Jamie Gets Interviewed Part II

Srah asked:
1. What’s your favorite food to make? To eat?
2. What would be your ideal job, and why?
3. Tell us about your worst travelling experience.
4. What do you like best about yourself? (Feel free to make a long, train of thought list)
5. Tell us about something you bought and later regretted.

1. To make… well, I usually like to try out new things, which is why I subscribed to a cooking magazine and eagerly await it each month. (And once again I’d like to stress that I am not kidding.)
I love to make cakes, because it’s just a whole lot of fun. But I don’t bake a cake too often because I don’t know who would eat it if I did.
I make a mean pasta salad as well. Anyone care for the recipe?
To eat… that really depends. I love sushi, that’s for sure, so that’d maybe be it. I also like fried noodles with vegetables and chicken and the pasta salad I mentioned before. I especially like food that I can play with.

2. If I only knew. At the moment I am content where I am, working as a software engineer with additional foreign languages involved tasks. I sometimes dream of being a teacher, but I’m not exactly sure if that would be the perfect job for me. If money wasn’t the problem I’d just say working as a dolphin trainer. Just because I think that would be really cool. Or with seals.

3. That would most likely be the school trip to Italy. Mostly because I felt out of place most of the time. It wasn’t really bad, but it wasn’t good either and I really can’t remember any really bad trips I made. I am also too influenced by holidays in France to find Italy especially interesting. Go France.

4. I always sound arrogant when I say something like this, but I really like that I am smart. Yeah, I know. But on the other side I think I can say that without feeling too bad.
But I also like that I am not complicated and hardly ever moody. You usually have to fuck up big style to get me annoyed and you on my shit list. (I think it’s fair to mention that there are few totally random little things that will get you on my shit list immediately. And most times I don’t even know what they are until it has already happened.) But in general I am very easy to get along with.
I try to not to make this list too long, but I would also like to add that I like my very good taste in music. I am just really happy to have that.

5. When I was cover-CD-shopping in New York (meaning I bought CDs only because of their cover) I made one bad choice and ended up with a Hard-Rock-Death-Metal-Whatever CD I never listened to. I wonder where it is now. But I think considering the loads of CDs I bought there it could have been worse.
There are also some clothes (most bought on flea markets or at H&M) that I hardly ever wore. But I can also say that now I hardly ever buy something I won’t wear. It seems that I’m still able to learn from my mistakes. I made it a rule not to buy anything at H&M, because this is where most of the never-wore-again clothes came from.

Since this is a meme, you can take part in this wonderful fun, too. If you’re interested in being interviewed by me, here are the rules:

1. Leave me a comment saying „interview me.“
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. They will be different questions than the ones above.
3. You will update YOUR blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
