Thank you infinitetuesday and I took forever to answer so I'm sorry ^.^
THIS IS SO LONG but some introspection was nice, haha
1: Talk about the first time you watched your favorite movie.
It was with my little brother in an entirely empty theater and we had fun, but it wasn't my favorite until I saw it again later when it came out on DVD
2: Talk about your first kiss.
My first boyfriend and I went on a picnic for our one-month and BOOM
3: Talk about the person you've had the most intense romantic feelings for.
A really, really good guy who's been through a whole lot with me. It's not like I've known him forever or anything, but we click really well and he makes me really happy, but also pushes me to be better.
4: Talk about the thing you regret most so far.
A dumb decision with a guy one time when I let my lack of self-esteem control me
5: Talk about the best birthday you've had.
A few years ago I was having some major friend drama, and this girl was refusing to play nice with others and it was stressing me out a lot. So I decided to not have a party because I didn't want to have a fight at my party, and my friends decided SCREW IT and they threw me a surprise party and it was so wonderful
6: Talk about the worst birthday you've had.
Possibly this year, because I kinda sacrificed my birthday for my mom because she wanted to go out of town and so I didn't get to see a single friend on my birthday
7: Talk about your biggest insecurity.
Probably that I'm not going to be good enough to do what I want to do with my life. I know I'm smart, but I'm not THAT smart, and I'm worried I won't be able to handle it.
8: Talk about the thing you are most proud of
I think I'm the most proud of balancing things. I'm not AMAZING at it, but I've learned pretty well how to balance friends, school, band, relationships, God, church, etc. I'm good at being busy, I suppose. There's a lot more I could be proud of, but I kinds feel like it was more God moving in my life than me doing something, sooo, no credit there
9: Talk about little things on your body that you like the most.
I like my hair, because it's cooperative. I like my eyes, they're big. I like my legs because they're kinda toned-ish and they take me places.
10: Talk about the biggest fight you've ever had.
It was with the aforementioned friend who almost ruined my birthday. She was really selfish back then and I was really immature and it was not a good combo. I think both of us have grown up a lot, though we're not good friends anymore.
11: Talk about the best dream you've ever had.
After my sister died, I kept dreaming that she had never left. They're always just us doing normal things and everyday stuff, minus drama and grief and plus her.
12: Talk about the worst dream you've ever had.
I HAD THIS ONE DREAM ABOUT A ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE AND IT WAS HORRIBLE EVERYONE DIED AND THEN TRIED TO EAT ME NOPE NOPE NO BUENO
13: Talk about the first time you had sex/how you imagine your first time.
I imagine the first time will be with someone I love a lot, on our wedding night because I'm old-fashioned and pretty protective of my heart in that respect.
14: Talk about a vacation.
Last year I went to Bonnaroo with one of my best friends and we had so much fun and saw so much good music and it was really last-minute and wonderful
15: Talk about the time you were most content in life.
Last summer. Things were going really well for me. I was close to my friends, close to my family, got over some drama with my sister. My (now) boyfriend was in my life then, and I had a lot of confidence in myself. I was having fun, and I was really thriving in my spiritual life, too.
16: Talk about the best party you've ever been to.
This is lame, but the best party ive ever been to was in 5th grade because the girl who threw it was stinking rich and we rode in a limo and went to a fancy dinner and had this INTENSE scavenger hunt, then stayed up all night AND SHE GAVE WEBKINZ AS PARTY FAVORS. TO LIKE 20 GIRLS. DO YOU KNOW HOW COOL WEBKINZ WERE
I mean I've probs been to better in high school because my friends and I are great party throwers and we've had some AMAZING times, but that one was just so obviously rad, haha
17: Talk about someone you want to be friends with.
There is this girl at my church who seems SO cool but she kinda obviously wants nothing to do with us hah
18: Talk about something that happened in elementary school.
I never learned my 7, 8, or 12 times tables because I was so bad at it that I couldn't move on past 6
19: Talk about something that happened in middle school.
