Please excuse the poor formatting and long post. This is the information I felt I should fill out for a reference of where I am today. Tomorrow's post will be a Temperament outline of me. After a few of these types of posts, I will finally start to update about my daily musings.
-------------
For 2010
-------------
For 2010
Will you be looking for a new job? Yes. I will be looking for a full-time job with benefits. Same company though.
Will you be looking for a new relationship? I have made the promise to myself that I will not be "looking", if it happens, great, if it doesn't happen, that is also good. I need to focus on me and who I am. Going on dates is perfectly acceptable. Fooling around with someone worth my time is acceptable as well. A real relationship just isn't what I need right now. It has taken me 6 months to realize that.
New house? Yes, come July I'll be moving into a new apartment.
What will you do different in 2010? I will focus on me and my aspirations. I will enjoy fulfilling my personal interests. I will be more adventurous and open to new and exciting activities/trips.
New Years resolution? To get to work on time. But there is more to my resolutions than that.
What will you not be doing in 2010? I will not be in a relationship, and I will not be in school. That is a big deal to me!
Any trips planned? Scotland, Boston, Bali, S.Amer by cruise
Wedding plans? hopefully no one I know... besides one girl who it is about damn time her and him tie the knot.
What's on your calendar? Yoga 4 times a week. Work during the week. Shenanigans during the weekends.
What can't you wait for? Moving out of my current place. I live with my ex and his friends. The tension is unreal, but I can handle that. What I cannot handle is sharing a room with someone (even if he wasn't my ex). I have now learned that I never want to share a room with someone again, unless I had an extra room to retreat to and be alone in.
What would you like to see happen different? I would like to see my circle of friends become closer and more tight-knit. I am the type of person with many friends from all walks of life and that is fine most of the times, but every now and then I am bummed when I haven't seen a group of them for a while, or I feel a bit out of the loop when they have closer friends than me.
What about yourself will you be changing? My attitude could always use an adjustment. But mainly I will be changing my lazy habits, like waking up late for work, being late to meetings, events, not organizing and cleaning my room when I need to. A lot of my life could be improved with just some simple changes.
What happened in '09 that you didn't think would ever happen? I moved in with my boyfriend (not a long term relationship) and it didn't work out. I hadn't the intention of staying with him forever, but I also didn't think the relationship would end while we lived together. I chose to live with him to find an easy, quick solution to a housing problem I had, but the quick and easy solution is often times not the best. I also think that I expected more out him as a person, and he cannot be that way because he is not old enough to understand common courtesy yet. (I am older than him). The issue here is that I figured, even if we broke up, that we would still be able to be friends. Not true.
Will you be nicer to the people you care about? Yes. I am already nice to them if I care about them, but I'm sure I could always do more... more to the point of this question, I am choosing to be nicer to old friends. I hope to rebuild those relationships for the future.
Will you dress differently this year than you did in 09? of course. I am always changing my style, just as styles change. I am choosing a more vibrant, post-apocalyptic, 80's, airy style. I will probably have to include pictures to better describe this, but this is how I feel on the inside, and I am always looking to portray myself through clothes.
Are you going to be in school in 2010? NO!!!!! Finally! I have graduated and moved on. I am so happy to be done with my undergraduate years. It was a big weight lifted off my shoulders when I found out that I did indeed graduate (I took an extra semester... so I found out last year that I did not get to graduate), and now they cannot take that away from me. SOOOOO RELIEVED! Now, after saying that, I do intend to go on to a graduate degree program in a couple of years, and I am always challenging myself to learn.
How will you make more money in 2010? I hope so, my company is at a stand still because of the economy and so even though it is clear I should be paid more and have put in more responsibility, the title and money are just not available yet. I am looking to see just what is available to me and I will make my decisions when I get the opportunity. I am loving my company though and am happy to be where I am currently.
Will you do charity work? I always do. I will look to my lovely sisters in my service soror to help me find opportunities in the future; now that I am out of school, the knowledge of those opps are not as easy to find for me.
Are you going to drink on New Years Eve? I definitely did. It was a great time.
Will you be nice to people you don't know? In the new year or just on new years eve? XP I believe it isn't as much being nice to people I don't know, as not assuming I know them before I really do. My problem in the past has been that I judge people based on their looks ("Oh they look like a smart person, too smart for me to say hi" or "They look stuck up, why would I want to meet them anyways?") I need to get past the superficial. Ya know, I need to do that in a lot of areas of my life.
Do you expect 2010 to be a worse year for you than 2009? Hell no. 2009 and that decade was a lot of trouble. I was growing into who I am now, and for me that was a great learning experience. But I am done with learning about others, I want to learn about myself and what I want. What makes me happy, what motivates me?
How much did you change from this time last year til now? If I had to put a number on it, I would say my life was 80% complete in a childish way. Now I am 50% complete in an adult way. I am much happier at my 50% of adulthood, than I was in my 80% of childhood. I am learning more about me and my ideals which will help me. I am finding myself to be more important than I ever knew. I have always been independent, but now I am seeing people actually believe me and not notice the independence, but notice me.
Do you plan on having a child? Hell no. Probably not for another 10-15 years.
Will you still be friends with the same people you are friends with now? Some. I hope to stay friends with those that are closest to me. I hope to have built stronger relationships with those who I have reconnected with recently.
Major lifestyle changes? Many. I am single, and happy about it. I am a working woman. I am a crafty person. I am a more organized person. I am a more outgoing person. I have said yes more times than no- giving me awesome opportunities for adventures.
What will you make sure doesn't happen in 2010 that happened in 09? Me, living with a boyfriend. I will also go as far as to say, me with a boyfriend. I will not allow myself to let that happen again. There is no need for me to be tied down and I should not let those feelings take over my life again.
What are your New Years Eve plans? I had people over at my place, we dressed up in my prom dresses, togas, wigs, and played champagne twister.
Will you have someone to kiss at midnight? Ya know, I didn't even think about this tradition this year. I was having way too much fun with my friends to even consider grabbing a guy to kiss. Although this has been a big deal for me in the past, it is nice to know it wasn't a big deal this past time.
Wishes for 2009? To be stronger emotionally, sometimes I cry at happy moments.... I don't like crying. To be wanted more, I feel as though right now, no one wants me around that much. I feel needed by some, but the wanting is a far better feeling. To be more in tune with myself, I feel as though I do not know who I am, what makes me passionate and what makes me liberated.
Would you do meth if it was legalized? no.
Abortion: for or against it? Pro
Do you think the world would fail with a female president? Hell no.

