An Interview from empress_miyu
1.Do you write in a journal, real life one, not LJ?
I do. When I'm extremely upset or need to talk myself out of feeling a certain way, I'll grab one of my (many, many) journals and just write, write, write. It's a calming experience, and it really helps. I've kept paper journals since I was 12... it's funny to read what I wrote all those years ( Read more... )

2. The best part about being me would have to be my killer big toe. For reals.
3. The ultimate job for me would have to be a Mystery Guest person. As a mystery guest, you get to stay in hotels and rate the service and it would all be paid for. HECK YA.
4. The one thing I wanted to do, but didn't was the Temple stay. How cool would it be to wear a toga robe thing, and shave off my head and do prayer/meditation in the morning, sand shaping in the afternoon, and learning Kung Fu at night. Okay, so the Kung Fu thing isn't included, but a girl can dream, can't she?
5. One hobby I'd like to take up if I had more time (and money!) would be scuba diving.

Oh tons or regrets: Michelle Villeneaux. When I was in university a beautiful woman named Michelle was flirting with me and I was too stupid to notice it.
I regret every lie I told someone close to me, and that is the truth.
I regret Carrie Chapman. She was my gymnastics coach and I think there was a chance to date her and she was amazing. Again too stupid to have seen the signs.
I regret going to a strip club in first year. Since then I have spent money in those places and by my way of thinking every dollar spent there is one dollar too many.
I think that is enough insight into me for now.
2. Who has been the most influencial person in your life?
Tough to narrow it down to one person.
Father, shows me at times who I do and do NOT want to be.
Marilyn Temple, 7th grade teacher.
Greg Steffler, 6th grade teacher.
There would be something amiss if I didn't mention Jesus Christ but since I haven't met him in the flesh I am not sure if he counts for this question.
3. What are 3 words starting with "O" that describe you?
Organized. Yeah right! Not in a million years!
1. Obese. Yes I said it, I am fat. I am not terribly fat but as long as I make excuses for it or down-play it then I won't continue to take the steps to correct it.
2. Obtuse. Socially dim-witted and dull. I do not read situations or people well and that has cost me big time.
Wow number 3 is a tough one. I would say "organic" but I can't as I have a pin in my knee so I am not 100% nature made anymore.
3. Okay. All things being equal I am okay. I have my health, a good job, money, a roof over my head and the ability to do anything I like within the laws of the country.
4. Did you ever get the pictures from Shindoshi and when will I get to see them?
Yes, I did get them and you will get them this weekend.
5. Are you content?
No. I am not. That is a hard question to answer because it forces me to challenge myself. I have to take a good hard look at myself. I am not content with my relationship. I am not content with my body. I am not content with the way I teach or how effective I am being in the classroom. I am not content with the number of broken promises I have perprutrated that are exclusively my fault. I am not content with the state of my apartment, it is a mess and I do not like it.
I guess the cold and hard answer is "no, I am not content."
Good questions Ro.
Tomorrow I am going to copy the questions from your journal and post them on mine. I think they will be very enlightening too.
Thanks for being my friend Ro.
