The experiences and exploits of a college grad trying to make it in the "real world:" leaving school and friends in New England, moving south, and living with her boyfriend. Watch as I pretend to be an adult.
What five CDs could you have in constant rotation in your car (if you had to)? 1) Nirvana, "Unplugged in New York" 2) Yo Yo Ma, "Inspired by Bach" 3) Miles Davis, "Kind of Blue" 4) Incubus, "Make Yourself" 5) A poppy/upbeat punky mix- Greenday, GC, FOW, Saves the Day, etc. I wouldn't be thrilled, but I wouldn't go insane either, I think.
If you had to re-read five books, what would they be? 1) Dostoevsky, "Crime and Punishment" 2) Heinlein, "Stranger in a Strange Land" 3) Robbins, "Jitterbug Perfume" or "Fierce Invalids" 4) Gabriel Garcia Marquez, "100 Years of Solitude" 5) Gaarder, "The Solitaire Myster"
Five favorite authors? Ok, that's impossible. I can give you preferred authors from some genres, maybe... 1) Fantasy: Raymond E. Feist, Anne McAffrey, Kate Elliot 2) For Social Commentary: Voltaire, Saki (HH Munro) 3) For Mystery: Patricia Cornwall 4) For Sci Fi: Heinlein, Orson Scott Card, Anne McAffrey 5) For Non-English Lit: Dostoevsky, Gogol, Nabokov, Bulgokov (Tolstoy can go jump in a lake, Gaarder, Garcia Marquez, Isabel Allende...ok, I don't have enough room. I'm done with the question now.
Five places you want to visit? 1) Thailand 2) Australia (again) 3) Amsterdam 4) Greece 5) Italy
Five likes? in no particular order... 1) Warm weather 2) My boyfriend 3) My family and friends 4) My ipod! 5) Cute spring shoes
Five dislikes? 1) Our current government 2) Anti-gay marriage laws 3) Cigarette smoke- yes, I've indulged in the occasional cancer stick. It's different when you're smelling it on someone else. 4) Being 4 hours away from Elija 5) Greesy "Americana" restaurants, like Applebees, Ruby Tuesdays, etc. I worked in one all last semester- never again. Never again.
Two truths and a lie? 1) I've driven through every state on the east and west coast, but haven't been anywhere in the middle. 2) I've (badly) chipped a tooth chugging Cap'n Morgans. 3) I take a perverse pleasure in making the men in my life watch "chick" shows like SATC, Charmed, etc. Heh heh heh. You will watch it and you will like it.