Should the war in Iraq be called off? Yes.
Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? No.
Do you believe in spanking children? Yes.
Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? The flag is just a symbol, it has no power unless there are people who believe in it. If I was given the chance, I would make the money. The American flag can be duplicated and recreated. Because I would not be burning the only one, I would go ahead and do it.
Who do you think would be a better president: McCain or Obama? I voted for Obama.
Do you think Obama will be killed? I was very worried when he walked his inauguration. I do not think much will happen after his first year. His 5th year will be another nail biting situation.
Should child predators be forced to wear signs identifying themselves? I don't think we should let them back into society if we believe they have not been cured and may recommit their crimes.
Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers? Without judgment we would have no opinions. I welcome differing opinions in a comfortable setting where all ears are open.

Do you wear makeup? sometimes
Would you ever have plastic surgery? Yes. For my eyes.

Hamburger or hot dog? right now, hot dog
If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? pickles
City, beach or country? sub-city

Ocean or pool? Ocean
Whats your favorite song at the moment If I could change the world by Eric Clapton

Favorite restaurant? tea cafes
What is your favorite kind of car? Nissan or VW
Most hated food(s) bland and dry
Most loved food(s)? spicy and green (healthy)
Whats your least fav. chores? dusting, sweeping. I know a funny joke about this question. Get a group of people together and go around in a circle asking this question. Add on the 'why' you dislike the chore. Then when everyone has said their peace give them the twist to the question. The twist is... your answer actually pertains to your view about sex. So if someone said they hated sweeping because there is always more you can sweep, then they hate sex because there is always more sex to be had.
Favorite drink? margaritas. tea.
1. What is more difficult: looking into someones eyes when telling how you feel, or looking into someones eyes when they tell you how they feel? When I'm being told how someone else feels. I have no reservations about my own feelings. I do not believe others really know how they feel.
2. Think of the last time you were angry. Why were you angry? Because someone did not listen to my advice, even though they had asked for it. It seemed more like they wanted my opinion in order to ignore it.
3. You will die in three minutes. Last call? Mom and Dad.
4. If you could do anything OR wish anything, what would it be? To be able to travel for the rest of my life.
5. You can have one of the following two things: trust or love. trust. You cannot have love without trust.
6. You are walking to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss told you if you are late one more time youre fired. Do you save the dog? Yes. Just because I have been a slacker in the past and have brought my own misfortunes to my life does not mean I can neglect the life of a dog or anyone else.
7. Would you or have you ever blackmailed someone? It is hard to remember my younger years, but I think I did. I think it was in self defense though, they were trying to blackmail me somehow. Hard to remember the details. Nothing came from any of it.
8. Think of the last person who you know that died. You have the chance to give them 1 hour of life back, but you have to give one year of your life. Do you do it? The only person I know who died was my family pet, and I would not give a year of my life so that my old pet could come back to a painful life for another hour. He died when he had to and he lived a wonderful life.
9. Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend? I need people who are not like me. I tend to disappear for a couple weeks. And if I had a friend that did that to me, then we probably wouldn't ever find the time to see each other. I need friends who are constantly around, or else the friendship is not that strong.
10. Does sex=love? no
11. Are you old fashioned? Hell no.
12. Would you marry someone if they were unable to have sex? If I loved them, they could do other wonderful things for me.
13. What would be harder for you, to tell someone you love them or that you do not love them back? That I do not love them back.
14. What do you think would be the hardest thing for you to give up? The internet.
