1. Are you named after
anyone? Uhmm..yes, and no, technically no. My dad is the third for his name (W.
Chris) and naturally one of my brothers is the fourth. But the rest of my
siblings and I just have a middle name with “Chris” in it. Mine, for example,
is Christine. So yeah kind of, but not really.
2. When was the last
time you cried? Hmm. I’m not much of a crier, so honestly I don’t remember.
3. Do you have kids?
No.
4. If you were another
person, would you be a friend of yourself? I feel like that’s kind of an odd
question, because you’ll either sound conceded or self-deprecating. But sure
why not. Not within like the first two hours of me waking up though, just
saying.
5. Do you use sarcasm
a lot? ALL. THE. TIME. To the point where sometimes my friends think I’m being
sarcastic when I’m not (because me not being sarcastic happens so rarely). And
then something like, we get off at the wrong exit when I’m giving them serious
directions, so they yell at me for not warning them I wasn’t being sarcastic
(true story).
6. Will you ever
bungee-jump? If it was over water then yeah, probably. Other than that no way!
7. What’s your
favorite cereal? FRUITY PEBBLES. It’s a problem.
8. What’s the first
thing you notice about people? Depends… If you’re talking like cute boys, height;
for sure. Just people in general…I’m not
sure. I’m only 5’2, so I’m usually not eye level with people to notice things
about their face unless I’m specifically focusing on it. For that reason I’d
say body language and/or the way they are dressed. You can tell a lot about how
people want to convey themselves through nonverbal cues.
9. What is your eye
color? Brown.
10. Scary movie or
happy endings? Well I love comedies, so happy endings I suppose.
11. Favorite smells? I
like the smell of outside during seasons, particularly fall and winter…if that makes
sense. Also a dance studio, it smells like home. J
12. Summer or winter?
Winter. For sure. I hate being too hot, however you can bundle up in the cold.
Plus, winter fashion is better, snow is beautiful, nutcracker season, skiing,
ice skating, Christmas lights. Okay, I’ll stop now. But yeah, winter.
13. Computer or
television? Computer. I can multitask on the computer, I feel lazy just staring
at the tv without doing anything else. …I’m bad at being unproductive.
14. What’s the
furthest you’ve ever been from home? Uhm I guess the Virgin islands when I was
like 9...Maybe. I think? …Moving on.
15. Do you have any
special talents? I was a dancer (ballet and lyrical) for 14 years (ages 2-16).
I still dance now, but just for fun and because it’s how I express myself best;
a passion you know. I’m not very good any more in the realm of the dance world;
injuries, time off, and being 20 something makes my body too old to do most
things I used to be able to. But compared to the general population, yeah dance
is my special talent.
16. Where were you
born? ‘Merica .
17. What are your
hobbies? Dance, Learning French and all things French, Skiing, Writing,
Listening to music, Watching Gilmore Girls and Gossip Girl, Environmental/Wildlife
conservation efforts, Seeing musicals, Running, Making collages out of magazine
pages, Organizing anything and everything, Reading, Researching nutrition and fitness topics, Hanging out with
friends.
18. Do you have any
pets? No. I wish! But I’m still in college, too much moving around. I want a
dog though!
19. Favorite movie?
Like I said before, I’m really bad at being unproductive so sitting and
watching movies is a challenge for me. But there are some I can sit through
because I love them so much; Center stage (a cult favorite of ballerinas,
present and former, the world over), La Haine, Intouchables, Remember the
Titans, First Position (another ballet movie), Friends with benefits, MEAN
GIRLS (typical white girl status), Devil Wears Prada, The Hangover, and The
Wild Thornberry’s Movie (judge me).
20. Do you have any
siblings? Yes… 5 brothers. 2 older, 3 younger.
21. What do you want
to be when you grow up? Happy. If I were to sum it up in one word, finding
happiness in my life however that may come about is my biggest goal when I grow
up. However career wise, I have known since I was five I want to work in
wildlife conservation, I’ve always hoped to work in direct contact with the
animals. But now that I’m getting closer to really starting my career, I’m
seeing that doing my part might mean working in ad campaigns for an
organization spreading the message or something like that; and I’m coming to
terms with that. I have always liked creative thinking, and idea pitching with
teams; and I’m rather good at getting a point across, so it could be great to
be involved on that end. As long as I’m happy and working for the cause, I’m
game!
Okay so I guess that’s
it! I hope you enjoyed getting to know me a bit more. Feel free to leave a
response with your answers to the questions. I’d love to learn something new about you all
as well!
Until next time, In
Omnia!
