100 things about me (ganked from ribbin)

[singerinthedark]

Thought I'd play with this one. I like the questions....



1. ONE OF YOUR SCARS, HOW DID YOU GET IT?
I have a small indent over my left eye just below the eyebrow. It's the only scar I have from when I was hit by a car and 16 and my face was covered in road rash. I'm a lucky girl.

2. WHAT IS ON THE WALLS IN YOUR ROOM?
Pictures, a few high school awards, a phoenix, and Cthulu.

3. WHAT DOES YOUR CELL PHONE LOOK LIKE?
Pearl-blue Motorla PBLE... It's a very sleek, oval flip-phone.

4. WHAT MUSIC DO YOU LIKE TO LISTEN TO?
Yes, please.

5. DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME YOU WERE BORN?
7 a.m. Pacific Standard Time

6. WHAT DO YOU WANT MORE THAN ANYTHING RIGHT NOW?
A job for the fall and for this guy to write me back...

7. WHAT DO YOU MISS?
Honestly, waking up in the morning and not wanting to get out of bed - not because the day is busy, not because I'm feeling lazy, and not because I've found that perfect, comfy warm spot in my bed. I miss waking up and not wanting to get out of bed because there's a warm body snuggled next to me, and I have an opportunity to watch him sleep.

8. WHAT IS YOUR MOST PRIZED POSSESSION?
I can't say that I wouldn't care if all my stuff burned down, but people are more important to me than things. My friends and family are "the precious," and heaven help anyone who tries to hurt one of my people...

9. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SMELL?
I have several. Chlorine on my skin. Lavender. Men, when they're all groomed and dressed up for a formal event. Indian Food. Halloween. Fall. The world after it rains...

10. DO YOU GET CLAUSTROPHOBIC?
Rarely. When it happens I'm stressed and someone is trying to hang off of me.

11. DO YOU GET SCARED IN THE DARK?
Depends. Where am I? What kind of dark? Am I alone? Have I been reading horror stories?

13. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE COLOGNE / PERFUME?
I have (unfortunately) expensive taste. One of these days I'll get around to trying some of the stuff from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab

Um, to be more specific, I like the smell of Cool Water, Encanto, Sandlewood, Lavender, and Patchoulli on girls, depending on their chemistry. On men I like stronger, more musky scents, but I don't like Old Spice.

14. WHAT KIND OF HAIR DO YOU LIKE ON THE OPPOSITE/ SAME SEX?
It depends on the person, but well-kept long hair tends to stop me in my tracks. Blame it on my grade-school Metal Edge days and Sebastian Bach.

15. WHERE CAN YOU SEE YOURSELF PROPOSING AT?
Ah, one of the few times I am a traditional woman. I don't intend on doing the proposing.

16. COFFEE OR ENERGY DRINKS?
Coffee. I can't drink energy drinks anymore. Too sweet and they make me too jittery.

17. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PIZZA TOPPING?
Veggies.

18. IF YOU CAN EAT ANYTHING RIGHT NOW, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
Carrots. I wanted some with lunch, but mine have gone bad. :(

19. WHO IS THE LAST PERSON YOU MADE MAD?
My brother.

20. DO YOU SPEAK A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE?
Yes. I can speak Spanish poorly. I also know a smattering of polite phrases in German and Italian.

21. WHAT WAS THE FIRST GIFT SOMEONE (OF THE OPPOSITE SEX) EVER GAVE YOU?
Not counting family, my best friend in grade-school got me this fischer price dress-up set.

28. WOULD YOU FALL IN LOVE KNOWING THAT THE PERSON IS LEAVING?
In a heart beat. <-- Well said, ribbin

29. WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO TELL SOMEONE HOW MUCH THEY MEAN TO YOU?
Show them. Do little things for them to show your connection.

