I check my ryerson mail religiously, my hotmail not so much.

current life/career goals? if you arent sure then what are you contemplating?
I'd like to stick to the books, so a job at a publishing company is my goal at the moment. preferably fiction. Toronto is packed full of them, so it shouldn't be too difficult to land an internship. from there, if they like me, there's assistant to junior editor to senior and up! or there's other more respectable companies. or there's always just the idea of running my own! something like that.

favourite thing about your neighbour hood? and any memories there you love?
probably the kids I had to hangout with! a lot of my memories consist of playing road hockey religiously. every. day. I went everywhere with the boys. another good memory is of Jesse Kieley and I when we were little! it rained that afternoon, and the sun had come back out. we put on garbage bags over our clothes and went and sat in puddles because the sun had made them so warm hahaha.
for a guy do you prefer: long or short hair? tall or shorter than you? piercings or no? smoker non smoker? how much younger would you date? and how much older would you date?
I don't care about hair if it suits them. as long as it's shorter than mine and he doesn't rock a pony tail.
taller.
I'm not really a fan of facial piercings on guys, but the nose is okay.
preferably non smoker, but I've been with both.
I'm definitely not one to give a shit about age differences, but I don't know about younger. I mean, a lot of them I've seen ... just no. especially at my age. I want maturity, experience, and manners. a gentleman. kids these days just don't know how to make a girl feel like a lady!
how much older? I really don't know, it depends on the guy. obviously I'd be smart about it (no 40 year olds). so I guess I wouldn't close my mind to anybody in their 20's. ehhh, 28 and up is too old. I cannot help but feel like I'm going to get judged for this!
What's your favourite thing about September? Least?
favorite? moving to Toronto and going to uni! holy, I'm in love with my current stage in life. so. much. least? money. and not having enough of it. education is expensive?
Its nice to see your enjoying the uni life. wish I could say the same.
booo, what's wrong? :( it's so early in, 2 weeks maybe! give it some time.
thoughts on tattoos on guys and girls?
whatever you want! I have 4. I like them much better as accents, though. I personally would never want to be covered. there's just still something really stunning about bare skin.
Thursday, September 15, 2011
what do you look for in a guy?
at this point, I just want somebody that makes me happy. to bring me up! laughing is *so* important in my life. make me laugh a lot, but be sweet, and I'm yours.
What are you most insecure about physically? What about emotionally?
physically... my hands. emotionally? I'm not sure how to answer that.
Have you ever had a near death experience? If so, what happened?
I say no but my mom says yes. got ridiculously drunk when I was 14. unconscious, ambulance, all that jazz.
Monday, September 12, 2011
Father's middle name?
doesn't have one. his initial on his license for his middle name is G, but he just made it up on the spot.
Sunday, September 11, 2011
What is the hardest part about growing up, in your opinion?
just because you want something, it doesn't mean you're going to get it.
Friday, September 9, 2011
how's toronto? any boys?
Toronto is incredible, I am undoubtedly a city girl. it's been treating me very well so far! to be honest, boys are the furthest thing from my mind. I have too much to concentrate on right now, and it's about time for me to be alone. (I never am). relationships just get messy, and I don't need that stress in my life right now. I'm finding happiness in independence, and it's nice.
what's your semester schedule like?
I have mondays off! english, psychology, existentialism, pop culture and an academic writing course through the rest of the week. I'm too lazy to list times n stuff. only 15 hours, not bad.
Thursday, September 8, 2011
worst decision you ever made? best decision you ever made?
worst... hmm. I'm not entirely sure! but the best decision was the one I made to go to university. I can't believe I once imagined myself anywhere else.
worst decision you ever made? best decision you ever made?
worst... hmm. I'm not entirely sure! but the best decision was the one I made to study english in university. I really should have never been anywhere else!
Do you have a list of things that you want to do before you die? If so, what are 5 things off that list?
I don't have a list, but I can imagine they're all very typical. graduate university, sky dive, have children, travel, blah blah blah.
If you had to put your life in someone's hands, whose would it be?
well, I guess my mom's. she's already had it once.
What is your opinion on mental illness?
literally just came back from the book store with The Divided Self by R.D. Laing for one of my classes. look it up!
if you could change one thing in your life at the current moment, what would it be?
nothing. I'm exactly where I want (and need) to be.

