| Do you like nighttime or daytime better?: | I like them both, it depends on what I want to be doing. |
| Did you see your bestfriend today?: | No. |
| Do you believe that highschool relationships ever make it?: | They do. It's rare, but they do. |
| Are you ears pierced more than once, if at all?: | Not at all. |
| Have you ever gotten flowers from a significant other?: | I think I've only gotten a chocolate flower. |
| Do you think dances (prom, homecoming,etc) are fun or lame?: | Mostly lame. |
| Do you wear pants or skirts more often?: | That's hard for me to answer. I wore practically only skirts for all of August and September, and have started phasing in pants (along with dreses/skirts with tights or leggings). By the coldest part of the year, I'll be wearing only pants. (Or pants x2 plus leggings and thick socks). |
| If you wear skirts, are you more likely to wear leggings, or go bare?: | It depends on the weather. In August and September, I went bare, unless I was working at an elementary school that day and know I would be playing outside with the kids at recess. I have to wear leggings now or I would freeze. |
| Do you drink tea? Hot or cold?: | Not often. I'll take either. I need to let my hot tea cool quite a bit before I drink it, though; I can't just slurp it down like some people. |
| Have you noticed that EVERYONE is 'bisexual' these days?: | Amongst young people, yeah. It actually makes me kind of happy to see. Human sexuality is way more fluid than we realize, and I think it's totally natural we accept that. More power to the people who can admit when their attractions don't fall neatly within the box. |
| Since when did sexual origins become fads??: | Sexual origins? Did you mean sexual orientations? And it's not a fad, it's just that we live in a more accepting age, which I view as a good thing. And if a few girls go experimental lesbian for a few years and settle into heterosexual a few years later, I don't see that as a negative thing. You never really know until you try, right? |
| Are you a vegatarian?: | No. And my iron-lacking body thanks me. |
| Do you like being single? Or rather be in a relationship?: | I definitely prefer being in a relationship. I've spent most of my life single and I know how to do it gracefully, but damn is it nice to have a companion to share my life with. |
| Are you dependent on relationships to find happiness in your own life?: | Definitely not, but I won't deny they help! |
| Snazzy opinion section on hot button topics. Woo Woo. | |
| Iraq war: fighting for freedom, or killing for oil?: | A little of both. While I think it's a misguided mission, there are plenty who are there in the midst of it who believe in the justness of their actions. In which case I say, better them than me because I wouldn't know what to do about any of it. Maybe they can see the big picture better than I can. |
| Abortion: murder, or a woman's right?: | Both. |
| Gay marriage: abomination of god, or love is love?: | Love is love. |
| Illegal immigrants: taking our jobs, or escaping poverty?: | Again, both. |
| Religion: live by it, or live without it?: | Personally, I don't need an organized faith; I seek God by my own path. I can't say how it should work for anyone else. |
| Randomesque. | |
| Are you online 24/7?: | No. |
| Have you ever been dumped by a boyfriend/girlfriend?: | Does 'dumped' just mean 'broken up with?' because, if so, I guess. But it didn't feel as harsh as 'dumping'-- we were at a crossroads and had to make a decision, and he made the call. |
| Does it bother you when people never answer their cell phones?: | No, because am one of those people :-P I turn it on manner mode at work and then I forget to change it back and never hear it. |
| Do you have cable TV, satellite, or neither?: | I have whatever you get if you have a TV in your house in Japan and don't pay for anything having to do with it. I get like five channels, when my TV works. |
| Are you wearing shoes?: | I'm wearing my indoor slippers, which are normal shoes (flexible loafer-like flats) but have never been worn outside. |
| Have you ever painted? Do you like painting?: | Yes. I found paint a difficult medium to work with. I prefer crayons and cray-pas, stuff like that. |
| Everyone thinks they're a photographer. Do you like taking pictures?: | Well now I sound like a douche if I do. But, yes. I don't do much in the way of artsy shots, mostly just scenery around Japan (because it's gorgeous-- my photo skills have nothing to do with it) and photodocumentation of my life. |
| Do you have a brand of pop?: | That I like best? Not really. |
| What is your all-time favorite movie?: | Hard to say. |
| are you more of a country redneck, or city hippie?: | I'm as much one of those things as I am the other, which is to say very little of either. |
| Not everyone can afford an iPod. Can you?: | I could afford to get an ipod right now if I wanted one. I'm considering getting a bigger one, actually, since my Nano just holds 4G. |
