Much to the dismay of many of my friends I enjoy filling out and returning those e-mail surveys that circle around. You know, the ones that you're supposed to fill out with what your name is, your interests, if body building is something you could see your best friend doing, etc.
I have quite a few of these things that I've filled out in the past. So I'll be posting one periodically.
I've modified this a tiny bit so that those of you who don't know me won't gawk in horror at some of my responses which my friends know are completely 100% fake. I'm sure I missed some though. So if you read something that makes you think "oh my gosh, is he really like that?" it's probably not true. Feel more than free to ask me. :)
On with the the survey...
June 5, 2001
Okay I'm going to say what Chelsea said: Alright, I'm not going to apologize for sending this out by saying that i'm bored, i think it's just plain amusing. Send it back, not because i don't already know all of this information, but because i want to see what kind of amusing comments you can come up with.
Name: It's times like these that I have to sit back and wonder. Wonder why anyone would ask a question like this when they already know my name? The people who know my name won't get this survey so why bother? Heck, even if someone who doesn't know me gets this (it's always possible I guess) would see my name on the e-mail itself before they clicked it. sheesh.
Have you ever: needed someone so bad?
1. Been Kissed: it happens in my dreams... but not in those dreams with the horses pooping (i'm serious... there was one dream like that once. very very scary)
2. Done drugs: i act like it, but I can't figure out where they are coming from
3. Eaten an entire box of oreos: it's not a box. it's a package. a whole box would be insane. there are lots of packages in the boxes that the stores get. so no. duh. not to mention oreos get stuck in your teeth like no other cookie on earth.
4. Eaten sushi: i don't eat fish that have the texture of apple sauce (note: if sushi doesn't have that texture... it just goes to show how much I know about sushi)
5. Been on stage: i've been on a stage, but not "on stage" in the sense that i was performing infront of a live (they were all dead) audience. elementary school does not apply.
6. Been dumped: i remember when i was a new scout the older guys tried to stuff me in a garbage can. didn't work. i've always been to lurpie.
7. Has someone been unfaithful to you: I'm sure that most, if not all, of my crushes have been unfaithful in some way. haha
8. Gotten in a car accident: me? heck no. \*avoiding eye contact\*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Either/Or
9. Cold or hot: hot french fries, sun, women. cold ice cream, ice, snow, drinking water, women so i can warm them up haha, but not cold in the "cold shoulder" sense... that's no fun.
10. Blue or Red: blue eyes look better than red eyes.
11. Rain or snow: "rain smeels good", snow is fun to throw at people... i've noticed that throwing rain at people just doesn't quite have the same effect...
12. Give or receive: give kisses, receive computers... i mean kisses. some things are just better if it's reciprocal
13. Rose or daisy: i would have to go with roses, but not for myself... if i was to choose one for myself I'd probably pick um... a rose and then give it to a girl even if it was for me in the first place
14. Go to a Private school or Public School: did it ever occur to the writer of this survey that some people don't go to school at all? you are always learning therefore life is a school. life is public and private.
15. Chocolate milk or plain milk: sometimes you just can't make a decision based on a question as simple as "either/or". it gets too complicated. you have to take into account all the uses for each one and which use is most useful and how much you enjoy the things they are good for. milk is good for all cereal, dunking cookies, drinking, and pouring on peoples heads. chocolate milk is good for some cereals, some cookies, drinking, but not pouring on peoples heads because you wouldn't want to waste it because it tastes so darn good. so if you were to ask the question "which one do you like better for pouring on someone's head?" then I would answer A. plain milk.
16. Celsius or Fahrenheit: I know fahrenheit, but celsius makes more sense. freezing point is 0. why in the heck does fahrenheit start at 32 and why in the heck do we use it when no one else does? it's really dumb.
17. Spring or fall: spring. spring is a time for many things. including mowing the lawn, working in the garden, and sneezing. remind me again why i like spring. i really do like it though. it's so nice.
18. History or Science: The History of Science? The Science of History? The Science of the Science of History of Science? Science.
19. Math or English: both are completely unnecessary and all text books should be burned.
20. Alternative or Country: any alternative to country is good. haha. some country is good
21. Do you like someone of the opposite sex right now? yesh.
22. Do they know? probably.
23. What do you look for in a guy or girl? i don't look for guys. they find me. haha uh... I like girls. what I look for in a girl is... well, first off there has to be that initial attraction (hair, eyes, smile, facial features, drivers license photo) Then you get to know the person and their personality and spirituality become the most important things (although the smile and eyes will still totally stop all thought processes other than "wow"). She has to know how to have fun. She must cook and clean. hahaha just kidding about those two (the two being cook and clean... not cooking/clearning and knowing how to have fun). :)