What memories come to mind when you think about you and I?
girl, you said it all! so I'm going to try and list the ones you didn't :) talking about boys in data and getting in shit for it. Grinton... in general. remember in photography when our pinhole camera was the fucking boss? and we stayed in the darkroom late that one day and used up sooo many of the bigger photo papers when we weren't supposed to :| teachers getting us mixed up (we do not look alike?!) so many sour keys, I need to say it again. we had such a good clan in history and world religions?! I'm just remembering now. ahhh man... keep in touch, please!!
Thursday, August 18, 2011
do you want to be there when the world ends?
I would want to be there to see how it happens. but I guess if it was quick it wouldn't really matter. I've had dreams about a slow destruction of earth, and everything is on fire and dark. I can never get to my family in the dream, and it's the worst fucking feeling. so that would make me want to say no. if there's going to be suffering, then no.
What did you dream about last night?
it was fucked. my ex's dad was driving us and my friends to some fucking ghetto part of town to stay at my friend's apartment. there were all these gangsters walking around and my ex's dad thought it best if he walked with us so we wouldn't get hurt. everyone also convinced me that I wouldn't get killed if I took my top off, so I just walked to this chick's house topless. so uncomfortable. the place was a dump, and everyone started dancing and I just wanted a shirt. and then my ex was all of a sudden black. yep.
What was your worst travel experience?
probably losing my passport in France and having to train it from Nice to Rome. sounds adventurous and oh so fun! but no. it was fucking hot and dirty and stinky and so confusing and tiring. took us 24 hours straight of just TRAINS. and lugging 4 suitcases up and down stairs and NO ONE WILL HELP YOU. oh and THEN. getting into Rome at 5am, no sleep, just disgusting. and then you can't get a hold of the rest of your family to come pick you up so you're just waiting. waiting. and hoping you see them. for hours. no. just no.
If you could attend any concert, what would it be?
I've seen Brand New, Manchester Orchestra, Coldplay, and Foo Fighters. I couldn't ask for any more! probably Weatherbox, if I had a choice.
what was your favorite thing about your relationship with eric?
wow, haha. that relationship seems so ancient, but I guess it's really only been a few years. it's funny how you only think you remember the bad things? hmmm... well since the relationship was more of a long distance one, there was a lot of phone calls. every night he'd play either Elliot Smith, Emily Haines or Feist on the guitar over the phone until I fell asleep, so that was a nice part.
What memories come to mind when you think about you and I?
in the backseat with you of Sara's car and Chelsey is in the front seat yelling obscenities out the window at people and you're giggling like a maniac. also, Jordan Matthews' house... vaguely. a blonde shaggy haircut. ab. a sign we need moar?

you know what's been pissing me off, teresa? the fact that I asked you for a little playlist a while ago and IVE NEVER GOT AN ANSWER! Don't think i've forgotten missy. I'm still waiting.
HAHA, shit. I thought you would forget about it. WHO ARE YOU? tell me and the playlist is yours.
Wednesday, August 17, 2011
What's the origin of your name?
Teresa is my mom's middle name and somebody's first name I can't remember, Clementina is my Grandma's first name and my greatgrandma's middle name which would also be somebody's first name. Haha, every name travels so far in Italian families, seriously. Maljar should be Maljarova (for females) which is Czechoslovakian (when it was) and it means painter.

