Perfect Guy: He'd have a sense of humor that'd cheer up rain clouds, his eyes deep with wisdom and light with intellegence, his skin would be tan and soft...perfect for cuddling, he'd have to have muscles so he could protect and reassure me from all the dangers in the world, his lips would have smile wrinkles around them because he appreciates life, he'd love poetry, especially when I read him mine, his voice would have color right were he needed it to make him always seem interesting, he'd have to be slightly emotional so I could tell what he was thinking, he would have strong goals, beliefs, and values passed down from his family but have an open mind as not to judge others, he'd have to be honest if the jeans really did make my butt look big, he'd have to be patient to help me adjust every once and a while, he'd be considerate so he would know when to help me if I had a hard day, he'd be hard working so no matter what we'd always pull through, and he has to believe in God so we can meet again in the fields of heaven
Second Home: Pizza Ranch because I think about it as often as I think about m bookshelves...I'm there more than I sleep...I have people I care about now and would move the world for them
If You Were A Crayon, What Color Would You Be?: White...it's such a mysterious crayon...why do they give it to you? It doesn't mark on white paper...or even show up well on BLACK paper. And if you use it, it gets other colors on it and makes like...brown or pink or light green...then you have to scrape it off to use it again...and it always breaks first but it's the one you use the least...*sigh* The mystery of the white crayon
Wish on the Stars?: It may seem that I'm wishing on the stars when I looking towards the heavens, but really I'm praying to god...I think he can do a lot more than a bunch of balls of colored gas can...
Describe a Dream:I was still in the middle of my senior year in high school and was attending a lecture hall that was only the gym filled with a stage in the middle of the court, surrounded by chairs. I kept feeling ill then someone told me I was pregnant. When I looked down, I did indeed have a large, swollen, pregnant belly. I was extremely ashamed of myself at first. I am a virgin, so how could I possibly be pregnant? Then after a while I got used to the fact...using it as an excuse not to lift boxes at work or if I didn't want to go somewhere. Then everyone kept asking who the dad was and I didn't know. Then I got to work and I realized who it was...I can't tell you who because it's extremely embarassing. But then I woke up when he kissed me.
