tickle quizzes

Victoria, a Glamorous look will make you picture perfect

Ooh-la-la! Whether you're attending fashionable parties or throwing your own special gatherings, you always like to put your best foot forward. That's why your perfect holiday look is something that makes you as dazzling and beautiful on the outside as you are on the inside. From sparkles to jewels to bright colors to black, you know how to dress up and show off whatever you've got on.

You probably don't have Santa's sleigh perched on your roof, and we doubt you've ever worn a sweater that sings carols, but you're definitely a sweet and charming soul who knows exactly what the holidays are all about: spending time with family and friends. Still, there's no reason you can't be snuggled in cashmere and silk while you celebrate!

What's your picture perfect holiday look?

Victoria, Cute Guys tickle you pink

Admit it — you're a flirt at heart. And you don't mind putting yourself out there to get a guy's attention. Making people feel interesting and at ease is just second nature for a smooth operator like you. Which helps explain why nothing makes you happier than that feeling of falling in love, being in love, or staying in love.

Did anyone ever call you boy-crazy? Looks like they were right on the money. You're always on the lookout for a smile or wink from the right guy — whether he's a long-term love or a cute new crush. And we know you'll wink back.

What tickles you pink?

Victoria, your style profile is Chic and Sleek

Calm, cool, collected. Your style statement is all about casual elegance. Whether an impeccable pantsuit or slim-fitting bootcut jeans, your look tends to be on the minimalist side with an emphasis on a perfect fit. And while you may not be one for frilly embellishments, we'd guess you have a few irreplaceable accessories — a croc belt, a turquoise necklace, a silk scarf — that you couldn't live without.

Chances are your friends envy your seemingly effortless, pulled-together appearance. And what's not to love? It's a look that's been cultivated over years of knowing what you like, knowing what looks good on you, and sticking with it.

What's your style profile?

Catchin' Up

Patrick's Saturday Six
1. Have you ever had a dream that you felt was a message from some "higher power?" Do you think it's possible to receive such messages through dreams?

Umm... not really. I believe dreams are your subconscious' way of working through the problems in your every day life. I do think it's possible to receive such messages however.

2. How much does a person's musical preference tell you about them?

Definitly tells you a bit but, it's not the be all and end all.

3. What time did you get up Friday morning? Were you part of the shopping madness?

Like 9 or 10-ish. No but I did go to the mall that day.

4. Take this quiz: What religion do you fit in with?

You fit in with:
Taoism


Your ideals mostly resemble those of the Taoist faith.  Spirituality is the most important thing in your life.  You strive to live by all of your ideals, and live a very intellectually focused life.

80% spiritual.
20% reason-oriented.

This Is My Life, RatedLife: 4.7Mind: 4.2Body: 6.1Spirit: 5Friends/Family: 6.3Love: 1.4Finance: 4.2Take the Rate My Life Quiz>                  Elmo
      You scored 64% Organization, 71% abstract,  and 49% extroverted!                        This test measured 3 variables.

First, this test measured how organized you are.  Some muppets like Cookie Monster make big messes, while others like Bert are quite anal about things being clean.

Second, this test measured if you prefer a concrete or an abstract viewpoint.  For the purposes of this test, concrete people are considered to gravitate more to mathematical and logical approaches, whereas abstract people are more the dreamers and artistic type.

Third, this test measured if you are more of an introvert or an extrovert.By definition, an introvert concentrates more on herself and anextrovert focuses more on others. In this test an introvert wassomebody that either tends to spend more time alone or thinks moreabout herself.

You are mostly organized, more abstract, and both introverted and extroverted.

Most people either love or hate Elmo.  I hope you love Elmo, because that's who you are.

You are both somewhat organized. You have a goodidea where you put things and you probably keep your place reasonablyclean. You aren't totally obsessed with neatness though. Elmo has thesame basic approach. His place is pretty tidy, but he doesn't spend allof his time cleaning it up.

