hey-o
So, slowly, but surely, I want to get back into posting on this thing again. So here, check out this survey I stole and filled out from cashewdani;
Elaborate on your default icon.
It's of the band, She & Him. I don't really have any sentimental attachment to it, just that I like them and their music and I think it's pretty.
Ever have a near-death experience?
Only when I'm exercising (ha!). But there was that one time, a week before Thanksgiving, where I was on the on-ramp to the freeway and this van in front of me was driving SO SLOW and I was like "Dude, we have to MERGE, so pick up your pace" but then I saw the van wiggle a bit and before I could even comprehend that, my car started wiggling and I realized it was because we were driving over a patch of black ice. If that van hadn't have been in front of me, I probably would've sped over that black ice and who knows, maybe gotten out of control or something. So when my aunt at Thanksgiving dinner asked us to name something we were all thankful for, I told that story, and my aunt declared me the "winner" of Thanks. /cool story bro
Name an obvious quality you have.
That I tend to go out of my way to be nice to people.
What's the name of the song that's stuck in your head right now?
X & Y - Coldplay. The discovery of this song makes me so happy, I don't even know.
Any celeb you would marry?
I really kind of like keeping celebs in that fake bubble of them being away from me so that I just can kind of fangirl them from afar, but I have to say, I wouldn't kick Alex O'Loughlin away. He seems supremely delightful.
Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity?
DJ Tanner and I, when I was younger. Maybe a little bit now, but definitely more so when we were both younger.
Do you wear a watch? What kind?
I really want a watch. I just bought one from Target but it's just a smidge too tight to comfortably wear all the time. I'm thinking maybe 15 more lbs down would do the trick, but that'll be a nice reward, to have a watch fit my ogre wrists.
Do you have anything pierced?
Two sets of holes in my ears, but I think the second set is probably closed up.
Do you have any tattoos?
a) probably couldn't handle the pain and b) i just can't imagine wanting something on my body like that forever.
Do you like to shop?
Ugh, I shop way too much. It gets easier with the more weight that I lose and I'm starting to take a real interest in my own fashion sensibilities, but it can be very frustrating at times, believe me.
What was the last thing you paid for with your credit card?
Lucky/Glamour magazines were both under a $1 for their subscriptions, so I got a year of each of them for $23
Do you know any twins?
I do! I have two sets of twin cousins in my family, my brother's last girlfriend was a twin, and one of my best friend's dad is a twin.
Do you have any weird relatives?
They're all weirdos, let's be honest.
What was the last movie you watched?
In the theater, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, at home...The Back Up Plan? Maybe?
What was the last book you read?
Sh*t My Dad Says. Surprisingly awesome!
Is there such a thing as love at first sight, or it is more likely to be "lust at first sight"?
It's absolutely lust at first sight. There's a reason they call it falling in love.
What's your favorite book?
I still love To Kill A Mockingbird so much. Ugh, thank you Mrs. Ducher, 10th grade English, for introducing that to me.
When was the last time you visited the street where you first lived?
Not that long ago - a few months ago, maybe? I still live relatively close to my old house, so I drive by there every so often. Good memories still - we moved out on my 5th birthday.
When was the last time you googled your own name?
A few seconds ago - ahh! My facebook, twitter, and my brother's twitter all pop up. Kind of creepy.
What was/is your favorite subject at school?
My creative writing classes were the bomb dot com.
What was is your least favorite subject at school?
Math for sure, in any form (geometry was particularly awful though - at least algebra had letters in it and my english sensibilities liked that)
Do you like having your photograph taken?
Yeah, I don't mind. I'm not one to hide from a camera and I think a silly face is always a good time.
What time were you born?
3:53 am
Have you ever killed your own dinner?
No, I have not.
Most embarrassing moment?
Ugh, I try to just block them all out. I HATE being embarrassed. But I will say my most recent embarrassing moment was when I was going to im a girl at work about this guy we work with and I accidentally imed the guy instead. Awk-ward.
How long have you been living at your current residence?
Since I was five.
What phobias do you have?
I get a little nauseated at heights. The thought of whales REALLY freaks me out (yeah, I don't know either, but Blue Whales are terrifying to me)
What's your ideal breakfast?
French toast, bacon and/or sausage, some kind of fruit (preferably red grapes), and water.
Why do you blog?
Because I've met a lot of great people over the years doing this and I want to keep up those relationships, but also because I think my blog is such an awesome, living document of my life. It's a time capsule of my feelings and friendships and interests and I do not want to give that up. - this is cashewdani's answer and it's exactly why I want to get BACK into blogging. I miss the journal aspect and honestly, I just want to remember everything, everything - particularly at this moment in my life where I've just graduated and my friends are getting married and I want to document it all.
First crush?
My neighbor, Mike
First heartbreak?
Haven't really had my heart broken.
Do you have nightmares frequently?
I don't really dream all that often, but my last nightmare I remember vividly was getting stung in the back by a bee and I woke up with tears in my eyes because I could still feel the stinger in my back.
Which TV character could you be friends with?
Ann Perkins feels like one of my actual friends. I bet we'd get along great.
What did you watch on TV last night?
Caught up on The Daily Show, watched Ryan Reynolds on Conan, and The Soup ("According to Lifetime, the only thing worse than being murdered is dying alone")
Scary movies or happy endings?
Happy endings, always. Aren't there enough scary things about life?
