Wednesday Wickedness: Marilyn Monroe

Just a quick note before we get started- I LOVE all of these quotes! Nicely done Janera!

1. "I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." When are you are at you’re best?

When there is sunshine, I'm having a good hair day, and surrounded by friends!

2. "Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring." Do you ever think that you are boring?

Just about every time I write on my blog! And when there is nothing new going on in my life- just work and home. I like participating in life, not watching it go by.

3. "A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left." Did you ever break off a relationship because you wanted to be the one to do it?`

I wouldn't say I left because I wanted to do it (before he did), more so because I got bored with the relationship and no longer wanted to be in it!

4. "It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone." Do you feel that she is correct?

Yes yes yes! You can choose happiness, and it's easier to do that being detached.

5. "Ever notice how 'What the hell' is always the right answer?" What was the last thing that you didn’t plan on doing but then thought, “What the hell!”?

Oh goodness I do that all the time. I guess the last biggest "what the hell?" moment was when I decided to go skydiving because someone else was for their 30th birthday and invited me!

6. "We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid. So are regrets." Do you have any major regrets?

I have a few regrets, only one major one though. And it wasn't because of fear or "not living" - I regret not taking care of my student loans and debts when I was younger!

7. "What do I wear in bed? Why, Chanel No. 5, of course." What do you wear to bed?

Sometimes a hair tie ;)

8. "It’s better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what your not." Have you ever pretended to be someone you are not because it was easier?

I don't consider "being someone you are not" easier. And no, I don't believe I've done that.

9. "I am invariably late for appointments - sometimes as much as two hours. I've tried to change my ways but the things that make me late are too strong, and too pleasing." Are you usually on time for events or appointments?

I'm chronically late. However, now that I'm with C I'm not usually as late!

10. "Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about." What makes you smile?

I just completed a whole month's worth of happiness! But for the sake of convenience- music, sunshine, good friends, good food, good drinks! Oh, and having enough money to pay my bills!

Wednesday Wickedness: Ellen Degeneres

Today we picked Ellen Degeneres. Here's Wednesday Wickedness!

[I <3 Ellen!]

1. "I was coming home from kindergarten--well they told me it was kindergarten. I found out later I had been working in a factory for ten years. It's good for a kid to know how to make gloves." How old were you when you started working and what was your first job?
I was a tween and a camp counselor at the local recreation center summer camp program.

2. "My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was sixty. She's ninety-seven now, and we don't know where the hell she is." Tell us about your grandparents.
My grandpa is alive and well in Puerto Rico. He likes going out on his boat when the weather's nice. My grandma passed away when I was a going into junior year of college. She was a little nuts- she made me late to my own Sweet 16 party because she was fixing her hair!

3. "Procrastination isn't the problem, it's the solution. So procrastinate now, don't put it off." Do you procrastinate or are you on top of the situations?
Haha I procrastinate a lot!

4. "Sometimes you can't see yourself clearly until you see yourself through the eyes of others." What would others say about you?
Umm I hope they would say that I'm fun to be around, easy going, a good listener, and a good friend.

5. "The only thing that scares me more than space aliens is the idea that there aren't any space aliens. We can't be the best that creation has to offer. I pray we're not all there is. If so, we're in big trouble" Do you believe in life on other planets?
Not other planets really, but maybe in another galaxy.

6. "I'm a godmother, that's a great thing to be, a godmother. She calls me god for short, that's cute, I taught her that." Do you have a godchild?
I do! His name is Gabriel, he's 2 1/2, he lives in Puerto Rico with my best friend and her family, and he's super cute!

7. "I don't understand the sizes anymore. There's a size zero, which I didn't even know that they had. It must stand for: 'Ohhh my God, you're thin.'" When was the last time that you were called too thin?
All the time! I've always been very thin.

8. "I have the worst memory ever so no matter who comes up to me - they're just, like, 'I can't believe you don't remember me!" I'm like, 'Oh Dad I'm sorry!'" Who was the last person that you should have recognized but didn't?
A former classmate and club member from college.

9. "I gotta work out. I keep saying it all the time. I keep saying I gotta start working out. It's been about two months since I've worked out. And I just don't have the time. Which uh..is odd. Because I have the time to go out to dinner. And uh..and watch tv. And get a bone density test. And uh.. try to figure out what my phone number spells in words." Do you work out? Have you ever joined a gym and quit almost immediately?
I didn't bother joining a gym. I did start a cycling class. I made it twice before quitting. Then I hit up the gym at my apartment complex once. Oops.

