Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness

RULES:

Rule #1 always post the rules.

Rule #2 answer the questions the other person asked, then write 11 new ones.

Rule #3 tag 11 people and then link them in the post.

I was asked:

1. Do you regret anything you’ve done?

Not really no…I wish I did better in college but I also realize that college is hard, my major was definitely on the harder side of majors. I think my interest level (as well as my hatred for my major) increased when I actually began taking classes in my major, rather than just pre-reqs. 

2. What makes you cry?

Not a lot to be completely honest, I’m one of those people who doesn’t cry at wakes or funerals and have been said to have no heart (not at the wake/funeral but just in general), which I mean is technically okay with me now because they said the same, or inferred, the same about Regina so I’m okay with that. I do/can cry when I’m pissed or someone has done something to make me angry or upset, stupid stuff like when I’m trying to win an argument with my parents and I start crying…pisses me off. 

3. What makes you smile?

Kids, Regina, fic updates, regal believer (no joke there), good news, travelling, being busy/stressed and having a good product to show for it, good grades (LOVE THOSE!), ohhh…and my candidates winning in elections (THE BEST FEELING EVER!)

4. Tell me something that you learned from your favorite book?

I read a book called Hero in the 8th grade and it has stayed with me since then, I think it was the first book that taught me how family doesn’t mean blood. How everybody is going through hell and they need someone, they need someone who cares to stick around, be tough, and give them guidance.

5. What do you listen to when you’re sad?

I love country music so anything with a slower melody in that genre, normally though I turn to T.V. whether it’s something funny or something more serious just getting my mind off of it usually works. It also depends what type of sad, if it’s me doing poorly on an assignment then I watch something or read a fic or something and then I work again. If it’s something where I can sit and do nothing except watch T.V. all day then guess what I’m doing? Watching T.V./Netflix.

6. What was your last dream about [if you don’t mind sharing]?

I actually had a dream about law school last night I think, and I didn’t wake up crying so it must have been somewhat positive and I think I remember wanting to stay in the dream.

7. Tell me one habit?

I love using my turn-signal and I use it for everything. Out at school I would swim practically everyday that I was there and would eat the same thing every single day.

8. Beach or mountains?

Mountains probably because I love scenery, especially if I’m alone and can just kind of lose myself in my daydreams. However I love to swim (equivalent to a fish), and I actually just brought these nice goggles and snorkel (they weren’t expensive but they’re better quality then any I’ve ever used) so I can go snorkeling in the ocean in Greece.

9. What was the best/worst part of your day today?

Best: Work (I get to play with kids), driving around, being home alone

Worst: Having to go to the library/deal with the librarians I haven’t had very good experiences with librarians and now I get to go back…

10. What’s your favorite place?

Anywhere that I feel at home, or if I’m travelling then I just love being in the moment there.

11. Tell me something I should know about you.

I have an accent (speech disorder) that makes me sound like I’m from the east coast even though I’ve never lived there (although I am going to Syracuse next year).

Your questions:

1. Best moment of your life?

2. Worst moment of you’re life (if you’re okay with sharing that)?

3. Craziest thing you’ve ever done?

4. Who do you look up to?

2. Worst moment of you’re life (if you’re okay with sharing that)?

3. Craziest thing you’ve ever done?

- The craziest thing I think I’ve ever done was make out with an almost stranger on the beach in Florida during spring break one year in college.

I am disappointed that Americans are on the street right now burning down others property, to prove how angry they are. 

I am disappointed that Americans won’t parent their children, and teach them to respect authority. 

I am disappointed that their are enough bad law enforcement officers out their the image of a police officer is one of bad not of good, in a lot of people’s eyes. 

I am disappointed that the media interviewed people that gave false statement, without fact checking, and continued to twist things, like always, to get better ratings. 

I am disappointed that as a nation we believe that if we see it on tv it is true.

I am disappointed that if indeed the evidence put forward to the Grand Jury was 100% accurate, people will always blame law enforcement regardless of whether their life was at stake. 

I am disappointed that today’s youth sees law enforcement officers as the bad guys, when they in fact are only doing their job. Stop committing senseless crimes.

However, I guess my choice of words is lacking. I’m 25, and not a mother. :) I was referring to myself as a twelve-year-old girl because of a “guy problem” I’m having at the moment. I’m just in a place where I’m feeling more like a silly teenage girl rather than the strong, independent woman I actually am.
