(no subject)
If you were born before 1990, then this survey should be easy for you to fill out! If you weren't... don't even bother, you'll just be confused!
+ What spice girl were you when you were young?
In my group of friends, I was the one who was supposed to be Posh Spice. Yeah, we had rules for this kind of thing, and I was the only one who had a Little Black Dress.
+ Backstreet Boys or NSync?
I guess it would have to be Backstreet Boys. I actively hated both, but I was younger when the Backstreet Boys were popular, so I had friends who actually liked them.
+ Did you watch S Club 7?
No. Ugh. (Martinemonster, it was called S Club 7 in Norway too)
+ What was your favorite, Sandlot or Little Rascals?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
+ Did you ever have light up sneakers?
Yes. Although they didn't go that well with my Little Black Dress.
+ Cinderella or Snow White?
Definitely Cinderella. I don't think it's only because I saw that Disney movie at an earlier age. "The Cinderella story" is very appealing, which is why there are so many variations on it in other stories I've liked (Ella Enchanted, Fortune's Wheel). Cinderella goes through a lot, including costume changes that made acting out the story so much better. All Snow White does is ignore "stranger danger" and get accidentally rescued by a prince who has a rather disturbing interest in her despite the fact that she's dead.
+ Did you wake up really early just to watch cartoons on Saturday morning?
Absolutely not. I've never liked cartoons, and I've never liked getting up early just to do nothing.
+ What was your favorite holiday?
Christmas. Of course. Although I also really loved Halloween.
+ Did you ever try to stay up on Christmas just so you could see Santa?
In Norway, you get to meet Santa. Although I do remember trying to look out the window as Santa was leaving, to see what mode of transportation Norwegian Santa used (I didn't believe in flying reindeer, but I didn't expect him to walk everywhere either). The adults physically stopped me from doing this (guess they didn't want me to see him go back into the house to change back into being my uncle)
+ Did you ever watch Bill Nye the Science Guy?
Yes, quite often actually.
+ What grade did you like the best?
Third grade. That's the year we had a rabbit in the classroom! We also had a chameleon, life-size papier maché whales hanging from the ceiling, tadpoles that eventually became frogs, caterpillars that eventually became butterflies, a rainforest stick which we turned over and listened to every morning, computer games in class for the first time and standardized tests (I liked them because we always got muffins when we did them, to make sure everyone had breakfast on test day). Third grade was the year we read biographies - everyone read about Martin Luther King Jr. and everyone chose one other person to read about - and give an oral report on, with costumes. I was Marie Curie, so I got to wear turn-of-the-century clothes and a French braid. Not only was this the greatest look ever in my opinion at that time, it got me out of hockey in gym class.
Fourth grade was pretty fantastic too, because that's the year I was Harriet Tubman in the school play, and started doing more serious history in class. This included making tools that stone age people would need, using only tools and materials that they would have had access to (like no scissors for example) and taking a memorable field trip to Plimouth, which is so historically accurate it can be scary.
Wow, I really miss those years.
+ Ninja Turtles or Power Rangers?
Ugh. Neither. Anyway, I wasn't allowed to watch either show.
+ What Power Ranger were you?
None...never liked them
+ Did you ever own a Chinese jump rope?
I don't think so... what was that again? (quick Wikipedia search) No.
+ What was your favorite thing to eat?
As now, grilled swordfish. And Ben&Jerry's ice cream.
+ What was your favorite color(s)?
First yellow (kindergarten), then purple (first grade), then blue (second grade and so on)
+ Barney or sesame street?
Sesame Street!
+ Did you prefer, Where in the World is Carmen San Diego or Where's Waldo?
Carmen San Diego. But I wasn't very into either one.
+ What was your first pets name?
The first one died right away. We inherited it from the people who moved out of the apartment we moved into, and it was very old. Then we got Rainbow.
+ Who were your best friends in kindergarten?
Taryn
+ Are you still friends with the person you were best friends with in the third grade?
We don't see each other often (try once every three years or so) but our families in general are in touch.
+ Where did you live when you were 9?
Arlington, Massachusetts
+ What did you want to be when you grew up?
an actress and/or an author
+ Do you know all of the words to the Fresh Prince theme song?
I think I did a few years ago...
+ What was your all time favorite movie?
Either it is my all time favorite, or it was my current favorite. Either way, I don't/didn't have one.
+ Which did you like 'Are You Afraid Of The Dark' or 'AHH! Real Monsters?
Uhh... What? Are You Afraid of the Dark is the only one I've heard of. I saw that when I was too young to see it, and again when I had grown out of it, so I was never a fan.
+ Did you watch Rocko’s Modern Life?
Nope.
+ Who was your favorite character in Doug?
I don't think I saw that.
+ Did you like War heads?
What? Guess I've missed out on a lot.
+ Did you ever want to watch slime time live?
Uh... I didn't really watch much tv, as I think is becoming obvious.
+ Have you ever wondered what the "slime" was actually made of?
Well, now I've kind of curious actually.
+ What spice girl were you when you were young?
In my group of friends, I was the one who was supposed to be Posh Spice. Yeah, we had rules for this kind of thing, and I was the only one who had a Little Black Dress.