10. 'We use 10 percent of our brains. Imagine how much we could accomplish if we used the other 60 percent." Do you feel that you utilize all your intelligence in every situation?
Goodness no. I follow my gut more than my head on most occasions.

Wednesday Wickedness

Today we picked Robert Pattinson. Here's Wednesday Wickedness!

1. "I don't really see the point in washing your hair. If you don't care if your hair's clean or not then why would you wash it?" How often do you wash your hair?
About twice a week. More if it's really hot out and I'm going curly.

2. "I take way too long to get dressed, like way too long. But only for things like shows or if I have to do public appearances. Like, I’m ridiculous, I’ll keep getting changed and getting changed and then I’ll just put on the same thing I wore the day before." Do you take longer to dress for a special event?
Who doesn't? If there's a special event, you want to look your best! Sometimes it can take me a little longer on a regular day if I'm being indecisive too.

3. "My dad's a car dealer, but I grew up in London, so I always say I don't drive…I get driven. I got a driving lesson in Oregon, and then I bought a car in L.A. and I basically learned how to drive by people honking at me. I'm terrible at driving." Are you a good driver?
Nope. Though not sure anymore, I haven't driven in a few years because I'm living in a metro area and commute a lot.

4. "I don't spend any money. The only thing I've really bought is my car, which cost $1,500 and keeps exploding. It would be nice to buy a house for my parents, but at the same time my parents are so comfortable where they live; they would probably just feel like it was a burden. I wear the same clothes every day and the only thing I used to splurge on was DVDs." If you had his money, what would be the first thing you spent it on?
Paying off debts/college loans. Then buying a house.

5. "I aspire to be Jack Nicholson. I love every single mannerism. I used to try and be him in virtually everything I did, I don't know why. I watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest when I was about 13, and I dressed like him. I tried to do his accent. I did everything like him. I think it's kind of stuck with me." Who is your favorite actor?
I loooove Julia Roberts. Sandra Bullock in close second. I will watch anything with them in it. I can't wait for "Eat, Pray, Love" to come out!

6. "Someone stole my shoelaces once from my shoes. I still wear them and never put laces in them - they're like my trademark shoes now!" Have you ever changed your appearance because of a random happenstance?
Hmmm I don't think so. Nothing comes to mind.

7. "I never really considered myself attractive. I was always kind of gangly in school." Do you consider yourself attractive?
Yes, but I didn't think so in high school.

8. "I definitely want to record an album, direct a film and start my own religion. I definitely wouldn’t have to pay taxes anymore.” If you started your own religion, what would it be like?
I don't want to start a new religion. There are already too many religions and fighting because of it. And sidenote: I thought Robert Pattinson hated being famous? Why would he want to record an album?!

9. "I do bear some similarities in the sense that I’m not good at romance. I also think I lack basic finesse when it comes to women. I give up too easily even if I’m very attracted to someone." Have you ever given up too easily in the game of love?
No. I don't think I've ever given up when it comes to love- if anything I may have made it try to work too hard, or been overly persistent. I like going after what I want.

10. " I don’t want to disappoint girls who might think I’m very cool and smooth, which I’m not, I’m afraid. I’m still quite shy, although that seems to be something of an attraction for women." Are you, or have you ever been attracted to shy people?
Yes, definitely. There's something cute about a guy who's a little shy. A little bit. Not someone who completely clams up and gets awkward.

Wednesday Wickedness

Today we picked Lady Gaga. Here's Wednesday Wickedness!

1. "Peace. it does not mean to be in a place where there is no trouble, noise, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart." Do you keep your cool no matter what is going on around you?

Yes, I try to. I'm a pretty calm. It depends if I'm actually interested in what's goin on or not.

2. "Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you're wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn't love you anymore." Do you feel that career should be more important than your love life?

No. A career may not tell you it doesn't love you anymore, but it also won't make you smile uncontrollably, console you when you're inconsolable, take care of you when you're sick...or maybe I just haven't found a career I love yet.

3. "You have to be unique, and different, and shine in your own way." In what way(s) do you feel that you are unique?

Small ways.

4. "I want women -- and men -- to feel empowered by a deeper and more psychotic part of themselves. The part they're always trying desperately to hide. I want that to become something that they cherish." Do you feel that there is a part of you that you need to hide from most people?

