10 Random Questions Part 5

1. If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?

I used to daydream about having either Invisibility or Telepathy as my superpower, but lately, I've become enamoured with the idea of Time Travel, which is undeniably captivating. Just imagine journeying back to iconic moments like The Beatles era, basking in the presence of legends like Kurt Cobain, or reliving cherished memories from our childhood. The allure of being a time traveller lies not only in revisiting the past but also venturing forward into the unknown future. However, I must admit that the prospect of peering into the future frightens me a little. There's a certain beauty in the mystery that the future holds, and I'd rather not know the precise details of my life's unfolding events. The fear of learning about when and how I’d leave the world, whether I’d still be married to my husband, or the impending doomsday is enough to make me hesitant about unravelling the secrets of time.

2. What's your favourite book or movie and why does it resonate with you?

500 Days of Summer is always going to be one of my all-time favourite movies not only because of the perfect combination of Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, but also for its heartfelt and thought-provoking characteristics. It resonates with me because I appreciate its realistic portrayal of relationships, its quirky humour, its memorable soundtrack (Indie pop and alternative?? Yasssss), the themes of heartbreak, self-discovery, and personal growth as well as the nuanced exploration of love, life, and the complexities of human connections. And I could also really relate to Tom. I used to see myself as the female version of Tom Hansen. Getting severely heart-broken and not feeling like getting up to go to work, and eventually quitting the job? Been there, done that.

3. If you could travel back in time, which historical era would you visit and what would you do there?

Okay, this is kinda creepy because I just talked about wanting to have Time Travel as a superpower. 😱 But if I had to choose a historical era to visit (apart from The Beatles and Nirvana eras), I would choose The Renaissance period for the artistic and cultural treasures. I would visit Renaissance cities such as Florence, Rome, Venice, or Paris and be immersed by the culture, art, and music of the time.

4. What is one skill or hobby you've always wanted to learn but haven't had the chance to yet?

Playing the HARMONICA. Ugh. Yes! I'd love to learn how to play a harmonica. I almost signed up for a harmonica class when I was still living in KL 10,000 years ago, but I chickened out because I didn't have anyone to go with. I was too afraid to do it on my own. I wish I wasn't though.

5. If you could live in any fictional universe, which one would it be and why?

HARRY POTTER. Need I say more??

6. What's your go-to comfort food or favourite cuisine?

MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM.

7. If you could have dinner with any famous person, dead or alive, who would it be and what would you talk about?

Obviously, Kurt Cobain. And I would ask him how he really, actually died.

8. What's your favourite place you've ever visited, and what made it so special to you?

Madinah. Ya Allah, if I could turn back time (again with the time travelling theme 😄) to that moment when I felt really at peace. I miss that feeling. Subhanallah. I'm so grateful for it. Semoga dapat pegi lagi nanti dengan suami aku pulak, insya-Allah aaaminnnn...

9. If you had the opportunity to change one thing about the world, what would it be and why?

Hm macam tau-tau jak kan 10 random questions generator ni. 😅 Well, this is what I posted on Threads the other day, word by word.

"If someone asked me the one thing that I want for this world right now, it would be less discrimination. I don't wanna discriminate or judge people for their chosen lifestyles, what they wanna wear, their sexual orientation or whatever, and I also don't wanna get discriminated or judged for sticking to my religious beliefs. Can we just do that? I'm sick of it. Truly. I just want peace."

10. What's the most adventurous or daring thing you've ever done in your life?

Going on that compulsory Outward Bound Sabah trip when I was in Lower Form 6. We were made to go hiking, rock climbing, flying-foxing, kayaking, etc. Imagine ME doing all that.