"why aren't you cuter..? type with more lettersss plz" someone used to say this to me all the time!? The irony being 'plz' has less letters than 'please' but ugh, yup...
haha, so weird! who has time to do these things??
how many tattoos do you have? what are they?
I have 4! a sparrow on my back, a quote on my ribs, a roman numeral 3 on my wrist, and a violin on my calf.

If you could bring anything home from a hotel room, what would you take?
I'm going to be living in one in less than 2 weeks muahahehe.
what do you do at the senior home?
I serve the residents in the dining room, mostly. every other weekend I work at the front desk as receptionist! recently, one of the resident's daughters has hired me to spent extra time with her mom. take her for walks, play bingo, draw with her, etc. I spend time with Daisy every tuesday and thursday afternoon.

What is one thing someone who is significant in your life today has taught you?
my mom just freaked the fuck out because she thought my dad and I were ganging up on her, so I guess she taught me never to underestimate menopause and how fucking crazy it makes a person.
Friday, August 12, 2011
Wednesday, August 10, 2011
What is your relationship like with your mother? what about your father?
mom: deep down, we agree on nothing. but she makes me laugh, so it's not always an argument. it's either one or the other: we're having the greatest time and bonding like crazy, or we fucking hate each other.
dad: I take after him in the way that we keep things to ourselves, so we never have much to say to each other. he's never been an emotional or loving person, and I've finally learned not to resent him for that. so I'd say it's comfortable between us, now.
do you prefer to be in a group or alone?
if it's a small group with my close friends, I'll be there.
Tuesday, August 9, 2011
whose your best friend?
I only have a handful of people in my life other than my family that actually mean something to me. so all 4 of them!
Monday, August 8, 2011
Important question. How do you feel about Maroon 5?
haha, whoa! one of their songs came on the radio today while I was getting ready for work and I was like, "damn, Maroon 5." too weird. I was into them back in the day!
what upsets you? what makes you happy?
sometimes the same thing for both! people, mostly. but my dog never upsets me.
what is your most prized possession?
I don't know, nothing material I can think of. probably my emotional strength!
are you/have you ever been in love? was/is it a positive or negative experience, why?
yes and both. love isn't always la la land and lollipops, but if it was I don't think it'd be love at all.
Saturday, August 6, 2011
if you could have one wish come true right now, what would it be?
totally for all my loved ones to find happiness.
Is there a job you think you'd be good at? What about one you'd be bad at?
I think I'd be a good mom, but a horrible salesman.
Tuesday, August 2, 2011
What's your biggest phobia?
I'm scared of the dark, but I'm TERRIFIED of the forrest in the dark. holy fuck.
What has been the hardest decision you have had to make in your life so far?
removing people, it never gets easier.
When you think about yourself, what are some things that come to mind?
violin, my tattoos, silver jewellery, purple, boy.
Monday, August 1, 2011
Do you love yourself? Are you in love with yourself?
I don't know how that is supposed to feel ... I mean, it's me. can you ever really "look" at yourself to even make that decision? who's looking at you looking? you'll never see your entire self because you are constantly your entire self, you can't separate it. are you with me here?! mindfuck. I'm so tired.
Respond: "When you leave this place, do everything in your power to live an interesting life."
too forced. let the chips fall where they may, but always be accepting and willing.
if you could go back in time and experience anything, what would it be?
maybe a couple new years agooooooo.
Where do you think you would be without the people currently in your life?
well, without my family I would be nothing. they're the constant ones, the others come and go. I'm here now because of me. any direction or decision or change I've made can be traced back to the same body, so I doubt my whereabouts would be different. perhaps if I had some more consistent people in my life from the start, they would be!
What are some things that you tend to worry about the most?
not being on time, my loved ones dying, money.
Favourite teacher? Why them?
Mr. D because he made me realize my potential. he was the first and only one that saw anything remotely unique and special in me, specifically with my writing. he was an english major himself, and he used to bring me all these university booklets.. he basically planned my future, haha. he was always so excited for me, and he constantly pushed me to go further with my dreams. I remember he told me that if he ever had a daughter, he hoped she would be like me. which was pretty sweet to hear.
What would you rather keep to yourself than express? Why not let it out?
meh, keep to myself. more often than not, things get misunderstood and misinterpreted, and most people just wait for their turn to talk. I know what's good for me.
Tell me about the last book you read. Why did you choose it, and why did you continue flipping pages?
The Giver! I remember reading it in grade 6 and really enjoying it. I understood it a lot more this time around.

