 You're the type of person who doesn't get excited until you get moving. You like to be proactive, whether that means working hard or working out. You can't stand to stay still for too long. There's things to do and people to see. You are a natural motivator. You are good at convincing others to take action. |

Vanilla
 You connect easily to other people. You have found your place in the world. You feel both intensely alive and totally at peace. You are grateful for this life you've been given. You are a joy to be around, and people love you for being exactly who you are. You can be protective and stubborn, especially when it comes to your friends and family. |

Nature Lover
 When you think about your ideal trip, you know it's not spent inside cramped cities or tour buses. Nothing makes you feel more relaxed than being outdoors, and you're looking for a spot that's nothing short of paradise. Whether you're trekking through snow capped mountains or surfing the best waves, you love to stay active. You love to get away from it all and do a little exploring. The less people around, the better! |

Casual
 You aren't anti-fashion, but you also don't put too much stock on the latest trends. You simply want to feel comfortable, and bonus points if you can easily fit in with your look. You know how to pull off a formal look if you have to... you just rather be in jeans. Just because you're casual, it doesn't mean you're not stylish. You're always ready to rock a fun accessory or shirt. |

Aqua Eyes
 You are a lively, outgoing, and even chatty person. You thrive when you're around others. You love to play, and you're always looking for new playmates to add to your circle of friends. You may be lighthearted, but you're also an intellectual. The world fascinates you. You are both inquisitive and adventurous. You have a lot of questions, and you're willing to travel the world to find their answers. |
Adventurous
 Your heart soars whenever you have the chance to do something new, and that goes double for Valentine's Day. You would love excitement and novelty to celebrate this special day. You especially love surprises! Your ideal Valentine's Day is unconventional, quirky, and not traditionally romantic by any means. You don't like a lot of pressure on V-Day. You just want to have some fun! |
Lottery
 You think gambling is fun, but you would never take it too terribly seriously. You don't expect too get rich from gambling. You're too realistic for that! You are very civic and community minded. If you're going to have fun gambling, you want to be giving back at the same time. You are generous and giving. You love having money best when you're able to help others with it. |

Sunset Meme 2/13
1. What is your favorite Mexican dish? There is a Mexican restaurant here that has awesome chicken fajitas. One of my friends went there today and now I'm totally craving it!
2. When you were a kid, did you get started on your homework right away after school, or did you procrastinate? I am a master procrastinator, but then in the very end (with all the pressure) I can get a lot done!
3. What is your favorite store for home furnishings? Goodwill? LOL...probably Target
4. When you were young, did you like school lunches? In grade school we had to bring our own lunches except for one Friday a month, when we had sloppy joes, cheetos, and punch. It was delicious! Then I moved schools in 5th grade and got free lunch at the public school and LOVED it. I was sad to leave after that year, if for nothing else than the yummy (though I'm sure unhealthy!) school lunches.
5. Is religion a crutch? It can be...especially when people get hung up on the sins people have committed. I'm not sure what happened to "love the sinner, not the sin". We need to go back to that.
6. In your region, what is the “big” high school sport? I'm not really sure but guessing either football or lacrosse.
7. Do you consider yourself rich? Money-wise, not at all. Friends and family wise, yes.
8. Which of these would you have the best chance administering:
A) CPR
B) Heimlich Maneuver
C) Changing a flat tire
9. Which dance would you prefer to learn & why:
A) Salsa
B) Hip Hop- it sounds fun, and I already know swing.
C) Waltz
D) Swing
10. What’s the worst news you’ve ever delivered to someone? At this point, I feel like it's telling my former boss that I wasn't going back to my school at the beginning of the next school year...but I don't know. I've never had to tell anyone that their family member died or anything, I think that would be the worst.
11. Name something you learned in college that had nothing to do with classes or academics. Friends come and go- it has to do with the seasons of life, I suppose.
12. New variation on an old question: If there’s a song in your head that just won’t get out, what is your favorite (or most repeated) line in that song? You know, I don't really have one (right now...)

Zebra
 You are a multifaceted and complex person. The front you provide is even a bit of an illusion. You are a study in contradictions and strong contrasts. You believe that there is more than one way to look at things. You also believe in accepting yourself. You feel different from everyone else, and you embrace that. You inspire others to be their true selves and even flaunt what they've got! |
Chic-- haha
 You've always been naturally glamourous. You don't have to work to be chic. You have an eye for fashion, style, and even sometimes gadgets... if they're sleek enough. You aren't superficial. You just enjoy rockin' your own amazing personal look. You're so in to everything chic that you do end up being a bit of a geek about it! |
Eagle
 You are a deeply spiritual and wise person. Your still waters run deep. You are very perceptive and intuitive. You often see what others are missing. You are both responsible and fearless. You won't be deterred from your destiny. You do what needs to be done, especially when others are afraid to do it. |
PB Cookies
 You are a good humored and straightforward person. You are sweet, but you don't sugar coat anything. You see things how they are, and luckily, things are pretty great. You are both optimistic and philosophical about life. You can process bad news well. You are good at comforting yourself and knowing what you need. And you have the strength to provide great comfort to others. |
Faithful
 You are a truly courageous person. You believe in yourself and the people around you. You are a positive thinker and a true optimist. You expect the best from the world. You are independent yet interdependent. You do your own thing, but you're always thinking of the community around you. You are warm-hearted, witty, and even irreverent. You think it's a shame to take anything too seriously. |
