These are the rules: 1) rule one: always post the rules, 2) rule two: answer the questions the person who tagged you asked and write 11 new ones, 3) tag 11 people and link them to the post, and 4) actually tell them you tagged them. 1. What is your number one regret in life? I believe my biggest regret in life is that I didn't ask my Grandmama meaningful questions while she was still a body on Earth. She led this fascinating life, filled with travels and the truest love I've ever known. If I could have an hour more with her, I'd gather all the information I could about she and my Grandpapa's families and lineage. Granted, I was 11 when she passed, but I often think how sad I am to not know all about her. 2. Who is your favorite president? Teddy Roosevelt is absolutely my favorite President. He beat childhood asthma, had a black belt in jujitsu, and was shot in the chest in an attempted assassination attempt, and finished his speech with a bullethole in his chest. As for sexiest president... Definitely Ulysses S. Grant. Mmm, that beard though. 3. East Coast or West Coast? I've never been to the East Coast, so I'll go with West Coast! Only in California are you able to go surfing at the beach and drive a few hours north and be in snow. 4. Who do you wish you talked to more? My half-sister, nephews, and niece in Texas. Luckily I'm going out there this December (: 5. What is your biggest habit? Can I say tumblr? Biggest habit is getting piercings and tattoos, I love getting them! My worst habit is picking at my nails or biting them when I'm nervous. 6. What have you done lately that has made you proud? I earned two promotions at work and I'm 7 major courses away from my Child Development degree. Not to mention I built like four pieces of ikea furniture without directions, so there's that. 7. What is the last book you read for pleasure? Last week I read Orphan Train by Christina Baker Kline, and I'm nearly finished with The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. 8. Who do you admire the most? My Mom, definitely. She went back to college my senior year of high school and became a nurse. She is the most incredible person I've ever met, everyone she meets loves her. Not to mention the fact that she's a total sweetheart, borderline doormat, but when my biological father cheated on her, she got even. He went out one day, and she packed her two month old baby (me) and every belonging in their apartment up and left without saying goodbye. She left him one fork, one spoon, one knife, one bowl, and one pan so he couldn't have his hooch over. Reeeeespect. 9. What is your favorite dance move? The one where I just shake my ass because any other attempts just look like awkward white girl moves. 10. Where do you want to go more than anywhere else in the world and why? Canada! My maternal lineage originates there, and from the photos I've seen, it's absolutely beautiful. I'd also really love to visit Germany and see the Holocaust sites, and Ireland because it's GORGEOUS. 11. Do you have a type and what is it? Dark hair, light eyes, good relationship with his family He has to be musical (if not talented, able to enjoy many genres of music & sing obnoxiously with me on road trips) Chivalrous, cuddly, similar sense of humor to that of my own, desire to be married and have children, ambitious, respectful, good cook (at least a mean grilled cheese), likes to read, good at surprises (he'd need to be, I'm an awful snoop), ability to be dominating and dominated in certain situations (*cough* yes I'm a five year old with an inability to openly admit kink), and someone who would love to adventure with me. Are my standards high enough? Hah :p Feel free to answer these yourself, and ask me new ones! (:
