I'm a Copycat

But hey, at least it is a different quiz than Celtic Wings'! I hope you enjoy. I know I did - if you know what I mean.

1) Put your iTunes on shuffle. Give me the first 6 songs that pop up.

1. "Hot Tips" - The D'Urbervilles (man, I haven't listened to this song in a while. I love the beginning of it. Grabs your attention from the get-go)
2. "Barely Someone Known" - The Orbans (ha, a local band. Groovy song, no lie)
3. "Heartless" - Kanye West (don't judge me, it's a good song and a great video)
4. "Stupid" - Seastroke (another local group. Love the pop sound; very catchy)
5. "Locomotion" - John Coltrane
6. "Josephine" - The Wallflowers

I am officially the craziest music lover.

2) If you could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be?

Benedict Cumberbatch, Matthew Bellamy, Kate Winslet, Christopher Nolan, Darren Aronofsky, David Fincher, Charles Kaufman, Harrison Ford, Stephen Fry, Rupert Thomson, Phillip Glass, Yann Tiersen, lots and lots of people!

Earlier tonight...to Celine Dion.

9) Do you have any strange phobias?

I don't know which of these are strange (and which aren't phobias but just little things that mean I'm anal): I'm afraid of really bad thunderstorms because I'm also afraid of tornados. I'm afraid of past due stuff be it food, make-up or anything else that could possibly expire. I'm anal about which towel someone's using and having a towel available in the bathroom and kitchen at all times. You know, I think I'm kind of afraid of people.

Probably.

Christianity

12) If you are outside, what are you most likely doing?

Reading, writing, walking, running, swimming, playing soccer or drinking.

Of all time? The Beatles, of course. Number one favorite band, Muse.

15) What was the last lie you told?

"I didn't kill him, officer." Lolz.

18) Have you ever gone skinny dipping?

Yep.

19) How do you vent your anger?

20) Do you have a collection of anything?

Movie ticket stubs! Oh and sugar packets from around the country from various restaurants.

21) Are you happy with the person you've become?

I can't say just yet. I'm like a cake in the oven - I'm not done yet. Since childhood though, I didn't expect I'd turn out like this but I'm proud of myself.

22) What's a sound you hate; sound you love?

I hate the sound of diapers when kids waddle around in them. And pads for that matter. Anything gloopy hitting something solid. Whining. Mouth-breathers. Toilets flushing. I love the sound of cars - every sound made by a car. I love the sound of record players when you have to flip over to the "B" side. I love the sound of 8mm film running through the camera. I love the sound of any laughter. I love the sound of pen scratches.

23) What's your biggest "what if"?

What if I had admitted how I actually felt?

24) Do you believe in ghosts? How about aliens?

Yes and yes.

The Scentsy pack in my Scentsy buddy which is a stuffed monkey. The scent is called Skinny Dippin'.

Oh, of course. In elementary school, the rumor was that I was a player-whore. In junior high, the rumor was that I was a lesbian.

41) Do you believe in magic?

In a young girl's heart? Just kidding - yes, I do.

42) Do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong?

I used to tell people that I didn't because I honestly believed I didn't. But, now I've come to realize I have a bunch and they're all from stupid stuff in the past. But they all hurt me, shape me into the person I am today, blah blah. For example, my best friend in 5th grade was this girl Eliana. This guy that liked me, Xavier, was chasing me around at recess over by some mud (it had rained earlier that day) and as he got the upperhand, I slipped in the mud and my whole butt got covered. I went to Eliana to ask for her jacket to cover it up because I didn't have one and she said no. She didn't want to get it dirty. I still hate her for that.

Pisces and boy is it accurate.

44) Do you save money or spend it?

I try extremely hard to save it and I used to be successful. Not so much anymore.

Not at the moment. I don't really want to be in one either.

If you count relationships since I was 4, 12. If you're counting since junior high, 7. Since high school, 3. Yep, I had more action when I was much younger.

Well, I started this yesterday so the day before that I went to class then to the radio station then home. Yesterday, work, class, radio station, home, Taco Bueno, home again.

49) Is there anything pink within 10 feet of you?

I'm at the office now and I have pink post-its!

50) Are you wearing socks right now?

Nope.

51) What's your favorite animal?

