Favourites

Posted on the 09 October 2012 by Karaevs @KaraEvs

Remember these? Good, because that means you’re about as old as I am. I’m pretty sure I used to do these back in high school when your only form of communication with friends other than the phone was through Hotmail or MSN Messenger, and then again in Facebook “notes” where you would tag people. Sweet Christ, how lame was I?

Anyway, when I saw this posted on Jasmine’s blog, I couldn’t resist filling it out for old times’ sake. Because I’m nostalgic and all.

Here it goes, my favorite …

Clothing brand: I loooove lululemon’s sweaters for their warm and fuzziness and their pants for their comfort. But other than that, I have no brand preference.

Thing(s) to do: Hang out with my daughter and husband, sleep, go for walks on warm days.

Name: I don’t like sharing my favorite names, because they’re generally potential children names, and I hate name stealers, so I’m keeping them to myself

Trait of yours: Grammar nazi, although I’m a horrible proofreader.

Quote of the Moment: “Life is hard; It’s even harder when you’re stupid.” — John Wayne

Family member: Isla, definitely. And then Kyle, obviously. It’s pretty much a tie.

Grade you were/are in: The eleventy-billionth grade. Sheesh.

Color: YELLOW! Or purple. But mostly yellow.

Memory: It’s a toss-up between marrying Kyle and when Isla was finally born. I’d say it’s a tie.

Thing about the opposite sex: His arms and ridiculous ways of making me laugh out loud.

Electronics brand: Ones that don’t crap out after a few days of use.

Gift you got from someone: I’m pretty in love with my Kitchen Aid mixer right now, if that can be considered a gift.

Program on your computer: Photoshop, or Excel for its spreadsheety organzation.

Type of car or truck: I’d loooove a VW Touareg if I ever won the lottery. Love.

Phrase: ”Live, Love, Laugh”

School Subject: PE, and not because it was an excuse to sit on the bench and do nothing, because I rocked PE.

Age you were/are: What? 25 was a pretty good age for me I suppose – Got married, got pregnant, etc.

Teacher: Either my Grade 12 English teacher or my Grade 11/12 math teacher. Or our Foods & Nutrition teacher.

Number: 14

Fruit: Raspberries and strawberries.

Store: Costco! (Does that count as a store?)

Person: It’s again a tie between Isla and Kyle.

Holiday: Christmas – the only holiday I truly decorate for.

Day of the week: The ones where Kyle is off the next day.

Season: Definitely fall. I love the warm days and cooler nights.

Movie: As sappy as it may sound, I love the Notebook. Not for Ryan Gosling or Rachel McAdams (though they are my favourites), but for the love story behind it.