If you were an animal, which do you think you'd be? Why? What about me?
I thought I'd be something cool, until my friends told me I'd be a pony. A PONY. their logic was that ponies are assholes. I really don't know, now. for you... a panther. very sleek, poised and careful, but shouldn't be tested.

what's a song you can play on the violin? you never play for anyone so how can we know how you are lol
haha, uhhhhh. I don't know! classical music isn't quite as simple when it comes to song titles.
Do you believe in a universal moral code, beyond all specifics and pieces of each individual's sense of what is right and wrong?
maybe. we lived once without one, right? it came from somewhere, these ideas of right and wrong that are (for the most part) agreeable amongst us. hmmmMmmMmmMmm.
Would you consider yourself a risk taker? In what respect(s)?
I'm so scared of settling to the point that I'll run away from something good for me if I believe I'm playing it too safe. risks are good, essential for me. but every so often they just turn into fuck ups.
What scares you about the/your future?
money, losing people, growing old, what if, regret, the economy, the environment, addictions, cancer, the end.
To you, what is an artist? By this definition, would you consider yourself one?
it has a lot to do with creation rather than duplication (of images, ideas, etc). there's an incredible difference between an artist and simply a good painter. like the ocean and a puddle. and no, I wouldn't consider myself one.
How do you determine your own personal "favourites"? Is it a process to be consciously worked on, or is it something that is naturally there from within?
it just happens! I can usually tell when something is going to be a favourite right away, and time just confirms it.
Who was the last person you met, and what was your first impression of them? Would you like to see them again? Why or why not?
some girl, I can't remember her name, who is staying in the same residence as me. I wouldn't really care to see her again, since she was completely full of attitude with her mom and the tour guide. bye bye.
What makes you upset? Angry? Sad?
I used to think I knew, until certain tragic things would happen that surely would provoke a typical emotion and yet nothing would happen in me. on the other hand, mundane things like a simple look can have me in ruins. moment by moment, I surprise myself.
To you, what is an artist? By this definition, would you consider yourself one?
to me, an artist is somebody who creates not duplicates. there is an incredible difference between an artist and a good painter, like the ocean and a puddle. and no, I wouldn't consider myself one!
To you, what is an artist? By this definition, would you consider yourself one?
I don't exactly know what an artist is, but I know that it has a great deal to do with creation. I do, however, think that there is an incredibly large and vast space between an artist and a good painter. people get them confused. and no, I wouldn't consider myself one.
Are you a good person? How are you sure?
I've been struggling with this question long, long before it appeared here now. any ounce of belief that I am is difficult to sustain when I only hear otherwise. so really, I'm not sure.
is lindsey your new best friend?
I don't know what you mean by 'new'! we've been close for over 4 years.
What is something that I have taught you, if anything at all, that you think is worth mentioning?
we've never actually *really* spoken! we mainly converse through questions on this thing and get to know each other through our responses, haha. but it's a start! you seem like a really sweet girl, who I'm sure I could learn a few things from.
Do you believe that the world would continue to exist unperceived?
interesting. I haven't given it enough thought to make a decision! but maybe now I will.

