Confessions of an Over-Stressed Music Major

Since you spared some questions, here's some random ones as well: 1, 5, 9, 15, 21.

1. What is more difficult for you, looking into someones eyes when you are telling someone how you feel, or looking into someones eyes when they are telling you how they feel?- Looking into someone’s eyes. I’m sure I’d make the effort, but I have a habit of talking to people without looking at them.

5. You can have one of the following two things. Which do you choose? Why? Love and Trust. - In some cases, doesn’t trust turn into love? Therefore I go with trust.

9. (Haha. I mixed this with 4 in the other run of questions.) You are at the doctor’s office and he has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? What do you do with your remaining days? Would you be afraid? - I’d tell those that I know would want to make the most of the time left I have. I would want to do things I’ve never done. I would want to live out dreams and I would want to live out the dreams of my friends to know I brought them joy. As for being afraid, I would absolutely be afraid.

15. What do you think would be the hardest thing for you to give up? Why would it be hard to lose? - Making music. It would be hard considering that I’m essentially making a career out of making music.

21. You are holding onto your grandmother’s hand and the hand of a newborn that you do not know as they hang over the edge of a cliff. You have to let one go to save the other. Who do you let fall to their death? What was your rationale for making the decision? - Well, my remaining grandmother doesn’t really have much more in life that she’s aspiring for other than to be active in her old age. With the newborn, there is a lot of hope and plenty of time to live and develop. Therefore, I go with newborn. If my other grandmother were still alive, I would go with her because I know she has plenty more to aspire for.

I feel you should answer all the even questions. :)

Only because I love Grrtt.

2. Think of the last time you were REALLY angry. WHY were you angry? Do you still feel the same way? - That would have been towards the end of first semester. I was hella stressed out and was playing a game of Madden that wasn’t going so well. Well, four or five guys just sort of came in and dogged on me…and the stress finally snapped me. I spent the next hour curled up in the stair well to keep myself from flipping out on everyone.

4. You are at the doctor’s office and he has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? What do you do with your remaining days? Would you be afraid?- I love Grandma Nana, but I know she wouldn’t want that.

6. You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late even once more, you are fired. Do you take the time to save the dogs life? Why or Why not?- Oh gosh…This one really is tough. If I was alone, I would do it. If there was someone else around, I would draw their attention to it and leave with the hope that it works out.

8. Your best friend confesses that he/she has feelings for you more than just friendship. He/she is falling in love with you. What do you (or did you) do/say?- Right now I would be absolutely flattered. I would probably be more than happy to try and see if things could work. I’ve just been so lonely and it only makes sense to me to be in relationships with friends more so than near-strangers.

10. Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend? - Absolutely. I love people who try their hardest. The only worry would be the competition between us.

12. Your boss tells your coworker that they have to let them go because of work shortage, and they are the newest employee. You have been there much longer. Your coworker has a family to support and no other means of income. Do you go to your boss and offer to leave the company? Why or Why not?- Well, this wouldn’t really be the case since my work would be in music education unless it’s a bigger school with more faculty. If it were just a normal “job” then I would let the other person have the job because I’m comfortable with scholarships right now.

14. What would be (or what was) harder for you to tell a member of the opposite sex, you love them or that you do not love them back? - Definitely that I love them.

16. Excluding romantic love, when was the last time you told someone you loved them. Who were they to you?- Mata. He’s one of my favoritest people ever.

18. Imagine it is a dark night, you are alone, it is raining outside, you hear someone walking around outside your window. WHO do you wish was there with you? - Ashley from The Evil Dead trilogy. He’d fuck up that mofo.

20. This question doesn’t exist…

22. Are you old fashioned? I have some old-fashioned thoughts involving being classy, but overall I’m not.

24. Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a broken heart, or never loved at all? Why? - First one without a doubt. I’d rather know that I was special to someone than to know that I never have been in a romantic sense.

For really though

FUUUUUUUUU!

Usually when people do that “you’re special” crap I tend to roll my eyes.

But when Mister Rogers said it…

That’s because Mister Rogers meant it.

23. Where I have lived before.

Anonymous

I’ve only ever lived in Idaho. I lived (and kinda do still until I get an apartment in Boise) in a town of about 7,500 called Payette that’s on the border of Idaho and Oregon. I lived there for 18 1/2 years…in the same room…with the bed always in the same place. However, I have travelled a lot, so it’s not like Idaho has been one huge prison for me.

Nope. Wrong. Bill’s PC.

I would totally give Felicia Day all of the frozen yogurt ever just for being so awesome.

For instance, the Zubin Mehta 1975 recording of Mahler #2 is way better than the standard Leonard Bernstein 1963 recording.

I never thought I’d see “Rancor Breading” until I saw panel #3.
