Bookmarking is the next best activity to virtual shopping or carting. Every time I come across these inspiration exercises, I am very prompt at bookmarking them. I even got brave this year and undertook not one but two 30days challenges! Just don't ask me how they went. (Hint: they didn't)

| CHALLENGES! CHALLENGES! EVERYWHERE... |

| IT STARES ME EVERY MORNING |
But today when I received this exercise from a friend, instead of the usual desire to just bookmark it, something magical happened. Reading the questions gave me a jolt of inspiration to write here, after a very long silence. Silence that I have been ruing everyday thinking this is just one more thing I quit mid way...
But maybe not. As soon as I read the questions, I realised that more than using this as an exercise, I am curious to find the answers to some of these questions...it seems fitting to get speculative about life, this time of the year, don't you think?
So starting tomorrow, me and my friend will be answering on question, in particular order for 30 days. We will be exchanging notes everyday and I am kinda tingly wondering which my first question would be...