Yeah, but the secret's out once I started cohabitating :)

5. "Love is like a brick. You can build a house, or you can sink a dead body." Have you ever held on to a relationship even though you truly knew it was already over?

Yes I have. Not one of my proudest moments.

6. "Sometimes in life you don't always feel like a winner, but that doesn't mean you're not a winner, you want to be like yourself." Would your friends say that you are a winner in this game of life?

Yes, I think they would.

7. "A glamorous life is quite different to a life of luxury. I don’t need luxury. For years, I was practically broke but I was still very vain and glamorous. And I still am." Can you tell us about a time when you were broke and yet still happy?

Sure, right now. Ok, I'm not completely broke, but I am happy. And I don't always have enough money to do what I want to do. But it doesn't cost a lot of money to be happy- lots of happy moments are free, especially if you're an optimist.

8. "I’m single right now and I’ve chosen to be single because I don’t have the time to get to know anybody. So it’s okay not to have sex, it’s okay to get to know people. I’m celibate. Celibacy’s fine." Do you think staying celibate between relationships important?

Yes. I don't think sleeping around is safe, healthy, or in any way rewarding. In fact, I think it makes things more complicated and stressful.

9. "Fight and push harder for what you believe in, you'd be surprised, you are much stronger than you think." Tell us about an incident where you were stronger than you thought you were.

Sophmore year of college. Don't really want to get into it, but I did realize that it was manageable afterall.

10. "I lie in bed and try to pray and breathe. I have a very overactive mind. I’m the sort of person who’d never take medication to calm myself. It’s maddening. But I love what comes out." Do you feel that you always have the ability to calm yourself?

No, but I have several tactics that seem to work pretty well so far.

Wednesday Wickedness

Time for another Wednesday Wickedness! You can play along *here*.

Today we picked Heather Locklear!

1. "With a parent, it's always guilt. You want to be there, but you kind of also want to be here." Tell us about a time where you had to be selfish with your time, and felt guilty about it (whether it was time taken from your children or a S/O).

I feel guilty when I go out on a Friday night without him, because I want to see my friends and go out, and he usually likes to stay in. But I know he misses me, so I feel aa little guilty.

2. "Sex appeal is not on purpose." Do you feel that you can create more sex appeal or that it's just a given?

I feel like it's just a given. You either have it, or you don't.


3. "One man is not enough." Has there ever been a time when monogamy seemed difficult?

So diffiucult that I didn't stay monogamous. But that led me to C, so it all worked out :)
4. "I think I've always been good so God wouldn't strike me dead." Do your religious beliefs really influence your behavior?

No. I believe in God's power of forgiveness!
5. "You just have to forgive them for being men." Do you feel there are some things in a S/O that you can't change because of their sex?

Yes, things like leaving the toilet seat up. Would I really remember to put it down if I didn't have to sit on it every time I had to pee? Probably not. (C, do not use that as an excuse to not put it down!!)

6. "When I look in the mirror I see the girl I was when I was growing up, with braces, crooked teeth, a baby face and a skinny body." Do you see a younger less secure person when you gaze in the mirror?

Sometimes.
7. “I was a pregnant vixen.” If you have ever been pregnant, or have been with a woman who was, how did effect your sex life?

Sorry, never been pregnant...next!
8. “Everything needs to be worked on...” What would you like to work on to become a better person?

Hmm...let's start with not being late to things and go from there. Baby steps.
9. "From an early age, I was aware of what America meant, and how the Marines at Camp Pendleton were ready to defend us at a moment's notice. I also remember what fabulous bodies those troops had." When did you think that you understood the sacrifices that people in the military make on behalf of their country?

When my friend and cousin were about to join the Army. That show Army Wives. And reading blogs by families where members are away because of the military.
10. "The bigger the better. Do I dare say that!?" In your experience, is there truth here?

There is some truth there. Though I have been with some that were large and didn't know how to work it, and some who were very small who definitely knew how to work it. I'd rather have large though...just sayin'.

Wednesday Wickedness

Hi and welcome to Wednesday Wickedness. We are like other memes in that we will ask you ten questions each and every Wednesday. But our little "twist" is that each week we will pick a famous person and pick ten of their quotes. Each of our questions will be based on the quotes. Got it? Great! Let's begin this week's meme!

