Dude I so lied. I can't help it. I love doing surveys.

YOUR NAME
(1) The singular boring question: What is your name? Stephanie
(2) If you had been born a member of the opposite sex, what would your name have been? Brian or Nathanael
(3) Would you name a child of yours after you? Not after me, no. Maybe after a parent or grandparent. Or my husband.
(4) If you had to switch first names with a friend of yours, who would you switch with? Natalie
(5) What's the way people most often mispronounce any part of your name? Nope, my name is pretty basic.
(6) If you were to become famous, would you drop your last name (like Madonna, Cher, Roseanne)? I'd probably do my first and middle. See, at first I thought this question was asking whether I would drop my last name if I was a celebrity and got married...and that answer would be yes. For instance, I believe Jessica Simpson should be Jessica Lachey now. I don't care about her "status."

DEEP THEOLOGICAL QUESTIONS
(7) Do you believe in the traditional view of Heaven and Hell? Yes. Well, I think so. All I know is, Hell is eternal separation from God. And Heaven is WITH God.
(8) Do you think God has a gender? No.
(9) Do you think science counteracts religion? See, this question requires depth...and this is a SURVEY. You can't dig too deep in a survey. BUT...yes and no. I don't believe that God works on autopilot all the time, thus, miracles. I have an open enough mind to conceive the idea that God does not rely on our logic and can do whatever the heck He wants, whether it's "scientific" or not. It is my opinion that we need to stop with the anthromorphism (giving human characteristics to an inhuman being). God is above our language.
(10) Do you believe in organized religion? yes and no
(11) Where do you think we go when we die? heaven or hell
(12) Do you feel a little funny thinking about the questions in this section? Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahaha. That is a FUNNY question to ask me if you knew me. :)

HUMOR
(13) How easy is it to make you laugh? depends on the sense of humor of the funny person
(14) What person you know makes you laugh the most? Natalie and Megan R
(15) Do you laugh at jokes you know you shouldn't? yes
(16) Do you tell jokes you know you shouldn't? not usually
(17) What words instantly make you laugh or at least smile? penis (no...it's not the word in itself, even though the word IS kind of funny...it's mainly the fact that every time someone says it, they say it in a funny way. Like in How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days, where the "counselor" says "penis" after Matthew M. tells her that Kate Hudson named his "member.")
(18) What do you think is the funniest thing you've ever said or written? "'Well done, gentleman.' 'Kind of like a hamburger, Larry.'" - That's part of a REALLY random caption I concocted for the latest deepelm.com caption contest.

MUSIC
(19) Do you ever dance to music when nobody's watching? Dude yeah.
(20) What is/are the worst song(s) you have ever heard? Oh I have lots of those. But one that comes to mind is "Hot in Here." (I REFUSE to type "Herrrrre")
(21) What song(s) do you wish you could understand a little better? Jared's. ;) U2's. And a lot of emo bands. They're so subtle and metaphoric sometimes. Like Further Seems Forever. *Shrug*
(22) What song(s) are constantly in your head? It depends on the time...?
(23) What song(s) do you think describe your personality best? "Stuck In A Moment," U2, Brandtson, "Anything and Everything," "Frail," Jars of Clay
(24) If you were to serenade the object of your affections, which song(s) would you use? Oooh this is a fun one. Hmmm..."Kiss Me," Sixpence None The Richer, "Godsend," dc Talk, and I'm sure a lot of others, too, but I can't think right now.
(25) If the object of your affections were to serenade you, what song(s) would you hope he or she used? one he wrote just for me. :)

MOVIES
(26) What movie(s) do you love that nobody else seems to? Home Alone 2
(27) Do you agree with the idea that sequels are always worse than the original? No
(28) Who's your favorite Star Wars character? none
(29) What kind of movie do you think there should be more of? Call me crazy...but movies about commitment (as in the love kind of commitment) overcoming incredible odds...and I'm not talking about "Oh we're so 'attracted' about each other so that must mean we're in love" movies. I'm talking real hard-core, true 1 Corinthians 13 love. But yeah. You probably won't ever FIND a movie like that because Hollywood's not a fan of "Christian living." Heh. *shrug* Okay yeah, I enjoyed A Walk To Remember...but if you're going to do a movie about how the "normal" Christian is...get somebody who really knows how to portray a "realistic" Christian. 'Cause, you know, I'm a preacher's daughter and I'm not anywhere CLOSE to Jamie Sullivan.
(30) What movie(s) do you simply not understand the appeal of? Harry Potter, mos def. The books, too.

