7. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees?

Bears don’t scare me nearly as much as bees do. I’ve only ever been stung once. Plus, I feel like I could shriek at a bear or make enough loud noise with my mouth to get it to leave me alone (or we have a bear horn at my house) whereas there’s nothing I know of that gets a pissed-off swarm of bees to leave you alone.

24. What do you dip a chicken nugget in?

More often than not, if I’m eating chicken in nugget form, then I’m driving in the car somewhere, and no dipping is occurring (this is the only form of food I can eat while still safely driving — therefore it is reserved for car trips, usually to and from The Cities). Otherwise, chicken strips get dipped in pretty much anything — ketchup and barbeque sauce most often, but my school also has sweet and sour sauce that’s really really good.

42. Which are better — Legos or Lincoln Logs?

I still have an enormous tub of Legos in my home somewhere (and a big tub of Duplos for that matter). I never played with Lincoln Logs (maybe once at a friend’s house, but I couldn’t figure out what they were supposed to do?), so that’s right out. Plus, the smell of Legos is the single most nostalgic scent I have in my scent memory. Obvious winner, Legos.

I started doing this several days ago, but I felt bad at it for some reason, so I will try again now!

rhymesfordimes: You are just 100% incredible and the wonderful optimist that I need in my life to counter my obnoxious cynicism. You are also incredibly patient (especially when it comes to me hahhh), and I admire that very much. You’re a fantastic writer and an inspiration to me; I wish very much that I could write poetry like you. You’re also a wonderful photographer and I’m excited for you to do more things c:

its-a-pack-thing-babe: You are also 100% incredible and one of my best friends in the whole wide world. I hope there will be a time soon where we don’t live halfway across the country from each other because you are a very bright light in my life. You are also, from what I’ve seen, a very talented actress and photographer and musician and ugh I’m so jealous of all of this! ;A; I’m also excited to see more of your work c:

fenrisfens: And you are ALSO 100% incredible and one of my best friends in the whole wide world. You’re always a joy to be around and always so happy and ugh I miss you come back. :c You’re also crafty and I am jealous and I think you should totes open up an etsy shop and sell your beautiful things to the world. You have an optimism that rivals Sarah’s and I wish that I had more of that quality.

fractalbright: Aaaaaand you! Are ALSO 100% incredible! I love seeing you on my dash and I love talking to you. Your tags (especially your otp tags) always make me laugh, even when I feel my worst. You are very sweet and very pretty, and thank you for being a light on my dash and I’m very glad that we are mutuals c: 

alyxvanced: Aaah hi, I really miss you, and, like everyone else I’ve mentioned, you are 100% incredible. You are a fantastic writer and still an inspiration to me, and I hope that I will one day see your work published c: I know we don’t talk often anymore, but I still think about you often and hope you are doing well c:

andtheheir I could say a million nice things probably because I am a loser but I'll keep it short. You are the hardest working person I know, you're a talented writer and designer and someday I hope I can find a way to be more like you because you're an inspiration tbh <3

its-a-pack-thing-babe I'll miss you terribly <3 (you'll probably already be far away by the time you read this). You are another inspiration of mine and you're incredibly talented as well; you persevere through every bad thought, all the crap that tries to weigh you down. We always have fun when we chat and play and I'll miss that very much while you're away.

fenrisfens I miss you tooooo ugh faraway friends. I love you and hanging out with you is always fun and I can't wait to see you again. You're one of my favorite people and I always feel like we can talk about p much anything and it's great c: 

silversunshower <3 I love talking to you (though we don't tooooo much but still) it's always fun. I feel like I keep missing you whenever you're on and that's super lame bc you have great taste in prettyyyy much everything. ps you should give me your gamertag xoxo

You can tell a lot about a person from the music they listen to. Put your music device on shuffle and post the first 10 songs that play without skipping. Tag some people afterwards.

Maids a-milking: eight things you like about your friends

I’m going to recycle the answer I gave Sarah, because I quite like it: “1) they are understanding when I am super fucking busy with grad school and teaching, 2) they are also cool with my constant want to go see movies, 3) they make me smile, 4) they send me long-ass asks to distract me from panicking over my papers, 5) most of them still live within a 2-hour radius so I can see them sometimes, 6) they share my taste in awesome things, 7) they are doing cool things with their lives too, and 8) I love them all v much <3 <3 <3” (self, earlier today) (cite yo sources)