Would you recommend doing ib English? How did you do? Are 6's and 7s possible?
I would highly recommend it if you enjoy english. I adored that class. It not only taught me a lot of useful techniques and tips when dealing with any and all things english, but it changed my entire thought process. It was good, though. the way my brain functions when I'm in that environment feels the most natural and effortless, like that's the way it should always be. It's when I feel at my best. but that's not going to be the same for everybody, there were a few that dreaded stepping into that room. absolutely 6's and 7's are possible! they hype it up too much, I think. I got 7's on both my mock exams. you just have to put the work in, of course. but it won't feel like work if you enjoy it. I got 90% the first semester and 93% the second.

Who is your favourite fictional character?
all I can think about is Peter Griffin, mmmaahaha. what a riot.
What is something that I have taught you, if anything at all, that you think is worth mentioning?
we're not close enough for me to mention anything specific, but judging from what I've seen and read, I feel as if there's a lot I could learn from you. fair?
What is a flaw of mine, in your opinion?
I can't say I know you well enough to pick out any! which I'm a little grateful for, haha. I hate picking people apart to their face.
Do you believe that everyone is a little bisexual, or curious at the bare minimum?
giving it some thought as to what you might be into is perfectly healthy. I wouldn't say that everyone is a little bisexual, but I wouldn't exactly say that someone is 100% straight/gay, either. love is love.

Wednesday, July 20, 2011
What are some things that are important to you?
relationships, well-being, adventure, risks, experience, positivity, flow and acceptance. just some of 'em!
Describe an ideal Sunday.
spaghetti and meatballs and delicious Italian cuisine at my Nonna's house in her basement, the entire clan seated at one long (very loud) table. every single Sunday until she passed, she made sure we learned the meaning and importance of family. since then, my grandma's taken the responsibility of carrying on the tradition. I hope that someday I will, too!
Monday, July 18, 2011
What is something people don't seem to know about you?
anybody who knows me admits to being intimidated by me before knowing me. which is silly stuff! I don't bite, and that's for everyone to know.
What is something that I have taught you, if anything at all, that you think is worth mentioning?
the importance of your mind taking a backseat.
Saturday, July 16, 2011
What is your favourite tv show?
I'm deeply attached to Sex and the City, hahaha. Dexter's always a good one, too!
Friday, July 15, 2011
Have you ever ridden a horse? and if so, did you like it?
I have! only twice. the first time I was 5 and it decided to fuck the path and run away and I steered it back like a boss. the second time was last year in Quebec and I was so ridiculously hungover and unwilling to learn french. the horse's name was also Tequila, which was fitting! haha, horses are alright I guess.
Harry Potter opens today. If you were going to cast a magic spell, what spell would you cast?
have no interest in Harry Pooper, sorry
Thursday, July 14, 2011
What do you love most about the country you live in?
our pride!! seen through anything we do (olympics, hockey, BEER) I fucking love being apart of this beautiful country and being able to say that I'm Canadian. I didn't realize it until I spent a month in Europe, holy hell did I miss this wonderful piece of land.
What is a quote/saying you love and/or live by?
spoken by my mommy and never forgotten, "you get out of a relationship what you put into it." most powerful impact any saying's ever had on me, fo sho.

are you and mary still close?
we've been pretty busy with our own lives n whatnot but we're still pals!
What has been the best part about your summer so far?
I'm not sure! probably just finding contentment in the moment.
Monday, July 11, 2011
Do you believe in the one for now, or the one forever?
I believe in the one for now, and the one from now on. It doesn't have to be one or the other, I think both can happen.
What do you think would happen if apes took over? #apeswillrise
they'd look at my nostrils and adopt me.
Sunday, July 10, 2011