Today we picked Bruce Springsteen. Here's Wednesday Wickedness!

1. “When it comes to luck, you make your own.” Do you believe you have that type of control over your luck?
Not at all. I don't think you can "make your own luck." I think that some things just happen for a reason, and you have no control over it, but it all works out in the end.(That does not mean I believe people should just sit back and let life happen to them though- I think the decisions one makes will lead them in a particular direction, but at some point luck and/or fate take over. I'm a romantic at heart.)

2. “You've got to learn to live with what you can't rise above.” What is something you have had difficulty rising above?
Yeast.

3. “Poor men wanna be rich, rich men wanna be kings, and a king ain’t satisfied till he rules everything.” Would you want to be rich?
No, I don't want to be rich. I want to be "comfortable." And not have any debt.

4. “The best music is essentially there to provide you something to face the world with.” Tell us about a song that helps you "face the world."
This song changes with the seasons. Right now it is "Billionaire" by Travie McCoy ft. Bruno Mars.



5. “In America everything's about who's number one today.” Have you ever been a fan of someone you thought would last but turned out to be a flash in the pan?
Not anyone famous, but yes, I've definitely done that with friends.

6. “Is a dream a lie if it don't come true, or is it something worse?” Has any dream of yours come true?
Yes.

7. “Our American government has strayed too far from American values. It is time to move forward. The country we carry in our hearts is waiting.” What would you change if you became the president?
I would never want to be President. Someone is going to criticize you no matter what you do- you just can't please everybody. Next!

8. "Yeah, I had gay friends. The first thing I realized was that everybody's different, and it becomes obvious that all of the gay stereotypes are ridiculous." How do you feel about gay rights?
I'm all for gay rights. Let them get married, have babies, adopt babies, be free. Gay people are still people- they should have the same rights regardless of who they want to sleep with at night.

9. " It's a sad man my friend who's living in his own skin and can't stand the company." Have you ever been disappointed in yourself?
I'm usually disappointed in myself at least once a week.

10. "The best music is essentially there to provide you something to face the world with." What's your favorite type of music? What's your favorite band?
First off...why is this quote on here again? Did Bruce Springsteen really have that little to say, that this one liner had to be put on here twice? And if so, maybe the quiz-maker should've chose someone else. Just sayin.

I like pop. And I know the words to most pop songs, and singing releases endorphins, the happy hormones, so then I'm happy,...or at least happier. I like some rock too, for the lyrics.

Wednesday Wickedness

Hey guys! It's another installment of Wednesday Wickedness! From the *site*: We are like other memes in that we will ask you ten questions each and every Wednesday. But our little "twist" is that each week we will pick a famous person and pick ten of their quotes. Each of our questions will be based on the quotes. Got it? Great! Let's begin this week's meme!

Phil Jackson-former baller/current coach of the LA Lakers

1. "Always keep an open mind and a compassionate heart.” Do you ALWAYS keep an open mind?
I try to, but I'm sure I don't.

2. “Wisdom is always an overmatch for strength.” Who is the wisest person you know? Who is the strongest?
Veronica is the wisest. My mom is probably the strongest person I know- gotta give credit where it's due.

3. "Yes, victory is sweet, but it doesn't necessarily make life any easier the next season or even the next day." Do you think a successful day at your job makes the next day better or not?
I think a successful day makes you look forward to the next day more positively, so in that respect, yes, it makes it better.

4. "...True joy comes from being fully present in each and every moment, not just when things are going your way." How would we tell by your behavior if you are having a bad day?
I wear my heart on my sleeve. You would most definitely know if I'm having a bad day!

5. "I gave it my body and mind, but I have kept my soul." Do you have days when you feel you gave it your all, but may have compromised your values?
uhhh...sure?

6. "Your problems never cease. They just change." What do you feel is your biggest problem at the moment?
Money. "Mo' money, mo' problems"...less money, mo' problems too! Oh, and finding a new place to live being that they just raised our rent for next year...arghhh.

7. "My dad always had this little sign on his desk: "The bigger your head is, the easier your shoes are to fill." He really drilled that in." Does your ego sometimes get in your way?
Yup.

8. "There is a saying that I love...It says: "There are no Zen masters, there's only Zen." "Zen master" is a contradiction in terms. You don't master Zen." Do you believe in Zen? If yes, can it be mastered?
These questions are boring me. Phil Jackson seems to have some sucky quotes. I'm all for Zen- Namaste friends.

