I'm posting mostly over at Quirky Cookery right now, where I play with my food and teach you to have fun with it, too. Come check me out?


The Most Random Survey Ever

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
Or so it claims anyway. Stolen from AmethystGreye, let's see if we can make it even a bit more random.
1) What side of the heart do you draw first?
*Draws a heart* I believe it's usually the left...not that I draw hearts on a regular basis anyway.

2) Can you dive without plugging your nose?
I can't even dive, so I wouldn't know. If I dunk my head under water, I don't necessarily have to, but it's prefer.

3) What color is your razor?
Which one? Let's see, I have a blue Venus razor...I have a pink one (I don't usually buy pink, but I wanted to try out their vibrating one, and it was only available in pink at the time)....I've got a black trimmer...and I have a black and silver Seiko. Oh, and I have dark purple-y maroon-ish colored one that was mailed to me a couple months ago as a free trial, and I liked it enough to keep it and continue using. I might even buy the next set of blades for it.

4) What is your blood-type?
Um...uh oh....I used to know this, but now that I'm being asked, I can't think of it for the life of me. It seems like I'm A something...but I'll have to call my mother about that one. *Makes a mental note*

~edit~ Nope, I'm O+. This, of course, came after my mother trying to tell me while she was on the phone, and her getting into a debate with the caller about RH- and PKU tests (huh?), with her eventually telling me that I'm O-retarded. Gee thanks, lol. (And the debate is still going on, by the way....I left 10 minutes ago, and they're still talking about it....geez...I'm the most common blood type...period...hehe).

5) Who would you want to be tied to for 24 hours?
Ryan...and no, we're not going into the reasons why, hehe.

6) What is a rumor someone has spread about you?
I don't usually get rumors spread about me. People tend to like me too much. Well, okay, that and the fact that I'm good about keeping personal things about me private, so that they don't exactly have any dirt on me anyway....and if they try to make something up, people know better (actually, come to think of it, even if it's true, people wouldn't usually believe it, lol). I can only remember one rumor about me, and that was in like 8th grade maybe....and we're so not going there either.

7) How do you feel about carrots?
Should I feel 'anything' about carrots? Actually, I kinda do have an emotional connection to them. When I was little, I used to always want to like them...even though they grossed me out. Every couple months, I'd beg my mom to buy me some so I could try them again. Because my tastes often changed, and I was so insistent on liking them, she kept buying them for me. Now, I am proud to say that I will indeed eat carrots....and I'll like them. I still can't stand them cooked, but nice and crisp is quite yummy indeed, especially if I have a bit of dip for them.

Oh, and I also feel the need to point out a friend of mine who has the username involving her past obsession with carrots. Our first conversation was about her old carrot eating habits, and it just went from there. All in all, I feel pretty happy about carrots.

8) How many chairs at the dining room table?
Well if I had a dining room table, I could answer that question. The bed I typically eat on, has no chairs...but it has four legs, so maybe it's like a chair in itself...

9) Which is the best Spice Girl?
Um, I'm trying to remember their names....I was never big on them, although I will give them credit for allowing "Wannabe" to spread my school like wildfire.

10) Do you know what time it is?
2:15!! (Yay for being able to cheat by using standard computer clocks...that wasn't really a random question...I'm not sure why it's even here....)

11) Do you know all the words to the Fresh Prince Theme Song?
No, but I know a good portion of them....

"Now this is the story all about how, my life got flipped, turned upside down, and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there, and I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air....(music).....In West Philadelphia, born and raised, on the playground is where I spent most of my days, chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool, and all shooting some b-ball outside of the school, when a couple of guys, who were up in no good, started making trouble in my neighborhood, I got in one little fight and my mom got scared, and said you're moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air. I whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said "fresh" and had a dice in the mirror. If anything I could say that this cab was rare, but I thought, nah forget it, go home to Bel-Air. I pulled up to a house about seven or eight, and I yelled to the cabby "yo, home, smell you later." Looked at my kingdom I was finally there, to settle my throne as the prince of Bel-Air. (I remembered more than I thought....probably missed a few words here or there, but damn...that's pretty good, hehe).

Now ask me to do the Carlton. 'I' can't do it, but I sure can point you in the direction of a few people who can, hehe.

12) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator?
Calm the people down around me. If I was alone, I'd push the little help button, call someone, and then sit patiently until they unstuck my elevator.

14) True or False: All's fair in love and war?
I beg to differ, but then there are people who beg to differ with me, and then we beg to differ with each other, and it just gets to the point where we're not even thinking about love 'or' war any more, so it doesn't seem to matter.

15) Do you know how to use some words correctly, but not know the meaning?
Um, I can't really think of any.

But....it does remind me of a blog I was reading yesterday, and I pledged to use the words she was talking about. So here they are....twatwaffle, and kerfuffle. I do believe I could use them correctly, lol, but I'm not sure I really want to know where "twatwaffle" originated from.

16) Do you like to sleep?
Sure thing....unless, of course, it's interrupting the rest of my life, in which case, I'd rather be doing other things, and despise that eventually I'll have to stop and rest.