30. SAY A NUMBER FROM ONE TO A HUNDRED.
O-kay. "A number from one to a hundred." What was that supposed to do?

31. BLONDES OR BRUNETTES?
History says blondes, but there is this very attractive brunette I've been chatting with...

32. WHAT IS THE ONE NUMBER YOU CALL OFTEN?
Lately? Um... guess.

33. WHAT ANNOYS YOU MOST?
Students feeling entitled to argue with me. I gotta figure out what I'm doing to encourage that. I don't argue with them, but I'm not sure why they feel they can try to start an argument.

34. HAVE YOU BEEN OUT OF THE COUNTRY?
Mexico, Germany, Italy, Canada.

35. YOUR WEAKNESSES?
Are not something I publish on a blog.

Yuba City, CA

37. FIRST JOB?
Babysitting.

38. EVER DONE A PRANK CALL?
Nope.

39. WHAT WERE YOU DOING BEFORE YOU FILLED OUT THIS SURVEY?
Securing a date for tonight.

40.IF YOU COULD GET PLASTIC SURGERY WHAT WOULD IT BE?
I'd have to think about that...

41. WHY DID YOU FILL OUT THIS SURVEY?
'Cause it was a relatively interesting one i haven't seen before, as ribbin said. I'm also procrastinating.

42. WHAT DO YOU GET COMPLIMENTED ABOUT MOST?
My smile. My eyes.

Drink ginger ale?

My friends to go do something fun with me.

No more than three. 1 - 2 would be just fine for me.

A college friend of my parents, who was named after a friend of her parents.

47. DO YOU WISH ON STARS?
When I'm feeling whimsical.

48. WHICH FINGER[S] IS YOUR FAVORITE?
Right ring finger. Don't know why, it just is. My right index finger is pretty shapely, too.

49. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY?
For the first time in a long time it's been so long I don't remember. Boy, it feels good to put that down in writing.

50. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?
No. It's sloppy. I never did have an elegant hand at cursive... My printing is nice, though.

51. Whats your favorite lunch meat?
Day old turkey breast - the real stuff not the processed stuff.

Sure. Everyone has got some.

53. WHAT IS YOUR MOST EMBARRASSING CD ON THE SHELF ALBUM IN YOUR ITUNES?
Somewhere I have a copy of "I'm too sexy" by Right Said Fred.

54. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON, WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?
Odd question. So if I say yes I'd be a likable person and if I say no I have issues? How 'bout I plead the 5th.

55. HAVE YOU EVER TOLD A SECRET YOU SWORE NOT TO TELL?
Sure, but it was for a damn good reason.

56. DO LOOKS MATTER?
For me, to a certain degree. But then, my concept of beauty is pretty broad. I can find people attractive for their "flaws" as well as their perfections. In the end it's never the thing that attracts me to others the most.

57. HOW DO YOU RELEASE ANGER?
Rage-filled tears. Deep breaths. Talking to the parties who have managed to piss me off, then avoiding said parties until I can speak to them like a reasonable person. Rarely, yelling.

Wherever my friends or family or both are.

59. DO YOU TRUST OTHERS EASILY?
Depends on the person.

60. WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE TOY AS A CHILD?
She-Ra. Barbie. My imagination.

61. HOW MANY NUMBERS ARE IN YOUR CELL PHONE?
I just culled those numbers I don't use anymore. let's see... One, two, many, many-many... Lots?

63. DO YOU USE SARCASM?
*Do I breathe?*

64. HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN A MOSH PIT?
I like being in the pit area but I try to stay out of the pit itself. I am a delicate *cough* flower. However, the more concerts I got to, the more tempted I am.

65. WHAT DO YOU LOOK FOR IN A GUY/GIRL?
Intelligence, a sense of humor, strong sense of self, a modicum of independence, willingness to try to learn to dance, a lack of jealousy if I dance with others (or, at least, keeps it to himself), open mind, kindness, fun to be around... In other words, lots of things.

66. WHAT ARE YOUR NICKNAMES?
Teryn. I don't tolerate nick-names. (I once allowed my drama teacher to call me Miss T on play bills, but that was the extent of it...)
