If you’re really bored what’s your go to place on the internet?

Tumblr. Who doesn’t go to Tumblr?

 

 

A morbid, dark question. A genie appears and tells you that you have a choice. You can either choose to live in solitary confinement in prison for the rest of your life or five people you don’t know and will never hear about instantly  die. Which would you choose and why?

 

Ohh thats tough. The selfish part of me says to kill the five people, but the five people might have significant others, or be a role model to someone else. So, maybe solitary confinement would be better. I could do that instead of having someone else suffer and because I chose to be selfish

 

Lets say you know you will live till 80. Would you give  up two years of your life for one day on the moon?

No. It would be cool, but what would there really be to do on the moon? I would keep my two years.

 

If you could be obscenely wealthy and powerful in any age, time, culture, or country etc…, which would it be? Roman noble?  kate in “titanic” rich? persian king? victorian lord? modern times? and why?

 

I feel like, Titanic times, because money was worth more than. You had more status. Plus fashion was more classic, and more stylish than it is now.

 

All Holden in “The Catcher in the Rye” wants to do is stop kids from falling off a cliff. If you could have any job,assuming all salaries for every job are equal, what would you want to do? why?

 

Stay at home all day *laughs* I wish I could maybe be an artist, or if I had musical talent to become a musician and perform on stage. I’m studying now to become an art teacher, or maybe even that.

 

Android or IOS? What made you choose?

IOS. Apple all day everyday *laughs*. I remember I always wanted a mac kinda thing, but my parents would never get it for me and I finally saved up 2000 and bought my own, and it was a domino effect, I bought an iphone, then an iphone mini.

 

Do you believe in God(s)? A sort of life force you couldn’t actually describe if your life depended on it?  what are your views on the statement “I believe in god but not organized religion”?

 

That’s a complex question. I believe  theres someone out there, and I would consider myself christian even though I’ve never been baptized in any religion per say, but I like to believe theres  a greater good in a person. I feel like i like that statement because everyone does have that role model whether its like a greater being in outer space or a person who they consider as a god, so I think that statement is legit

 

But you would still consider yourself a Christian?

 

Yea

 

Who would you say are the top five best looking celebrities/models?

I cant do that the first one that comes to mind is chris hemsworth, I’m not into actors and actresses like I know who okay so and so played this character or that character, but i couldn’t have a top five. I know for guys its chris hemsworth, and for girls it’s that actress? Dark brown hair Hair…she’s jewish?

 

Mila Kunis?

 

she was in Two Broke Girls? the name will hit me later on. [Kat Dennings]

 

JRR Tolkien, author of the Lord of the Rings, wrote “Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.” Do you agree with capitol punishment? Hitler and the 9/11 terrorists included.

 

As much as I hate, I wouldn’t say hate, but those people were really dislikeful, and they did really wrong, I don’t feel like they should be killed because of what they did. Like I said before I’m kind of a christian so I believe there’s a god who should be in charge of who should die or not, as much as the other person would want them dead, they should maybe be on lockdown, and not really tortured, but be on their own punishment kinda thing,.

 

 

My escapist fantasy is if things are going really badly, I’ll just withdraw all the money I have in my bank account, buy some camping supplies, and go live off the land in Canada. do you ever have escapist fantasies. If so, what are they?

 

Once and a while I think I wanna go on a roadtrip across america and find myself, Or go to upstate New York because I heard you can see the stars really beautifully up there, It’s a completely different atmosphere, or go to California. On and off I think I wanna leave New York and move to California

 

Do you think you’re gonna move to California after you graduate?

Maybe after I’m married, to northern Colorado

 

Would you let a guy pay for you on a date / would you insist on paying for the date? why?

 

It’s funny, I have a boyfriend and whenever we go on a date we get in an argument over who should pay, and It’s like whoever ends up winning gets to pay for it. I guess for the whole chivalry thing it’s kinda cute for the guy to pay on the first date, but at the same time if the girl wants to pay she should be allowed to pay.

 

If you could relive one day, which would it be?

 

France. My whole vacation over there. Especially Versailles we took a double decker train there and it was a cloudy day, but then it cleared up. the palace and the gardens were really breathtaking, so I wouldn’t mind reliving that day all over again
