:hiya:

:wild: Those are some tough questions! thanks!

If you had only 24 hours to live, what would you do?

I think I'd be pretty much panicking and crying my eyes out because I love life and wouldn't want to die. And then I'd have a huge party with my friends and family. I think. I don't know!

Are you good at climbing trees?

Oh no!

If the whole world were listening, what would you say?

I'd say, "Shame on you for putting Michael through so much pain".

Are you good at computer games?

No, I am not a gamer at all!

If one song were to describe your life, what song would it be?

hmmm.... I don't have one song, they vary depending on my mood. Right now I think it is..... hmmm... well, I really don't know! I guess I don't have a song... How boring of me. I'll think about it some more and get back to you! :scratch:

If you could be a bird, what would you choose to be?

a budgie

or a penguin :wild:

Hi Jmie how are you ?

I am great How are you?

What goals would you like to reach ?

I'd like to pay off my mortgage loan (that's the easiest goal I think). I'd like to be successful at work, so that I could help my parents financially. I'd like to start a family.

What sports have you done ?

I am not a very sporty person :mello:

What sports do you do ?

I watch figure skating on tv haha

What could make you punch someone's teeth out ?

If somebody insulted my family or my friends, I think I could do it. I am very protective of them.

What would you call your daughter/son ?

For a girl I have a name Anastasia, and for a boy I don't know... I'd call a boy Michael, but I don't like the Russian version of this name, which is Mikhail.

Would you like to give birth to a boy or girl first ?

I think, a girl At least, I already have a name for her! lol

What countries have you been to ?

Oh... I've been to Nigeria, Estonia, Germany, Austria, Netherlands, Spain, UK, Hungary, Italy, Israel, and the States.

What countries would you like to go to ?

I'd love to go to the States as often as possible because I LOVE it there. In Europe my favourite country is Germany. And as for the countries I've never been to, I'd love to go to Australia and New Zealand (because of the Hobbits!).

where do you live in Russia? what city?

I live in Balashikha, it's a small town right outside Moscow. I work in Moscow and commute every day.

what do you do for a living?

I work for a news agency (not a tabloid one!) Our focus is financial and political news mostly.

Ha ha, like you I am also not a sporty person, but I do like to watch tennis and figure skating. Russian used to dominate in figure skating, but not anymore why is that? Could it be because the country is no longer strictly a communist country or change in policy?

 

[twinklEE]

If you had to choose 3 material items to take with you while going on vacation, which one would they be?
What do you think? Did we become this way? Or were we born this way?
Do you believe in destiny? If yes, do you believe it's already written, or r we able to change it to a certain extent?
Are you a spiritual person?

Are you a journalist? :fear:

 

[ginvid]

Oh yes! I forgot you are Russian. I need to come to you to practice. I think maybe one year I will get the language down packed.

Do you know any other languages?

Is there a language you would like to learn?

What culture of people do you find really interesting?

What do you think makes Russia unique?

What is your favorite food?

I think the problem was that after the end of the Soviet Union the country was in a disarray in the 90s and the sports were kind of neglected, so we didn't have any young kids with serious training who could take the place of our leaders in the middle of 2000s (after the Torino games when we took 3 golds out of 4). But we are getting back there now! We have some really great and promising young athletes and I look forward to the Sochi Olympics.

If you had to choose 3 material items to take with you while going on vacation, which one would they be?

My iphone, my passport and my credit card lol

What do you think? Did we become this way? Or were we born this way?

I think we become this way. I believe that our environment plays a huge part in the development of our character, habits, views on life etc. So if we were put in a different environment after birth we could grow up a totally different person.

Do you believe in destiny? If yes, do you believe it's already written, or r we able to change it to a certain extent?

That's a tricky question. On one hand, I believe in destiny and I always believed that whatever happened was always for the best even if you couldn't see it at first. Like when i couldn't find a new job for more than a year and was very depressed about it and thought my life was pretty much over because I hated my job and couldn't find anything new, but then suddenly there was an amazing offer out of nowhere so all previous neglections turned out for the best. And I had a lot of similar examples in my life.

But my theory of "everything happens for the best" was ruined when Michael passed.

Are you a spiritual person?

I think that yes, I am. Although I can't say that I am a very religious person, meaning I don't go to church to pray etc. but I believe that there is something out there more powerful and higher than us that guides us (or doesn't guide us, but watches us flopping about lol)

Are you a journalist? :fear:

I am a news editor.

Oh yes! I forgot you are Russian. I need to come to you to practice. I think maybe one year I will get the language down packed.

You are welcome any time!

Do you know any other languages?

Only Russian and English. I used to study German and Spanish but due to lack of practice I forgot both

Is there a language you would like to learn?

If I could learn a language without studying - like Neo in the Matrix - I would love to learn German again, because I love it and I think it sounds very sexy. And I'd like to learn French.

What culture of people do you find really interesting?

Japanese.... It seems like a different world to me, very enthralling.

What do you think makes Russia unique?

People don't smile on the streets haha

What is your favorite food?

I love food! I love spagetti, all sorts of pastry (basically all the things that you can't eat if you don't want to gain weight *sigh*) and I love Chinese food.

 

[xthunderx2]

your life in Russia sounds very interesting. Would you ever consider moving to the US..why or why not?

 

[karin861]

Hi! :waving:

Have you ever seen MJ live?

Do you know how to make a moonwalk?

Do you like sea food?

 

[Ashtanga]

I am a news editor.

You scared me. :lol: I thought you were a journalist. :fear: If you were not a news editor, that another job/profession would you do? :shifty:

 

[JMie]

your life in Russia sounds very interesting. Would you ever consider moving to the US..why or why not?

Yes, I would move to the US, because I love it there. But I would only do that if I found a good job. Sadly, my profession is not that rare so I don't think I will ever be able to find anything interesting there... So at this point I only go to the US for vacations

Hi! :waving:

Hi

Yes, I saw Michael twice during the HIStory tour.

No, I don't

I can't say I am a fan but I don't dislike it either.

You scared me. :lol: I thought you were a journalist. :fear: If you were not a news editor, that another job/profession would you do? :shifty:

I would love to work at an animals shelter so something like that. When I was at school I even considered becoming a vet. But unfortunately I am allergic to fur

 

[Roosje]

Love your answers. People don't smile on the streets here as well

Have you ever been to the Hermitage in St. Petersburg? What was it like?

 

[JMie]

Love your answers. People don't smile on the streets here as well

Have you ever been to the Hermitage in St. Petersburg? What was it like?

Yes, but only once. I want to go again someday when I am in St. Petersburg. It is a huge museum and you can spend the whole day there. Amazing place. I highly recommend to all the art lovers.

When I can, I do volunteer work at a shelter of abandoned animals. :heart: I've also wanted to be vet, but as in any specialty of medicine, you have to be cold blood a few times. I could not handle it. :fear:
