true or false?

In the days of long ago, there was this little social network called MySpace. I joined MySpace when I was 17, and when I wasn’t bragging about my time at Warped Tour or spending an hour trying to take the perfect MySpace default picture…

…I was reading and taking those surveys that always seemed to flood the “friends forum.” And, Let’s be honest here – some things just never change.

survey time: true or false?

I wear perfume or cologne daily: false

I have a calendar in my room: false

I screen my phone calls: Uh, apparently phones have come a long way since this survey was compiled…

I have had my wisdom teeth removed: true – all four

I have driven a mini-van: true

I own a video camera: There’s a video option on my camera so…true.

I have allergies: very true

I am an only child: false. I have an older sister, Katie :)

I am afraid of clowns: false

I subscribe to Cosmopolitan Magazine: false

I take a daily vitamin: false

I have too many credit cards: false. Never have, never will.

I have painted my bedroom: not personally, but it has been painted.

I have worn hand-me-down clothes: true

I have broken a bone: false! And up until a few months ago, I never had stitches either…

I have cheated on a partner: false

I play video games: true! Super Nintendo, all the way :D

I have been in a submarine: false

I have been to Disney: true – 4 times. Hopefully more to come!

I have an opinion about Britney Spears: Well, I would’ve never guessed she’d make a successful comeback…

I am an aunt/uncle: false

I have a scar on my knee: Despite me being the world’s biggest klutz (seriously, that’s my official title)…false.

I am currently on medication: true – allergy medicine.

I text more than I call people: true

I have been a bridesmaid/groomsmen: false, but that will change next September! :)

I am married: false

I have had a surprise birthday party: true

I drink coffee: true

I watch American Idol: true – but probably not anymore since Simon is gone (admit it – he made the show).

I have been to Washington DC: false

I have been on a diet: true. I decided to stick with the cookie diet.

I have gotten into a car accident: true

I have to get a crown put on one of my molars today because it is completely cracked for absolutely no reason: true. What are the odds that that would be one of the survey questions? :P

^ Wish me luck on that one! ^ Ta ta, babes. xoxo G

    This is such a cute post! I can totally relate on that myspace obsession. I remember I would sit hours at a time making my page look cool and picking songs as the background. So dumb. haha! =)

    myspace was the best. you know, at age 17. :)

    I loved the surveys but always hated the true and false ones… I wanted one where I could write and write and write about meaningless ish that no one else cared about (yet still read).

    omg I was bad when it comes to myspace. I would waste so much time with surveys and quizzes. I ended up deleting it. Now that I have facebook it’s almost as bad but I don’t add any of those quizzes or games to it.

    I was supposed to have a joint surprise sweet 16 birthday party with my best friend, but a week before the party my friend found the invitation saved on her family’s computer because there was a very suspicious recent document named “shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
    :) We acted surprised anyway

    Just had to throw a few in the mix; the ones it seems like many ppl say false to:

    I DO wear perfume every day, Anthropologie’s Oiseau ‘The Charmer’, which they d/c’ed for a while but finally brought back!! I’m already half done my second bottle of it.

    I have been a bridesmaid 8 times, plus I’ve sang in 2 weddings, read in 3, coordinated 3, and done misc. program/guest book type things… plus I am married :)

    I DO have scars on my knees, and elbows, mostly from falling playing sports as a child.
