1. It feels inevitable that I'll eventually..die.
2. You can never have too many..real friends.
3. How many books would you read in a year? A couple of dozen.
4. Realistically, how many would you like to read in a year? Maybe 2 a fortnight - 34?
5. I wish I could pull off..my shirt in public like all the fellas do. Sometimes it's tempting to join a tribe where the women don't wear tops, but I'd probably just wind up with skin cancer - maybe it's just as well I'm not a bloke. :-)
