I am soooooo behind on these! Reminds me of the last year in collage * super procrastination *. Onward~!
3/7: "How has SG changed your life?"
SG has truly taught me how to value myself and others more. Not to say that I haven't, but before I wasn't so nice...well, I think "open-minded" is a better term. I used to judge others because I didn't get what they were doing or wearing or whatever. SG has helped me love being myself, but it also taught me to love others for being themselves, too. This occurred through getting out of my small bubble and meeting other girls. I have more male than female friends due to my interests and I did have a couple of close young lady friends. But, I just get along w/ guys easier. When I was young, I couldn't really click w/ any other girls. I found it somewhat difficult because my little ears often heard gossip. Now, I get really excited when I think of what it would be like to hang out w/ other like-minded ladies. I enjoy the community and it's made me feel so welcome. I had dark times when I felt fucked up and that things were my fault. Through learning to be myself, I learned finding love in others.
3/14: "Tell us about your first tattoo"
I got my first tattoo when I turned 18 in Pearl Harbor, Hawai'i. I always told my parents that when I turn 18 I am getting a tattoo! Both my mom and dad already had 2 tattoos each, so it was my turn lol. My tattoo is of a symbol that I drew and connected really strongly with during high school. It's a heart w/ half of it good and the other evil...basically stating that everything has a good and bad side to it. I felt this way during some hard times and found myself feeling dark thoughts and emotions. But, it's how we control our alter-egos. The kanji in the middle is "kokoro" [ 心 ] which means heart or spirit or love.
3/21: "What was the best day of your life?"
This is a tough question for me to answer. I just find that there are a lot of days in my life that I enjoyed a lot. My college graduation was a wonderful day. Walking towards the front to grab a roll of paper felt so damn great lol. I just really felt a sense of accomplishment --- there were so many times where I wanted to just quit school. UGH. The cap to my gown kept slipping, which looked funny on the projection screen they had during the ceremony.
Another is the first Valentine's Day that my bf and I had at the Fairmont Chicago in 2010. We never were really into celebrating it, but nonetheless would go to dinner if anything. But the suite we had that year was really nice and modern, but classy!! I never had been to a hotel room like that and it was a surprise. Eeeee. (^^) A friend of ours who worked at the Fairmont back then helped the beau out. It was an awesome stay. <3

3/28: "What is the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to you?"
Oooooh yeah, I would have to say that one time I blacked out at a party and then puked my guts out for about an hour. (o o) Lol...it's just so uncomfortable and embarrassing in public. I can deal w/ it all day in my private bathroom. And no photo for this one like the others above lol. (>,<)
