Just another myspace survey. (1.20.8)

1. Who was the last person you hung out one-on-one with?
I'd have to say Eric, the boy I met in my ward today because we sat at the "Mingle" for about 30 minutes talking then he gave me a ride home. That counts.

2. Do you think you're approachable?
Apparently, yes. Odd men often talk to me on Trax or anywhere I go. People ask me for directions over other people around me. I remember a moment of my past when I was walking down my hallway towards the living room where my sister was sitting on the couch and she looked at me and asked "What's wrong?" and I said "Nothing" because nothing was wrong, I was just walking, thinking of nothing as young children do and she said "Oh, you just look sad when nothing is wrong." I've noticed that a lot of people on campus and in slc in general look sad when nothing is wrong. They keep their eyes focused on something in front of them and let their mouths droop down or hold their lips stern. But since the time my sister said I looked sad, I usually purposely have a hidden smile of my face. Not a regular old smile, but one that is under my skin that shows that I am happy. Happy is the opposite of sad, so unless I am sad, I like to look happy, even if I am concerned or stressed or tired or bored or other negative looking emotions because those aren't the opposite of happy. Only opposite things can't exist simultaneously, like light and dark or God and Satan. Plus, many studies have been done that show that while being happy can make you smile, smiling also makes you feel happier. So maybe that's why I'm a pretty happy person- I've been smiling under my skin for over a decade. And I suppose that also makes me approachable.

3. How do you feel about the person you kissed last?
"I have a crush on every boy." –Team Girl Squad, The Ugly One

4. Regret doing anything in the past week?
Yes. 4 things.

5. Last awkward moment?
Friday.

6. Name 3 things everyone knows about you?
Wow. Everyone? That's really hard. Because if you think about it, so many people know me. People I see on campus but have never talked to, people who wander upon my myspace, people who have seen me crossing a street downtown. Lots of people know me. I'm probably safe with 1. I am a girl. But I can't think of anything else. I was going to say 2. I have brown hair. But I don't know if everyone who has ever seen me has seen my brown hair. I was also going to say 3. I speak English, but based off of appearance you can't always make that assumption. What a lousy question.

7. When a friend walks out of your life, do you go after them or let them go?
I'm not sure a friend has ever just walked out of my life. I guess I can think of one single person who has walked out of my life, and I let them go. But then we became okay friends again later. But usually I go after them to keep things not awkward.

8. What do you do when a telemarketer calls?
At home we had the handy "You have reached a number that does not accept solicitation. If you are a solicitor, please something something something." So we didn't get those calls. But when I get a call from a number I don't know on my cell phone I don't answer. Telemarketers don't leave messages.

9. Would you go a month without washing your hair for 5,000 dollars?
Oh yes. But I would also wear a sign saying "I'm getting paid 5 grand for not washing my hair for one month." as soon as it started looking disgusting. I think about what people think of me all the time, even though I pretend not to.

10. Would you cry if you found out you were pregnant?
Seeing that I am unmarried, 18, in college, and broke, yes. If I was married, 30, and expecting it, no.

11. Have you been pressured to do anything recently?
Well duh. 1. Go tanning- something I don't do. 2. Go to a movie on Sunday- something I don't do. 3. Drink- something I don't do. 4. Watch R movies- something I don't do, but have. 5. Stay up late when I have early class or church the next day. 6. Change my appearance. The list goes on. But it's fine, I don't mind being pressured.

12. Who are you voting for in 2008?
I have not decided yet.

13. How many kids do you want? Boys/Girls? Names?
Many. Kids with 7 siblings come out of it either hating big families or loving them. My 7 siblings are my best friends, so I want a big family- anywhere from 7 up. If I have less that's okay I suppose, but I could even have 11 or 12. Lots of boys and lots of girls. I don't mind how many of each. A family of all boys would be fun and funny, but a family of all girls would be harder. But really, any amount of either works great. But who knows, right? I like a few names, like Jude or Judy, Conrad, and Sam, but I don't really know. They've got to be good names though. Good names = good kids.

14. What is in your purse?
I don't have a purse, actually. I have been using my roommate's purse. In it is my case less camera (I need to buy a case to protect the screen. It's on my To Do list), a trax schedule, the my dorm key on a lacrosse key chain, my pink notebook, a black pen, my wienerschnitzel wallet, a black pair of gloves, a Guatemalan change purse, an empty water bottle, a sketch book, chapstick, and a book. It's a very big purse. I'm going to go buy one similar to it because it's nice to be able to carry around everything I own in it. But it costs 72 dollars. That's why I don't like being a girl who is supposed to be a woman.

15. What outfit do you have on at this exact moment?
A blue skirt with blue flowers and ribbon on it, green and white striped underwear, a white camisole, a white shirt, a grey quarter length zip up jacket/shirt, and blue loop beaded earrings.

16. what color are your eyes?
Hazel, but pretty green, which I am so happy about. They used to be browner and I've always wanted green.

