And someone in 100 years will know your inner most thoughts...
Census 2022 will take place on Sunday April 3rd.
It was delayed for a year due to the COVID pandemic.
This year's form will also include 8 new questions, including renewable resources, internet access, childcare and smoking.
There'll also be a voluntary time capsule section.
It'll allow households to leave a message to be released in 100 years time.
So we can all share just how topsy-turvy the last couple of years have been.

Instead, there will simply be questions based on its impact on Irish society.
Director General of the Central Statistics Office (CSO), Padraig Dalton spoke about some new additions:
He said, "one of the questions hears about working from home, so that's a new piece and it will give us some insight into how society has changed on foot of the pandemic."
People are being reminded to fill in the form wherever you are on the night of April 3rd.

"We call to every dwelling in the country, so if somebody is in a particular dwelling in a particular place, we need to record them in that place. Because otherwise it may be recorded as not occcupied or vacant, and we don't want to get those figures wrong," she added.
Taoiseach Michael Martin has also spoken about the new time capsule feature, saying he wants his message to be based on what the world might look like by then.
"Will we have actually, through our efforts now, impacted on our biodiversity in 100 years time?" he's questioned.
Forms will be collected on May 6th and the results are expected to be released in the second half of the year.
What message will you be leaving on the time capsule section on April 3rd?
