Interview #5
Hey Alisa!!! It's been a hell-ish week and a half, and with no end in sight, but I've got the interview for you and 20 minutes before my deadline expired!!!! (oops... i missed mine!! and i totally understand.)
In who's company do you feel most at ease?
that's easy! Alias Best Friend. She and I are so alike about nearly everything, that it's hard to not feel completely at ease with her. She's fantastic.
Where do you think you'll be in your life 10 years from now?
umm... i would know if i stopped concentrating on what i plan on doing the next day...
seriously though, i dont know. i'm pretty much one of those... people who plans, but takes life each day/week. probably not a great habit to be in.
Has there been a person who has really helped you along in your life?
Many people support me in my life, but the true rock in my life is my mom. She keeps me grounded, and level headed and she tries to stimulate elements in my life that she thinks will help me in the future (whether the future is tomorrow or five years from now). She is always an influence of self growth. She also tries to help me form my opinions of things keeping me open minded yet realistic.
Now, i said that she has helped, but i'll admit that i'm not exactly the most cooperative person to help stimulate change. so, i feel bad for her sometimes because i can be a real bitch about things, and i'll fight until i just cant anymore... only to find out it wasn't so bad to being with. I cant help it if i'm afraid of change. it's my one true fear... well... you know what i mean.
What is the worst trait a human can posess, in your highly appreciated opinion?
awwwwwwwww thank you! i think people are way to selfish and ignorant. I cant stand ignorance. it's like the one thing that'll piss me off. I just hate when people are to absorbed in themselves or their lifestyle or any other influence like that, and are just blatantly rude to other people. I hate rudeness i hate it i hate it i hate it. as we can tell from my last blog, mean and rude people just make me so depressed. I'm a pretty emotional person, but nothing makes me more depressed than people who are just completely and utterly rude (i have to think of a new word other than rude) to someone else for reasons that are absolutely ridiculous. When i was working for Marriott Reservations... my job was to reserve a room for the people who called. I'd hear some of the rudest most narcissistic people ever. I just hate that people take other people for granted, and i hate when they criticize others when there was no need for criticism... like... i'll never be an actress because there is wayyy too much criticism over weight and appearance... granted i understand the appearance part (i mean, part of an actresses job is to look the part...) but i cant stand directors or producers or any of those backstage people tell actors or actresses that they are so fat when they are completely healthy! it drives them into eating disorders... especially the really really rude remarks they make. I heard one time that on the Titanic set they (*coughJamesCameroncough*) called Kate Winslet a really offensive name referencing her weight to a boat. and i was just madder than hell about that.
so, to sum up this rant... rudeness.
And (not to go all James Lipton on you, but...) what is your favorite smell?
I love this question so much for real, because i have the worst sense of smell on the planet. I really do. I dont know why, but i just cant smell things as well as other people. So, whenever i do end up smelling things, it's so delightful (except for nasty smelling stuff because... eww). It really came in handy in my favorite class i ever took which was Zoo/Phys (which was a combo class Zoology and Physiology)... when we had to dissect animals. I remember everyone else complaining about the smell but it wasn't potent enough for me to smell it, so it never bothered me... except i believe it was when we dissected a small shark... i did end up catching some wiffs of that and it wasn't really pleasant... i dont want to say nasty but it did make me feel like retching a little.
ANYWAY! favorite smell... hmmm... that my friends, would be chlorine. i LOVE the smell of chlorine. i think it's because everytime i smell it gives me that nostalgic feeling of swimming. i LOVE swimming. i LOVE swimming so much more than people realize, but i rarely ever get to. it's sad. My second favorite spot in all of my high school was this one stairwell that went from the first floor to the second floor, but it was right next to the pool, and there was a door that lead to the seats up above the pool... anyway that stairwell filled up with the smell of chlorine all the time, so i took that route whenever i possibly could. speaking of smell being connected to nostalgia... this is something i greatly miss out on due to my lowered tolerance of smell. Only a slight few smells actually trigger any form of nostalgia for me... 1. chlorine... 2. sometimes the smell of onions trigger back to whenever my mom makes spaghetti and the cut onion smell just fills the whole house. aaaaaaaand there are others but i cant think of them right now.
Mwah!!!!!

PEOPLE WE KNEW BUT OFFICIALLY MET IN THIS ENTRY:
Mom: Mom is my rock. my true best friend. If there was anyone on earth who truely knows me it's mom. We joke all the time that i inherited her personality, because we rarely differ in likes and dislikes, and when we do, it's mostly generation gap type stuff. I like alternative rock music, where she likes soft rock. We rarely disagree about stuff. We both are anti-social but have fantastic social skills. We watch the same things. We like the same types of art. We like photography, scenery, and music. We like the same cities, and we like foreign cultures. We like everything. But what is true about similar personalities getting along, is that when they differ, it's like fire & lightning. When we argue, we argue hard. We get to tears, and we scream, and shout, and hyperventilate. We argue about things all mothers and daughters fight about... how messy my room is, how i like to stay out late, that i should brush my teeth more, that i should clean my nails. Mother/Daughter stuff. But we're both stubborn, and we're both headstrong. We love each other so much.
