Sunday Survey, Vol.34

1. If you could invite three dead people to dinner, who would they be?
Mmm, that’s a hard question, there are so many! I’d say Marie Antoinette and Leopold III King of Belgium as they are such misunderstood characters whose reputations have been destroyed by so many lies that people still believe to be true today and their lives so tragically affected by it. Also, Anne Boleyn as she too is such a controversial character and she wasn’t very popular even during her time so obviously what we know of her comes mainly from biased sources. So, it’d be nice to have the chance to talk to them and see what they were really like.

2. What’s your favourite lipstick finish?
I like lipsticks with a wet finish that look like glosses.

3. What can you see from your bedroom’s window?
My neighbours’ back garden.

4. Red or white wine?
Neither, I don’t drink wine.

5. What do you think of Ebay?
I love Ebay, it’s so addictive! You can get some great bargains there and also products that aren’t available in your country. You just need to be careful and read sellers’ feedbacks before purchasing to avoid any negative experiences.

It’s your turn now! Copy the questions in the comments and answer them!

1. If you could invite three dead people to dinner, who would they be?
I also would invite Anne Boleyn! She seems fab and changed the course of history. Michael Jackson and Cleopatra would be my other choices :D Totally random, I know

2. What’s your favourite lipstick finish? creamy, highly pigmented

3. What can you see from your bedroom’s window? my backyard, deck, and creek

4. Red or white wine? white

5. What do you think of Ebay? scary…I never use it, lol. Not one for bidding, hoping that I’ll get something. Just buy it outright

Vonnie, I hate the bidding part too especially cos it often happens that someones beats you at the last minute. So frustrating! Most items also have a “buy it now” options so you can just get it without bidding but the price is obviously higher.

That would be a very interesting dinner.

Vonvon, that’s a lovely view you can enjoy from your window!

eheh, I used to be addicted to ebay but check it only once in a while now too. There are such great bargains you don’t want to miss but it can really become addictive and you end up with a lot of stuff you don’t need just because they were cheap lol.

1. If you could invite three dead people to dinner, who would they be? This one is an interesting question I give you that. :) Well the first would be my best friend from college who died of unknown causes (a real mister), second would be my uncle which I never meet but I’ve heard so many great think about, and last but not least (I want to be sadistic on this one, cause I have a crazy idea, but I don’t want to scare anyone :) ) Freddie Mercury. Btw nice thought about Ann Boleyn because I saw the movie with the Boleyn girls a long time ago and I really like it. :)
2. What’s your favourite lipstick finish? well….I don’t use lipstick….but let me think…creamy (but not too creamy) with lots of shiny particles :)
3. What can you see from your bedroom’s window? The parking lot from a lot of shops (I’m living in center of city). It’s crazy here everyday, cars, cars and more cars. :D
4. Red or white wine? Red if I must, but definitely very sweet :)
5. What do you think of Ebay? Useful, I did got quite a lot of products from Ebay. :)

Tavia, really? I only saw the beginning of that movie but didn’t like it much because it was very historically inaccurate (at least the start). I will have to give it another ago I think. But anything that gets people interesting in history is a good thing imo.

I’m really sorry to hear about your friend. *hugs*

La prima domanda mi ha colpito al cuore. Proprio oggi stavo pensando ad un amico che non c’è più, da anni ormai…lui si, vorrei tanto rivederlo. A cena o in qualunque altro posto.

Marina, that would be an interesting dinner indeed! I’d love to have a chat with apostle Paul too. :)

I think Ebay is a great place for deals but it is also full of fakes so I can see why some people prefer to avoid it.

makeup morsels, ebay would be a much better place if they actually did something about all the fake stuff that’s on there. But if you can find a reputable seller (usually some makeup forums have a list of them), then you can get some great deals.

Yes it is! And it’s very fun when it’s raining in the dark, the light from the inside gets out and you can see the drops falling towards you without getting wet! ;)
