friend quiz answers
Question #1: In high school I did *not* work at a craft store.
I worked at One Hour Motophoto and Portrait Studio junior and most of senior year.
I worked at Noodle Kidoodle (now bought out and dead) for 6+ months right before college.
Question #2: Mr. Peterson (my black cat) is named after the cat in my favorite comic strip.
In Jim's Journal, a strip by Scott Dikkers(sp?), Jim's roommate gets a black cat, names it Mr. Peterson, takes him to the vet to get neutered, and finds out the cat's a girl! I was told my Mr. Peterson was a boy, but I thought she was a girl, so the name ended up so perfect!
Question #3: My favorite ice cream is favorite? As if I'm that picky!
I do, however, like everything else I multiple choiced on there: anything Ben & Jerry's, chocolate, and in shake/malt form.
Question #4: I only know how to knit legwarmers.
There was a super easy pattern in a Bust magazine in 2002. You knit on circular needles and just go around and around.
The only hat I made was really a legwarmer that I just wore on my head.
I can't get the hang of switching from knitting to perling.
Question #5: My high school boyfriend was a golfer so I went to his tournaments with his mom because I was that in love.
I never learned to golf because I didn't care to, though we did go to a driving range once.
I don't love anyone enough to lug around golf clubs for hours in the hot sun.
Question #6: My favorite font is georgia.
I doubt anyone will get this right, sorry kids.
Question #7:My least favorite sport to play is soccer.
I played badminton junior year on the high school team.
I played waterpolo on the high school team freshman year. I wasn't on swim team and I *sucked*.
I'm indifferent to four square.
Mom signed me up for soccer in 3rd grade. They put me on a boys team by accident and told me to play with them until they got it figured out. The boys nailed me in the head and hit me so hard they knocked the wind out of me. I haven't played since because I hate it. I do, however, have great respect for those who play because it's hard.
Question #8: In junior high I was a cheerleader.
It was a lame program where there were no tryouts but I had fun and did it anyway. No one from my jr high ended up on the high school squad.
I never came close to entering a science fair.
Didn't get felt up until freshman year of hs.
Some girls had a thing for a gym teacher, but I thought he was gross.
Question #9: I use a lot of facial tissue. The best kind is Plain Puffs (no moisturizer).
I'll take whatever's handy if I've got no Puffs.
Kleenex brand just isn't strong enough.
Puffs Plus (with moisturizer!) makes my nose feel greasy and gives me blackheads.
Question #10: My favorite year of college was freshman year.
Kind of sad that college started great and went downhill. I was so meant to be 2-3 years older than I am.
Question #11: In high school I stopped watching tv because I was hooked on a nightly talk radio show.
Sophomore year of high school I sat glued to the radio from 7pm-11pm listing to Wendy and Bill on the Loop. I thought they were hilarious. My mom even got them to call me on my 16th birthday. She told my friends and they all listened in. I used to tape the show and almost got the segment on tape, except that when the phone rang I hit stop instead of turning off the volume.
Question #12: The first time I went all the way with a boy I was 22.
In general I was in no hurry to have sex, though I made out plenty. Sadly I always feared being raped, so I figured everyone knowing I didn't have sex would probably help get a guy nailed if he tried. I dated Bryan freshman year and I was not ready to do it. I wanted to have sex with Jamey, who I made out with in NYC while we were staying at his place, but didn't realize I wanted to until I was back in Iowa. The next person I dated was Amber, and though we had sex the question was phrased to exclude that (the sex was not good and I don't like to think about it).
After graduation I dated boys from the internet. They all lived in the City so I'd usually try to arrange spending the night with a friend. During our first date I decided to spend the night at his place. In the morning he had to go to work but said that I could stay and wait til he got home if I wanted. I didn't have a job so I had nothing better to do. That night we had sex. He was hot, I figured I'd enjoy it (i did), and was ready to do it. So the first time I had sex with a boy, I slept with him on the second night of our first date!
