10 Facts
1. I've loved sharks, mainly the Great White Shark, since before I could read. I'd take out library books just for the shark pictures.

2. I have lived in Japan from 1994 - 1998, being a navy brat to my mom (and dad and stepmom).


3. I have lived or visited 12 different countries/territories before I turned 13 years old: South Korea, China, Hong Kong (before it was returned to China), England, Spain, Bahamas, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Canada, and Japan.


4. I've never broken a bone in my body, but I accidentally fractured my friend's finger bone during my New Years Eve party when she placed hotels on Boardwalk and Park Place. I kicked her under the table, not aware she had her hands between her knees. She called her mom at 1am to take her to the hospital, lying that she tripped on the stairs in my home. 


5. I was on the front page of Pensacola News Journal when I was 7-years-old, shaking hands with President Bush during his campaign against Bill Clinton. 


6. I'm 50% Greek (and it shows), but I am 25% Polish, 12.5% Irish, and 12.5% Native American/Canadian 


7. I am still friends with my best friend from 1st grade: Nakia. We attended each other's college graduations, and when we were friends for 20 years we went to Disney World to celebrate. Today, we've been friends for 24 years.


8. My mom would take me to other countries during my Spring Breaks, while we lived in Japan. The first Spring Break we went to South Korea, and at 9 years old I got lost on the bus. I was suppose to take the bus back to the base, ahead of my mom, but I went the opposite route. I was terrified, but the bus eventually went back the same route and I made it to the base without my mom realizing I was lost.


9.  I've never had a pet dog die of old age. My first dog was kidnapped from my neighborhood, shot twice in the ass with a gun, and then left on the side of the road where he was hit by a car. We got him back a month later, in time to let him die at home. My second dog was intentionally fed poisonous meat in our front yard at night as revenge. When my mom called me at college to tell me about our second dog being murdered, she sobbed "I don't want any more dogs. I can't handle this." 
My two dogs were both killed by sick, evil men.

10. Living in Japan, I had many bullies, and would often get ganged up on and beaten up. One specific, super tall bully, Courtney, in 5th grade would stomp on my foot or push me. So, one day, I grabbed his heavy backpack while we lined up on the second floor of the school for the bell. I threw the bag to my friend and she saw he had his Social Studies book inside and laughed as she threw it over the ledge. He had to go get his bag while we went into class. When he came back he was smirking at us, and then my friend and I got called to the principals office. Apparently the heavy bag landed on a 1st grader and knocked her out (but she was okay). The principal called our parents about suspending us, having us write something stupid over and over in the cafeteria. Well, my mom is the classic working single mom who will be pissed to get a call from the school while she's at work. Apparently my mom's blowing back at the principal to not have prevented the bullying up to this point was their fault, and she'd be damned if I would be suspended for their failure and that she'd take care of the problem. I didn't realize any of this, because we were told to stop writing and return to class. The NEXT AFTERNOON, I walked home (we lived in an apartment tower across the street from the school), and walked into MY living room to see my BULLY and his mom! I was so stunned, I just stood there in horror that this kid now knew where I lived. My mom had used the base phone book to look up the kid's parent, and the phone book also lists the military member's rank, and my mom saw my bully's mom was an officer. We talked things out for about an hour or two, and literally after that we were friends up through my 7th grade year (my last year in Japan). We'd say hello to each other, and I'd ask if he was still carrying his social studies book home. My mom solved bullying for me when my school failed to do so.




Questions to answer: 
1. If you could grant a wish, who would you give it to? My mom

2. Do you prefer the evening or morning and why? Evening, I can stay up all night to see a sunrise, but getting out of bed is the hardest part of my day.


