Another nicked meme...

Meme nicked shamelessly off [personal profile] elina_elsu .

Put the answers into Google image search, and post one picture from the first image results page that comes up.

A pleasant diversion. Hours of fun! ;-)

The age you will be on your next birthday

On Monday!

A place you’d like to travel


Your favourite place


Your favourite object


Your favourite food


Your favourite animal


Your favourite colour


The town in which you were born

Makes it look almost like a nice place... :-P

The town in which you live


The first name of a past love

This still counts if it was unrequited and he turned out to be, to quote Pratchett/Gaiman, "gayer than a treeful of monkeys on nitrous oxide", right? :-S
(He's a mate, though, and now has a lovely boyfriend. :-))

The name of a past pet

Current one, as he's the first. Currently kindly distributing hair all over my good work trousers and meeping happily even as I type.

Your best friend's nickname



Your nickname/screen name

Nickname, as put in my screen name and I just get all mine and my friends' LJ icons. :-D

Your first name

A damn sight better than all the pr0n pics that popped up (grr...).

I mean, they weren't even good/imaginative/original pr0n...

Your middle name

I share it with a hurricane!

Your surname

My, we suddenly have an American Lieutenant Colonel in the family!

A bad habit of yours


Your first job

Lab tech in a soil analysis place. Mucky, but sort of fun.

Your grandmother's name


Trust me, this was the most tasteful option that popped up. :-P

Your major in college

Sadly, there are days when this feels very true indeed.

Firstly; you worked in a soil analysis place?! FO SRSLY? How... Holmes. That's cool. This meme is also cool. Guh, tired.

For real. I was there for 6 months; I used to haul 25-30kg bags of earth and rocks about the place, and record the 'Particle Distribution Analysis', which basically means I would tip it all through a series of sieves and note the weight retained on each layer, right down to mixing it with peroxide and using the micro-scales to measure evaporation.

I also accidentally smashed £350 worth of delicate glassware in a fortnight there, so I suspect they were glad to get rid of me when I left. ;-)

Really mucky and badly-paid, but I defy anybody to NOT find playing with pressure-hoses and piles of mud fun. XD

ETA - "How...Holmes" - LOL! The precise evaporation bits, yes; the getting covered in shit and sediment part, maybe not. ;-)