what are your measurements? like bust waist hips height
haha, whoa! uhmm. height: 5'7"ish
I haven't been measured for the others in a little over a year, but at the time I was 32' 22' 34'. I don't think I've changed much since then, so hopefully that answers your question?!
What's the most fun thing you have going on this week?
my weeks don't consist of much anymore! basically work and yoga. it's fun for me, though!
Thursday, July 7, 2011
If you had access to a time machine, where and when would be the first place you travel to?
10 years from now, just to make sure I made it.
What's the longest you've ever gone without a bath or shower?
a week, haha. so disgusting. my ovarian cyst burst and I was in bed the entire time on codeine, absolutely wiped.
Wednesday, July 6, 2011
if you could pick one city to live in, anywhere in the world, where would you like to be?
for how long?! I'd like to live in a lot of places over the years, just temporarily. I'm not sure where I'd like to settle down, though. somewhere close to home.
if you could pick one city to live in, anywhere in the world, where would you like to be?
probably Ottawa. before it was trendy as fuck.
Would you rather do something you love for a living and have a lower salary or do something you don't like very much but are good at and have a higher salary?
this is tough, and people are lying if they say it isn't! I would love to do something that I enjoy for a living, but having enough money is important these days. It would depend on how low/high the salaries are.
Tuesday, July 5, 2011
Where would you like to spend your retirement?
I'd love to open up my own shop/cafe before I retire. I don't want to waste away, I'd like to stay productive and keep my heart invested into something I love.
What are you most excited about right now?
MONTREAAAALLL YEAAAAAHHHHHHH ... and pretty much everything else that's to come the rest of this year. change is in effect, and I'm glad. I need a new scene.
Monday, July 4, 2011

If you could go back in time 10 years and tell your younger self something, what would it be?
probably what my mom often tells me. "don't do what I did."
Are you a morning or night person?
hmm, I don't know! it differs. I'd like to say night, but sometimes I can be a very sleepy bear.
Would you rather be hurt physically or emotionally? Why?
physically! I have a very high pain tolerance. the latter, not so much.
Thursday, June 30, 2011
What family member are you most like? Explain it!
god, such a fair mixture. crazy and obnoxious and emotional like my mom. secretive and cold and put together like my dad. my parents are complete opposites, literally. my mom is fur, my dad stone. my mom colour, my dad black and white. my mom was a band guy lover, rock n roller, drug experimenting free spirit -- my dad was a cop. hahaha. I'm somewhere in there, for sure.

If you had to choose 1 of your friends or family members to live with, who would it be and why? Do you think it would enrich your relationship?
my sister! because I did once. she's been out of the house for a long time now, but I got the chance to live with her for a month in Europe again. we just... work. it's really, really nice. our relationship enriches by the day as we grow older and more understanding of each other. so absolutely!
What do you tell yourself regularly?
"you'll never see these people again" is a big one, haha. but sometimes... I do.
Why do you get out of bed every morning?
because I have to! or else I'd stay there all day, get fired from my job, and learn nothing. wouldn't that be nice.
What is something tangible that scares you? What is something intangible that scares you? Why do you think these fears exist? Do you think you will ever overcome them?
I'm really, really afraid of the dark. that's the main one. I'm not even embarrassed to admit it now! I used to be, though. anywhere. even a familiar place, my chest grows heavy and I get panicky, nervous. even if it's for a moment, turning the lights off when I leave a room. I need to have a trail of light ahead of me. it's an awful feeling. you won't see it if you're with me, but it's under wraps constantly! this gut twisting feeling, my steps become a little quicker and my eyes dart in every direction. UGH. I can't even think about it. like, if my lights shut off right NOW. I'd die.
I was trying to figure this out before, trying to figure out where it came from, and this one memory popped up. my house was pretty weird for a while when I was younger, paranormal occurrences were regular. shit got really bad, heavy, and we had 2 exorcisms performed on the house before it was okay. most of it happened to my mom and my sister, and in my sister's room (my room, now). anyway, it was in the middle of all that, and my sister was at home babysitting my brother and I. we were all in my sister's room at night, just doing nothing. she left the room to go get something, and my brother got up to leave too. before exiting, he shut off the lights and closed the door, leaving me inside her room. I remember being so terrified! I didn't know what was in there, and that was the worst part. I was screaming, crying and banging on the door begging him to let me out. but he wouldn't! My sister eventually heard me and let me out, giving my brother hell. but yeah, it could have been that. but I don't know! I don't know if I'll overcome it, but I hope I do!
What do you do when you feel down?
pretend I'm the singer of a band and that I wrote all these sad songs that I listen to hahaha I'm not kidding. shit. makes me feel better, because I know I didn't write them - and then all of a sudden I'm not so alone!
Why do you regret the things that you regret, if you have any regrets at all?
I always regret things at first, and then I look back and I'm like, "well shit, that really needed to happen."
Have you ever felt emotionally naked?
no, I can't say I have. I do a pretty good job at keeping a handle on my emotions, some of 'em never surfacing at all. good or bad, you tell me!

