1) What is your favorite kind of music? Favorite artist?
I listen to everything and anything. However, I am a HUGE Meatloaf fan. I grew up listening to Bat Out of Hell because of my parents.
ANDDDD Story Time: In the last GTKY I told you all I went to Scotland when I was in 3rd grade. At this time, the Spice Girls were just coming out in the UK. Because we were there because of my dads work, they assigned one of the workers to be our tour guide, and he had a girl a year younger then I was. She asked if I liked the Spice Girls. Not wanting to look "un-cool" I said of course. We later became pen-pals, and she sent me spice girls stuff. It was thrown in the back of my closet. A year later, the spice girls became huge over here, and I fell in love. I went to their concert and everything. I never got into boy-bands. I was a spice girl.
I always said if they had a reunion concert, I would go. I ended up skipping a college class to buy tickets. But, in the end, my mom told me not to come home, because they just had some bad weather, and had a lot of reports of cars hitting potholes and their airbags deploying. So, I ended up throwing 300 bucks away. The very next weekend was my springbreak. On the drive home, an elderly woman failed to stop at an intersection on the highway, and t-boned me. It completely totaled my car. I still hold a grudge. I told my mom that since I was screwed no matter what, I should have come home to see the spice girls!
But long story short: I LOVE meatloaf, and I still listen to the Spice Girls every now and then.
2) Have you ever sky dived? If you haven't, would you? Nope. But I would. I always wanted to know what it feels like.
3) What is your favorite hobby? Reading, and card-making. I try to sell my cards, but it's obviously not a 'happening' business. But, yay craft shows!
