100 Questions

I found this questionnaire and decided why not. If you're bored, fill it out for yourself too!


1. What is your name and age?
Brittany, 22

2. What's your favorite color?
Green!

3. What languages can you speak?
English obviously. Spanish with near fluency (7 years of it and a minor to boot), some Japanese (enough to get by), and a little bit of Irish Gaelic.

4. If you can live in any time period and place besides the present and where you live now, what would it be?
Paris during the Impressionist Art era. Everything about it is so bohemian.

5. What's your favorite book of all time?
I have lots, but I'm probably going to go with American Gods by Neil Gaiman. I love his work and mythology, and what better book than that.

Probably my explosive anger.

10. What's the weirdest thing about you?
Well, lots of things. I'll go with two. I'm 22 years old and every night I sleep with a stuffed tiger (named Shawn) that Sean gave me when I was in the hospital at 19. The other thing, I hallucinate a lot. Not just visual hallucinations, but auditory and tactile.

11. What are some of your hobbies?
I have lots! I like working with my hands a lot. Drawing, writing, painting, watercolor, origami, crochet, video games, studying languages, reading, macrame, and 3D art.

12. What was the worst day of your life?
I guess I have two again. The first was the day I found out my dad was leaving us, and he told me he had never loved me. The second was around my third day in the hospital during a week-long stay with a kidney infection. By that point I was literally on my deathbed and seriously thought I was going to die.

Mummies.

15. Chocolate or vanilla?
Pfft, chocolate.

16. Day or night?
Night, I'm a total night owl.

Silver, gold looks tacky on pasty people like me in my opinion.

I'm a registered Democrat, though both parties are pretty off their rockers right now.

19. Cake or pie?
Pie! Blackberry pie is the best.

20. Where do you live?
West (by god) Virginia, in a town about an hour away from Pittsburgh.

21. Do you like where you live?
I'm not crazy about the town itself, I prefer the town about 20 minutes away that I plan moving to. I love West Virginia, though, and would never leave it unless the United States really does go insane and I have to move to Norway.

22. What places would you like to visit?
Definitely Ireland, especially Dublin and the Gaeltacht. I'd also love to visit the UK, but especially Scotland. I'd also like to visit Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Norway, Denmark, Argentina, Mexico (the Yucatan Peninsula especially), Spain, Germany, and Papua New Guinea.

23. What's your education level?
After one more semester I'll have a Bachelor's of Science in Graphic Design and Fine Arts with a minor in Spanish.

24. Do you believe in God?
Not in the same sense most people believe in a god.

Looking out the window when we lived in South Carolina... I think I was 3. The curtains were white and blowing around me and I thought they were friendly ghosts.


26. What's your favorite memory?
Meeting Sean. I was in my second day of Political Science 101 at WVU in my freshman year and a cute guy rushed to sit beside me. I noticed his shirt (Johnny the Homicidal Maniac) and had an urge to strike up a conversation with him, which really never happens with me. He started first though. Turns out he lived right above me in the dorms... exact same room, just one floor up. We've been together 4 1/2 years now.


27. What's your scariest memory?
Almost being stabbed along with my mom in our own back yard by a loony. That and my first car wreck (T-boned a guy going 40, my fault, and luckily didn't hurt him), along with having a seizure about a year ago. The seizure was scary because I had no idea what happened to me.


28. What's your favorite drink?
If we're talking general, Diet Dr. Pepper (which sucks because I'm trying to give up pop). If we're talking alcoholic, Irish trash can or Dr. Pepper and rum.

Well, I have lots. Food is pretty grand. I'll either go with the shrimp fajitas from Mi Pueblo or squid sushi.


30. If zombies were to attack and destroy the world, how long would you survive?
I'd like to think a good long while... I've seen a lot of horror movies and have read The Zombie Survival Guide.


31. What's your favorite animal?
I have so many... I love animals. Tigers, okapi, timber wolves, sea turtles, cuttlefish (more like cuddlefish), giraffes, ball pythons, monitors, pigs, blue whales.


32. Are you a dog person or a cat person?
Definitely dog person.

Atlantic City, New Jersey

37. What is your favorite musician that you're ashamed to admit you like?
Lady Gaga.


38. What's your most embarrassing moment?
I was walking down the stairs during high school, reading my fourth rejection letter from the National Honor Society (I didn't get in because I didn't play a sport, my 4.0 GPA and AP classes didn't matter), when I missed a step and fell in front of 30 spectators.


39. What was your best subject in school?
English. I loved the writing, I loved the novels we read, and I'm a grammar Nazi.
