Do you like rainy days or snowy winter days more?
Snowy days if I get to stay indoors. If I have to be out in it, I like the rain. Actually, being out in the rain often makes me laugh-out-loud happy; I don’t know why.
Tell me about something you really regret?
Joining the masses in being mean to classmates in middle school. I don’t even think it occurred to me that the rumors I heard and spread probably weren’t true.
Tell me about your favorite music?
My favorite singer is Collin Raye as I love his voice. My favorite band is Maroon 5 (I’m surprised my copy of “Songs about Jane” still works), though I wish their lyrics on their latest CD were cleaner. I love the goofy play-on-words lyrics to Barenaked Ladies’ songs. I tend to like pop-y stuff and have a recent obsession with the music of Disney stars Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato. My favorite worship music is Sovereign Grace’s “Sons and Daughters” CD.
What is something or someone you miss the most from childhood?
Being a part of a close family…doing things together and having people around to talk to. Not that I don’t love my independence now, but I miss that.
Are you the kind of person that you would want to have as a friend?
Absolutely not. I tend not to like people like myself (and they tend not to like me). We can be acquaintances, but will likely never be good friends.
You and Emma would get along perfectly…she LOVES Selena and Demi! :-)
Jacki: Yeah, that makes me feel more grown up. =)
If that’s the worst regret you have in middle school, then you got out pretty good! :) haha!!!
I feel you too on the closeness of a family being younger. Its just different when you grow up… I never really thought of that before…
Very thoughtful post.
Fascinating answer about being your own friend… I always figured I would like “me” but you have made me think. Maybe not. Perhaps my quirks would annoy me!

I would choose snow over rain, any day. The last question is fascinating. I can’t imagine what it would be like to meet someone just like me… I imagine the conversation would get very loud!
I have similar regrets. I wish that I had stood up for those that needed it. I even wish that I had been confident enough to stand up for myself.
Fun questions and answers! I have so many times wished I could go back to junior high and treat everyone kindly and with respect. There was one guy in particular who I was horrible to and I always wonder if he turned out okay or if all our meanness messed him up for life. It’s not a fun regret to live with.
I love the same type of music! great minds think alike. :)
I find it interesting that you wouldn’t want to be your friend. What would you change about yourself that WOULD make you want to be friendly with yourself. I think I just confused myself with that question. lol
Mrs. Mouthy: No it’s not. It’s amazing how cruel your peers can be…and how much that can affect you.
Rhondalue: If I was less prideful and know-it-all, maybe I’d want to be friends with myself. But it’s actually a personality thing…people like me usually don’t like people like themselves.