15. Romantic love, when was the last time you told someone you loved them? almost a year ago. I'm sure it was just infatuation.
16. If you had to go back in time and change one thing, if you HAD to, even if you have "no regrets" what would you change? I would try to have been more aware of the world and my surroundings when I was younger. My world wasn't so much sheltered as I was not ambitious enough to learn about more of it. I used to think the next town over was hours away. I used to think pop culture was stupid and pointless.
17. Imagine. It is a dark night, you are alone, it is raining outside, you hear someone walking around outside your window. WHO do you wish was there with you? A cat.
18. Would you give a homeless person CPR if they were dying? I do not know CPR. I would immediately call 911 and scream for help.
19. You are holding onto your grandmother's dying hand and the hand of a newborn that you do not know as they hang over the edge of a cliff. You have to let one go to save the other which one would it be? Grandma of course. And I'm pretty sure that all old people feel this way. They have lived their life, the idea of a new life is much more rewarding than the memories of a lived life. More will be changed by that newborn living, rather than my dying grandmother.
20. When and how was the last time you told someone how you REALLY feel? A couple of days ago, to a friend of mine who was enjoying some sci-fi I loved, and thought she would never love.
If You had three months to live:
21. Do you tell anyone or everyone you are going to die? Everyone. I think it would be interesting to see how they treat me after they find out. And of course I would tell my loved ones.
22. What do you do with your remaining days? Finish my bucket list
23. Would you be afraid? I would be afraid the closer I got to the end.
If you were paid 1 million dollars to spend the night in a supposed haunted house, would you do it? yes
If you could shorten your life expectancy by 10 years to becopme more attractive, would you do it? yes, why should I live to be 100? anything over 80 is pushing it.
What was your favorite bedtime story as a child? The brave little toaster, where the wild things are
You're walking down the street, you come across a burning building. A woman says her baby is trapped inside, what would you do? be amazed. Did she call the police? Why doesn't she try to save her own baby? Sure I'll help if I can, but its her damn baby, you'd think she would try her best to save it.
If you could choose the future profession of your son or daughter, would you? Nowadays people live through 3 professions (at the least), I would not feel bad about making them start at a certain profession.
What was your best experience on drugs or alcohol? Alcohol has brought many funny experiences and memories.
What was your worst experience on drugs or alcohol? The bad experience always happens AFTER I was on the alcohol. Never while I'm ON it.
As your walking down the street you find a suitcase full of money sitting next to a parked car, would you take it? If the street seemed deserted and the suitcase looked like it had been there a while, or the car looked busted. Otherwise I may be picking that suitcase up while the owner comes back and that would be awkward.
If you found that a close friend has AIDS, would you still hang out with them? Of course I would. I would be a bit scared though, so I would want to read up on the dangers and issues they may go through.

Do you believe in ghosts, werewolves or vampires? no, no, no
If you could live forever, would you want to? if I could live forever in a healthy state.
If they were to televise a live execution, would you watch it? 'they' who? Probably not, there is no justice in public executions. Only vengence and hate.
If you could be the president of the USA, would you be willing to do it? Not at this point in my life.
If you could choose the sex of your unborn child, would you want to? No. I'm sure I'd suck at raising either sex.
Would you rather live longer or be wealthy? Wealthy. Living long does not appeal to me, dementia, brittle bones, nothing sounds good about that.
How many books do you digest daily? daily?! None. I am working daily on many books. I have probably 3 active books right now. 5 or 6 inactive.
How old will you be when the world ends? apparently 24.
Do ghosts exist, and if yes, where? I don't believe in them, but if I had to explain my idea about ghosts, it would be that energy is lingering.
Which is worse: dating an ex-boyfriend you hate or murder? Umm... MURDER. I could always get out of dating someone I dislike. But murder lasts forever.
