Do you ever think that you don't dance enough (I know I don't ;_; )?
Favourite shiny things (can be multiple as I understand the difficulties in choosing one!)?
Most irritating characteristic in a person?
Best childhood games/toys?
Do you hold grudges or do you find it easy to forgive people?
More when I think of them.

How and when did you discover your eye make-up artistry talent/hobby? It took me *ages* to remember how this all started. This one time, at bandcamp*, I got a free sample of some new foundation. Up until then, I had no interest whatsoever in makeup (I was in 5th year, so, about 16?). I tried it. I liked it. I boughtededed it. Life was good. Well, for a short period of time. I then decided to buy some really (REALLY) cheap eyeshadows in the beautiful shades of cornflower blue and dark, dark green (don't ask why, I have no idea. Every girl seems to start with blue - it's baffling). These shades flatter no one, in any capacity - you just look like someone punched you. And you, I dunno, added glitter to distract from the bruising. I, however, went around looking like I was constantly in the wars for a good, four days. Then, on The Style Bitches, someone linked me to xsparkage's youtube, and I learned from there how not to look like I had a vicious enemy. I also bought better eye-make-up. All was right in the world again (Sorry you asked? :P)
Ohh and song lyrics... I was listening to my iPod the other night trying to find lyrics I like, and discovered I like some lyric in almost every song. And you know I don't have favourites! So, I just chose some random lyrics I do like. None of them are my *favourite* but mehhh. I also forgot how to count to compensate for the fact I can't choose. Saahhhrrryyy.
"Tell me that you want to dance, I want to feel your pulse on mine
Just treat me like a stolen glance to yourself"
"I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned"
"I climb the fence, the one that you’ve been sitting on"
"To think I might not see those eyes, makes it so hard not to cry, and as we say our long goodbyes... I nearly do".
"Everyone's life ends but no one ever completes it, dry or wet ice, they both melt and you're equally cheated"
"Dr. Jekyll Is Wrestling Hyde, For My Pride…"
"...and said "good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell
are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath,
you wasted life, why wouldn't you waste death"
"If you feel discouraged, When there's a lack of colour here, Please don't worry lover, It's really bursting at the seams, From absorbing everything, The spectrum’s A to Z."
"It stung like a violent wind that our memories depend
On a faulty camera in our minds"
"When you look at me with your cinematic eyes
I wanna play the part but I'm messing up the lines"
I know I'm missing some lyrics that I really, really love, but can't remember them off hand, and amn't arsed listening to every song on my iPod to find 'em... So many lyrics

. Did it for the junior cert, and the only part of it I liked was my Michaelangelo essay, so um... the Renaissance?
*I've never been to bandcamp. My inability to play an instrument is the reason for this, I assume.

Do you ever think that you don't dance enough (I know I don't ;_; )?
"Dancing makes you brave. People don’t dance enough." - I love this quote, and I have no idea why. Your question just reminded me of it
But to actually answer what you asked, I definitely don't dance enough. I blame you *nod* I mean, wasn't it you who chose to sit in the tiniest corner downstairs in Doyles? For shame, Aoibheann. :P (<3 dancing so much) We need to dance until our legs hurt soon *moar nods*
Favourite shiny things (can be multiple as I understand the difficulties in choosing one!)? Glitter-y makeup. And sequined bags.
Most irritating characteristic in a person? Probably arrogance/pretentiousness (Is that a word? It is now!)
Best childhood games/toys? I used to really, really love monopoly. Twister is also good. And I remember being amused for hours by Guess Who (It is such a difficult game......). Never did like the Game of Life though.
Also, that thing, with the ropes around people's legs and you jump over them to that "England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales....." rhyme-y thing, and you move the ropes higher until it's impossible for your 8 year old legs to jump over them? Yep. That game. (Anyone know what I'm on about?)
Do you hold grudges or do you find it easy to forgive people? I'll let most things slide reasonably easily, but if you seriously hurt me, or one of my best friends, I'll hate you forever.
More when I think of them.

Aoifers, I truly truly truly love you.
1. Why do you always smell of awesome? Because I love perfume far, far too much
2. Are you really Mary Poppins? I don't carry around furniture, but I do have chocolate, nail varnish, and q-tips. Oh and tights. Pretty sure that makes me Mary Poppins. NOD.
3. Why don't you drink tea? I don't like it It's all hot and tasteless. And Green tea is worse (has a taste, but distinctly worse than tasteless). Sowwee Gracie
and
4. You should've taken that pizza with you. It's gone all weird now. Why do you think I wouldn't put it in my bag? It was wrapped beautifully, if nothing else 0 -

