Tonight, I am Bored
The "Grown Up" Survey
Tired of all of those surveys made up by high school kids? 'Have you ever kissed someone?' 'Missed someone?' 'Told someone you loved them?' 'Drank alcohol?' Here are 50 questions for the people who are a little more "mature"...
1. What bill do you hate paying the most?
Well, it’s not really a bill, but I'm not a fan of paying those stupid tolls whenever I go to Chicago
2. Where was the last place you had a romantic dinner?
hm...probably the Puskás on Várkerület...yes, it’s been that long
3. Do you regret losing your virginity to who you lost it to?
N/A ( I realized, after posting, that a simple "no" gave the wrong impression...)
4. If you could go back and change one thing what would it be?
Trying to be someone I’m not
5. Name of your first grade teacher?
Mrs. Foreman
6. What do you really want to be doing right now?
Studying...the sad thing is I’m kind of not kidding about that
7. What did you want to be when you were growing up?
A professional ice skater, unfortunately I wasn’t coordinated enough...then all of those pesky broken bones turned me off of professional sports on ice
9. Why did you choose the shirt that you have on?
It looks cute with my pants
10. Gas Prices?
Not my problem anymore
11. If you could move anywhere and take someone with you where would you move to?
Croatia, but I’m not telling who I’d take with me
12. First thought when the alarm went off this morning?
“Damn, I still have to drive to Milwaukee”
13. Last thought before going to sleep last night?
“Damn, I still have to drive to Milwaukee”
16.What errand/chore do you despise?
Sweeping
17. If you didn't have to work, would you volunteer?
You can do both
18. Get up early or sleep in?
I like to get up early...but not too early
19. Who is your favorite cartoon character?
I like Aquateen, and that one Powerpuff Girls episode that spoofed The Big Lebowski
20. Favorite thing to do at night?
Relax
21: Have you found real love yet?
Not yet, but I’m not too worried
22. When did you first start feeling old?

Turkey
25. What do you get every time you go into Sam's Club?

38. Worst relationship mistake that you wish you could take back?
Trying to be something I wasn’t
39. Do you like the person who sits directly across from you at work?
I have my own office, so Not Applicable, but Alicia sits outside my door (in her cube, not, you know, "sits outside my door in a stalkerish fashion") and she's pretty nice
