26. Would you rather lose your old memories or not be able to make new ones?
Wow, this one is tough. I think if I had to choose I'd rather not be able to make new ones. My Granny passed away in 2005 and I would hate to lose all the memories I have of her. Besides, my memories make me who I am today.
27. Is it possible to know the truth without challenging it first?
Yes. There are still honest people out there who will tell you the truth without hesitation.
28. Has your greatest fear ever come true?
No, and I hope it never does. My greatest fear is spending the rest of my life alone. Even if I never manage to fall in love and get married, I know that I won't be alone.
29. Do you remember that time five years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it matter now?
Five years ago, I failed the bar and lost my job at the Danville DPA office. It was such a hard time to go through. I felt like a failure and I lost a job that truly made me happy. I ended up passing the bar later and getting a job at a different DPA office so in the grand scheme of things, I guess it doesn't matter. I do wonder where my life would be if those things didn't happen but I would have missed out meeting some wonderful people.
30. What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?
On the weekends, my brother and I used to drag all of our stuffed animals into one of our bedrooms (usually mine) and play house. Each animal had their own name, voice, and story. I was the "Mommy" and Clay was the "Daddy." We used to think that if the door was shut, our parents wouldn't be able to hear us but they always did. It was such a happy and simple time in our lives.
31. At what time in your recent past have you felt most passionate and alive?
It's sad...I honestly don't know that I have felt that way.
32. If not now, then when?
I had so much fun my sophomore year of college. I had Chy, Steph, Marlana, and Erika and I was so happy. They made life fun. I loved school, my classes, and feeling "grownup."
33. If you haven't achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?
I really don't know how to answer this question. Is there an approrpriate response?
34. Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had?
No. The best conversations I've ever had involve words.
35. Why do religions that support love cause so many words?
I think it's because each religion is different than the others and people who believe in something tend to think that their beliefs are the true beliefs and try to get others to believe as they do. Religion is something that people feel passionately about and defend their beliefs passionately.
36. Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?
I don't think so. There are shades of gray and I don't think any of us are pure good or pure evil. Good people may do evil things for good reasons and vice versa.
37. If you just won a million dollars, would you quit your job?
If it was a million without having to have half of it taken for taxes, yes. I would pay off my debts and go back to school and be a French professor so I could be able to spend my summers abroad.
38. Would you rather have less work to do or more work that you actually enjoy doing?
Less work to do. I'm lazy at heart.
39. Do you feel like you've lived this day 100 times before?
Yes. I tend to do the same thing on Sundays--laundry, grocery, watching TV.
40. When was the last time you marched in the dark with only the soft glow of an idea that you believed in?
No times that I know of. I know I always have the support of my parents in what I do.
41. If you knew that everyone you knew was going to die tomorrow, who would you visit today?
I would spend time with my relatives. They are so very important to me and I'd want to spend as much time as possible with them.
42. Would you be willing to reduce your life expectancy by 10 years to be extremely attractive or famous?
No. Looks can fade over time and if being famous means that there is a possibility that I could end up like Lindsay Lohan than I'd rather be old and ordinary.
43. What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
Being alive is breathing air and beating hearts. Truly living is enjoying each day as if it is your last.
44. When is it time to stop calculating risks and rewards and just go ahead and do what you know is right?
When you have a safety net to catch you if you fall!
45. If we learn from our mistakes, why are we always so afraid to make a mistake?
Sometimes when we make mistakes we lose something that we can never regain.
46. What would you do differently if you knew no one would judge you?
I would eat whatever I wanted to and not ever worry about how I looked or what others thought of me.
47. When was the last time you noticed the sound of your own breathing?
A few weeks ago when my neighbors were being loud and I put in earplugs.
48. What do you love? Have any of your recent actions openly expressed this love?
I'm starting to love myself and going to the gym and eating healthier shows that I care about myself and love how I am changing!
49. In five years will you remember what you did yesterday? What about the day before that? Or the day before that?
No because I haven't done anything out of the ordinary these past few days.
50. Decisions are being made right now. The question is: are you making them for yourself or letting others make them for you?
I make my own decisions but others do influence me. I ultimately call the shots because I live with the consequences of my actions.
