never trying. Even if you fail, you tried to succeed rather then sitting back and not daring.

I say we have to do things we don't want to do i.e. you have to work to pay the bills and they may mean you do a job you hate. I think we like things we don't do because we don't do them. They have an element of freshness to them.

12) If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?

No.

15) What’s something you know you do differently than most people?

the things that make me happy.

26) Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?

rather be dead. memories are of our experiences and our experiences define and make us who we are. To lose old memories or not make new ones wouldn't make us who we are.

27) Is it possible to know the truth without challenging it first?

Never. You must always question.

28) Has your greatest fear ever come true?

No.

[p= ]
1) How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

0, I'm always young at heart

2) Which is worse, failing or never trying?


Failing, because this is a realistic-ist society

4) When all is said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?


I am usually more words than action :P

5) What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?

The fucking stupid political system, the incompetent leaders, a lot. But I'm not gonna dream beyond that because its never gonna happen. (P.S. By those, I dun mean Singapore, PAP is actually a really good government even if they remain ruling forever)

6) If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?


As long as its work, I won't be happy. :P

I dun even know what I'm doing now

8) If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?


I don't think I'll live beyond 40+ even now, so same as now

9) To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?

Never.

10) Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?


here is pressure of failing, so more of doing things right

11) You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire. They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing they are your friend. The criticism is distasteful and unjustified. What do you do?

If I respect them, they must be men of status. Nothing good will come out of it if I sue them.

12) If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?


Don't listen to the government's propaganda.

13) Would you break the law to save a loved one?

Too timid

Those two never match

15) What’s something you know you do differently than most people?

Er.... The music I listen to is considered "old" compared to the rest of my friends

There is no such thing as a complete win-win situation

17) What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What’s holding you back?

Commit suicide. Because I figured the world has other things I can enjoy.

18) Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?


I wouldn't know. I'm too inexperienced

19) If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?

Britain. Because I love the music there. I dun care what you bits say.

20) Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?


Yes. Why not?

Joyful simpleton. I can enjoy the world with all I have in everyay life.

22) Why are you, you?


Because I enjoy being me

23) Have you been the kind of friend you want as a friend?

I have bad personality, and humor. I wouldn't classify myself as a good friend.

The latter.

25) What are you most grateful for?

Music.

26) Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?

Lose all old ones. There is still future even if its bleak

27) Is it possible to know the truth without challenging it first?

I could say you can't challenge truth until you know it first too.

28) Has your greatest fear ever come true?


I have no greatest fear. Being the shallow minded childish teenager I am, school holds terror.

29) Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it really matter now?

I wouldn't remember. Nothing matters if it is just a small matter. Five years ago, I was far more childish.

30) What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?


I don't remember anymore. But it would be special if I remember it because any joy n childhood would be extreme happiness in my present age

31) At what time in your recent past have you felt most passionate and alive?

Listening to Led Zeppelin music and singing along with my terrible voice and dying pitch/range, and breaky and gay sounding falsetto. But hey, singing to Zeppelin always make me happy and alive.

When I feel like it, I feel like it.

33) If you haven’t achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?

Many things. In this society.

34) Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like you just had the best conversation ever?

I hardly socialize much, so I probably feel like that when I exchange just one line with someone, but hey at least I talked with him!

35) Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?

Because there are too many religions. Each of them just a harsh form of propaganda. The damage will always be big.

36) Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?


There is no such thing as "right" or "wrong", "good or "evil" I may be obstinate and rage a lot politically and musically, but there is not much that seems right to me out of that frame. Hell, even satan can be good.

37) If you just won a million dollars, would you quit your job?

Why not.

38) Would you rather have less work to do, or more work you actually enjoy doing?


Enjoyment work.

39) Do you feel like you’ve lived this day a hundred times before?

If you actually use math calculations, probably in thousands.

40) When was the last time you marched into the dark with only the soft glow of an idea you strongly believed in?


I'm the kind of person who doesn't take chances. So I don't have much of experience I can brag of.

41) If you knew that everyone you know was going to die tomorrow, who would you visit today?

I would just live in fear, alone. Probably with my family tho.

42) Would you be willing to reduce your life expectancy by 10 years to become extremely attractive or famous?


Why not. Life is short and sad. If I can die early and still become the second Led Zeppelin, why not.

43) What is the difference between being alive and truly living?

I believe being alive can be anywhere from being able to breath and being on life support. But truly living would at least have you do some things you want, however small.

44) When is it time to stop calculating risk and rewards, and just go ahead and do what you know is right?


When you are mad.

45) If we learn from our mistakes, why are we always so afraid to make a mistake?

Because that is just a hypocritical statement form philosophers of the past. Its human nature to be that careful.

