Proust (edited)

This is very coincidental, seeing as I just read Vanity Fair, which is a rare occurence, and saw this. Since it's been going around again (Paish, Vero & Victoria!) I figured I'd give it a go.

Also: I just noticed Vero/Paish had more detail so I'm redoing it by adding in all the extras.

WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST FEAR? Unhappiness.
WHAT IS YOUR CURRENT STATE OF MIND? Stressed and looking forward to December 18th.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE OCCUPATION?(WAY OF SPENDING TIME)? Taking a nap in the afternoon with my kitty.
WHAT HISTORICAL FIGURE DO YOU MOST IDENTIFY WITH? Honestly, no idea.
WHICH LIVING PERSON DO YOU MOST ADMIRE? Anyone who dedicates their time to making the world a better place for those less fortunate.
WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE FICTIONAL HERO? The Count of Monte Cristo (does that count?)
WHO ARE YOUR REAL-LIFE HEROES? My grandfather.
WHAT IS YOUR MOST TREASURED POSSESSION? My passport.
WHEN AND WHERE WERE YOU HAPPIEST? Any new city where I was wandering down the streets, or stopping in a cafe and taking in the surroundings.
WHAT IS YOUR MOST OBVIOUS CHARACTERISTIC? Sarcasm & humour. (sarcastic humour?)
WHAT IS THE TRAIT YOU MOST DEPLORE (HATE) IN YOURSELF? That I have a hard time not stressing insignificant things. Working on it.
WHAT IS THE TRAIT YOU MOST DEPLORE IN OTHERS? Dishonesty.

ON WHAT OCCASION DO YOU LIE? When I tell my patients I floss every day, or when it's for someone elses good.
WHICH WORDS OR PHRASES DO YOU MOST OVER-USE? Eh. Leftover Aussie slang, "How ya goin?" and "I concur".
IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE THING ABOUT YOURSELF, WHAT WOULD IT BE? I wouldn't have to work out to get where I want to be!

WHAT IS THE QUALITY YOU MOST ADMIRE IN A WOMAN? Confidence- not putting up with anyone else's BS.
WHAT IS IT YOU MOST DISLIKE? People who douse their food in ketchup. Ew. And smoking.
WHAT DO YOU VALUE MOST IN YOUR FRIENDS? Honesty, someone who "has my back".
HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO DIE? In my sleep (but at a hospital, so no one would have to "find" me.)

WHO HAS BEEN THE GREATEST INFLUENCE ON YOU? The person that had the biggest effect on my life was the co-worker who suggested going to Europe on my holiday. Started an unstoppable chain of events!
