42. What was your undergraduate major, and was it always that or did you switch? I started out as a bio-chemistry major. Mainly because I put it on my SAT's becasue I liked science and figured any school with that major would be good. Then I considered for a while double majoring in Industrial Art/ Graphic Art, but unfortunatly dumped that idea becasue you needed a portfolio to get admitted to that major and I didn't have one at the time. Then I was thinking about Architecture, but they didn't have that major, so I opted for Civil Engineering in lieu of that.
43. Worst physical pain you've been in? It's a toss up between right before I had my gall bladder removed and Crohn's cramping.
44. Who's your best friend? That's a hard one, I'd have to make it a tie between my boyfriend and another friend.
45. Was high school good? Why (not)? Yes and no. Marching band was fun, drumline was cool too. Though H.S. wasn't as bad as Jr.High, I'm still glad I only have to go through that once.
46. What kinds of music do you like best? Get specific, if you can. If I was on a desert isle and could only listen to one genre it would have to be jazz.
47. Last three CDs you bought: Cheryl Crow-Wildflowers (actually a gift from my boyfriend), Joss Stone-Mind, Body & Soul and Gwen Stephani-Love, Angel Music, Baby
48. And conversely, what kinds of music would you rather never hear? 50 cent. In my opinion he's the Forest Gump of the music world, he's so stupid I can't imagine why people like him. THe funniest thing I've seen lately was that a vitamin water had him in their ad reading the Wall Street Journal.

50. What's something other people like that you just can't get into? Maddox...I just don't understand how some dork from Utah can have such a following of male adolescent wannabees.
51. When you want to look good, what do you wear? Sparkles and stardust.
52. When your heart breaks, how do you put it back together? With a generous application of time.
53. Should the following be exterminated: white briefs: Do yo umean tighty whities, then yes. blue eyeshadow: Yes, it must die! It should have stayed in teh 70's where it came from. pants that create the muffin-top look on women: Just get pants that fit already. flip flops in the office: If I could, I would.
54. Were you a Boy/Girl Scout? I was a Girl Scout up until I found out that the leaders daughter was trying to get every badge ther ever was or wil be. That's way too much not-fun in my book. That and how much Girl Scouts sucked. Boy Scouts got to go climb stuff and tie cool knots and shoot arrows and stuff. In Girl Scouts I learned how to make an egg glaze to go on bear shaped bread to make it look shiney and how to make lanyards and paste birdseed on pinecones with peanutbutter and sell cookies at my parents work. In other words, I had a better "scouting" experience just going camping with my dad than I ever did with that organization.
55. Can you swim? Like a fish. Backwards.
56. Tell me your guilty pleasures: song: anything by No Doubt book: books by Laurell Hamilton movie: The Wedding Planner with JLo food: Sushi other: art supplies

58. What's the best present you've received in the past five years? A Hug.
59. Do you have a favorite: Painter: No more than a favorite star in the sky..ok maybe Monet. Sculptor: Rodan Photographer: I'd go wtih my sister Tiana Writer (fiction): Laurell Hamilton Writer (science fiction/fantasy): Right now I'm reading Terry Brooks Poet: Emily Dickenson Writer (nonfiction): I don't know, does Oprah count, cause I'm sure she'd kick ass in any catagory.
60. You're in a strange city for the weekend. What will you do while you're there? Drive to the center of town and see what there is to see, then go take a nap.
61. Are you thrifty? Depends what you mean by thrifty. Am I cheap? no. Do I run up my credit card on shopping spree's? no. Quality is normally what I look for first, followed by monetary value. If I need a watch I'd much rather buy the more expensive one that I like and that will last rather than something chintzy, cheap and not quite my style.
62. You bought tickets for a cultural event. What are you going to see? A live concert featuring Sheryl Crow, No Doubt, Seal and Sting.
63. What's something you're hanging onto that you don't need anymore? the reciepts in my wallet. This question reminds me to shred them when I get home.

Same here, though I blame it on my parents smoking. I am the tallest in the family at 5'7" however.

That is why I like to call it M-T-Vision... Long ago the M in MTV actually meant music, but no more.
