would you chose to meet?

to be continued......

to be continued......
1. What would your dream vacation be? (a cruise to some exotic island, a trainride across the country, etc.) My dream vacation would be a few months driving around Europe... With no destination in sight - just driving, seeing, eating, enjoying... With enough money to do whatever I wanted to do, whenever I wanted!

2. Do you believe in ghosts? Oh yeah! Have seen it many times... I am a "medium", not by choice, but...

3. Would you accept $1 000 000 to leave the country and never step foot back in it again?Yep - I would retire in Brasil; that money would go a long way there!


4. Do you prefer being around men or women? (as in are most of your friends male or female, which do you get along with better) I would say 1/2 and 1/2... I have great man friends, girl friends and a few gay friends - I get along well with all kinds. I think being a good person is independent of gender.

5. Your house, containing everything you own, catches fire. After saving your loved ones and pets, you have time to safely make a final dash to save any one item. What would it be? My laptop and cell phone

6. Given the choice of anyone in the world (alive or dead), whom would you chose to meet? Bill Clinton - and yes, he would be the person I would chose to be stuck in a desert island with

1. do you have any tattoos? If so, what and do they have meanings behind them that you are comfortable sharing. Yes, I have 4 tattoos - one on my leg that I got when I was 16... it's an eagle - I hate it, and will revise it pretty soon. Three on my lower back: One tribal design across the lower back, a little girl devil, and an angel, so I am spiritually balanced


2. do you have any piercings? aside from the ears. My nose is pierced, but after I went "corporate", I removed my nose ring.

3. Have you ever held a snake? If so, did you enjoy it or were you uncomfortable? Yes, I held a boa at my mom's house... It was fine, I was not afraid... She just wrapped around my arm a little too tight; I am sure I was not handling her correctly


4. What is on your MP3 player right now? (or cd player, whatever fits) I have about 3,000 songs in my Ipod, too many to list! The complete Beatles collection, Complete James Taylor, Complete Pink Floyd, Complete Eagles... Love Bruce Springsteen, the listed above, Santana... I love old school classic rock

5. How many tvs do you have? 2

6. What is your all time favorite bought chocolate? It's a Brasilian white chocolate called LAKA. I love white chocolate; milk chocolate is my second favorite. Lyndt is my regular "fix"

7. Whats your favorite colour, least favorite colour? Red is my favorite - I think my least would be gray... but it all depends on what it is going to be used for...

8. What's your favorite movie? Tough one... Ok, you will find this silly: Harry Potter! I also loved Love Actually. I LOVE Hugh Grant!

9. What's your favorite book? Ahhh.... you know it is Harry Potter!
I also love anything written by Gabriel Garcia Markez, especially Love in the times of Cholera, and 100 years of solitude - fantastic writer!


10. Have you ever been anywhere on an actual holiday/vacation? (not counting your work trips and excluding Brasil because it is where you were born) Sure! As far as in different countries, England, Germany, Argentina, Uruguay. I go frequently to LA to hang out with my friends, and to Indianapolis to hang with my cousin. Have been in Vegas quite a few times for pleasure, although I don't like it that much... New Orleans, Grand Canyon, Yosemite, San Diego, San Francisco... I love traveling!! This year I plan to go often to Mexico, since my brother is moving overthere, and will for sure spend Christmas in Brasil

When did you come to this country? 1996 - it's going to be 13 years! I became a Citizen in 2008 so I could vote - now I am an American too!!!

What do you like best about living in the US?Oh my - there are so many things I love about America! I love the fact that you can do what you love, no matter what it is, and earn a living out of it. I love the safety, and the fact that you can count on the police and fire department for protection and help. I love the diversity of people, races, ethnicities and religions... I love the fact that human life and well being has the ultimate value in society. I love the freeways!
I love that we have access to the best and newest technologies... I love the people... I love that the government works with much less bureaucracy than other countries... I can go on and on and on!


What do you like best about life in Brazil?In Brasil you work to live, and not the other way around... Families are much closer, and life is simpler... You have a job, you work your 8 hours a day, and enjoy your off time with family and friends... I love the weather, the beautiful beaches, going out for a little bar on the beach on sandals... Having my family close to me... The fact that parents have more time with their kids, longer vacations and full paid retirement for life... I love the fact that people comes first, and money is not the reason for living... Life is not as fast and hectic - there is a better balance in between your work and personal life. I miss it a lot, and will go back one day... My dream is to have a company here with a branch in there, so I can have the best of both Worlds!


What is your favorite cuisine?Indian!

Do you like to cook and if so, what is your "signature" dish? I love cooking - my signature dish is Shrimp on coconut Sauce

If you were granted three wishes by a genie, what would they be?That I would be healthy physically and emotionally until the day I die. Have the money to do whatever I want whenever I want, wherever I want! Health and happiness for all my friends and family

2. Would you be willing to eat a bowl full of crickets for $40K ? How about 5K?

3. You are given $1 000 000 to donate anonymously to charity or to a stranger. How would you dispose of it?

4. In conversations, do you tend to listen or talk more? (edit: Nevermind this one, you answered it in the 25 things one LOL)

5. If you decided to do something and your friends strongly advised you not to, could you do it anyway?

more to come.