Horses, dogs, and wolves. But everyone always says that.

52) What is your secret weapon to get someone to like you?

Unnecessarily complimenting them, lots of sarcastic comments, silly jokes, exaggerated sexual advances, finding something they like a lot and letting them talk extensively about it.

53) Where is your best friend?

In class. Oh man, this would've been so much better last night. It would've been, in bed. In the room next to me. Muhahaha!

54) What is your heritage?

Spanish, German, Scots-Irish, Welsh, Native American.

55) What were you doing last night at 12 AM?

Talking to my best friend...while she was in bed ASLEEP. Haha, no, she was awake.

Well, I've masturbated but not while looking at myself.

57) Are you the kind of friend you would want to have as a friend?

Yes and no. No one's perfect.

58) You are at the doctor’s office and she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live.
a) Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? I would tell those closest to me but not everyone. Well, maybe I would just because it'd be awkward explaining if they found out later.
b) What do you do with your remaining days? Travel, do daredevil type stuff like bungee jumping, jumping off a waterfall, that sort of thing. The very last day I would watch my favorite films with my favorite people, eating my favorite meal and if I'm with someone, probably have sex with them a lot and hold everyone very, very close at all times. I'd never sleep. At night, I'd write and feel alive.
c) Would you be afraid? It would be a waste of time to be afraid. But, the very last few minutes, I'm sure I would be.

59) What's a song that always makes you happy when you hear it?

Basically, any Beatles, Muse, Temptations, Led Zeppelin, Animals, or Disney song.

60) What are the last four digits in your cell phone number?

Hell nah, I'm not posting that on the internet.

61) How can I win your heart?

By sporadically displaying pictures and videos of Benedict Cumberbatch. Oh! You mean if you were a human instead of a computer. Well, you'd have to be caring, have opinions, not afraid to stand up for what you believe in, not egotistical or self-involved, have a great sense of humor and (somewhat) understand mine, creative and continually trying to get me to do new and exciting things. I love adventure. Oh and it is a major plus if you're into the same music and movies but not like just those. I like watching/listening to new stuff. Just be sure you'll respect my opinions and I'll respect yours. See, not asking for too much.

62) Can insanity bring on more creativity?

Definitely.

63) What is the single best decision you have made in your life so far?

Going to UNT. Doing whatever I can to not have to be under my parents' thumb anymore.

64) What size shoes do you where?

6

65) What is your favorite word?

Cornucopia.

66) Give me the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word; heart.

An anatomical picture of a heart and the lyrics to "If I Had a Heart" by Fever Ray. And the Wizard of Oz of course. All of those things just jumbled up.

67) What is a saying you say a lot?

"Thug life", "I wasn't going to say anything but...", "Poop in a basket", "Fuck it"

68) What's the last song you listened to?

"Cracks (Flux Pavillion Remix)" - Freestylers

69) Basic question; what's your favorite color/colors?

Yellow, purple, and ocean-y blues.

70) What is your current desktop picture?

On my laptop, its an outdoor photo of a forest in the nighttime fog. At work, the United States slideshow.

71) If you could press a button and make anyone in the world instantaneously explode, who would it be?

I couldn't choose. It's between Rick Santorum, David Letterman, or Kate Hudson.

72) What would be a question you'd be afraid to tell the truth on?

Either, how do you feel about _____? Or, everybody has a secret, what's yours?

73) You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what's even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What is that power?

The ability to fly and making things materialize out of no where. Oh, you cut yourself? Poof! Here's a bandaid.

74) You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?

Any part of my 16th birthday party. Certain moments with certain people that I'll never forget but are far too detailed, it'd be a drag to read.

75) You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be?

If you can reverse death in that context - Tracy. If not, 5th and 6th grade.

76) You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who would it be?

SONDRE LERCHE. Possibly Matthew Bellamy but he looks kinda dirty. Plus, he's had sex with Kate Hudson. Gross.

London, England.

78) Do you have any relatives in jail?

Yes.

79) Have you ever thrown up in the car?

80) Ever been on a plane?

Yes, but I was a baby and I don't remember it. Luckily, I'm taking a plane to Washington D.C. with Bestie and her mom! So excited :D

81) If the whole world were listening to you right now, what would you say?

Stop thinking about yourself and think about someone else for once.
