I stole this survey from Maddie. I like surveys and was pleasantly surprised to see a survey on livejournal. But after all, this is a personal journal right, you can do whatever you want. Surveys are cheesey, sure, and I probably have done wayyyy to many of them on myspace, but I feel like they give a quick glimpse into a person's life. And so, here's mine:
current book:
My "read at home" book is "Eat, Pray Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert, but I have since brought it on the trolley since my I left my normal trolley book, "Fact and Fiction" by Bertrand Russel, at Leslie and KCaitlins' house. I'm almost done with Fact and Fiction and will be needing a new home book, as I like the way Eat Pray Love travels.
current music:
Kurt Vile. He's a local Philly artist whose music eclectic, strange and dream-like. I feel like it's weirdness captures my own weirdness in song-form. It's mellow and folksy and experimental... like me!
current shame-inducing guilty pleasure:
shopping. I shouldn't... I think about it all the time. I want to buy everything in H&M and I want to absolutely go nuts in the Gallery. It's really strange, but I get a awesome sense of calm when I'm shopping. I'll do it with people but I almost rather be alone, that way I can take forever and a day.
current colours:
I've changed from black and a floral-print shirt to a grey sweater and indigo jeans. Post-work gear. But today, I feel like the color olive green.
current triumph(s):
having my dreams be recognized and come to fruition by my awesome sense of perserverence and hope. Also, by living and breathing and making emotional strides past what since last year will mark a chaotic time in my life.
current procrastination tool:
livejournal. I'm suppose to be meeting someone to buy sparkling wine, but I cannot resist.
current drink:
a yogurt shake. Girl's gotta keep fit!
current movie:
I started watching "The Dentist". It's a horror movie from 1996. It's about a dentist who is anal retentive and caught his wife cheating on him with the pool guy so he goes on a tortuous rampage on his patients, starting with a 7 year old boy. It was cheesey so I turned it off.
current celebrity crush:
Jake Gyllenhal, always and forever. He can be as brokeback as he wants... I'll just join in.
current link:
www.feministing.com Awesome feminist bloggers who keep me up to date on the feminist news, and give me a laugh.
current indulgence:
toasted bonnel bread (it's italian) with butter. Oh goddess... it brings me back to childhood.
current slang or saying:
I don't really have a slang or saying. I try to vary my responses and conversations.
current outfit:
a grey sweater (to brave the cold with), jeans and sneakers. Trolley clothes.
current excitement:
going over the girls' for the ANTM finale, and fall '09! Also, being an aunt again, and christmas and all the other upcoming holidays. Also, also, free Pietros on Friday!
current endorsement:
This Kefir naturally cultured peach smoothie is pretty good and filling. I feel good drinking it!
