Welcome and....read?

Hey, my names Richard Alasdair Iain Anderson. That's the reason behind my blog name. Surprise...! I'm 15 years old, birthday is May the 19th, I live in Doha, Qatar but I'm from Manchester. I decided to make a blog for the hell of it because....My best friend told me I could.

Well. Hope you enjoy reading my blog. If you want me to talk about anything, comment on my latest post and I'll say something about it. Ciao!

Let's go again.

Right, well I feel like blogging right now because...I do? Sarah is in Denmark, Harriet's in Doha with my Dad, my Mum's off shopping and David is in the Trafford Centre with his girlfriend, Ruth. I don't have much to do right now. Well, there has been a whole day of Doctor Who and I've watched quite a lot of it. I may be getting slightly bored of season 3, because it wasn't my favourite ever but I'll survive. Not much has been done lately. I'm really bored, and have nothing to do! I want to play golf, but my Mum won't let me with my foot. She also won't let me get a gym membership for a month because I can't run properly. At this rate, I am going to be so unfit at the start of the school year, and IA will be completely screwed up. I've also put on weight for the first time in 4 years. So yeah, I really need to start going out for runs.

Got nothing else to talk about, so here we go with '50 Questions That Will Free Your Mind'.
6) If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?
This is an easy question. I first wanted to be an actor, and thought that would be good but then some harsh truth's put me off it. 98% of them are unemployed and you have to be VERY good to be successful at it. So I thought doing something basic like being an accountant would be fine for me. I don't really want to do anything massive or special that will make me famous so that newspapers and reporters never stop watching anything I do, and always tell everyone everything about me 1000 times over. But lately, I've watched the series 'Lie to Me'. It's amazing, and I have tried to learn a lot of the micro-expressions that they show in it. I've bought the books, 'Emotions Revealed' and 'Telling Lies' that were written by Dr. Paul Ekman, the man who discovered these tiny movements of the body. If I could become a Deception Expert, and help solve crimes by reading peoples emotions and micro-expressions, it would make me the happiest man on Earth. Just that kind of power, and that ability would make me the richest man on Earth. The harsh reality however, is that at most, 46/15,000 people can automatically tell if someone is lying. They are sometimes called 'Wizards'. Many scientists believe that even with full training, nobody can read these signs in time. Each sign is at best, 1/5th of a second long. Not even the Wizards can read them 100%. At most it would be, I would say 98% correct. So that's my dream job out the window.

  2. Yeah, it stopped me from doing anything. In those 3 weeks, I put on 5 kilos. It's so annoying though!

    I would go for my dream job, but I'll end up being jobless if I do, and I'll live on the street.