None of my friends got the "that's what she said" jokes so we were lost and confused when everyone started saying them so we asked this girl who at the time seemed so much more mature than us and it was a huge ordeal to get her to tell us
20: Talk about something that happened in high school.
we used to play this "clip game" where we brought those wooden clothes pins to school and would "clip" people when they weren't looking so they'd go walking around with a clothespin stuck to them and tbh it was hilarious
21: Talk about a time you had to turn someone down.
There was a kid my freshmen year who liked me and I couldn't figure out how to say no so I agreed to a date and then we kind of stopped talking and he asked me a few months later if we were still "more than friends" and I was like "um no....really?" cause I never liked him in the first place and he hadn't talked to me, like, ever
22: Talk about your worst fear.
My worst fear is that my little brother will never be saved. He's on this path of, like, serious darkness right now and my whole family is really trying with this loving unconditionally thing, but it's hard to watch him hate himself and make obviously poor decisions and not be able to do anything. He so obviously has a hole in his heart.
23: Talk about a time someone turned you down.
I've never actually been turned down, because I've never asked anyone out. (i think? my current guy was a gray area for a while, haha) but I have been dumped, and that sucked a lot.
24: Talk about something someone told you that meant a lot.
When I got dumped last year, I was already having an identity crisis because of some other factors, and that just made it so much worse because my self-esteem hit rock bottom. A really really wise woman told me during that time "remember WHO you are and WHOSE you are" and it took a while, but it eventually became a mantra for getting better .
25: Talk about an ex-best friend.
I've already mentioned her a few times because I don't really have falling outs with friends often. She was great, but she needed more than I could give her and it caused a lot of tension
26: Talk about things you do when you're sick.
Drink LOTS of vitamin c. Lay around. Make excuses not to do things.
27: Talk about your favorite part of someone else's body.
Not sure it it's my VERY favorite because there's a lot to love, but a certain-someone's arms and hands because they're big and strong and his hands are all calloused and it's just a very obvious thing about him
28: Talk about your fetishes.
I don't think I have any? At least if i do I haven't figured them out. I mean there are turn ons and offs but nothing that I'm, like, obsessed with
29: Talk about what turns you on.
Making me laugh, little, absent minded touches, neck kisses, lots of things
30: Talk about what turns you off.
Bad breath, not listening to "no," anything and everything camo, any sort of gross smell, really
31: Talk about what you think death is like.
I think the process of dying is probably different depending on how you die, but I'm pretty confident in the Christian afterlife
32: Talk about a place you remember from your childhood.
My parents used to rent beach houses for a week in North Carolina and I remember how wonderful those beach houses looked. They were super colorful and bright and they seemed really magical to me at the time
33: Talk about what you do when you are sad.
I either a) wallow in a pit of sad or b) do things to purposefully make myself feel better. Call someone, watch ANTM or project runway, spend time reading my bible, do my hair and makeup. Things to make me feel like me again.
34: Talk about the worst physical pain you've endured.
Period cramps. Without painkiller and heating pads I literally vomit from pain. It's awful.
35: Talk about things you wish you could stop doing.
I wish I could stop being impatient with people that are slower with me. I'm so patient with other characteristics of people, but slowness is really hard because things are so OBVIOUS and it feels like they're purposefully missing things and I know that's not true but it bothers me anyways.
36: Talk about your guilty pleasures.
I pretend like I don't, but I love when my brother makes me watch dumb anime's with him
37: Talk about someone you thought you were in love with.
I thought I was in love with this guy a while ago, but he never treated as well I think I should've been treated, because although he was so nice and respectful of me, I didn't get the attention I needed, and I never felt like i could be 100% honest with him, which is a major problem.
38: Talk about songs that remind you of certain people.
There's this one song by Radical Face, "Always Gold" that is my stupid anthem for me and my siblings.
39: Talk about things you wish you'd known earlier.
That just because you're honest, doesn't mean everyone else is. And God is in control, and that's okay. Also, take some time for yourself.
40: Talk about the end of something in your life.
High school is about to end for me, and I think that became real when marching band ended. It was the first real last I had and I miss it and I realized that while I'm kind of ready to move on, my high school hasn't been that bad to me, either.
