hi there, I was wondering from what show or..."thing" are that gifset that say "aren´t you supposed to be babysitting gyna?

Hello!

I believe you are referring to this post: http://g-swag-g.tumblr.com/post/151776969503/divination-i-am-all-of-them

That is the show Brooklyn 99. It airs on Fox in the US and then goes on Hulu; not sure where you can find it if you live outside the US. I would highly recommend it; it’s a comedy police show with a racially diverse cast and it’s feminist.

whats your favorite parker/hardison moment?

All of them! lol. They are definitely one of my OTPs.

Actually though, I’d have to say either the short little scene where Parker says she wants/is craving pretzels, or the scene in season 5 where Hardison rigs up the lights to look like stars so he and Parker can have their picnic. They are both adorably sweet scenes, and they just have such a cute relationship that is drama free and I love it.

18 and 35

18) A random memory from your childhood:

Once, for whatever reason, while my grandma was babysitting me, I didn’t want her to go into my room. So I flipped the lock and shut my door really fast to lock her out - which also locked me out. And then my uncle had to come and open the door to let us back in since my parents were at work. lol. I don’t think I ever got in trouble for that either...

35) Have you ever been admitted to a hospital? Why?

I have. When I was 9 I got really sick - throwing up and couldn’t handle any pressure on my stomach; it went on for three days. Turns out my appendix was necrotic and slowly dying inside my body. My dumbass pediatrician and his nurse kept telling my mom it was the stomach flu, but when we went to Urgent Care, the doctor there said I should have been in three days ago and that I need to have an emergency appendectomy. I cried because I thought I’d be awake for the surgery. lol. And I remember trying to keep my eyes open when they gave me the anesthesia so that they wouldn’t start before I was fully asleep. Then after two weeks in the hospital, they sent me home even though my white blood cell count was high. The next day I went back into the hospital and had another surgery to remove abscess pockets that had formed & then I stayed in the hospital for another 2 weeks. So all around fun time. And while people who have their appendix removed now have tiny, itty-bitty scars, mine literally goes from my belly button to my hip; it’s super cute.

1, 8, 47

1) What did you want to be when you were a kid?

I’ve changed by mind a lot. (which is still happening right now, tbh). I think at one point I wanted to be a vet. At another point I wanted to be a daycare teacher (? are they called teachers?). As I got older I wanted to be a nurse and then an anesthesiologist - reality set in on that one never happening. So basically I’ve never known what I want to do and I still don’t.

8) What are you saving money for right now?

Nothing really. Mostly just to have money saved. Kinda just to hit a specific number. 

47) What is your favorite place to shop?

Probably Forever 21 - they have cute stuff that’s not super expensive. I’m not the type of person to spend a lot of money on clothes; I always check the clearance/sale stuff. That’s where most of my online order come from. I need to go to Target one of these days to get a new swimsuit - they have ones with underwire! And as a larger chested woman, that is a very exciting prospect.

Rules: write the first ten songs that come up on shuffle (no skipping) and quote your favorite lyric from each song, then tag 10 people.

I was tagged by @theawkwardterrier

1) Blank Space - Taylor Swift

'Cause, darling, I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream

2) Fly With Me - The Jonas Brothers

If we chase the stars to lose our shadows Peter Pan and Wendy turned out fine

3) Vanilla Twilight - Owl City

I'll watch the night turn light blue But it's not the same without you Because it takes two to whisper quietly The silence isn't so bad 'Til I look at my hands and feel sad 'Cause the spaces between my fingers Are right where yours fit perfectly

4) Stereo Hearts - Gym Class Heroes  (ft. Adam Levine)

If I could only find a note to make you understand I'd sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand Just keep it stuck inside your head, like your favorite tune

5) The Real World - Owl City

Reality is a lovely place but I wouldn’t want to live there.*

6) Cowboy Casanova - Carrie Underwood

He looks like a cool drink of water But he's candy-coated misery

7) Best Song Ever - One Direction

And we danced all night to the best song ever We knew every line, now I can't remember

