My first post ever - 20 questions meme
So, I said earlier in the week that my first LJ post ever would be a 20 questions meme... and while I also promised I would post it as soon as I got back, other ... things ... have happened since then that have made me not want to be on the computer much. Blech to the news.
Anyway, onto thinking about other things!
I am not tagging anyone, because I don't have friends to tag, and I'm just lazy.
The Rules:
1. People who have been tagged must write the answers on their blog and replace any question they dislike with a new, original question.
2. Tag six people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.
01. Make a list of 5 things you can see without getting up.
My cell phone
Dirty dishes that need to be washed (oops)
My huge stack of recyclables to take out tonight or tomorrow
"Discrete and Combinatorial Mathematics: An Applied Introduction, 5th Edition", by Grimalidi and Ramana
My magazine and crossword pile that I need to go through
02. How do you style your hair?
Generally, throw it into a bun and shove hairsticks in it. Sometimes I braid it; I rarely leave it hanging loose because I'll sit on it or shut it in the car door (which hurts)
03. What are wearing now?
A old choir tshirt and pajama pants.
04. What's your occupation?
Perpetual student aka unemployed.
05. What do you hear right now?
My computer fans going. They are kind of loud, but they keep my computer cold, so I'm happy.
06. What's your favorite guilty pleasure treat?
Cookies and cream milkshakes. Or cookies and cream ice cream. Or the triple chocolate gelato my store has stopped selling (cries)
07. Are you hungry?
Not really. I'm more thirsty
08. Write the first word that comes to mind.
Hate (thinking of a certain someone)
09. Dog person or cat person?
Both, but I tend towards dogs. I've always had them growing up, and since I put my fur-baby down a couple of years ago, this is the longest I've gone without one. I'm not ready yet.
10. What song is currently stuck in your head?
Disease by Matchbox Twenty mixed with Break Me, Shake Me by Savage Garden. Don't ask.
11. What was the last thing you bought?
A waxing kit and a book online. In a store it was .... a purse and wallet because my old one was torn up.
12. If you could afford to go anywhere in the world, where would you go?
New Zealand, or Scotland, or Germany, or Russia, or Hawaii (this June, yes!) or to see Chernobyl, or Japan with my cousin, or ...... uh I just want to travel.
13. Where do you see yourself in 5 minutes?
Trying to stop myself from crying by watching bad TV.
14. Last book you read?
Ghouls Just Haunt To Have Fun by Victoria Laurie and Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson (which I *highly* recommend)
15. What are you doing this weekend?
Trying to get the house organized and clean, which I'll stop part way through, hating myself and going on a crying spree. It's typical.
16. If you could play any musical instrument, which one would you play?
I'd play the violin and piano again. I screwed myself a long time ago and gave myself nerve damage in my arm, so I can't play anymore. If it has to be a new instrument, then the cello or flute.
17. How are you?
Depressed and angry, but trying not become worse. I'm trying to distract myself before I fall into my old coping mechanisms.
18. What are you doing tomorrow?
See question 15.
19. What are you looking forward to the most?
My trip to Hawaii in June with my best friend and my mom. It's to celebrate her getting her PhD.
20. Are you reading this right now?
The hell? I would hope so if I'm responding to the question.