| Are you a dog person or a cat person?: | I like both of them, seriously. |
| Are you addicted to texting?: | No, but Robert is getting me more into it since he's a bit of a texter. |
| Do you text and drive? You know that's completely irrisponsible, right?: | No. I don't even drive. |
| What would happen if you found out you were pregnant?: | I'd contact the Pope and tell him we've got another immaculate conception on our hands. |
| Do you have a favorite aunt or uncle?: | No, I don't really know my aunts and uncles that well. |
| Do you prefer rock ballads or nitty gritty, heavy music?: | Both? |
| Are you old enough to have owned an original Gameboy Color?: | I'm old enough to, I think, but I didn't. |
| Are you wearing anythin you've borrowed from a friend?: | No. |
| Out of all your friend, who is the most obnoxious?: | That's an obnoxious question. |
| Which is more annoying: scene/emo kids, or snobby/preppy cheerleaders?: | I'm a bit too old to have much experience with scene/emo kids. Emo was like just starting to be a thing as I was graduating, and hell if I even know what scene is. There's all these videos on YouTube about how to do 'scene hair' and everyone kind of ends up looking like a matted dog. |
| What''s the most expensive item of clothing you own?: | My suit. |
| Whopper or BigMac?: | No preference. |
| Do you even like fast food?: | I don't hate it, I just don't eat it that often. Especially in Hagi, where there are no McDonalds or KFCs, etc. |
| Are your nails painted at the moment? Iif so,what color?: | No. |
| Have you ever been cheated on?: | Not that I know of. |
| What would happen if you found out you were being cheated on right now?: | I'd be pretty shocked and upset and want some explanation. |
| What time is it?: | 3:30 pm. |
| Do you think dragons and faeries are gay or cool?: | (Fairies are totally gay! Lol). I can see the appeal, but it's not particularly appealing to me. I feel like I've outgrown it. |
| Do you think saying "gay" is very insulting?: | If you mean it something other than happy or homosexual, yeah. |
| When was the last time you played Hide n Seek?: | At recess with some kids a couple weeks ago. |
| Do you file your nails or bite them off?: | I am getting so that I file them (most often to keep from biting them), but occasionally I slip and bite. |
| Are you an outgoing person, or are you more reserved?: | More reserved, at least at first. Become my friend, and then just try to get me to shut up. |
| Did you do anything exciting today?: | I rode a boat to school and talked about Halloween to a bunch of middle-schoolers. |
| You must lose either an arm or a leg. Which is it?: | A leg. |

| Spooky Costumes | |
| Do you dress up for Halloween?: | Yes. |
| What are you dressing up as this year?: | Assuming I get to celebrate Halloween (school cultural festival is the same day; I have to hope I can make it after that), Hermione-- we're going to do a set of HP characters. |
| Well thats pretty cool. What's the best costume you've ever seen?: | That is a hard question. There are costumes I've been impressed with becuase they were accurate, because they suited the wearer, because they were ingenious, or because they were hilarious. |
| Wow. Impressive. Ever entered a costume contest?: | No. |
| If yes, did you win, or were you a loser?: | N/A. |
| Do you usually buy your costumes?: | I usually buy pieces of things to assemble a costume, rather than buy a set costume. I have bought set costumes, though. I also have a costume-design graduate as a friend. |
| TRICK OR TREAT!!! | |
| Do you still trick or treat, or do you hand out candy?: | I am in the weird limbo where I do neither, because I am too old for the one but also don't own a house, so no one comes trick-or-treating to my place. Also, I live in Japan, where they don't treat-or-treat at all. |
| Is trick or treat the best part of Halloween?: | No, because I still enjoy it even though I don't do it anymore. |
| Do you usually get/give out a lot of candy?: | When I was little, I was only allowed once around the immediate neighborhood, so I never got tons. I thought it was a bit greedy to go after too much; plus, my mom was strict about how much of it I could eat and we often still had leftovers at Christmas. I guess I gave out a good amount when in high school I started giving instead of getting, but it varied from year. Sometimes I saw a boring lack of people. |
| What do you do with the candy you don't like/want?: | Trade it or just don't eat it. Usually someone in the house would eventually eat it, or it'd get thrown out. |
| What's your favorite Halloween candy?: | The plain Hershey's bars and milk duds. You have to have the milk duds. I swear I never eat them any other time but Halloween, but you need them then. |
| Which is better-candy corn or caramel apple suckers?: | Caramel apple suckers, though I am one of the few who like candy corn. |
