[Cheese Slices]

2) It's getting harder and harder to work seriously for me, because I'm afraid of letting people down.

[This Year's Girl]

Ok, here we go:

1. My closest friends all call me the swedish version of "flash". This was also my first username on BB - "Blixten".

2. I don't want to be famous or accomplish anything big that I'll get recognized for in my life. I want to be a social worker, live in a house in a small town with my husband, have a kid, be close to my friends and be happy. That's the most important thing for me.

3. I am (if I understand the converter right) 5 feet tall. I have never met an adult person that is shorter or the same hight as me. Still waiting for that magical day to come. 🙂

4. I'm going to be 26 years old this year. I'm really looking forward to becoming older. I love how the candles on the cake just becomes more and more. 😀

5. I can't swim. I'm really, really scared of deep water and therefore never learned.

6. Ellen Degeneres is a big role model for me. She seems like a really kind and sweet person, which is what I aspire to be.

7. I used to be a HUGE Morrissey/Smiths fan. I've been to a lot of Morrissey concerts and my most beloved possession were for many years the drum stick I got at one of his concerts. Still have it, but it's not on like a shrine anymore. 😀

8. If I could just eat one thing all my life it would be grilled cheese. That is, until I became lactose intolerant 🙁 🙁 🙁

9. Everytime I find out that a famous woman is gay I start liking her more. Silly, I know, but I just see her in a whole new light 😀 Same thing if I find out someone is a feminist.

10. I think french fries and vanilla ice cream is a really yummy combination. 😀

 

[Cast No Shadow]

Ok, here we go:


8. If I could just eat one thing all my life it would be grilled cheese.

How do you grill cheese? It's not a big thing in the UK and I've never worked it out 🙁

 

[Taake]

1. I rarely get sick, the worst I've gotten I think is a bad cold.

2. I used to be a crazy black metal fan. Really crazy, all about the anger, blood and mayhem. I still find a lot of that aesthetically pleasing but I'm not as drawn to the rather elitist culture anymore.

3. I'm addicted to sparkling water! I just love it.

4. I will scold strangers and kids if I see them misbehaving (cutting in line, not picking up after their dog etc)

5. I love theology and can't read enough of it even if I am an atheist myself, a lot of it really contains some remarkable litetrary works anyone could read!

6. I love watching cartoons, you're never too old for it. Give me He-man, Gummi bears (SO cute) and Scooby Doo. And more or less any Disney

7. I can't not live without my ipod anymore, I get at a loss for how to function without it

8. I'm terrible at dating

9. I have the (unoriginal) dream of some day publishing a book. I love fiction to death, you won't find me without a book in my bag, and I love reading them as well as creating them. Though it's very time consuming, good thing I'm not that social 😉

10. I'm a socialist

🙂

Okay...first you guys don't have mac n cheese...perhaps I wasn't British in a past life. I love cheese too much. If you ever order one at a restaurant in the US, make sure they don't use American "cheese"! That is an absolute disgrace!!!!! Oh, and it's (a grilled cheese) a sandwich haha 😉.

Grilled cheese can also be grilled halloumi cheese, eaten to a dish or separately of one.

 

[SlayerFest]

Believe me, I don't want to be boring. I like not being a follower. But ever since high school, where I've been bullied enough for my entire life, people saying that I'm weird or acting like they don't wanna be my friends because I'm not like them just makes me feel rejected. And I have a hard time dealing with rejection. I'm this kind of people who needs love. And I'm unlucky enough to not get a lot of it. I frequently feel like I don't fit anywhere - my family, job (when I have one), school, etc. - and it's not a nice feeling at all.

*insert here the song Astronaut from Simple Plan for emphasis*

Well those people are pathetic. I know that's insanely cliche...but it's true haha. If someone rejects you for being too weird, they're pretty damn insecure. Rejection isn't fun, but if they reject you for crap like that...they aren't worth anyone's time.

I think it is basically a toasted sandwich, but instead of grilling (irony) it is dry friend in a pan. At least, that is what television has taught me.

exactly! In Quebec, we do it with Kraft cheese slices (which, if you look at the package, aren't really slices of cheese 😀), but you can make it with pretty much any brick cheese.

[sosa lola]

1) I'm married and I have a 3 year old son. 🙂

2) I have a huge obsession with The Story of the Trapp Family Singers, read the book and watched the anime. But I can't watch the Sound of Music because they changed the children's names. Still, I memorized Do Re Me from the movie by heart.

3) I daydream a lot. I space out every now and then, especially when I shouldn't.

4) I used to be a Backstreet Boys freak. The first fanfic I ever written was a BSB fanfic in which my cousins and I were the girlfriends of each Backstreet Boy. I was Nick's girlfriend.

[ItMustBeBunnies]

Hmmm, let's see.....

1. I just woke up and I'm in no shape to think of ten things to say about myself

3. I've only ever been overseas once to Fiji, but I plan to go to Europe and America at some point......if I could just stop spending my money on shoes 😉

4. I named my puppy after my favourite fictional serial killer....Dexter 😉

5. I love to bake cakes, cookies and cupcakes.

6. I plan to get my first tattoo in June this year

7. Music is a really big part of my life. Music was always playing in my house when I was a kid. Dad is an amazing guitarist, mum plays the bass.....I can't play any musical instrument and only sing when I've been drinking or at a concert and you can't really hear me over everyone else, lol. Although I do hum alot 😉 And I love to dance 🙂

8. I'm staying home from work today because I feel sick 🙁

9. My favourite colour is purple.

10. When I had red hair, people seemed fasinated by it. I would get women coming up to me on the street, yelling from cars telling me how much they loved it. And it seemed to really attract weird guys. I had never been hit on that much in my life, and it was not good! Especially when drunk random dudes would feel the need to actually reach out and touch my hair, ick. I'm back to my natural hair colour now which is blonde and I feel so much more anonymous. I like that 🙂

7)I support Liverpool football club.
8)Sitting down on the sofa with a good boxset is one of my favourite things to do.
