365 Day Challenge; day 3.

3. What’s the most sensible thing you’ve ever heard someone say?

Good question.

I'm not sure really. Different situations call for different advice or opinions. So one sensible thing wouldn't necessarily be the most sensible for another thing.

365 Day Challenge; day 2.

2. Who do you sometimes compare yourself to?

I don't think there's anyone specific, really. I don't stand in front of the mirror and think "Oh, Pink's boobs look so much better than mine." (just as an example). I mainly compare me to myself. It's a bad habit.

365 Day Challenge, day 1.

I think it would be kind of neat to have a blog post from every single day of the year, to reflect on next year to see how far I've come and such like that. So thus, I stumbled across this 365 day "thought invoking" questionnaire. At the end of the year I'll likely condense multiple posts into a big one to save on space.

Here goes!

1. When was the last time you tried something new?

Last night, actually. I don't usually like games where I have to act things out but I was drinking and playing Partini and ended up getting a bunch of the Mime cards.

Maybe that doesn't count. I dunno lol.

By the way, Happy New Year everyone! I hope the year is everything you want it to be and more.

Holiday Questionnaire, round 8.

Well this is it for the holiday fun! Tomorrow starts the year long set of questions I know you're all dying to read.

50. What words make me feel the best about myself.

Smart, creative, funny. I'm gonna be shallow a second and say pretty or beautiful. Organized, ambitious, reliable.

51. Something I should have said a long time ago.

I've said it, but I should have listened to myself; Never give someone more power over you than you have over yourself.

52. What my last text message says.

To me: "Hi Stephanie!" he says.
From me: Hey stud.

53. What I hate most about myself.

What a loaded question.

54. Biggest turn ons.

Intelligence, knowing what you want and going for it, being reliable, compassion. All I can think of at the moment.

55. What words upset me the most.

Words? I have no idea. There aren't many specific single words that upset me.

56. What I hated the most about school.

The other students. People suck.

Holiday Questionnaire, round 7.

43. Do I like where I am right now.

For the most part, yes. It would be nice to get my career started and whatnot, but overall, yes.

44. What can I hear right now.

The kids being child tornadoes.

45. My relationship with my sibling.

We're good now. We talk and get along. It took a long time though.

46. Who was your first boyfriend.

If I'm recalling correctly, his name was Kyle. We were in grade 9. Our first date was to see The Butterfly Effect. We dated for 3 or 4 months before I broke up with him. Yeah, that was about it.

47. My biggest worry currently.

Currently, it's getting daycare figured out before I start school on the 13th. I have a potential sitter but nothing is set down yet.

48. Something I've wished for repeatedly.

Oh, a bunch of things.

49. My relationship with my parents.

I haven't talked to my dad in over 3 years.

I talk to my mom every day and see her multiple times a week. We're quiet close. Now that I'm an adult and have kids of my own we're more like friends than mother/daughter.

Holiday Questionnaire, round 6.

36. What your dream house would look like.

I've actually got it all mapped out, on grid paper no less.

The downstairs would mainly be the living area, dining room and kitchen. The upstairs would have 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms, one being a master bath. The basement would be finished with a giant living area, bathroom, and guest room.

If I were to live in it today, Ma'am would get the basement bedroom when she turns 13, then Bub would get it when she moves out.

There would be those vines covering one side of the house. A nice big wrap around deck.

I really hope I get to build this house one day.

37. How many kids I want in the future.

Haha, uhm, none. Some days I already think I have two too many. I definitely do not want more.

38. My idea of a perfect date.

We would go somewhere fun and lively. Amusement park, comedy club, the beach, something like that. We would talk because we want to, not just because there's nothing else to do. What happens after that would depend on the stage of the relationship. If it was the first few dates I'd get a kiss, or few, and go home alone. If it was later on, we'd decide what to do from there.

39. What I'm really good at.

I don't know if I'm really good at anything specifically, but I am quite creative. I hear often that an idea I have someone else wouldn't have thought of.

I don't know if this counts, but I believe I'm good at being a friend. I listen, offer advice, support, or whatever the situation calls for. I don't go blabbing someone's problems around just for fun.

40. My most traumatic experience.

I'm going to skip this one.

41. Where I would like to live.

Short term (as in not long at a time), everywhere. I want to back pack around Europe and see everything.

Long term (as in my forever home), back in Ontario somewhere. Maybe the country.

42. The nicest thing anyone's ever said to me.

I can't really pinpoint one thing because at times down the line someone could have said just the right thing in that moment.