46) What would you do differently if you knew nobody would judge you?


A lot of things. But even if ppl didn't judge me, there will still be this thing called Law.

47) When was the last time you noticed the sound of your own breathing?

When I was running. I am overweight, c'mon.

48) What do you love? Have any of your recent actions openly expressed this love?


Hard Rock. My public declaration for Led Zeppelin love here on gbatemp is more than enough. I wonder how many of you are sick of it already.

49) In 5 years from now, will you remember what you did yesterday? What about the day before that? Or the day before that?

No, but I will remember the those from that day 5 year later. But not clearly.

50) Decisions are being made right now. The question is: Are you making them for yourself, or are you letting others make them for you?

Society makes some decisions for me. I make some for myself. There is no such thing as absolute freedom.
[/p]
 
Yay I do not have to wait ages to be on a KYT (not that I have ever signed up).
Might as well spoiler this
1) How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?
I find age a poor metric by which to judge things and I am notoriously useless at guessing age. So wake up from a coma in the morning without memory (or date specific memory at least) probably about the same as I am now or maybe 25.

2) Which is worse, failing or never trying?
Failing for me usually means I still learn something so never trying.

3) If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
Have yet to have this problem but then again I am

4) When all is said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
No but only because I rarely speak.

5) What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?
To make things even more interesting (most people I meet I could probably dismiss and never think about again which I do not really care for).

6) If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?
I like reverse engineering things, it seems that is what I do.

7) Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
I believe in nothing and do whatever catches my fancy from day to day.

8) If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
Sleep even less and said forget school earlier on to learn something useful.

9) To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?
Such things have only just begun but "controlled without forcing things" would be an apt description.

10) Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?
I am out for me and should someone else benefit fantastic.

11) You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire. They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing they are your friend. The criticism is distasteful and unjustified. What do you do?
Probably be shocked as there are very few things I find distasteful, for a person to be my friend not caring about things that are not justified is usually a prerequisite.

12) If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
Never stop learning.

13) Would you break the law to save a loved one?
I would break a law just to pass time.

14) Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?
Only because I suffered the "break it down and learn it again with a slight bit more complexity rather than take it as far as you can" part of schooling.

15) What’s something you know you do differently than most people?
Sleep patterns.

16) How come the things that make you happy don’t make everyone happy?
Because there are people who care not for learning things.

17) What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What’s holding you back?
Move somewhere else in the world, I said I would do it with someone else who does not live such a carefree life as myself.

18) Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?
I have a lot of electrical junk around here if that counts.

19) If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?
I would rather travel or be on the move at least but I did quite like the northwest US and Canada.

20) Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?
Usually, no but if you want the buttons to actually work in most elevators I find myself in......

21) Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton?
Worried genius.

22) Why are you, you?
Being somewhat carefree means nothing bad has ever actually happened to me; actions have no consequences.

23) Have you been the kind of friend you want as a friend?
I believe so.

24) Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?
Truth be told I can usually find someone somewhat to have a drink with and going 15 years between seeing someone is nothing drastic in my world.

25) What are you most grateful for?
The ability to do as I wish on a near daily basis.

26) Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?
Lose memories.

27) Is it possible to know the truth without challenging it first?
Question everything is the more of less the only thing that resembles a piece of simple advice that I follow.

28) Has your greatest fear ever come true?
No and if it did I would no longer be cogent enough to have a fear.

29) Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it really matter now?
See "nothing bad" answer to 22)

30) What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?
Getting a toolkit one Christmas when I was little; it the start of everything.

31) At what time in your recent past have you felt most passionate and alive?
My father and I were pinging ideas off each other pulling apart a particularly complex device although many similar instances of that with others have happened.

32) If not now, then when?
If not now then there is probably a law of physics stopping me.

33) If you haven’t achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?
Achievements for me or more or less the same as those on a game; many and individually they are pointless.

34) Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like you just had the best conversation ever?
You have more or less described the average night out for me.

35) Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?
If religion is the opium of the masses then the leaders are the dealers and we all know how much they hate to lose their status/income/territory.

36) Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?
Existence is anything but a binary decision.

37) If you just won a million dollars, would you quit your job?
Money is not a motivator in my life but a million would probably sort me for life so the ratio of work to "stuff I really want to do" would probably change.

38) Would you rather have less work to do, or more work you actually enjoy doing?
I enjoy work so null question really.

39) Do you feel like you’ve lived this day a hundred times before?
This day has only just started but yes and I would have it any other way.

40) When was the last time you marched into the dark with only the soft glow of an idea you strongly believed in?
See 39)

41) If you knew that everyone you know was going to die tomorrow, who would you visit today?
There is nothing that needs to be said that has not been said so nobody.