What are your thoughts on the death penalty? Do you agree with it? Why or why not?

What is love to you, in only 1 sentence?
you make the decision to love another person, and that little bastard holds on through *everything*.
(none of this "falling out of love". you didn't have it in the first place, then.)

Under what circumstances do you feel most inspired? And least?
most: alone. absolutely alone.
least: opposite ^
Respond: "I need to be alone to see if I need to be with you."
you don't realize how insanely appropriate this is for me right now. only understandable once you're the one saying it.

When you were little, where was the best hiding place when playing hide'n seek?
ugh I was always so bad at that. underneath a chair.
are you in love? if so whats it like
I wouldn't say that I'm in love, because I feel as if it's grown way passed that, onto loving. I never thought I'd say it, but there's a difference between the two. and the real one is the best thing that's ever happened to me.
Have you ever been told that you've changed? How did it feel? How did you react?
Kind of. It was in grade 8, when I really rooted myself. Established the Teresa I am today. with my teacher's encouragement, I started reading and writing a lot. I really started expanding on my passions and abilities, and my friends at the time didn't like it. I remember: "you think you're better than everyone else because you read books." I felt sad that they couldn't understand. However, that change (for the better) had to happen for me to ever be happy with myself. Haven't looked back since!

I feel as if everything exciting is to come.

what is more motivating, the thought of success or the fear of failure?
great question. I'm going to say the thought of success, it's way more positive than the latter!
would you ever experiment with a 3 some just tooo discover what it feels like from both directions/same time?
no, sex means more to me than that. one on one is best, I don't wanna share/be shared.

What always makes you laugh? Alternatively, what always makes you cry?
everything makes me laugh. hilarious moments, TERRIBLE moments. life can be really, really funny if you let it be! I'll have to say the most consistent is my sister. she made me puke at the dinner table once from making me laugh so hard. then of course we laughed even harder, it was painful. I have to talk myself out of peeing in my pants most times, too. funny, funny fucking girl.
the scene in Candy when the baby's a still born. LOSE IT. always cry. I actually cry very easily, and often. just secretly.

What is something you look for in a boyfriend/girlfriend?
a good sense of humor, preferably one that matches mine. I wanna have fun, is all!
What is something embarrassing that has happened to you? Are you able to look back now and laugh at it?
omg fuck my life, too embarrassing to even say hahaha but if you know, YOU KNOW. of course I'll laugh at it ... eventually.

What is the weirdest thing you will ever admit to having done in the past?
I was in grade 9 and I really didn't want to go to school. I'm terrible at faking sick because I'm an awful liar and my mom always knows, so I tried thinking of ways to actually make myself sick. I was half asleep through all of this, in my bed. I decided that it would be a good idea to punch myself in the stomach, and that it would probably make me sick. So I punched myself as hard as I could in the stomach. I ended up going to school.
How was your birthday!?
It was ... eye opening in the worst and best ways, I guess I'll say! there's good ones and bad ones, right?

what is your dream(s)/goal(s) in life and are you perusing them?
I just want to make money doing something I love to do, and one day start a family. those are the big ones. I've already started down the path of the first one, but no babies for me yet! I'm really enjoying just going with the flow right now, and doing what feels right in a moment. I only get to be young once, after all! my pursuit is a long one, and it's way too early to worry. one step at a time.

