280. What's you favourite Christmas tradition? And what tradition would you like to start? (Thank you J).
I don't really think we have a specific tradition? I mean, there's a lot of stuff that we do each year, but there's nothing really that's special that I would say is "my family's tradition". I guess a tradition of ours is you get to open your stocking before breakfast, but then the family opens all the gifts together after breakfast. I like that we watch each other open presents and see what everyone got, rather than a mad dash to open everything as quickly as possible.
A tradition I would like to start would probably be making a home-made gingerbread house, which I started last year. That's something I'd like to keep doing.

J, can I just say that every time I see that you've commented or sent me something, I get so happy. You make me smile.
Hank Green understands my pain. Honestly, I love the Green brothers more and more with every video they make.
101. Does talking about sex make you uncomfortable?
When talking about it in the medical sense, it doesn't really. But when it's all hot-love-making, then yeah, that makes me uncomfortable.

Roommate
The other girl on my floor, who from here on out will be referred to as A, who has no roommate, was saying that our don came up to her and was asking if she would mind if another girl on our floor moved in with her. Apparently the two girls aren't getting along very well. A said no. So I'm guessing that sometime in the near future, our don will be asking me if I wouldn't mind. I don't want another roommate though. I just got used to not having one. So if she does ask, I'm going to say no. At least that's what I tell myself. I'll probably actually say that I would prefer not to, but if there were no other options for her, I would do it. I've been thinking about how I could potentially rearrange the furniture. A has moved the two beds so that they're beside each other. I was about to do that, until I realized I don't have anything to cover the other bed with, and I don't want to be lying on the mattress cover. So I'm still thinking of different plans. I want to organize it to that I can have the two desks beside each other so I have a lot of work space.
73. Have you ever cried because you were so happy?
March 14th, 2009. (I didn't know that off the top of my head, I had to look it up). I was going on vacation with my BFFLAAT and we were standing in Port Everglades. We had arrived later than planned, and so were a little restless. After entering the United States and getting on a plane with the documentation I had, I was being told that no, I could not get on the Norwegian Jewel because I did not have the proper documentation. J was saying that this form had gotten me into the US, it should be good enough for NCL. And then J whipped out her lawyer card (not literally, unfortunately, because that would have been enough for NCL) and they still wouldn't let me on. Then there was this whole fiasco trying to contact my parents for permission and is it the proper form and she needs a witness and how will she get it to us. Then my parents couldn't find the form online and everyone was panicking. And then the fire alarm went off. I started panicking even more, but nobody else did anything, so I continued to sit there. Then the NCL people are asking what our luggage looks like so that they can take it off the boat. Meanwhile, J was starting to loose it and I thought, "I'm not going on a cruise. J is going to hate me, I ruined her vacation (cause they couldn't very well just leave me there and go on the cruise themselves). I'm not going to be able to hang out with my BFFLAAT anymore." Finally, NCL gave in and said I could get on. About bloody time! But before I could even rejoice, the port security come in and are asking people to leave the building because of the ******* fire alarm. WHICH HAS BEEN GOING OFF FOR 20 MINUTES. So we are standing outside, aware of the minutes ticking by before the boat leaves. Finally we are let back into the building. Where we have to go through security AGAIN. And so, after a painfully long and stressful afternoon, we walk onto the Norwegian Jewel. And that is when I cried happy tears. (I just want to thank J and I* and my BFFLAAT for still liking me after that whole situation and putting up with me after that. And even more so to be willing to face that situation again.)
I'm gonna do more bonus questions for a while. These ones are all about Sherlock.
1. Favourite male character: My first reaction is probably Sherlock. Cause he's amazing. I love what he does. Especially seeing him show more emotions and being in his mind palace this past season makes me love him even more. But also seeing this last season, I have realized I have this hidden love for Moriarty (and Andrew Scott, who plays him). So either of those two.
*that's not I as in me, that's I as in a short form of a name.

THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO KNOW (QOTD #58)
THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW SHERLOCK FAKED HIS DEATH. AND. IT. IS. KILLING. ME. And the next episode comes out tomorrow and people will know even more and I will stILL BE SITTING HERE DYINGY BECAUSE I KNOW NOTHING. And since there are only three episodes I might as well say that I'm an entire season behind. There is no positive to my current situation. None, I tell you. Because I can't go on tumblr because tumblr should really be read "spoilers" because really what else do you find on there. Since I can't go on tumblr, I decided to go on Pinterest BUT THERE ARE PINERS PINNING TUMBLR POSTS WITH SPOILERS IN THEM OMG i'm done. i give up. theres no point anymore. i might as well go hide in my bedroom until i can go back to residence in which case I will watch the two episodes and then continue to hide in my room because my brain will shut down from all the feels and overwhelming awseomeness that is Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes. (Also, went to see The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug today with my friend Croissant and it was so good and I love Benedict Cumberbatch even more because his voice. That man has no bounds.)
J, this ^ is a good example of being a part of a fandom. It truly is a love/hate relationship with a lot pining and wishing about things that can't be.
moving on, now that I have that off my chest...
Started rereading The Fault in Our Stars today. Seriously, you all need to read it. I was going to reread it in December, but I needed to meet my Goodreads reading goal (which I did reach, 45 books thank you very much) and Goodreads doesn't let a reread count towards your reading goal. I'm so excited for the movie!!!
58. Ever have a deja-vu feeling?
Not one that is particularly sticking out to me. When I try to think back to a deja-vu moment I might of had, I think of dreams. Not any specific dream, but just dreams in general. I don't know if that is because you could dream about a situation you were in or vice versa?

QOTD #18 (and a Bonus!)
18. The last time you felt broken?
Well, that depends on how you define broken. I felt broken during the Catching Fire movie when they showed Rue (and I cried), but that doesn't seem like a worth-while broken, if you get what I'm trying to say. Like, it was over something not real. I think I'll go with last Thursday. One of my university groups watched The Pursuit of Happyness (yes that's actually how the movie title is spelled). It was about this father who was struggling to provide for his family and at one point only has $21 dollars in his bank account. I felt broken then, once again being forced to think about how blessed I am to live the life I'm living and have lived. And how there are so many out there who are experiencing what the character in the movie suffered.
And now for the bonus! J gave me some extra questions to do once I ran out. But I have enough questions now to last me a year. So I'm just going to do two for a few days.
My proudest moment was...
Wow. Um, I've had a lot, I'm sure. But my proudest moment. It might have been when I got accepted into GBDA. Probably some academic achievement. (BFFLAAT: my T&T award lol). I'm really not sure. I don't think that I'm an overly proud person.

Shopping
As requested, I am going to give you an idea of what I want to but online. (Just so you know, I'm a women's 9-10 shoe size and generally a medium in shirts, sometimes a large). I am using this post as an excuse to not write more of my astronomy essay, so I am also going to provide you with a link to the websites. Most of these I found through Pinterest.
I actually was going to buy these toms, they were really cheap. But when I clicked on checkout it took me to a different page and it looked sketchy (it wasn't the real Toms site). So I googled the company that they were using for payment and a lot of people were saying that they never got the things they ordered. Needless to say, I didn't buy the toms. But I still really like them.
This jacket is only $15! Most of the other stuff is kind of dream, I want it but it is too expensive. This, however, I would buy. If I had a credit card.
I have wanted on of these backpacks for a long time.
I was going to look for more shirts to show you but I've gotten bored now and may actually do some real work. I might continue this later.

Blog Stats
As of right now, my most popular post has been Night Fury. The only explanation I can think of for this is because it has a lot of photos of Night Fury (the dragon from How To Train Your Dragon) and so if people are googling for images of Night Fury, my page would come up. That's the only think I can think of. Unless you all have a fetish for Night Fury and have that page bookmarked or something. The second most popular is My Top 5 Men. That's a little more understandable. If someone was googling top men or something, my page would show up. Ah, I have just checked and the top search result that leads people to my blog is the search 'night fury'. The second is Robert Downey Jr. I'm glad I can be depended on for supplying the world with it's need of Robert Downey Jr. :) Most people viewing my blog come from Canada (not surprising). Then it's the USA. Understandable, seeing as they are an extremely large country and one of the most technologically advanced. But then it's Russia. I guess they're a big country too...? And most of you use Firefox and Windows. GO MICROSOFT GO! The next highest operating system is the iPad. Not even the Mac, it's the iPad. (I'm looking at you, J). It's so cool how the blog tells you all this. If you want to know how many page views I've had, it's on the right a little ways down. I wish there was a way to not track my own page views. I'm sure my page views would go down considerably. :)