17) Do you know which US states don't use Daylight Savings?
Offhand, nah. I know Arizona doesn't....and Indiana is kinda screwy with only parts of it not following it, and other parts of it using it anyway. Messed up.

18) Do you know the song Total Eclipse of the Heart?
Of course. Bonnie Tyler. ~edit~ I was going to start singing it for you, but I think she does it better. Listen to this instead:


19) Do you want a bright yellow '06 mustang?
Oh no! In fact, it's a huge pet peeve of mine. Personally, I can't stand yellow on cars anyway, but to ruin a Mustang with it? No thanks!

To make matters worse, just as my tuition was due last year, and I was hoping my dad would help me out, he showed up at my doorstep (he's 7 hours from me, but I needed a ride back home for the holidays, and he apparently worked it out with my mother while I was out of the country....I was given 5 minutes warning that he'd be there!)......driving a bright yellow Mustang '05. Oh, I could've killed that man, *adds an lol so it seems like she's joking, lol*

So, um, no....no bright yellow Mustangs for me....

20) What's something you've always wanted?
I'm not sure...I don't tend to want much, and when I do, it's something obtainable so I can achieve it myself.

21) Do you have hairy legs?
Actually, they are somewhat hairy at the moment. Now that I'm at home, I can't step out of the room for more than 5 minutes without someone yelling at me because one kid or another has done something (I timed it yesterday....3 minutes, 46 seconds, hehe). I did partially shave them last weekend when we went to get Santa pictures done, and I realized last minute that everyone was wearing skirts instead of jeans like we usually do, so I did a quick lotion shave on the lower half so I could wear panty hose without them looking incredibly horrible, lol.

Uh, not that you really wanted to know 'that' much...

22) Would you rather swim in the ocean or a lake?
I can't swim, so I'd rather have a pool so I can stay in a shallow end and swim around underneath while still being able to touch the bottom to push myself up for air....yes, that's right, I can swim underneath, but for the life of me, I can't stay on top (except for floating, which I 'can' do....just don't try to get me to move at the same time).

Now if you gave me a snorkel, I could swim under the surface for hours upon end, so I guess in that sense, and ocean would treat me quite nicely, right?

23) Describe your hair.
Well, it has a great personality...temperamental at times, but for the most part, if you give her what she wants, she'll reciprocate. Like most other thing, she has her days where she's not feeling the greatest, but as a general rule, she's happy and full of life.

24) Do you have Entomophobia?
*Googles* Insectophobia? Oh dear heavens, no! Oh, the stories I could tell about my interactions with bugs....like the time when I was around the age of 7 and brought my mom a pair of jumping spiders in my closed hands, and then opened them in her face to show her while she was napping. And I'll have you know, I still think I had every right to be upset that she smacked them out of my hand....I worked hard to catch those suckers, and she just swatted them away...I don't care if they could've bit me. *mad face* (And yes, I know spiders aren't insects....but the same applies for a whole array of bugs)

25) Are you an adult?
They keep telling me I am, but I much prefer my child-like nature. I can be as serious as adults are 'supposed' to be, and I've been that way for years....but as a general rule, I'm a child at heart, and I hope to always be that way.

26) Where is/are your best friend(s)?
Not here...they're spread out over the U.S. and I only see them occasionally....or better yet, the select few I would rank in my top category of friends, are people I've never met in person, and I only interact with them online.

27) Do you have a tan?
I have freckles...do they count?! I don't tan very easily now (when I was younger I did...hence all the freckles), and when I do, it rarely lasts any more. I had a bit of one over the summer (I'd hope so....I worked at a summer camp), but now that it's the dead of winter, I think not.

28) Are you a rachel ray addict?
Puh-lease....I knew Rachel Ray before she even thought about being popular, lol. Okay, so that's only because the only time I watched t.v. was during a break between classes over lunch hour, and she just happened to be on at that time...and I'd watch her on commercials of other shows. Although I'm far from an addict, she's one of the few names I recognize, and would still watch if it were offered to me.

29) Do you enjoy spending time with your mother?
Of course. It can be crazy, but considering she's my best friend, in the best sense of the phrase, then I definitely enjoy the time I spend with her....whether it's a 2 minute phone call between classes, a night throwing walnuts at each other at 3 in the morning, while one of us laid on the couch, and the other in the floor (don't ask), or having a serious discussion about the wonders of the world, there's always something enjoyable.

30) Are you a sugar freak?
Simply put, no. Now, I do enjoy sugary items from time to time (think chocolate), as a general rule, I don't eat or drink much sugar.

31) Do you like orange juice
I don't often drink it, but when I do, I enjoy it. I used to be rather picky with it (I really, really didn't like pulp), but now, it's so rare, I don't particularly care....as long as it's cold and, uh, orangey.

32) Where do you wish you were right now?
Here....but there are a few people I wish were here with me. And soon, I'll head back to my place, and I'll be happy to be there, but for now, this is working just fine for me.
