A survey for big people

TAKE THIS SURVEY!



Here are some questions for the "out of high school" group...

What bill do you hate paying the most?
Rent. I would much rather be pouring my money into a place I actually own so I could get tax breaks, gain equity, and sue my obnoxious neighbors myself.

Where's the best place to eat a romantic dinner?
Back in Portland I would say Papa Haydn's. Here, I don't really know but I'm thinking somewhere in the North End.

Last time you puked from drinking?
In NYC with Shirani a few weeks ago.

When is the last time you got drunk and danced on a bar?
Never, although I've been told it's much safer because then the guys who try to feel you up get thrown out since the bouncers can see what's happening.

Name of your first grade teacher?
I don't know. I had Mrs. Blair for second, third, and fourth grade and we all loved her so much that she kind of overshadowed anyone before that.

What do you really want to be doing right now?
I want to be sitting on Christen's couch having a movie marathon.

What did you want to be when you were growing up?
A singer, or a writer.

How many colleges did you attend?
One undergrad school, and currently attending one graduate (law) school.

Why did you wear the shirt that you have on right now?
Because it's my favorite sweatshirt.

GAS PRICES First thought?
I've forgotten about them in the past few months since I didn't bring my car out to Boston, but I remember thinking they were pretty ridiculous and I doubt that has changed.

If you could visit anywhere and take someone with you...
Paris, with my mom.

First thought when the alarm went off this morning?
What alarm? It's Thanksgiving break!

Last thought before going to sleep last night?
mmm...snuggly warm kitty... (or something to that effect)

Favorite style of underwear for the opposite sex?
If I tell the world, it's not a surprise when they get to it... ;)

In the interest of clarification...a friend of mine believes this may be favorite "on" the opposite sex. In that case, boxers. But I still maintain my previous answer.

What errand/chore do you despise?
Laundry.

If you didn't have to work, would you volunteer at an art gallery?
Yes.

What is your favorite cartoon character?
Tigger, I have the tat to prove it (almost the same as Rachael's...)

Are you planning on remaining in your current field?
Well, I believe that's the point of going to law school...so yes.

Do you see yourself married in the next five years?
Umm...maybe. That's only two years out of law school and I'd really like to start my career first, but if I meet the right person then that's cool too.

Your favorite lunch meat?
Turkey.

What do you get every time you go into a WalMart?
I am actively boycotting Wal-Mart.

Beach or lake?
Beach!

Do you think marriage is an outdated ritual?
No.

TV show you miss?
Deadwood! Damn you HBO for not doing the final season! The story isn't done! The fire hasn't happened! Okay...done with my vent.

Favorite guilty pleasure?
The "salsa con queso" dip I like.

Favorite movie you wouldn't want anyone to find out about?
I'm very open about my favorite movies.

What's your drink?
In a bar - Vodka Cran. Cozy at home - tea.

Cowboys or Indians?
As in the childhood game? I never played.

Cops or Robbers?
Again, I never played.

Do you cheer for the bad guy in a movie?
Sometimes.

What Hollywood star do you think resembles you best?
People say Audrey Tautou...at least when I had short hair she did.

If you had to pick one, which cast member of Lost would you be?
I don't watch it anymore.

What do you want when you are sick?
My mom, blankets, soup, and a movie.

Who from high school would you like to run into?
I'm still friends with all the people I cared about, so I don't really know.

What radio station is your car radio tuned to right now?
Probably nothing unless my dad fixed the antenna thing, he probably just has a CD in.

Worst relationship mistake that you wish you could take back?
It was their mistake that they should take back. And I don't want to talk about it.

Do you like the person who sits directly across from you at work?
N/A, I'm in law school right now. Although a few months ago when I did work the person across from me became one of my closest friends.

If you could get away with it, whom would you kill?
My neighbors downstairs. God damn them and their music.

What famous person would you like to have dinner with?
Jason Mraz.

No.

Slaughterhouse Five.

Strangest place you have ever brushed your teeth?
At a campsite, I guess.

Somewhere in California you've never been and would like to go?
I've seen all I need to see of California.

Number of texts in a day?
Very few unless I'm having a conversation with someone from home. Usually maybe one or two just to confirm plans.

If you had to choose- would you start a new career or relationship?
Well, seeing that I'm in the process of starting a new career, and I'm not in a relationship, I guess I'll have to go with relationship.

Favorite Winter Olympic Sport?
Mmm...speed skating, if Apolo Anton Ono is skating.

Pencil or pen?
I usually use pens now...if I hand write at all. All my class notes are on my laptop.

A fair few.

No, law school was a fairly recent decision. But definitely the right one.