9. "You can not teach competitiveness." Do you believe you could teach someone, like your child, to be competitive?
No, I think they have to be competitve on their own.

10. "Home is where the heart is, right?” Obviously Phil didn't originate this quote. He said it when asked if he'd retire after this season. Do you believe home is not a place but rather a state of mind?
Yes- I believe home is a state of mind. What's with all the yes/no questions?

Hi and welcome to our brand new Wednesday Wickedness. We are like other memes in that we will ask you ten questions each and every Wednesday. But our little "twist" is that each week we will pick a famous person and pick ten of their quotes. Each of our questions will be based on the quotes. Got it? Great! Let's begin this week's meme!

Today we picked Simon Cowell. Here's Wednesday Wickedness!

1. “If your lifeguard duties were as good as your singing, a lot of people would be drowning.” How well do you swim?
I sing better than I swim. I'm not a big "water" person.

2. “I think he knows how to articulate something that people are entertained by and still be true to the message he's trying to send, ... very aware of himself.” How self aware do you think you are?
Still learning. A few days ago I was told that I come off "a bit as a smart ass." It was completely unintentional. And sometimes I say things without thinking first. Oops.

3. “If you've got a big mouth and you're controversial, you're going to get attention.” Who has a big mouth that you like?
Kim Kardashian and Snookie. They both come off as pretty dumb and bratty, but funny!

4. “I think you have to judge everything based on your personal taste. And if that means being critical, so be it. I hate political correctness. I absolutely loathe it.” Do you believe in political correctness?
I believe that if you're in the public eye, you should be politically correct becuase you never know who's in your audience and what you're saying/doing could be offensive to someone. Personally however, I don't care.

5. “I find Paula patronizing. It's as simple as that. Paula is more damaging than I am to these contestants because a lot of people just shouldn't be singing for a living.” Do you ever patronize people?
Where I work, there are a lot of people who don't speak English very well. I sometimes fear I am patronizing them with my tone when answering a question they have. And I'm pretty sure I was patronizing my mom when she was first learning how to use a computer because I was pretty good at it and a brat- that was about 10 years ago though. I try not to be patronizing.

6. “Not everybody is perfect, and I don't think we should be looking for perfect people.” Do you or someone you know strive constantly to be perfect?
I don't strive to be perfect, and I can't think of anyone I associate with who does either.

7. “I never want to hear that song again. I cannot stand it. I'm allergic to it.” What song are you totally sick of and why?
"Fireflies" by Owl City.

8. “I like the fact that they're cocky now from the age of four.” How old were you when you got cocky? What changed to make you so?
I don't think I am cocky.

9. “And there's more open hostility among them because the competition is so intense.” When you compete with someone, have you ever gotten hostile?
It depends what the competition is for. I haven't been hostile while competing for a job or when applying for college, but definitely when it came to sports.

10. “Why are you having a normal conversation with him? This is a dairy farmer dressed as a woman.” Do you talk differently to someone because of the way that they are dressed?
I would love to say no, but I probably do. Not consciously though.

But our little "twist" is that each week we will pick a famous person and pick ten of their quotes. Each of our questions will be based on the quotes. Got it? Great! Let's begin this week's meme!

Today we picked Aretha Franklin. Here's Wednesday Wickedness!

1. "Trying to grow up is hurting, you know. You make mistakes. You try to learn from them, and when you don't, it hurts even more.” Do you think you always learn from your mistakes?
Nope. Well maybe, but not initially. I need a reminder of certain mistakes I've made, so I remember how bad it was the first time? Kinda like coconuts- I don't like coconuts. But every few years I have to try it again to make sure I really don't like it.

2. “I might be just twenty-six, but I'm an old woman in disguise... twenty-six goin'on sixty-five.” Have you ever felt that you were either older or younger, for your age at that time?
I always feel younger than my age- probably because I look a lot younger than I actually am. Every once in a while I think about it- like damn!- I'm 26! When the hell did that happen?! Guess I gotta get my $h!t together already!

3. “I think the hardest thing is losing weight. That's the hardest thing more than anything else.” Have you had trouble losing weight?
No. I've always had trouble putting on weight. Meh.