If you could have any one thing in the world, what would it be?
what a question! I don't even know where to start thinking about this, I can't.
You said you are going to school for English, so I am assuming you like to write? What do you like to write about? ps, you are a VERY insightful person. it is very intriguing!
haha, thank you! :) I always like your questions, just so you know. I do like to write! I write mostly on the side just for me, sometimes about real life and sometimes not. I don't know, I'm an amateur! I've just always enjoyed it a lot. I'll take creative writing classes in uni, but I'm mostly excited for the books. literature... mmMmMmmMmmm don't get me started.

which parent are you more like?
my mom, I would have to say. anybody that has met her can confirm! she's little and loud, she has a strong personality and a nurturing heart. she's had a wicked past, but takes in life with an even more wicked sense of humor. my dad is cold all of the time, and anybody that *really, really* knows me knows the ice cold front I can put up. there's a good mixture of both of my parents in here, but definitely more my mom.

what is something about yourself you'd like to improve?
my health! a more balanced and nutritious diet, and more trips to the gym.
do you ever have reoccurring dreams? if so, what's the most common one?
already answered this, ya boob.

do you ever have reoccurring dreams? if so, what's the most common one?
oh lala, thanks for shootin' it back! yes, actually.
I have just one, at least once a week, and it's been reoccurring for a long time now. I have a dream that I'm placed in front of a complete stranger, and we're standing face to face in the middle of a crowd, like a circle made for a fight. It's a different person every time, and I never know who they are, but I'm punching them in the face. except every single vengeful punch I throw, it loses it's strength as soon as it touches the person's cheek, so I barely even brush them. I'm trying over and over and over and over to do damage to their face, but every punch turns out light as a feather. the person is laughing hysterically at me, and the entire crowd is laughing, too. "she can't even throw a punch, look at her, watch this." stuff like that. It's the most frustrating feeling, ugh!
if someone told you they'd pay you $5000, would you fuck them?
no! I wouldn't. the money would be nice, but it wouldn't be worth the reputation and the feeling of my self respect going down the drain.
do you ever have reoccurring dreams? if so, what's the most common one?
do you ever have reoccurring dreams? if so, what's the most common one?
Answer here
So im really scared to get in uni. what type of averages do you think you need, lets say for a medical science course. Im totally freaking out that having a 70/80 average isnt good enough :(
you're asking the wrong person!! I know nothing about that kinda stuff, I'm just going for English haha. sorry I can't help!
You give such good answers to everything! I like that :)
well thank you!! I'm glad I amuse somebody on this thing.
Do you live more in the past or the present?
I always find my mind stuck in the past, it makes sense to me. what is the present and where is it? a second, a day, a hairline. NOW. tell me if you know, honestly. and the future... well, who knows if there even is one. is it a predetermined design or a blank white slate we unfold onto, making our own patterns? everything immediately becomes the past, if you think about it. it happened and you know it, it's safe back there. I like that.

Who in your life makes you a better person?
I don't find that specific people make me a better person, but my love for them does. realizing you love a person, romantically, friendly, whichever way, already sparks enough change inside of you for the better. it makes you want to do good things, it's weird.
is it bad that I am nearly 17 and havent had a boy kiss me
not. at. all. everybody goes at their own pace! and I truly believe that good things come to those who wait. just don't rush, please. do me a favor, stranger, and wait for a gentleman.
who is the love of your life?
this question puzzles me once I actually look at it! the only constant love I've had my entire life is from my mother. romantically, I've had one love in my life which bloomed about 3 and a half years ago.

I want to hear your story. I want to hear about your life and the things you have had to deal with to get where you are today.
too much, too much. nobody will know but me.
You have a very open mind for a person your age, I don't know you but it's great to see! From what I have read you seem like a beautiful person inside and out
wow, thank you!! this is such a nice compliment. :)