8) Wildest Dreams - Taylor Swift

Say you'll remember me Standing in a nice dress, staring at the sunset babe Red lips and rosy cheeks Say you'll see me again even if it's just pretend

9) Cinderella - Steven Curtis Chapman

So I will dance with Cinderella While she is here in my arms 'Cause I know something the prince never knew Oh I will dance with Cinderella I don't want to miss even one song 'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight And she'll be gone

10) Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol

Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

*this is one of my all time favorite lyrics; I’ve considered getting that line as a tattoo.

- Bolded songs are ones I really think are worth a listen if you’ve never listened to them before

I’m behind on answering these, so I’m tagging anyone that wants to do this. Tag me in it so I can see!

23, 26, 36, 39, 66

23: What’s your favorite thing to do on lazy days where you have zero obligations?

Watch Netflix, play Sims, read. Stuff that doesn’t take a lot of brainpower. 

26: What are the shoes you’ve had forever and wear with every single outfit?

A pair of Nike tennis shoes/sneakers (whatever you want to cal them). I wear them to work every day, even though I have a big kid job and probably shouldn’t. But I work at a startup, so, whatever, it’s fine. But they’re starting to get holes in them, so it’s probably time to get a new pair. I also have a pair of Under Armour memory foam sandals that also have holes in them from wearing them too much.

36: Which band’s sound would fit your mood right now?

I don’t really know a sound, but something very wah poor me, everything sucks? TMI: My period just started and I have a migraine so I just feel spectacular, atm. So if I had to pick a song, probably either ‘Crimson Wave’ by Tacocat (a feminist punk pop band that I saw live for my brother’s birthday) and/or ‘I Hate Everyone’ by Get Set Go. lol.

39: What color do you wear the most?

Probably black, just because almost every pair of leggings I have that are somewhat work appropriate are black. (What? Like I said, I work for a startup, so no one really gives a shit what I wear. Plus I have tummy troubles, so I don’t like wearing jeans because they feel too tight/restricting on my stomach.)

66: What would your ideal flower crown look like?

I don’t really know, because I don’t really like flowers. I think they all smell bad, & they die very quickly, so I don’t see the appeal. I also know zero about flowers. So some type of flower that’s not super ugly & also doesn’t have a strong smell.

Fun/embarrassing: 3, 124, 125

Answering this

3. 3 fears

- CLOWNS - they are creepy little shits; there is nothing fun or entertaining about them at all.

-Death. not to get too deep or anything. lol. But I’m not really religious, so I don’t have faith that there is somewhere that we go after we die (even though I’d like there to be). So I’m afraid of dying and that just being it; finuto; you’re finished; that’s all folks. 

-the Dark to some extent - I’ve gotten better. But I used to hate being the last to bed because I’d have to run from the living room to my room after turning off the lights cuz I was afraid something (a demon of some sort, usually) was going to get me. I’m going to blame Buffy and Charmed for that though, because I feel like I watched those at wayyyy too young of an age. Oh well, they are spectacular shows, so...

124. Voted in a presidential election?

Yes. I voted in the last presidential election for Barack Obama. PSA: VOTE PEOPLE, VOTE. VOTING IS VERY IMPORTANT. VOTE FOR HILARY OR BERNIE, BECAUSE ALL OF THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES ARE AWFUL. anywho, back to your regular scheduled programming. 

125. Rode in an ambulance?

No. But I have had to call 911. My last year of college I lived with my friend who’s Deaf and her boyfriend started having a seizure so I had to call 911 for her. That was nice and terrifying. I had gone out the night before, so I didn’t get to bed until like 3am and then she pounded on my door at like 5am and scared the shit out of me. And then I had to interpret while talking to the 911 operator and while my heart was trying to beat out of my chest.