43) What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
Life= pile of complex chemicals.

44) When is it time to stop calculating risk and rewards, and just go ahead and do what you know is right?
I would argue null question for me.

See 2)

Probably spend less time performing banal tasks.

47) When was the last time you noticed the sound of your own breathing?
Last time I physically exerted myself.

48) What do you love? Have any of your recent actions openly expressed this love?
I am going with love is a made up emotion twisting nesting instinct and loneliness into something undesirable.

49) In 5 years from now, will you remember what you did yesterday? What about the day before that? Or the day before that?
Under pressure to recall it I probably could.

50) Decisions are being made right now. The question is: Are you making them for yourself, or are you letting others make them for you?
Both and neither more towards "me for me" though.

1) How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

Old enough to be independent...

2) Which is worse, failing or never trying?

Never trying - you could at least TRY to fail. Better than wasting your life doing absolutely nothing...

3) If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?

Because that's how we discover things...

4) When all is said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

I don't speak much, so maybe I'll go for "more action than words"...

5) What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?

Keep everything except violence and grudge. Everything's perfect as it is. For example, I'd rather have arguments with that a-hole then be all two-faced and plastic...

6) If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?

Happiness does not pay, then again...I'll go for protecting the Great Barrier Reef.

7) Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?

I'm doing what I believe is the best for my future...

8) If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?

Just live life as it is. I don't wanna "timetable" myself...

9) To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?

I' unno...

10) Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?

Although I make sure things so perfect most of the time, I just do things without worrying of what the outcome will be.

11) You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire. They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing they are your friend. The criticism is distasteful and unjustified. What do you do?

Defend the targeted friend obviously...

12) If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?

Know your limits.

13) Would you break the law to save a loved one?

Yeah.

14) Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?

Does beating Ripper Roo and seeing a very nice level in Crash Bandicoot 2 count?

15) What’s something you know you do differently than most people?

Playing a DS and listening to rock music. Because I live in a town where people are brainwashed by nonsensical grime music and their "PSP rules" philosophy. LAWL I USED BIG WORDS!

16) How come the things that make you happy don’t make everyone happy?

Because they are stale...

17) What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What’s holding you back?

Attending Fresher's Fair earlier this week. After seeing how the Student Union performed in my union (thanks for the 3-hour enrolment guys >_>), I decided not to go.

18) Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?

Nothing really. I'd prefer relaxing then being all raged up.

19) If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?

Philippines...I miss my home country. Why? I can name a lot of reasons. One of them being: it's safe to go out at night.

20) Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?

Only if I'm late/bored.

21) Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton?

Joyful simpleton. Worrying makes you mental and very uncomfortable, which I don't really like.

22) Why are you, you?

Because I am me and will always be me [/cheesy].

23) Have you been the kind of friend you want as a friend?

I'm not really good at judging, especially myself so, you tell me!

24) Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?

Latter one. It's just like being late for school when you actually live across the road. There's no excuses with that one.

25) What are you most grateful for?

For my life. So happy right now! But I'm also prepared for challenges.

26) Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?

Latter. If I choose the second one, it'll mean having new memories will mean losing a previous memory very quickly, right?

27) Is it possible to know the truth without challenging it first?

No. Experiencing it is the best way.

28) Has your greatest fear ever come true?

Not really and I do not want to come across it ever again...

29) Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it really matter now?

Hmmm....I was upset at that time because my cable got cut. Doesn't really matter now...

30) What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?

So many! The best one is having that summer holiday back in '01 with my cousins. Very nice holiday. We went to a lot of places (resorts, theme parks) and we also had fun staying at home (early morning DDR "exercise" followed by afternoon PS1 gaming sessions.

31) At what time in your recent past have you felt most passionate and alive?

^^^

When what? How when what? I dunno...

33) If you haven’t achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?

Specific please...

34) Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like you just had the best conversation ever?

Yup but I hardly remember when exactly. I'm not really a talker.

35) Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?

Because they need to know that religion should not take over their lives all the time.

36) Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?

I don't really know, but they make the world perfect.

37) If you just won a million dollars, would you quit your job?

When I was 7. We had a blackout at home and I strongly believed that if I kept going, I will reach the toilet :P

No. I'm happy with the way I am.

The spelling :P

I guess the first one is related to how your spirit is alive and the second one pertains to how you live your live...

44) When is it time to stop calculating risk and rewards, and just go ahead and do what you know is right?

When you have had enough...

45) If we learn from our mistakes, why are we always so afraid to make a mistake?

Because you'd expect that you have learned how to tackle those mistakes already, and making another one feels like "I need to improve on that..."

Nothing. I don't care if people judge me, at least I got fans :P
