Have you ever secretly unwrapped a gift before the big day?

I don't think so. I hate doing that because it ruins the surprise, and it's also a bit dishonest to those around you... They've spent ages (I hope...) finding me a gift and there I am pretending I'm surprised at getting it, when I've secretly known about it for weeks or something. So yeah, I tend not to open presents before I'm allowed to.

Have you ever Googled your own name? How did you feel about the results?

Yes, of course I have :P Googling my full name brings up stuff about some actress with the same name as me, and googling just "Amelie" brings up 20,000,000 results pertaining to that film. >:( My site used to be on the first page when searching for said term, but now it's on the 4th and continually dropping. Bah.

How do you eat your pizza: folded, flat or with a fork and knife?

A bit of all 3 :)

Windows, Mac, Linux - What's your preference and why?

I do like Windows (it's easy to use and I know it by heart), but I also LOVE Mac OS X, even though it's a little hard to navigate. I've never used Linux so I can't comment on that.

What would the title of your autobiography be?

"If that made any sense, it probably came out wrong."

Did you dress up today?  See any good costumes?

No, and no. I haven't actually left the house today... And I hate the commercialism of Halloween so I don't participate. Trick or treaters annoy the hell out of me, since you're basically forced to give them sweets. My parents got their house egged when they refused. >:( Now they just put a sign up on their door saying they'll call the police if people try and force them to give them anything. Some of the people round where my parents live are not exactly nice, let's put it that way. The next road is a council estate, you can work out the rest.

Here we live as part of another building and we go in via the back, so the front door of the building is our landlords'. Which means, no annoying t-o-ters :D :D :D It does mean we don't have our own address and therefore can't get any post or deliveries, but I much rather prefer the peacefulness of this than the convenience of that.

What's your sign?  What do you think of astrology and horoscopes?

I'm a Virgo. As for what I think about it... I'm curious and sceptical all at once. Sometimes my horoscope is correct, sometimes it isn't. I'm not into tarot cards and all that crystal ball stuff, but I do wonder sometimes.

How many computers do you have in your house?

Two, my laptop and my boyfriend's laptop. At my parents' house, we have more than that... The main PC, two old ones, my dad's laptop, and ... um ... that's it :P

If you're counting embedded computers (washing machines, phones etc.) then we have way too many to count.  

Tell us about your first kiss.  Who was it with?  How old were you?

It was with my first and current boyfriend. I was 17.

What's the best way to spend a rainy day?

Curl up in bed in a nice warm duvet, knowing you don't have to do anything or go anywhere. Mmmmmm.
