What clothing item do you wish could be banned?
Submitted by Mike E.
Bellbottom jeans. Ugh! I honestly hate those and they to stop making them. It's all about the skinny jeans. (;
Who are the last five people you called on your cell phone?
Heh, isn't this a funny question.
- Mr. Kruip, my government teacher. That looks suspicious, doesn't it? Pfft. He claimed I didn't return my gov't book, which I clearly did.
- So You Think You Can Dance voting line. :]
- Auntie Meme
- Mom
- Auntie Mary
Ooh, does this mean I don't have a social life? Eh.
Do you read the Sunday paper? Which one(s)?
Unfortunately no. But on rare occasions when I do, it's The LA Times.
Where do you do your online shopping?
It really depends on what I am shopping for. Typically I shop at barnesandnoble.com, ae.com, and amazon.com. I lovelovelove shopping online more so than real shopping. It's so much easier. Click and receive! ^_^
What are the things in life that you're truly passionate about?
Submitted by Jess.
Learning languages has always been a great passion of mine. In addition the very obvious English that I speak, I also speak fluent Spanish, high-school level German, Japanese (gotta love 日本語がっこう), and I understand French, Italian, and Latin fairly reasonably due to my knowledge of Spanish. The Romance languages are all based on Latin and so similar that it isn't too hard to pick up the meanings of words.
I am also extremely fond of reading for pleasure.
Just last night I completed Tipping the Velvet by Sarah Waters. My friend Jackie encouraged me to read it, although it isn't too great a literary masterpiece, in my opinion. It was entertaining alright! Lesbian lovers. Mashers. Theatres. Singing. Dancing. Affairs. Yes, that kind of a novel.I began King Lear by Shakespeare, on Tuesday, and A Thousand Acres by Jane Smiley, yesterday. They are both mandatory reads for AP English, but they are so very good that it doesn't matter. I always have trouble reading for school, but not this time around. :)
What is your favorite way to relieve stress?
This sounds really stupid, but I sleep. Sleeping, although I say is a waste of time, also helps to PASS the time. And time heals all wounds, right? Yeah, right. Sleeping has always been a means of escape for me. If I feel "emo" I sleep, if I'm so tired/stressed from homework, I take a nap. Quite simply, I just like to forget. Sleep, I love you.
What's the one CD that will totally remind you of the Summer of 2006?
This sure has been an interesting summer! I've done so much ranging from finally going to Vans Warped Tour and body surfing. (: Anyway, the beginning of the summer was a little iffy. I was listening to Loudermilk (now Gosling) non-stop [and kinda still am]. The song Mai describes me so well, it's scary! Ah, but in 9 days I saw My American Heart in concert twice! :] The song, The Process is so dance-able, and emo all at once. Loudermilk's The Red Record and My American Heart's The Meaning In Makeup will both remind me of this summer. Two or three summers ago, it would have to be the Ataris' song, "I Want To Save You." That song takes me back to my blue-walled room and that summer. Music is ... the best thing ever.
