Being an offhand comment, I don't think she understands nearly how much that meant to me; especially since it was when we were talking about the chick that constantly gets hit on at work, and has size ZZ boobs. I don't know why, but that simple statement really made my day, and then some.

and now it's time for...

( The Friday Five/Six! )thefridayfive

...but I'll forget if I wait till tomorrow.

1. What were some of the smells and tastes of your childhood? Um. BonneBell lip balms, I loved them so hardcore; I even had that sweet keychain so that you could have like 3 of them attached to your belt. Also, the smell of peanut butter blossom cookies (IDK if that's the universal name, but the kind with the peanut butter cookies rolled in sugar, topped with a Hershey kiss). We've baked them every year for thanksgiving and christmas, for as long as I can remember.
2. What did you have as a child that you do not think children today have? Decent fandoms. The cartoons today are shit...look how they're being revived! And not just as t-shirts for kids of my age, but they're actually being re-made for actual kids.
3. What elementary grade was your favorite? 3rd grade, hands down. I had the coolest teacher in the school. She would read us bits from the Narnia books every friday, and we'd have these 'auctions' once a week. We would get little coupons for certain things throughout the week, and then we could bid on candy and stuff. We also made a 'fruit-cup factory.' It was srsly like a company; some kids were in charge of advertising, that sort of thing. Then we had to assemble/deliver them at the end of the period; that night we had an overnight at the school library in celebration. It was kick-ass at the time.
4. What summer do you remember the best as a child? Contrary to Sarah Dessen books, I don't really feel like my life was measured in Summers. I don't really remember them well at all, except for maybe some events. Namely the Spree; a small fair/carnival for the city.
5. What one piece of advice would you give to your younger self, and at what age? I would try to tell myself to grow out of my shell and be more outgoing; I feel like I missed out on a lot during my lifetime because I wasn't outgoing enough to try things, or to make friends, that sort of thing.

(ps thanks Lizzie for the song! I really love it!)

I was lame and forgot to do it last week. D:

1. What's your favourite TV network? Probably Comedy Central or Food Network, or one of the 'nerdy' channels like Discovery. Or Spike, cause of the massive CSI love. Fox wins for having House and LOST, but I don't watch it regularly.
2. If you could create your own channel, what would it be? Maybe a music video station that actually plays music. Good music. And not sell out (I'm looking at you, FUSE). I dunno, I can't imagine another network, we have like 8772544234
3. What TV show did you watch as a child, that you wish they would bring back? POPPLES FTW! Other than that, it seems that they've brought back all of them...everything from My Little Ponies to Sister Sister...xD
4. What show have you always hated, and wonder why they ever made such a dumb show? Almost every reality show, ever. The Caveman show. CSI spinoffs. (Miami, New York...)
5. What TV show's seasons would you buy on DVD? Um,I do end up buying/renting all the ones I want...so...um...I'm confused.

1. What's one of the nicest things a friend has ever done for you? Scheduling a surprise birthday party for me for my 18th!

2. What's one of the nicest things a stranger has ever done for you? At work, I accidentally gave a guy an extra $5, and he handed it back instead of pocketing it!

3. What is a trait in another person that you instantly admire, and that draws you to them? Confidence; that ability to just seem calm and relaxed no matter the situation.

4. What is a trait in another person that instantly repels you, and prevents you from forming a close relationship with them? When they seem snooty and conceited, as if they're deigning to be kind to you.

5. Time to vent: tell us about something rotten someone has done to you. Convinced me that we should be together, then ditched me at prom and then lied to me about cheating.

1. Whats harder to live without, chocolate or alchohol? Chocolate. I have never drank before...ahaha.
2. Does the colour yellow remind you of anything?Lemons, flowers. Nothing specific.
3. Who most annoyed you last week?A certain someone of a certain community that I'm on that I shall not name because I don't want drama to spread.
4. Do you have a cutesy romantic nickname for your partner (or previous partners)? Nothing really, besides silly variations of their real name. I don't think we were together long enough for that.
5. What is your favourite Stephen King movie? I'm full of fail, and haven't seen any. DDD:
