Why yes, you did indeed read that right. The 5000 Questions Survey. Uppdelad i 50 delar med 100 frågor i varje. Hur stor är sannolikheten att jag gör färdigt den i år? We shall see.


Part one

1. Who are you? Zara, 22 years old, professional cyclist. (In my dreams.)

2. What are the 3 most important things everyone should know about you? If I yell insults at you, it usually means I like you. (I'm weird like that..) If I yell for you to go to hell, that doesn't mean I like you. (Just so we're clear.) Merlot from South Africa tastes better when mulled. (Didn't really have anything to do with me, that one.)

3. When you aren't filling out 5,000 question surveys like this one what are you doing? Attempting to make my own Mulled Wine, with surprising outcomes. I'm also a fan of jigsaw-puzzles. (They go well together with wine, mulled or not.)

4. List your classes in school from the ones you like the most to the ones you like the least (or if you are out of school, think of the classes you did like and didn't like at the time). Cultural history, literature history, crafts.. What the hell else did we do in school..?

5. What is your biggest goal for this year? Vätternrundan. It's a bicycle-race, I'm sure everyone is familiar with it.

6. Where do you want to be in 5 years? Tour de France. (I can dream, right?) Or possibly stationed in Arvidsjaur for the so called "Swedish Army". (At least that's what they're threatening me with, at this point. I hate the army cold.)

7. What stage of life are you in right now? The sabbatical stage? The stage before you give up on everything and join the army?

8. Are you more child-like or childish? In my world it's the same thing. So both, then.

9. What is the last thing you said out loud? I don´t remember. Probably sang along to HIM. Or talked to the cat.

10. What song comes closest to how you feel about your life right now? I'll have to come back when I've figured out how I feel about my life.

11. Have you ever taken martial arts classes? I went to one hour of jujutsu, (That's not how you spell it in English, is it?) but the trainer was a fucking misogynist.

12. Does your life tend to get better or worse or does it just stay the same? Slowly spiralling downwards, at this point.

13. Does time really heal all wounds? No, that's bullshit.

14. How do you handle a rainy day? Armed with my lime-green umbrella. Or you know, probably by staying inside.

15. Which is worse...losing your luggage or having to sort out tangled holiday lights? Don't have experience with either, but I have a feeling I would be pissed of if someone misplaced my booze luggage.

16. How is your relationship with your parents? Well enough. (It's all about my definition of enough.)

Will you miss them when they are gone? Why doesn't this question have a number? And yes, of course. In varying degrees.

17. Do you tend to be aware of what is going on around you? No..

18. What is the truest thing that you know? Er.. The Earth is round?

19. What did you want to be when you grew up? A paleontologist.

20. Have you ever been given a second chance? Hmm. I guess so? Can't really think of an instance when I was in need of one.

21. Are you more of a giver or a taker? Used to be a giver, now I'm not so sure.

22. Do you make your decisions with an open heart/mind? I would like to believe that. I would also like to believe that there is a God, because then I would get to live in paradise if I only asked for forgiveness. Sadly, I don't believe in any of it.

23. What is the most physically painful thing that has ever happened to you? Broke my knee. (Can you say you broke it? Sounds weird.)

24. What is the most emotionally painful thing that has ever happened to you? Fortunately, I haven't really been through anything like that.

25. Who have you hugged today? Random cats.

26. Who has done something today to show they care about you? My brother attempted to find me some silk underwear. (Is that strange?)

27. Do you have a lot to learn? Yes.

28. If you could learn how to do three things just by wishing and not by working what would they be?

A All languages in existence. (Does that count as more than one thing..?)

B How to fly a helicopter/aeroplane. 

C How to find a job.

29. Which do you remember the longest: what other people say, what other people do or how other people make you feel? How they make me feel. To bad I am incapable of talking about feelings.

30. What are the key ingredients to having a good relationship? And this you ask the emotionally retarded one? Take a guess how many real relationships I've been in.

31. What 3 things do you want to do before you die?

A Live. (Is that cliché? I love clichés.)

B Travel all over the world.

C Find love and happiness. (Possibly find a therapist first *facepalm*)

10's: Went by far to fast.

35. Which decade do you feel the most special connection to and why? I don't really remember what I did when, so..

38. What's your favorite TV channel to watch in the middle of the night? I don't really watch TV at all, anymore.

39. What Disney villain are you the most like and why? Hades from Hercules. Because if I was banished to the Underworld for no good reason, I would also be pissed of at my brother and stage a revolt.

40. Have you ever been a girl scout/boy scout? No.

41. If you were traveling to another continent would you rather fly or take a boat? Been there, done that. I travelled by boat to America, and by plane to Africa.