3. Tea or coffee? Coffee, but just barely ahead of tea.


4. If you could have someone direct your life, who would it be? 90s Steven Spielberg


5. In the event of a zombie apocolypse, what would be three things that you would for sure bring with you that did not involve bashing in
the undead's skulls for survival? Or would you even survive the first wave? I don't see myself surviving. I was the idiot who stood in a parking lot and watched a tornado hit the mall before me, not thinking I should get to safety. The people inside the parking lot restaurant were yelling at us to get inside.


6. What is your opinion of the 'big bang'? I believe it more than a bearded man in the sky created everything from nothing. Science, bitches! Energy can not be created or destroyed.


7. What makes you happy? Too many things to list. I am told I am easily amused, but I feel that's better than being hard to amuse.


8. What is your ideal date night like? One where I'm not anxious or nervous about the conversation or doing something to make myself look like an idiot.  


9. If you could time travel, where would you go, and would you use the return pass to come back home? I'm not sure when in time I'd want to be a woman and see around. Maybe the vikings? I'd like to see Greeks in their philosophy era. 


10. What is your take on Chris Pratt? The man is sexy with raptors.


My questions:
1. Boxers or briefs? (preferred to see on a man or wear, whichever)

2. Favorite MLP of all time?

3. Toilet paper roll goes under or over?

4. Favorite ice cream flavor and/or brand?

5. Movie scene that has stuck with you for many years, and why?

6. What is something uplifting you were told and still hold dear after all this time?

7. Motto you live by?

8. Favorite Disney Princess?

9. Cats or Dogs?

10. Your middle name? If you don't have one, what would you choose for your middle name?

1. Boxers or briefs? (preferred to see on a man or wear, whichever)
boxers. Mainly since I've actually never seen a man in briefs exept on film and they don't do too much for me. and the fascination that I can wear the boxers if I choose!

2. Favorite MLP of all time?

OH.... Um... Starcatcher. 
I was watching the OLD MLP last night and she's a really pretty white pegasus and I quite enjoyed her design and personality. 

3. Toilet paper roll goes under or over?
OVER! Never under! Who even does under? If you go over you can make it look pretty too!

4. Favorite ice cream flavor and/or brand?
I adore mint chocolate chip. That is on my own.  However, I have a dream that if a man brings me a strawberry ice cream cone... he will be the one. But I never see that happening so I don't hold my breath and continue with mint chocolate chip. 

5. Movie scene that has stuck with you for many years, and why?
AAAAHH! Besides the raptors in the kitchen???!!!
The very end of the Phantom of the Opera (2004) When it closes in on the rose on Christine's grave and it shows that Eric still loves her despite her going with Raoul... it makes me cry every time. 

6. What is something uplifting you were told and still hold dear after all this time?
My mother told me this when I was maybe about 7 or 8. It was over the summer and we were at my grandparents house on Lake Chataqua and eating snacks outisde on the deck. She told me that when the sun hit my hair just right it looked like spun gold. It makes me smile every time I go out into the sun (and actually have my hair down >...<").

7. Motto you live by?
If you don't like it, don't do it... unless you HAVE to. 
Obligation is something that drives us all. And I do really feel that unless you are obligated on a familial level that you shouldn't do something if it makes you feel bad. That's not right. Usually, if you don't like something and you do it for family ro for a close friend it is much easier to do something that makes you uncomfortable. 
I am also a firm believer of Dancing where the music is. 

8. Favorite Disney Princess?
Belle. She reads AND she ended up living in an enchanted castle! That is my dream come true! Not to mention I like that she yearns for something more in her life and on that I can very much empathize... and continue to read books. 

9. Cats or Dogs?
DOOOOOGS~ I love kitties, but dogs for me are the best. Shi-tzus, Lhaso Apsos, and Corgis are the best. Little dogs more than big dogs becasue I don't like the slobber or having to fend them off a nice clean shirt. At least with little dogs you can lift your pant leg or something but there is no escaping a big dog!

10. Your middle name? If you don't have one, what would you choose for your middle name?
Kohl 
It is German for cabbage. 
And here I was thinking that it was going to be something really cool!
