Favorite Quote:
"Most people are like a blanket. Some of them you just want to keep wrapped up in all the time. They're warm and fuzzy and just comforting. Others are just for sometimes depending on the weather. Some of them are heavy and you need that sometimes but other times it's almost insufferable. Then there are the times when it's really cold and you can't seem to get enough blankets to keep warm." -- Lindsay Louden (A good friend of mine with one of the best analogies I've ever heard.)
Have you ever used tobacco:
Nope, that's a disgusting habit.
Have you ever drunk alcohol:
Yep. But I really don't drink anymore.
Have you ever been drunk:
Nope. Never really had the urge to.
Have you ever smoked weed:
Nope
Have you ever done drugs:
You know, technically Caffiene is a drug and I would have to admit that I'm majorly addicted to that.
Have you ever broken the law:
Other than speeding a little, nope.
Have you ever thought you were going to die:
There was the dunes incedent. I have to be honest, this thought did enter my mind at one point. I still have the scars.
Have you ever kissed:
Of course
Have you ever had sex:
As if I could ever get a girl to begin with!
Have you ever run away from home:
Nope

I don't think so
Have you ever gotten beat up:
Yeah right! *flexes non-exsistant muscles*
Do you believe in love at first sight:
Alright, let's see here. I don't think you can have LOVE at first sight. Love requires you to know someone. I do believe you can LUST at first sight.
Do you believe in luck:
I believe everything is predetermined, we just help it along. Life is like a Choose-your-own-adventure book. You have choices that you have to make, but whatever you choose, it's already been deteremined what is going to happen to you. Like in those books, you had to choose which page to turn to, but no matter which page you chose to go to, the outcome was already set. We do have a say in where our life goes, we just need to be sure that we play our cards right because you can't go back and remake that last choice.
Do you believe in aliens:
As in other life forms somewhere in the universe, yes. But within traveling distance of Earth, no. there are a billion trillion stars with another billion trillion planets, not to mention moons, asteroids, and other such space objects. There has to be life on more than one of them, right?
Do you believe in horoscopes:
Nope. How can some stars millions of light years away tell me what's going to happen to me. nope, I don't think so. Also, I don't think you should put your life in stars that probably died out some millions of years ago.
Do you believe in ghosts:
I don't know yet. I'd like to, but I don't think I ever will unless I see one for real. Me and a couple of my friends want to go ghost hunting someday! Ask me about this one! I know WAY too much about ghosts and hauntings! lol
Do you believe in psychic powers:
I don't know. I've had thoughts enter my head only to have them be right. For example, several times I've heard in my head a song only to have it be the next song to come on the radio. I often have a feeling of who is calling when the phone rings. I've also had a thought or a feeling that I was going to see someone I haven't seen in a while and then seen them. Me and my ex-roommate Angie seem to have a psychic connection. She dreamt once that I bought new dishes only to find a new set of dishes in our cupboard. I once thought about rearranging the living room furniture only to have Angie rearrange it while I was at class in exactly the same way I was going to do.
Do you believe in Heaven and Hell:
Yep
Do you believe in yourself:
Not as much as I probably should

Which is better, deaf or blind:
I've met a few blind people. I have a friend who's deaf and it's very hard considering I don't know much sign language. I think it's harder on her than on me. I personally wouldn't want to be either.
Which is better, pools or hot tubs:
Pools! Although you can use hot tubs in the winters around here.
Which is better, blondes or brunettes:
Brunettes, although Karey tries to tell me I like blondes better. The only girls I've ever been really attracted to have been brunettes though. lol Hmmmm...maybe redheads though...

Short, because I'm kinda short compared to all my friends.

What do you notice first about the opposite sex, honestly:
Face, usually. Honestly! It's true! Mostly eyes. If you have good eyes, that's all I need.
Must-have personality traits for the opposite sex:
Smart, funny, sweet, cute. I usually don't go for the girl who is considered drop dead gorgeous. Those people just aren't my type. Looks aren't everything, but at the same time I'm not going to go out with someone who was 2 teeth left in their mouth and looks like she hasn't showered in 3 years. You gotta draw the line somewhere! If you wear lots of make up, you're out. That means you got something to hide. I also don't go for someone who is really tan. I like the natural look.
Hair of the opposite sex, curly or straight:
Usually straight, but a few girls look good with curly hair.
Hair of the opposite sex, short or long:
At least shoulder length please! Maybe longer! But not butt length! lol Very few girls can wear really short hair and make it look good.

A hike to the top of the largest dune at Warren Dunes in Michigan and watching the sun disappear over the horizon on Lake Michigan.

Erin. I feel like I've known her my whole life (because she knows most of it), but yet I've never even met her. I'd love more than anything to finally get that chance.
