What the hell does that even MEAN??

Happy New Year my lovely readers! I hope your 2012 is off to a wonderful start! Before we start, I have a question that is related to the new year. Well, usually the song "Auld Lang Syne" is sung after the ball drops in New York (shout out to Dick Clark! Woot woot!). WHAT THE HELL IS AN AULD LANG SYNE?? Does anyone really know? Please tell me if you do. I'd like to know what that shit means. 

Now! The fun can begin! This post is all about random questions I've received, so enjoy the randomness that follows!

1.) What are you looking forward to in this new year?

Well, I am hoping that the year will be kind to me first and foremost! I hope that I will be able to start my career as a nurse in the setting that I most desire (a hospital, NOT a nursing home). Also, I hope that 2012 has a passionate love affair planned for me! I'm ready to start writing my love story! In addition, here are some other things that I look forward to:

And get proposed to from Zak, get married, and have his children.... but that was last year's goals also. In all honesty, all I am hoping for is to be happy and content. Maybe learn to love what I have and who I am.

2.) In which time period/era would you like to live in?

This is a tough question because there are so many decades that I would want to be young in! Ideally, I would be a 22 year old girl in the 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's! So I guess I will say born in the 1940's so that I can grow up in the 1950's and am able to enjoy the culture of the 1960's and 1970's! From a very young age I have told my mom that I had been born in the wrong era! I love the music, movies, actors/actresses, and overall culture from the past. People were different back then (some not in a good way), but life seemed simpler back then. No worries about checking facebook, kids could play until dark, toys didn't need warnings on the box, you knew your neighbors, and you could trust more easily. It's funny. As I type this, I am listening to my music.... it has been all "oldies". One word- perfection.

3.) Dead or alive, who would you most like to meet? Why?

Without a doubt, my answer is Marilyn Monroe. There is just something so fascinating about her and I have so many questions for her. In a way, I feel as if I have some sort of connection to her and I would love the opportunity just sit down and chat with her. Get her side of the story instead of speculation. Also, I would like to discuss literature with her. Many people think she was this dumb blond, but she was actually an avid reader and very intelligent. Something she had to hide from the public in order to keep up her persona. So let me rephrase that. I would like to chat with Marilyn Monroe, but I think the person I most want to talk to is Norma Jeane.

4.) To you, what are good qualities of a friend?

First I'd like to say that my friends are very important to me. There have been many times where I have been burned by a so-called friend, which has made me very thankful for those true friends that stick by you no matter what. Honesty is a must in a person. Sometimes it is difficult to tell the truth to someone, but without it, a friendship (or any relationship for that matter) will not survive. Reliability is also a big one. A friend should be there for you.... especially if you say you are going to be there. Any friends of mine have to have a good sense of humor! I like to make jokes (sometimes at their expense- but all in fun! Never mean ;P ) and my friends and I are always laughing!


5.) Your current feelings about facebook/tumblr?

I hate facebook! I wish I wasn't so addicted, otherwise I would delete my account. I just hate the fakeness of people on facebook. They say they are your "friends" but then don't do anything. And I hate how some ignorant slut can post a status about getting wasted everyday and she gets a thousand 'likes' and a billion comments. Then I post a status that is actually GOOD, is spelled PROPERLY, and has accurate grammar and I maybe get 1 'like' .... and that's on a GOOD day! Tumblr on the other hand is my new escape! I LOVE it there! I get way more love and appreciation from random strangers, than "friends" on facebook!


6.) Name your top 10 guilty pleasures.

~Music! I listen to something everyday and it always makes my day better!
~Ghost Adventures/Zak Bagans..... not much explanation is needed here!

THAT SMILE!!

~I like being alone. Not all the time! But I most certainly enjoy the time I have by myself.
~Old furniture! I love going antiquing and finding vintage and unique pieces of furniture. I'm kinda like Phoebe from 'Friends', I like my stuff to have a story instead of the mass produced stuff..... although I like some of that stuff too!
~Movies- I have an extensive movie collection that is always growing. I love being able to watch what I want, when I want.
~I am a gossip whore. I LOVE getting a new piece of juicy gossip! Now people probably won't tell me anything. but don't let that scare you off! If you don't have anything nice to say about someone, come sit by me!!
~I have a weakness for macaroni and cheese. It is THE best food that was ever invented. In fact, I think I'll have some now.
~Shoes are a guilty pleasure. Love looking at them in the store, on line, on a bus, on a plane ;) I not only have actual wearable shoes, but also have a shoe figurines/ornaments. All my shoes are hot hot hot! Especially my clear stripper ones!
~I love to sing and dance when no one is home. I crank the music, scream the lyrics, and dance as crazily as I want. It might look a little something like this:

~I don't know if this qualifies as a guilty pleasure or an addiction but, when ever Quantum Leap is on (which is like never! Which is why I have it on dvd!) I MUST watch! It is my all time favorite show and I LOVEEEEEEEE it!!

7.) What would you do if you won the lottery?

First, I would pee in my pants. Then I would scream and jump around. Then I would change my underpants and do some laundry. After I had claimed my fortune, I would give some of it to charities/causes that I hold close to my heart. I would then proceed to buy a large house and furnish it with antiques. Then I would go shopping!! Pretty woman style!! Like this: 'Pretty Woman' Shopping Scene . I would then buy my way into Zak's heart ;)

Ok, that's it for now. Send me more questions and I will write some more! Hope you enjoyed reading as much as I enjoyed writing! Please leave any feedback! It is much appreciated! (Don't make me beg! PLEASE!)
