16. In what sense are you a minority?
At this moment? In a racial sense (weird for a white girl to say that!). Also in a first-language sense and a nation-of-citizenship sense. Normally? I'm a minority because of my education and possession of a tattoo.

Japan (I do technically live here, thank you Alien Registration Card). I can't remember the name of the guy who replaced Abe.

A paycheck
28. Where did your last hug take place?
Possibly outside the 711 after the Tsurumai Park party saying night to Tim
29. Do people ever make stupid mistakes when spelling or saying your name?
Last name, hell yes. It's not spelled "nielson," people, it's spelled "nielsen," as in nielsen ratings, leslie nielsen, and I'm Danish, not Swedish
30. Have you ever started a sentence with "No offense, but..."?
Probably not, it's a surefire way to point out that you're saying something incredibly offensive. The last time someone started a sentence "No offense, but..." when speaking to me, it was with the deliberate intention of making me feel godawful. So I try to avoid it myself.
