This Week's Random Dozen

1. If you could master one sport, what would it be?
Fencing. It's awesome, in a 1587 kind of way.

2. When you make a major purchase, do you go with your gut instinct, or do you do research to make an informed decision?
Definitely do research. I don't ever believe the people in the store.

3. There is an old kids' game that says you can find out what your movie star name would be by using your middle name as your first name and the name of the street you grew up on as your last. What is your movie star name?
Grace Marshall.

4. Would you rather give up your favorite music or your favorite food?
Favorite food. I'd curl up and die without music.

5. There are two types of banana preferences. One is pristine yellow, almost to the point of being green; the other is spotty and more ripe. Which is your preference?
The almost green one. I like them a little sour.

6. Your favorite tree is?
Magnolia. Besides being beautiful, I have really good memories of climbing the magnolia at a friend's house when I was little.

7. On a scale of 1-10, how tech savvy are you?
5 or 6. I'm not really great with the computer/iPod stuff. I have to have someone else explain it all to me. Once I learn it I'm good though.

8. Has H1N1 touched your family?
Yes, because one of Moose's friends had it, and my school is "strongly encouraging" all staff members to get the vaccine. *rolls eyes* Like it's been tested and been proven to be safe or something.

9. Are you an analytical person, or do you just accept things the way they are without questioning or scrutinizing?
It depends. Politically and spiritually I'm very analytical - always questioning and wanting things proven to me. Personally, I just accept things like they are. I believe people unless I have reason to do otherwise.

10. Is your personality more like that of a dog, cat, or Koala?
I think a dog. I'm really friendly and open, but I sure bare my teeth and growl if you threaten/hurt someone close to me.

11. Do you keep in touch with friends you made years ago?
Teen Missions Int'l friends, YES. We're very close. Friends from college, yes, definitely. Childhood friends? Not really.

12. You are checking out at a grocery store. In the express lane, there are more people than the regular lanes, but of course, their load is less than those in the regular lanes. Which lane do you choose (assuming you qualify for the express lane) and why?
It depends on how many more people there are and how fast the cashiers are moving. Sometimes the "express" lanes are HORRIBLY slow, so I go to a regular one. It would depend on the situation and how much of a hurry I'm in.

That's all for now!
