Fitness!:
Favorite martial art?
I don't think I've ever done any...except maybe on activity week at school when we did Karate for like 40 minutes. It was a letdown. So I'm going to say ninjutsu because Yoshimitsu
Favorite type of exercise?
Not bloody cardio that's for sure. Strength training, I hardly use weights atm because I'm just doing bodyweight stuff mainly, and I've only been doing it for a few weeks now but I already feel the benefit, and I can get a better workout in a shorter time too.
Video games!:
Favorite inventory item in any Zelda?
Hookshot. And powerglove/bracelet - the games really open up when you get those.
Favorite old school Castlevania song? For assistance, I guess anything before Lords of Shadow can be considered retro now.
Simons Theme! I've never even played a Castlevania game, but my brother bought Castlevania 4 on the wii virtual console and that tune still gets stuck in my head
Why did you choose the name Freya for your babba? Did yourself and Mr. Octo have it selected beforehand? Or was it a case of waiting to see what name you felt would suit her.
At first Mr Octo wanted to wait until she was born to choose a name that 'suited' her until I pointed out that by that logic all babies would be called 'Winston' or 'Gollum'
I just had a list of names that I liked, and then I got him to give each one a mark out of 10, IIRC he gave Freya an 8 and by then I'd already decided that was my favourite. He chose her middle name though.
Also, she's very cute, and baby's freak me out most of the time (they look like wee aliens, dammit!) so take solace in the knowledge that I'm not just being nice and saying that
Thanks. Sometimes I think she looks like Bill Murray, but I like Bill Murray so its ok.