6. If you had gotten law at Trinners would the universe have imploded? Pretty sure it would. I mean, who wants to get two super quick trains a day when you can get four buses? That, and I would have no Gracie to mooch with/generally live with.
7. What's your favourite...uh oh. I said favourite. Which Girls Aloud songs do you like? The Promise, The Show, Sound of The Underground, Untouchable, annnnddd Biology........ (And Love Machine and Something Kinda Oooh)
8. If you could see any artist/band/whateverthe**** live who would it/they be? Living or dead. Ahm. Ahhhhm. Can I mush together Girls Aloud and Snow Patrol? Chances I'll see Girls Aloud live again are slim (Nadine's performing her first solo single for the first time this week. SOB. You're all useless alone. Get it the fúck back together.) but Snow Patrol live make me so happy (and they'll make me happier now I know the songs :P). I could choose someone I've never seen before, but those two make me happy, and ahm, them mushed together would be.... interesting. Also, I'm tired, and don't want to think too hard. >_>
Also also, random thought. Gary Lightbody and Cheryl Cole would have beautiful troll babies. That is a very strange thought. I'm not wholly sure why I'm putting it here, but it follows on from the idea of mushing Girls Aloud and Snow Patrol together.
When I start spewing random thoughts it's probably a sign I should sleep and not contemplate writing an essay I really need to write. 0 -

Favourite website (apart from Boards,of course)?Ahm. I do love my Facebook, and Twitter. Weheartit.com, ffffound.com, various blogs, and The Style Bitches, who I linked to earlier
Best compliment you've ever received? Ahm... ahmmm. I dunno, really. Well, no, I do know, but to make it make sense I'd have to tell a big back story, which I don't really want to do on a public forum... It basically amounts to me being a good friend though. my friends.
5 things you like about yourself? Eh. Yeah. Right. >_<
1. I like to think I'm a pretty good friend in general.
2. My eyes. They're pretty big, and wide, and blue. \o/ for being better for make-up.
3. I'm not stupid. I'm not ridiculously intelligent either, but I has some smarts!
4. I'm also pretty hopelessly silly sometimes.
5. Um.... I like my name?! *really struggling here*
Languages you'd love to learn to speak? French, Italian, Irish and Spanish. I fail at languages though, so mnehhh.
Any fears/phobias? Have a pretty extreme fear of dogs...
Any interest in politics? Not in the slightest!
Are you ticklish? Very!
What do you do when you need cheering up? Eat. Eat lots. So much comfort eating. Oh, chocolate That or find someone to give me a hug. Also hugs.
Favourite girls name/girls names you like? Aoibha (Aoibhea?... I can't remember how it's spelt...), Alexa/Lexie, annnd Evie.
Favourite boys name/boys names you like? Callum, Ben, Oscar and Aaron.
Pet peeves? Ahm. Repetitive noises like people tapping their fingers drives me insane sometimes? Besides that it takes a lot to annoy me really.
Guilty pleasures? Lazy, lazy, staying-in-bed-all-day days?
Bottled water,yay or nay? Meh. I can taste the difference usually, but it doesn't bother me. Tap water is fine in most places...
Proudest achievements? I'm kinda weird about proudest achievements... Like, at the awards ceremony for sixth year, I won awards for all my subjects, along with Student of the Year, which all sounds very impressive and lovely (and horribly, horribly nerdy :P) but I know that all means **** all, because of who my year were. I dunno, I was pretty impressed I survived Barcelona, living with Spanish people, not speaking any Spanish (besides hello, how are you, pleased to meet you, please, thanks and NO! I really DON'T like fish...) without running home whinging about not liking Spanish food :P
Best "mistake" you've ever made? I flung myself at someone I probably shouldn't have, thought I'd ruined a great friendship and hated myself a tiny bit for it.... Yeah, that turned out to be a pretty epic mistake.
I'll leave it at that for now.
O_o So many questions! 0 -

ARGH. Boards fail!
I answered all the other questions, then boards freaked out and wouldn't post it. This is the third time it's done that for those questions... I thought it was just the internet in the library being dodgy, but apparently the Playpen Gods don't want your questions answered...
I are too tired to do it again tonight! Will try again tomorrow! 0 -

Can I call you Farcky? No. No you really can't! I hate most nicknames people come up with for me anyway, but Farcky? Really?
How many total PMs do you have? 92, apparently. Seems like a strangely big number considering I never, ever use the PM-y thing. Meh.
Do you ever regret joining boards? Nope. I've met some really lovely people, some of whom are really close friends now! Wouldn't have met them had I never signed upSince I really suck at thinking up questions for these things:
If you were me and could ask yourself one question, what would it be? Am I asking myself a question, or am I you, asking myself (as in, you) a question?
What would the answer to this question be? 7. Definitely 7.If you could swap lives with any boardsie for a day, who'd that be and why? I'd probably choose someone random as opposed to one of the people I know... How weird would it be to *be* one of your friends? 'Sides, boards is huge, there are probably lots of people who have strange/interesting jobs... Be kinda interesting to do something totally random for a dayGinja Ninja wrote: »what's on your subbed list? Don't really have a subbed list, but mostly read C&H, F&A and UCD.

