You all know I wouldn't use a survey as a real entry--there's one before this, of course.
The Basics
1. Name: Melissa
2. Birthday: 4/23/87--one month and two days till my Sweet 16 :)
3. Piercings: 2 in each ear
4. Tattoos: Nope.
5. Height: Technically, 4'11'' and 3/4. But it's not like I walk around barefoot all the time, so I'd up that to at least 5'.
6. Shoe size: 6-7, depending on the shoe. I'm a 6 more often than not.
7. Hair color: dark brown, black, call it what you will
8. Hair Length: a couple inches past shoulder length. Yech. It wants cutting.
9. Pets: An American cocker spaniel named Hickory. And some fish.
10. In the morning I am: Perkier than most.
11. All I need: is a rhythm divine. OR love. (love, love, love)
12. Love is: Yikes. How many times have I answered this question in a survey? Well, let's see, in the most clich� terms possible, it's caring for someone so much that you'd basically give up anything to ensure that they're okay.
13. If I could see one person right now: Hm. Err. I can't decide. I must be a worthless reject.
14. I'm afraid of: lots and lots and lots of things--particularly airborne insects and sharp pointy objects.
15. I dream about: really really strange and bizarre occurrences. I never talk about them in my diary, but there have been a couple choice ones--like the time I dreamt I was an icicle. Yeeeah.
Last...
1. Movie you rented: Well, I didn't rent it physically, but the last rented movie I saw was Final Destination.
2. Movie you bought: My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
3. Song you listened to: "Flashdance," Irene Cara. Who's an 80's child? Aw yeah.
4. Song you had stuck in your head: "Scenes From An Italian Restaurant," Billy Joel--the part where it gets all uptempo: "Things are okay with me these days/got a good job/got a new office/got a new wife/got a new life and the family is fine." Well, that sure did a lot to get that song out of my head.
5. Song you've downloaded: "Virtual Insanity," the acapella version of course.
6. Person you've called: I called Lindsay today using a super cool method where you use Morse code instead of dialing. My dad told me about it and I didn't believe him until I did it.
7. Person that called you: My mom? Some telemarketer?
8. TV shows you've watched: I just saw American Idol: The Best of the Worst. SO comical.
9. Person you were thinking of: Myself. Wow I'm self-centered.
Do...
1. You have a B/F or G/F? nopety nope.
2. You have a crush on someone? Uhhh yeah. Where have you been?
3. You wish you could live somewhere else? Not really. I'd like to visit a couple places, sure, but right now I still want to be able to come home to this house, in this neighborhood.
4. You think about suicide? Actually attempting it, no. But I have often wondered what motivates people to do that. How can you really believe that there's just not hope left for you? I'm really curious, I'm not degrading anyone. Just wondering.
5. You believe in online dating? Whatever works for you, I guess.
6. Others find you attractive? I wouldn't really know, as I don't walk up to people and ask them "Do you find me attractive??"
7. You want more piercings? I have always wanted a cartilage piercing but I heard it hurts like a bitch and I don't know if it's worth it anyway.
8. You want more tattoos? I don't have any tattoos to begin with, and I don't intend to get one, not right now anyway. I don't really fancy the idea of ink in my muscle tissue.
9. You drink? Aaaand no. Sounds stupid, but I don't really like the smell of liquor so I don't really have the desire to put it in my mouth and swallow it.
10. You do drugs? Nope.
11. Do you like cleaning? Kind of ::cringes:: Everyone done laughing and pointing?? I like order, ok??
12. You write in cursive or print? Print. I type. Hee hee. I print most of the time, my cursive is Godawful.
13. You carry a donor card? No. If I had the opportunity I would, though.
For or against...
1. Long distance relationships: I'd hope so. I guess if both people are faithful it would work.
2. Using someone: What kind of a question is that?? Who's going to say "oh yeah, I'm totally for that." No, dammit, I don't believe in using people.
3. Suicide: I personally don't see myself bringing myself to suicide. I don't see how it could ever get so bad that I would just need to end it all. But maybe I've just lived a really content life up till now--I'm glad that I've been so lucky.
4. Killing people: Once again, who would answer (seriously), "Oh yeeeeah, killing people, that's the BEST EVER."
5. Teenage smoking: I'm not into it. At all. I don't think smoking is good for anyone, not just teens. And I'm not saying, "Don't do this, because it's bad." I'm saying, "Okay, well I sure as hell am not gonna do it, but if you want to, I'm assuming you're intelligent enough to know the consequences. Sorry dude."
6. Doing drugs: Against. Simply a waste of time, money, and energy. And, er, your life? I don't know, since being exposed to more as I've gotten older, I am starting to become more liberal in my opinions. I guess what I'm trying to say is, if you can manage to make it casual and NOT let the drugs take over your life, I guess you can do that if you want? But that almost never happens, so I still am against. Thank you come again.
7. Premarital sex: With the right person, yes. Orgies and gangbangs? No.
8. Driving drunk: Ugggh. "OMG YEAH! Driving drunk is like the best ever!" Who does that??
9. Gay/lesbian relationships: Absolutely for. Everyone in this world deserves a right to be happy. If that's what works for you, more power to you.