17. How can you tell if it is love or lust?
Lust is selfish. Love is not.

18. Do you have your tonsils and wisdom teeth?
Yes sir. My mother had her wisdom teeth until she was almost 50. I want to keep mine forever. They are growing in but I'm not going to tell my dentist because I don't want him to take them while I'm not looking. Plus, the milk we drink these days makes it so we can't fit all our teeth in. If we drank raw milk- not pasteurized and processed and such- we could keep all our teeth. My family drinks raw milk. We have a cow in my brother's room. And I'm going to have my family drink raw milk when I grow up so that we can all keep our wisdom teeth.

19. What side of the bed do you sleep on?
The side closest to the wall, otherwise I might fall 6 feet.

20. Do you like your significant other to be aggressive or passive?
Both.

21. Would you rather go camping or to a 5 star hotel?
Either. I love love love camping but I also love hotels.

22. When did you last cry?
At Applebee's on Friday night. Trent and I were having a staring contest. I won.
And the time before that was at the Union while laughing to tears with Alexis, a newfound friend. She brings out the funniest in me. But real crying? If I remember correctly, December 28th.

23. Do you have any siblings?
Only 7. Plus 2 brothers-in-law, which I count, as well as a girlfriend-in-not-law.

24. Have you kissed anyone in your top friends?
You can't see my top friends, but no.

25. What's your worst habit?
Interrupting people- thinking I know what they are going to say it so I finish it for them. I have to admit, I'm often right, and they say "Yeah exactly!" or what not, but it is really really really annoying and inconsiderate and rude.

26. The status of you and the last person you texted is..?
We are friends.

27. Do you want to be in a relationship right now?
Not enough to seek after one, but if one that was 100 percent awesome fell upon me, I wouldn't run away. (but I reserve the right to change my mind even if a good one does fall upon me. I tend to do that)

28. Can you tear a phonebook in half?
A page at a time, yes. Or if it was on top of someone I was trying to save or something. You know, like when someone can lift a car when it's smashing their child because of the crazy things our bodies can do? Like that.

29. Do you like your current relationship status?
Surely.

30. Do you still talk to the last person you dated?
Yes.

31. How many people did you kiss this winter?
Lame. I'm bored of these kissy relationship type questions. I refuse to answer.

32. If you could own a non-traditional pet what would it be?
A snake, if that's considered non-traditional. That's pretty traditional for my family though.

33. Are you okay with ex's being friends with their ex's?
As in a boy I've dated in my past being friends with a girl he has dated in the past? Yes. I have no say over that type of thing when it comes to ex's. I get jealous, but I am also the biggest hypocrite possible on this subject, so I can't be not okay with it.

34. Would you rather feel pain or be numb?
I've never felt pain when I could have the option of being numb, so I don't know. But I don't like being numb at all.

35. Do you find it easier to forgive or forget?
I swear forgetting only honestly happens when forgiveness comes first. So I'd have to say forgive.

36. Do you like competition?
Yep. Except when I lose at something that I could have won. If there wasn't a chance, it's all just fun and games, but if I could have been best at something, I get really competitive.

37. Would you ever stay with someone just because you didn't want to break their heart?
It's happened, but after about a week of being dishonest with myself I decided to be honest with them. My happiness is much more important than anyone else's. Sorry.

38. Have you ever taken anyone/anything for granted?
My best friends growing up had 3 wheelers that I loved to ride. But I love them just as much, so I didn't feel terrible.

Ha. I thought that question said take advantage of anyone. I'm not changing my answer.

39. Do you hate being alone?
Ha. No sir. I love it. I could keep myself entertained by myself for the rest of my life. Not that I want to, necessarily, but I could. And I do very often.

40. Has anyone ever broken your heart?
Hah. Well, in a way. I didn't cry over the time I thought someone had broken my heart. I didn't know then how broken a heart could be. But in ways, yes.

41. Do you still love them with all the little pieces?
This question does not deserve to be answered.

42. Would you cheat on your boyfriend/girlfriend if Brad Pitt/Angelina Jolie showed up?
As desirable as Angelina is, no.

43. Last time you went swimming in a pool?
Lava Hot Springs on New Years Eve with the familia. That's not really a pool though. Hot tub with my family on Thanksgiving? Hm. A real pool.. probably during the summer at my best friend's cousin's house.

44. Where was the last place you went shopping?
The D.I.

45. How do you feel about your hair?
Do I really want to explain on this one? The answer could go for ages. In brief though, I feel like it is expressive and interesting but I use it as a defense mechanism at the same time.

46. How do you feel about dating co-workers?
I did once. And have had crushes on others. But I'd advice against it unless it works out great.

48. Can women and men be "just friends"?
I'm disappointed in the lame dating questions. But yes, of course, idiots.

49. Last restaurant you went to?
Chili's with my roommates last night. It was so good. I got an amazing chicken salad that I will probably get again next time I go there which will probably be sooner than later now that I know if it's goodness. Then we shared these amazing warm cakes with ice cream on top. Really, it was one of the best meals I've had all for a while.

50. Do you miss anyone right now?
Yes, many people. What a dumb question to end on. I'll add another.

51. If there were two pens on your desk of the exact same brand and appearance, but one was blue and one was black, which would you pick up?
Black. I've had too many lousy blue pens.
