50 Completely Random Questions People Rarely Ask Tag:

1. What’s your favorite candle scent? Red Apple Wreath - Yankee Candle. It's perfectly Autumnal and always goes on half price sale after Christmas. I have far too many versions of it

2. What female celebrity do you wish you were related to? Probably Maya Rudolph because she's a shameless weirdo like me

3. What male celebrity do you wish was your brother? Probably Peter Kay. I feel like he would be easy to open up to. And he would make awkward family events so much more bearable

4. What’s your favorite thing about marriage? (And if you’re not married, what’s your favorite thing about being single?) Security. Safety. I didn't expect it to feel any different because we had been living together for a while but something about the actual marriage made me feel protected and comfortable. Also because its a same-sex marriage it's a lot nicer to say my wife than my fiancée, because i would wonder if they assume my fiancée is male

13. Have you read any of the Harry Potter, Hunger Games or Twilight series? I got into the Harry Potter books in 1998 and am still in love with the series. I went to the midnight release for the last book. I watched all of the films in the opening week and vividly remember that the cinema i saw the first film at in 2001 had a Harry Potter themed sweet shop. I have jewellery, clothing, books, dvds, wands, other collectibles. I read the books with my mum when i was younger and watched all of the films in the cinema with her. she had her own HP merch. My wife also loves Harry Potter. We have been to see Cursed Child twice and have been to the Studio Tour 3 (or 4?) times. We had a Harry Potter themed wedding which was absolutely perfect. Hunger Games was something i avoided reading until the first film was coming out, and then absolutely loved the first 2 books (3rd one got too political for me) and the films are still some of my favourites for costume and set design. I read the twilight books after my best friend recommended them to me. We all actually read them as part of our sisterhood club. I went to blackpool to watch the first film in the cinema with my best friend. I watched the last one at midnight with my wife and one of the girls from the sisterhood who is one of the biggest twilight fans i know still. she has behind the scenes books and dvds and has re read the books that much that the spines are just gone. my mum was also a big twilight fan and would watch them any time they were on tv. i watched a few at the cinema with her, always her choice. she hadnt seen hunger games at the time of them being released but we did watch them all with her a few years ago

She watched it 3 times in the cinema when it first came out. we watched it with her when it was released in imax on an anniversary. she had behind the scenes books, a few versions of the vhs and dvds, playing cards. her love for it made me love it

It's your SENIOR year of high school! The longer ago it was, the more fun the answers will be!

Class of 2003 1. Did you know your spouse? i don’t have a spouse. but given the pool of folks that i still communicate with from high school i’d say there is pretty much 0% chance that i knew my spouse in high school. that’s not to be derogatory to this pool of people at all, just to say i’m pretty sure none of them will ever be my spouse haha. 2. Did you carpool? Yup, cause out school didn’t have its own bus routes. we lived outside the vicinity to grab a bus.

3. What kind of car did u have? a bright yellow ‘73 volkswagen super beetle, haha

4. It's Friday night where did you go? most likely and most to my liking i was spending friday night alone in my bedroom, tinkering with old computers or drawing or writing and listening to music. maybe playing video games. 5. What kind of job did you have? i had a summer job at a pool snack bar, haha. i also did a ot of mural painting back then. i remember painting winnie the poo scenes on many walls for people’s kids. 6. Were you a party animal? no. well, maybe in my own way. i did go to anime cons after all.

7. Were you considered popular? hahahaha, uh. no? maybe in some weird cryptic way. but our school was different and i don’t know if there really was one single popular clique. there were many groups of friends and people were cool to each other. i was bulled by some people whom i considered to be friends, which sucks. but whatever. 8. Were you in band/choir? there wasn’t a band at my high school, and i dont think there was choir either. there was a voice training department but i was not part of that. i was in the visual arts department. i’m pretty sure there were extra-curricular groups like jazz band and acapella but i never participated.

9. Were you a nerd? well i suppose you could say that.

10. Did you get suspended or expelled? i don’t remember any specific occurrence of this. 11. Can you sing the fight song? the what?

12. Where did you go to lunch? a lot of times i would eat in the painting studios.

13. Where was your high school? towson MD

14. What was your mascot? wildcats i think.

15. If you could go back and do it over again, would you? I’d rather not, but i do sometimes wonder how different things would have gone if the person i am now was in that situation again. i wonder what a more experienced version of me would have done with the bullying and manipulation, for one. i wonder what i would have done with my college decisions, etc.

16. Did you have fun at prom? i didn’t ...really... go? i didn’t buy a ticket. me and some other friends got ugly 80′s dresses from thrift stores and walked around downtown baltyimore. we crashed the prom late in the evening without tickets but we didn’t stay long. it was a good night i’d say.

17. Do you still talk to the person you went to the prom with? i don’t really talk to those friends anymore, though i am connected to them vaguely through social media. at most i know they are doing alright!

18. Are you planning on going to your reunion? uh, no.

19. Are you still in contact with people from high school? a few people but not very many.

20. Did you skip school/class? Yes, a lot. But i was pretty good at getting away with it. Mostly I would attend school on time, and sneak out early if I had the chance. it was easy since i had my own car and as a quiet, responsible student I could slip under the radar of teachers. I don’t think I ever got in trouble for cutting school even though i did it A LOT, haha.maybe the teachers knew and didnt rat me our cause i was doing well in the classes. i guess i will never kn0w.

Copy and paste - Let's hear yours.