| Is it car-mal or cara-mel?: | I have a compromise for this the same way I have one for soda and pop. If it's solid, it's car-mel. If it's gooey, it's car-a-mel. |
| What candy do you usually get the most of?: | It varied every year, obviously. Starbursts seemed to be a biggy. |
| How long does it usually take to eat it all?: | As I said, I often had leftovers until Christmas, but I usually was only allowed to eat like a maximum of three pieces of candy a day. |
| Spooktacular Movies:Have You Seen... | |
| The Nightmare Before Christmas?: | Part of it once when I was little and it freaked me out. I really want to watch it again because I'm pretty sure I'd love it. |
| Nightmare On Elm St.?: | Nope. |
| Scream?: | Nope. |
| Halloween?: | Nope. |
| Friday the 13th?: | Nope. |
| Freddy vs. Jason?: | Nope. |
| Jeepers Creepers?: | Nope. |
| The 6th Sense?: | Part of it when flipping through channels on TV. I think I have it on VHS here, maybe I'll watch it. |
| The Amityville Horror?: | Nope. |
| Poltergiest?: | Nope. |
| The Legend of Sleepy Hollow?: | The cartoon-y one or the full length live action Tim Burton one? I've seen the former many times, and the latter I saw half of when we watched it in 11th grade English during our horror unit. (I remember there being an issue where a bunch of us could only see half of it, and yet she made us write a paper on it even though we hadn't seen all of it and I was kind of pissed. I think I still did okay on the paper, though. *Shrug.*). |
| It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown?: | Yes. |
| Halloweentown?: | Yes-- the first and the second AND Halloween High. (It was on TV junior year one day when I was in the suite alone, lol). |
| The Exorcist?: | Nope. |
| The Exorcism of Emily Rose?: | Nope. |
| Did you like my punny title for this section?: | It wasn't terribly creative, but foolish puns have never bothered me. |
| PARTAYZ!!! | |
| Ever been to a Halloween Party?: | Of course. |
| Ever thrown one?: | Kind of. I did about half the organizing for the one thrown in Keith/Henry/Mike/Joe's suite junior year. It was in their place, but I think I made the Facebook invite and helped set up everything. |
| Ever gone to a Halloween party at a bar?: | No. |
| If yes, did you get really really drunk?: | N/A. |
| Are you throwing a party this year?: | No. |

| played spin the bottle?: | Nope. Once again, never played period. |
| told spooky stories in the dark?: | Yes. |
| played with a ouija board?: | No. I've always wanted to do a ouija board or a levitation and I never have. |
| BOO! It's Haunted! | |
| Ever been to a haunted house?: | Yes, the kind they set up to be haunted. |
| Ever been to one that was actually haunted?: | Probably, but not actively or explicitly enough that I was aware of it. |
| Hm...Ever hosted a haunted house?: | We made a haunted for Neil in the attic above the garage at the lake. He was totally unfreaked out until Alex reached out of a seemingly innocuous cardboard box and grabbed him at the end. |
| What was the scariest one you ever went to?: | I remember being most scared of my church haunted attic-- mostly because I was little, I'm sure. There was a room with a strobe light, and what looked like a wax figurine in a room full of junk. But then it came alive! Lol, so predictable but it freaked me out. |
| What made it so scary!: | The fact I had never been in the attic anyway-- so maybe they DID keep wax dummies up there, you never know, right?-- and the strobe light making it difficult to detect movement. |
| Ahh! OMG I almost peed my pants that was so scary!!: | Don't patronize me. |
| Ever been on a haunted hay ride?: | Oh yes. |
| Was it spooky?: | No, but it was fun enough. |
| Did somebody get pulled off the ride, cuz I saw that happen once: | I don't think so. |
| If yes, was it you?: | No. |
| HOLY AMOEBA!!! PUMPKINS!!!! | |
| Do you carve pumpkins?: | I did most years I was living with my family, and my freshman year of college. I haven't since-- though part of me wants to carve a lame little Japanese kabocha and stick him on my doorstep :-P |
| Do you do it the old-fashioned way, or with patterns?: | Wait, there are patterns? Hahaha WE were always hardcore, thank you. |
| Where do you get pumpkins?: | I think a couple years (like preschool) I had class field trips to pumpkin patches. Most years, just the supermarket or something. We also got painted pumpkins from Tri-Kappa, the women's philanthropic organization my mom was part of. |
| Do you gut em yourself or are you a wimp?: | Gut 'em myself. Yeah. (Or make Tory do it because I'm not good at it :-P). |
| Do you eat the seeds?: | I think we tried to bake them once, and they didn't turn out all that great. |
| Interesting. Ever carved a gourd?: | No, but we displayed them. |
| Did you ever notice that some gourds have noses?: | Yes. |
| Ever pick a gourd at the pumpkin farm? I have.: | No, but good for you. |
| Have you ever carved a pumpkin that wasn't orange yet?: | Nope. |
| Ever stepped on a pumpkin and broke it?: | I don't think so. |
