First, 11 random things about myself:
1. I can very successfully imitate a guy's handwriting.
2. I've been told I perpetually look guilty.
3. When I laugh I often don't make any noise, my shoulders just shake.
4. I've never dated in my life, or even had a serious crush.
5. I dislike musicals as a general rule.
6. I've been told I have a special smile that's just for when I'm talking about my little brother.
7. I love being organized but my room is often a mess.
8. My mom had to force me to start shaving my legs even when they were abundantly hairy.
9. When I was 9 I was miraculously cured of a thyroid problem by our lady of Fatima.
10. As a child one of my favorite past-times was inventing ways to torture my plastic Playmobil people.
11. I have a love affair with pretty clouds.
Secondly, my answers to the questions:
1. Do you know another language? I know Spanish well enough to read with occasional help from a dictionary and to communicate well enough to get along. I went shoe-shopping with a friend in a local store here and we spoke no Italian and the store attendant spoke little English, but we both spoke Spanish and so I was able to have a conversation with her about where I was studying, which shoes my friend wanted to try on, the fact that the shoes would stretch with wear, how long I had been studying Spanish, where the store attendant was from, if Spanish was her first language, etc. It was quite exhilarating. My goal is to be able to write poetry in Spanish, and learn other languages too.
2. Hot Chocolate or Coffee? As a college student I have to say coffee, although Italian chocolate is basically molten chocolate in a cup and therefore AMAZING.
3. What is your favorite type of music? Probably Alternative/Folk. I really like things with a good beat and a variety of instruments. Mumford and Sons is a good band.
4. Do you like dogs? Yes but not enough to bother caring for one unless it was a canine genius who could write my philosophy papers for me.
5. Are you hungry right now? No, I just ate a Mars bar and had a cappuccino. Late night studying.
6. Are you going to answer this question?
7. Do you like school? Yes, most of the time. I love the idea of school, but often not the execution of it. Like when I have really boring philosophy papers to write.
8. What is the craziest activity you can think of? Bungee jumping off of a cliff into a pit of alligators with a thread as your rope. That or being mean to a baby.
9. What's you favorite color? I'm partial to blue as a wearing color, but I really love all bright colors as long as they aren't neon. My mom made me a quilt and my art major friend says it looks like someone with ADD designed it. It probably has about 12 different colors and just as many patterns.
10. Do you know what Popple is? Yeah, it's a Christian band, right? That had some paraphernalia about it at the NCYC when I went a few years ago.
11. How tall are you? 5'7"
I promise I'll put up a legit post about Rome soon. I have some stuff in my journal I have to transfer here, and a really amusing story involving a gypsy and a train which I have to type up.
Ciao!