You both are abstract thinkers. You definitely are not afraid to takechances in life. You only live once. You may notice others around youplaying it safe, but you are more concerned with not compromising yourdesires, and getting everything you can out of life. This is a veryromantic approach to life, but hopefully you are also grounded enoughto get by. Elmo's whole life is based on fantasy and his imagination.In the beginning he was a regular character, but now he spends most ofhis time in this fantasy world.

You are both somewhat extroverts. Like Elmo, you probably like to havesome time to yourself, but you do appreciate spending time with yourfriends, and you aren't scared of social situations. Elmo spends someof his time with real friends, but he also needs some time just to chatit up with his goldfish.

The other possible characters are
Oscar the Grouch
Big Bird
Cookie Monster
Ernie
Snuffleupagus
Kermit the Frog
Grover
The Count
Guy Smiley
Bert

If you enjoyed this test, I would love the feedback! Also if you wantto tell me your favorite Sesame Street character, I can total them upand post them here. Perhaps your choice will win!

Sunday Seven

Sunday Seven

THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:

Name the top seven stores where you are most likely to do the majority of your Christmas shopping this year. If you can't name seven, name as many up to seven as you can. You can also include online retailers, too.

I'm mostly making gifts this year so my answers are kinda weird...

1. JoAnn Fabric
2. Wegman's (a grocery store)
3. Target
4. some online site for a couple things

and that's about it...

Robin's Friday Five
1. What is the one thing on your Thanksgiving table that you will NOT eat?

I don't eat turkey. My mum always either gets me this deli turkey I do like or a cornish hen or just some chicken.

2. Did you ever play in a pile of leaves as a kid? If so do you have a picture of you or someoneyou know playing in the fall leaves? Post it if you do!

I did just a couple weeks ago. No pics right now.

3. When you think of Fall what are the three things that come to mind?

The smell of leaves, the chill of wind, and the taste of hot spiced cider

4. When was the last time you had pumpkin pie? Was it last year or have you already had some this year?

Last year.

5. Tell us something really nice about the last person you read an email from.

I'm not *quite* sure who the last person I got an e-mail from was. I've gotten a few today. I think it was either Michael or Sara. Michael (whose journal is Confessions of a Madman) is an amazing guy. He (along with others) helped me through my original struggle with SI and forced me to accept the term self-mutilation as applied to myself. I still don't like it but I see how some might think that. He's always there if ever I need him. And Sara is equally as amazing. She, too, helped me through that struggle and offers advice as best she can when I ask for it. She has a wonderful child-like way of looking at certain things. Not naive but optomistic and innocent, I suppose is how to describe it.


Now I've really gotta write that global essay! Damn it...

Saturday Six

1. What was the last movie you watched at a theater completely alone? Would you have enjoyed it more or less if you had gone with someone to see it?

I've never gone completely alone.

2. What was the last non-sexual thing you did around the house completely naked?

Ummm... *thinks* probably either getting ready to go out or just existing. Like as in I just went about what I had to do naked.

3. How well do you know your neighbors? Would you like to know them better or not know them?

I've got two immediate neighbors and a complex full of others. I know NOBODY. I kinda knew John and Megan but they moved and I've got new neighbors that moved in like yesterday.

4. Take this quiz: How much of a conspiracy nut are you?

JFK b/c I'm obsessed w/it.

6. If you had to create a slogan that defined your life, what would it be?

Saturday Six

1. You are invited to spend a night, alone, in a large house that is believed to be haunted.  A close friend of yours whom you trust tells you of his or her own experience, and you have sufficient reason to believe that there may be a genuine haunting going on there.  Without promise of any kind of reward for staying the night, would you agree to do so?

Hell no. I am superstitious and that would scare the crap out of me.

2. What do you most enjoy about your job?

My "job" is school. I see my friends every day for 40 mins (except day 4's).

3. Who was the last person you had a conversation with?  What was the main topic of the conversation?

Lindz and useless crap.
