(no subject)
stolen from jazzgoddess, as usual...
QUIZ NO. 1
1. What do YOU think of the way you look? i'm ridiculously overweight...i've got muscular legs but everything above that is just wrong, wrong, wrong. my face bothers me like crazy, too.
2. What do YOU think about your attitude? I'm really starting to hate it. i've got so much bitterness, and i dont' know how to be any different. i don't like who i've become. i don't feel the same love for humanity that i used to have. i just seem to find the bad in everyone first. and i hate this.
3. What do you think about life after death? It's gotta be better than this one...but yeah, i believe in it. i just think that no one is really on the right track, as far as what it IS, exactly (and not me, either)
4. What do you think about Karma? i think it happens...i think it's just our own perception of ourselves that makes us decide on whether or not it's affected us. (trust me, i know what i mean here, i just can't really make enough sense of it to write it out, haha)
5. What do you think about love? It's eventually worth the burning, searing pain.
6. What do you think about fate? I'm not sure if every move is really planned out, and we're just following some invisible plan...but i do think everything has a reason for happening, nothing is coincidence...maybe it's fate, just more mutable and malleable than we think.
7. What do you think about yourself? Wasted potential.
8. What do you tell yourself if times get hard? Why not kill yourself? but i always talk myself out of it.
9. What would you give your life for? All of you.
10. What do you think about your first love? hahah. i think that one day, when she finally figures out exactly who she wants to be, she'll be a great person. but someone who doesn't want to be loved, shouldn't. and wherever she is, oklahoma city or whatever, is probably not the place to find what she needs.
11. What do you think about the first person that loved you? don't think i've ever really been 'loved' in the sense that this question is referring to. so i'll politely skip this one.
12. What are you scared of? just about everything, really.
13. Do you cry easily? Some of the time. not when it's appropriate. i can't cry at funerals. not even Patrick's. but at the end of a disney movie...i have to change shirts. it's bad.
14. Name something that has touched you: the things my friends have done for me around here when they could tell things about me that i wouldn't say. and cards. like the one i found in my mailbox today. you know what i mean.
15. What was the saddest moment of your life? there have been a lot, really. but the one that stands the best chance of standing the test of time is the moment the phone rang and mom told me that Patrick was dead. but i have so much rage about that, that my emotions are mixed to a ridiculous degree.
16. What would life be without friends? about seven people fewer than it is now.
17. Without family? man, i really don't want to get into this, especially with everything that i've been thinking. i'd be devastated, though.
18. Without you? i don't think there would be a noticeable difference, other than a sharp decrease in the number of people that get hurt.
19. Are you deep? to a destructive degree.
20. Do you think love is once in a lifetime, or just chance? i don't feel qualified to answer this, really.
21. What do you think of reincarnation? don't really think it's possible. but who really knows.
22. Should religion be taught in schools? as long as it's not just one. not TAUGHT...but discussed. if for no other reason that to breed tolerance (and i hate that word, it makes it sound as if one person has to 'tolerate' another 'wrong' opinion or belief...but i can't think of a better word for it at the moment)
23. Do pop stars have an obligation to be good role models? if they do, they missed that day in class, then.
24. What's your view on interracial relationships? I don't personally have a problem with it, people are people...but you have to understand that society causes consequences (especially in the case of mixed race kids...)
25. Should teens have long-lasting, meaningful romantic relationships? i think the question here is CAN teens have those kind?
26. Is there anything morally wrong with the society we live in? HAHA...any country that would elect Bush to a second term is beyond morally wrong.
27. Will there ever be world peace? not while the US is still a world power (and i know my republican friends would jump all over me for that comment and the one above...but honestly...we have troops in over 130 countries. is that really 'peacekeeping'?
28. Do you want to be famous? i'll take my answer from "The Office"...
david: "all i would like is for someone to see me on the street, and go 'there goes David Brent....i must remember to thank him one day'." haha.
29. Is Eminem a musical genius, musician or a jerk? a poet. just not a good one.
30. Is music an important part of your life? one of the MOST important.
31. Are you musically inclined? i'd like to think so. my guitars and drums would agree, i think.
32. Do you gossip? Just around work, and only if it's about my boss.
33. Do you lie? haha...no. but i do tend to exagerrate when it's not important.
34. What's your dream job? owning a little bookshop/coffee shop. living above it. in the mountains.