favourite flavour? Of what? Chocolate anything is invariably good...
favourite minority group? Ginges? Does that count? :P Allegedly, I'm a ginge, so I suppose I have to favour them...
favourite question so far? Lots of good questions! Jumpy's insane lists of questions are made of win though
favourite facebook group? I used to love "Dear First Years, get a smaller bag, you look like a tourist" and "Hi, I'm a dinosaur. I'm always angry cos my arms are too short to hug people" but my new favourite groups is "With awesome hacking skills, you too can create a Facebook group with a really long name that defies the laws of physics and time, thereby creating a rip in the universe that calls forward dinosaurs to attack Australia. (Run, Australians, run!)" 0 -

what do you think of the recent spam we've been having? MNEH. They need to find something better to do with their lives, tbh...
[breaths deeply]what are you having for dinner? I had dinner already... I'm home alone, so I had pancakes, cos they're pretty much all I can cook besides pizza/noodles without burning the house down... I'm incredibly domestic, clearly.
what are you wearing? Er... Giant hoodie, giant t-shirt thing (I'm little, so it kiiinda passes as a dress?) and tights.... I look incredible >_> (ie, I'm staying in all day to write an essay, and didn't bother getting dressed properly)

Green/flavoured tea or normal tea? Neither! Don't drink tea!I'm starting to forget whether I've asked questions already or not:
Favourite Scrubs quote? Haven't watched Scrubs in far, far too long! Can't think of a single quote besides the Knife Wrench one...
Elton John, yay or nay? Nay.
If yay, favourite songs?
Greatest achievement to date (apologies if somebody asked it)? almostnever asked something similar; proudest achievement or something... I wrote a bit of spiel that basically amounted to, MEH. I don't consider things people consider to be achievements as achievements... which makes no sense. Words fail me.
What's the best teenage age (13-19) and why? 16 was the best year EVER, 17 was pretty ****, and my whole like, month of 18-ness has been nice... Younger ages were grand, but I just remember wanting to be older... I no longer want to be older
Favourite summer memory and why? Ahm, about two years ago I went on the biggest disaster of a holiday ever in the history of the world. Every single thing that could possibly go wrong, went wrong (we were briefly kidnapped... you can't go much more wrong than being physically stolen...), but I spent pretty much the entire time laughing. Best holiday ever. That, or London last Summer just before results. Such an epically random trip!
Are you superstitious? Nope! I won't walk under ladders out of habit though!
Any irrational fears? All fears are irrational :P Dogs?
Longest you've ever stayed awake? I'm bad at staying awake. I invariably find someone/somewhere to nap on.... Pulled several all nighters during exams though.. Bad times.
Strange things that you do and people always comment on? When I'm on a bus, if I'm looking out the window, I'll follow the traffic with my eyes, so my eyes are moving really quickly back and forth... I don't notice I'm doing it, but it freaks people out cos apparently I look like I'm having some kinda seizure... Other than that, I dunno!
Ever broken a bone? Nope! Officially indestructible... /jinxes self :P
What d'you find most attractive in the opposite sex (could it be they take sugar with their tea?) Intelligence/sense of humour/loyalty/honesty... all the usual decent person stuff, tbh... Oh. And lovely hair. I do really like hair.
Ever been camping? Nope...
Furthest you've travelled? I think you already asked me this, yourself! (Possibly... someone did!) :P
Ever gotten caught up in something you've no part in? Kinda... S'a long story boards doesn't need to know!
Favourite fruit and favourite veg? Strawberries.. and um... I don't really like veg... Carrots? 0 -

your favourite thing in the world? My noticeboard thingy... it's full of random pictures/tickets/cards/badges/stickers/keyrings/stuff, and my first paycheck, and eh, some random Christmas decorations.... Pretty much everything on it means something to me/reminds me of something/someone...How do you put up with my incessant rambling about things you dont understand or care about? S'cos I love you, and am occasionally interested in what you're talking about Just cos I don't understand most sciencey things, doesn't mean I don't care about *all* sciencey things.
How many words do you have written in the essay? 906.
How did it feel to know you were stuck with me & UCD the day CAO results came out?My main concern was not the fact I didn't get Trinity, but was indeed how I would go about getting rid of you..... :P
Tbh, I was always under the impression you'd be around when the plan was to all be in Trinity... And then I was really, really disappointed for you when I saw the newspaper thingy with the points, and you were asleepy-sleep, and didn't know you were going to UCD. But then when I found out yourself, bythewoods and myself were in UCD (and had accepted I was going to UCD....), I was more disappointed at that stage that A Neurotic wouldn't be with us too 0 -

Do you wish all your law lectures were as fun as the one we crashed?
That was such a bizarre, bizarre day. But invariably 10 minutes of chatting at the back of a lecture, before we caused a scene storming out > 2 hours of my lecturer droning on!
However, karma is a bitch, and I now have an assignment due this week based around the stuff covered in lectures I was not at. >_>
