1/ Where did you spend the New Year’s Eve?
Home, home. And home.
't was nice. I lazied a lot.
2/ Who did you want to be when you were a child? Did your dream come true?
I wanted to be the Superman.
No, my dream didn't come true. I failed miserably.
3/ What are your best 3 virtues?
I tend to understand people and usually succeed. I think I'm good at heart, and entertaining.
That makes it 3 I guess.
4/ In which hours of the day you are the most efficient worker? If you were to choose the hours of your work, what time band would you choose?
9 to 11 and then 16 to 20.
That's how I work.
5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes – what do you do?
I go to GYM every other day. However, some weeks I'm not able to make it 3 times a week but 2.
I gave a break for smoking. Although I used to smoke 2 cigarettes a day, I feel like I'm not totally free, and I do test my powers by quitting 2-3 times a year for a month or more.

1/ Where did you spend the New Year’s Eve?
At my place.
2/ Who did you want to be when you were a child? Did your dream come true?
I wanted to be a doctor. No, I`m not a doctor now.
3/ What are your best 3 virtues?
I can`t think of any. I`m hard-working but maybe a workaholic, which is not a virtue any longer. Honesty can sometimes turn into weakness, can`t it? And so on and so forth. All in all, I have no virtues.
4/ In which hours of the day you are the most efficient worker? If you were to choose the hours of your work, what time band would you choose?
Morning hours, I suppose.
5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes – what do you do?
I do a lot of thinking about a healthy lifestyle.Violetta P. edytował(a) ten post dnia 02.01.09 o godzinie 15:58

Running to and fro.
2/ Who did you want to be when you were a child? Did your dream come true?
Firefighter. I'm not one now.
3/ What are your best 3 virtues?
I'm smart, beautiful, funny, good at languages, assertive, friendly, and "nice". And modest, too.
4/ In which hours of the day you are the most efficient worker? If you were to choose the hours of your work, what time band would you choose?

Although I am more of an owl, I think I'd rather work early in the morning and be done by 3 pm.
5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes – what do you do?

I exercise by typing a lot. A lot. A lot. A lot. A lot.

4/ In which hours of the day you are the most efficient worker? If you were to choose the hours of your work, what time band would you choose?

There are no efficient hours if I'm bored with my job. If I'm not,if I'm excited, any hours will do.

5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes– what do you do?

Yes, I'm trying to be an optimist. But usually I'm a realist (that is a well-informed optimist)

And I don't eat shitty food.Anna Żylińska edytował(a) ten post dnia 02.01.09 o godzinie 17:03

can dance like the bastard son of Michael Jackson and Prince,

1/ Where did you spend the New Year’s Eve?
I went to Kraków for a couple of days, but returned in the evening on New Year's Eve, just in time to join my friends at their new club.
2/ Who did you want to be when you were a child? Did your dream come true?
I envisaged myself as a railway driver. Fortunately, I did not pursue that ambition.
3/ What are your best 3 virtues?
Punctual, can make a lot of money, ready to party any time.
4/ In which hours of the day you are the most efficient worker? If you were to choose the hours of your work, what time band would you choose?
I'm efficient when I can earn money. If could choose the time, I'd pick the best paid time.
5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes – what do you do?
I drink red wine, although I'm not a discerning customer. Just a bottle of Zinfandel will do. Sex and dancing also help to stay fit.Adam L. edytował(a) ten post dnia 02.01.09 o godzinie 18:57

1/ Where did you spend the New Year’s Eve?
A club in Gdynia. Very safe place. Only 20 metres from a Police station.
2/ Who did you want to be when you were a child? Did your dream
come true?
A traveller. A librarian. A fashion designer. No, it didn’t come true.
3/ What are your best 3 virtues?
I think I am reliable, responsible, and make fast decisions (the latter doesn’t apply to choosing from a menu in a restaurant, though) . In short; boooooring.
4/ In which hours of the day you are the most efficient worker? If
you were to choose the hours of your work, what time band would
you choose?
I am not alive before 9.00 am (and a decent coffee). If I start working early in the morning, I usually have a crisis around 2.00 pm. After 5.00 pm I can go for hours. I love burning midnight oils provided I don’t have to be awake before 10.00.
5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes – what do you do?
Try to go swimming at least two times a week. Try to have a good holiday rest two times a year. Still working on letting things go from time to time.

Thanks, Ania.
1/ Where did you spend the New Year’s Eve?
Home. I ended up with some virus and it knocked me down. I was never an enthusiast of New Year's Eve partying anyway.
2/ Who did you want to be when you were a child? Did your dream come true?
Different things from different periods (I loved my childhood and we were encouraged). One that occurs to me immediately is a teacher, and no I'm not a teacher.
3/ What are your best 3 virtues?
To me it's a geniune miracle to be born a human being. So for now, I would say the miraculousness of being a human, and I can't think of any beyond that right now. My affect is very flat at the moment.
4/ In which hours of the day you are the most efficient worker? If you were to choose the hours of your work, what time band would you choose?
I used to frequently stay until 3:00 am or all night and not even know what time it was. Anytime.
5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes – what do you do?
I've been in competitive sports all my life. I recently had a leg injury and got out of shape. So I am on a dietary regimen and I am doing low impact things until it heals and back at it again. I do them every day. I don't smoke. I rarely drink (because I don't have an "off" switch).Joj Y. edytował(a) ten post dnia 02.01.09 o godzinie 20:36

5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes – what do you do?
I do a lot of thinking about a healthy lifestyle.

That's a good one. I'd say the same :)

Here you are... I guess you ask about the clothes so.. I was dressed up as a doll. And, unfortunatelly, they all thought I'm not dressed up so I didn't get a chance to win a dvd... And they asked if my long blond curly hair was real.. And they wanted to take it off. And they didn't.
The ballroom was rented. What else? Not everybody dressed up which was... sorf of... stiff. But there were also hippies, witches, devils, fairies, a mexican, doctors (and their nurses;) ) and blues brothers (while one of them reminded of a desperado a bit).
The party itself was ok, but could be more crazy if I chose the ppl to come.
Anyway... My legs are ok. The head too. :)
5/ Do you do anything to make your life healthier/healthy? If yes – what do you do?
I eat healthy food (lots of vegetables because I like them) and, oh my..., nothing more... I should think about some changes...
