      Two expressions I use, and often times together: "dude" and "you know".

      Classy as it is, the strangest item I have in my purse as a condom that reads: "Want to see Big Ben?" In my defense, it's a gag gift for a friend.

      This is difficult for me, I obviously haven't watched television while I've been in England, and even when I was home, I was primarily watching reality television...sad to admit. This reference is going to be a bit dated, but I'd have to say Chuck Bartowski. That's who I'd want to trade lives with.

      He's such a genius character. He's awkward and endearing, but despite that, he manages to be a kickass spy. Maybe I'm biased because I love Zachary Levi.

      You asked this before my birthday, and I'm just now responding about a month after my birthday. I'm sorry.

      At the time of my birthday, I was wanting to go home and celebrate with my family. That's all I truly wanted. Now, I'd probably just get myself a new laptop...or a new puppy, lol.

      Initially I thought this was a difficult question, but then when I stopped to think about it, the answer came to me rather easily.

      While I do love writing, and it's been an aspiration of mine for as long as I can remember to be published, I'd rather have something be turned into a film. Which story I'd like for that to happen to is a more difficult decision. There are a lot of stories/ideas I've had that I haven't had the opportunity to share/put much time into. Of the stories I've posted, I'd have to say Relapse.

      I feel like a film portrayal of the story line would be more effective in revealing everything than my writing is. I have a very detailed plan in my head, but when I go to write, I'm never able to accurately bring it to fruition.

      Plus, let's face it, some of the scenes in Relapse would be much better with a visual. ;)

      I'm responding to this super late, I know. I've had to put a lot (A LOT) of thought into this.

      Title: That's What She Said.
      Rating: R. Mainly for language, and let's face it, my life is full of inappropriate people.
      Genre: Comedy, for the most part. Definitely a bit of drama.
      Tag line: They're not just innuendos slipping from her lips.

      Reason being, I tend to play off a lot of my emotions with humor. With everything I say, whether I'm making a joke of it or not, there's often an underlying truth that tends to be overlooked by everyone else.

      The middle of the ocean. Ima freaking mermaid.

      No, but really, I was born in Honolulu.

      I never had an imaginary friend when I was younger. I know my brother did though. His name was Mikey.

      The thing I vividly remember most about "Mikey" was how convinced my brother was that the two of them had gone to Alaska. I still make fun of him for it to this day.

      (This has been asked...by me.)

      Recently I haven't been reading the features stories. However, some of the stories featured at this moment, I've already been reading. The features stories haven't been changed in a while though, I know that much.

      Thursday night. I hung out with a boy I've been talking to and it was fun. I didn't end up getting home until around two in the morning.

      The stories I'm focusing on right now are:

      Too Close.

      The actual summary for this story: "They say when you die, your life flashes before your eyes. When I lost my life two years ago, the only thing flashing before my eyes was the future. That’s why I’m back to protect the one man responsible for my death."

      Obviously this started as a Jonas story - given its story line, I decided to make it original fiction.
      There's been confusion about what this story is actually about, ha. It's not a paranormal story by any means. It's more...action?

      The other story (which is probably the most personal story I've started writing), is Charmed Semblance.

      The actual summary for it is: "All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put Taryn together again."

      The basic concept is that the main character (Taryn) is from a family that everyone thinks is perfect. Everyone believes that they're all super close - her parents are very doting and supportive and she and her brother are best friends. However things are completely different behind closed doors and you see the truth come to fruition when Taryn finally acknowledges it.

      I would probably pick this past Valentine's Day.

      It was one of the few days I actually went to all my classes and didn't mind it. As soon as my last class ended (which was creative writing) we immediately headed down to my house to start getting ready for the Hot Chelle Rae concert later that night because I live on the outskirts of Denver.

      The concert itself was amazing all on its own. Hot Chelle Rae are incredible live performers. After the concert was over we had to drive all the way back to campus (because we had classes the next day) at one o'clock in the morning. The roads were dead. We were blasting the album and singing along with all the songs, still reeling off the post-concert high.

      I didn't sleep that night and ended up missing my first class the next morning but it was one of my favorite nights. Whenever I hear "And in that moment, I swear we were infinite" I think of that night.

      I have four dogs, ha. Usually I only post pictures of my shibas (because they're a lot more photogenic, and I play favorites).

      These are mine.

      But I posted a few pictures of the dogs I'm watching for my neighbors.

    20. Karissa

      Depends on the secret. If it's not one of my two best friends that I'm telling, it's my brother.