4. "Being a singer is a natural gift." Do you have any natural gifts?
Yes, I'm a natural at procrastinating. Really, some people try really hard, and can't do it- to me, it just comes naturally. Shoot, now I got that damn song stuck in my head "You can do it naturally...whoa, whoa, whoaaa"

5. "I always felt rock and roll was very, very wholesome music." What the most "wholesome" rock artist that you like?
Nelly Furtado.

6. "I sing to the realists; people who accept it like it is." Are you a realist?
Goodness no. I'm much more of an idealist/optimist. That's why it's really great to have a realist partner- keeps things in perspective.

7. "No one loves a party more than I. I am a people person." Do you like to party or are you more of a homebody?
Partyer, all the way. Love good people, good music, good food/drinks. I rarely miss a party, though now my "parties" have been centered more around weddings, showers, and babies. OMG THE BABIES! I had 2 baby birthdays one weekend last month, and another one coming  up this month. Kinda changes your whole view of parties. But it's a chance to see people you may not have seen in months, so getting togetehr is always a good time. Though once in a while staying home is great- relaxing. Especially with a good cuddle buddy ;)

8. "I'm gonna make a gospel record and tell Jesus I cannot bear these burdens alone." Do you feel the need to share your burdens?
Yes. To a fault. I don't know why, but sharing- at least with one good friend- always makes me feel better.

9. "I'm the lady next door when I'm not on stage." Do you know the lady next door? (yes, you can pick either side.)
Not well. I know that there's an Indian family with a rambuctious little boy to one side, and a woman/couple? across the hall who like to play reggae (particularly Bob Marley) on Sunday mornings.

10. "I never felt inferior or less than. I was blessed to grow up in a environment where self-worth was underscored." Do you ever feel inferior?
Sure have. I can't name a particular time/instance, but it has definitely happened, and more than once.

Hi and welcome to our brand new Wednesday Wickedness. We are like other memes in that we will ask you ten questions each and every Wednesday. But our little "twist" is that each week we will pick a famous person and pick ten of their quotes. Each of our questions will be based on the quotes. Got it? Great! Let's begin this week's meme!
Today we picked Taylor Swift. Here's Wednesday Wickedness!

1. "I never want to change so much that people can't recognize me." Do you believe people can truly change?
Yes, definitely. Not always for the better. But if we didn't change, we wouldn't be growing. I think life experiences- what we see, hear, learn, believe- and different people- who we are friends,enemies, family- all help us grow and change.

2. "People haven't always been there for me but music always has." Do you have people in your life you could always count on?
I like to believe that a certain times in my life there were different people who I could count on. But people come and go- there's a reason people from your past didn't make it to your present. One reason could be they already served their purpose in your life, just by being there.

3. "I’m intimidated by the fear of being average." Do you think there is anything wrong with being average?
No. I think most people are average, myself included. But to one person, you may be above-average.

4. "Never believe anyone who says you don't deserve what you want." Do you believe you deserve everything you want?
Hmm I want a lot. Not so sure about this one...

5. "I have to believe in fairy tales and I have to believe in love." Do you believe in fairy tale love?
No. I believe in fairy tales and their effect on a child, and I believe in love. But fairy tales are not real, therefore I cannot say I believe in "fairy tale love."

6. "I wouldn't want to date a pushover who would let me make all the plans and have all the control." Do you believe in sharing the control in your relationships?
Yes, completely. I did date a pushover...several actually. It got so boring so fast. I don't want to be dominated or pushed over myself, but I definitely believe in shared control.

7. "Sometimes [finding new friends] is the best thing about dating. I've met so many friends through guys that I've dated. And now, the guys are gone but the girls are still around." Did you ever make a close friend from someone that you've dated?
No. In fact, wuite the opposite- I've lost some friends from guys I've dated.

8. "But there are a lot of rumors out there that you just have to ignore." Has anyone ever spread something malicious about you?
Of course- females always talk sh*t about each other. If you don't agree, none of it ever got back to you- good job.

9. "I set goals that are just a little bit out of reach, but not totally out of reach." How do you go about setting your goals?
Short term goals I tend to think I will reach faster than I actually do. Long term goals...I usually just put off longer. Depends what the goal is really. And how feasible it is to reach.

10. " I remember seeing girls crying in the bathroom every Monday about what they did at a party that weekend. I never wanted to be that girl." Have you ever done something at a party that you've ever regretted?
Of course I have- it keeps life interesting! I mean, we all make mistakes, we're only human. And I see it more as a lesson learned...and at times, relearned.