FOOD
(31) When eating, are you more concerned with taste or healthiness? taste
(32) What's your favorite kind of cheese? American
(33) What do you think your answer to the previous question reveals about your personality? Ummm...I'm never that big on trying something new, as in food, I mean.
(34) If you knew exactly what went into Chinese food, hamburger meat, etc., would you still eat it? of course, I don't care where it came from, as long as it tastes good. <--- Ha, I'm leaving Erica's answer 'cause she is dang right. ;)
(35) Do you ever feel guilty eating meat? SOMEtimes. Usually when I'm feeling gluttonous...

COMPUTERS
(36) Mac or PC? PC
(37) How much do you actually care about the inner workings of your computer, as long as it works? Hm, not a lot at all, but sometimes I'll be like "Okay so how does electricity REALLY work..." Ha. I'm SUCH a dork. :)
(38) Do you ever begin preferring IMs to other forms of conversation? Honestly? I'd be lying if I said no. But when it involves Jared, I prefer face to face...among other people as well
(39) Do you find you're different talking through IMs than face-to-face or on the telephone? Eh, no. I just feel as though sometimes, only a small portion of my personality will come out. Like honestly, sometimes I feel that my inner personality comes out on the computer but my shy, uptightness doesn't. If I were to meet someone online outside of the computer (haha, you can tell I try to avoid saying "real life"), I'd be really shy and I would probably walk really insecurely and unsurely. On the other hand, sometimes, in meeting people, I am VERY hyper...probably to subconsciously cover UP that insecurity. But honestly? I don't think I'm that different on IM than other forms of communication
(40) Have you ever ended bid on something on eBay and regretted it later? No

THE BATTLE OF THE SEXES
(41) Have you ever wished you could experience being the other gender? No
(42) What do you love most about the other gender? Being attracted to them because they are the opposite sex. Haha. There goes one of my "This is obvious" remarks. ;) You get to fall in love with one of them and marry them one day and spend the rest of your life happily with them. (and yes, I realize this is not always the case...but it's, pretty much, every girl's dream.)
(43) What do you dislike most about the other gender? You have to THOROUGHLY explain certain things to them until they understand. ;) And SOME are just plain out clueless...not mentioning any names...J- ;)
(44) What do you understand least about the other gender? why they don't have "dramas" with other guys like girls often do with girls. I mean I know it has to do with their biological make up, but still...it's rather interesting. I'm seriously thinking about minoring in behavioral science, guys. Majoring in Christian studies, minoring in behavioral science (or psychology, OR humanities...I can't decide quite yet.) Right now...this is my working decision.

CELEBRITIES
(45) Do you sometimes see a movie or watch a show just because a good-looking celebrity is in it? yes
(46) What celebrity's autograph do you want most? honestly, I could care less
(47) Have people ever said you looked like a celebrity, and if so, who? one of my friends once told me I ACTED like Melissa Joan Hart. I think it was the way I talked and how my eyes widened up when I was excited about something. But as far as looking like one, none.
(48) If there was to be a movie about you, who do you think should play you (in personality, looks or both)? Personality - Sandra Bullock. Looks - I'm not sure...since there's no actress that really looks like me.
(49) Does it ever annoy you when you know someone is a celebrity but you can't remember why? ...? No...
(50) If you could enter any celebrity's mind like in "Being John Malkovich", whose would you enter? Kevin Max...or Bono. (although I don't consider them "celebrities," really...even though they kinda ARE)
(51) Do you want to be John Malkovich? "Haha! After the question on 'Being John Malkovich' I'm gonna make the next question ask it! Haha!" Heh. No.
(52) Do you laugh when you hear or read the number 69? No
(53) Were you lying about your answer to the previous question? Dude...whatever happened to the Honor Code? It's my responsibility to decide whether or not I'm going to lie on a stupid survey question. The answer is no.
(54) Do you actually know your Social Security Number? *sigh* yes...
(55) Do you actually know your IP address? nope
(56) Do you know what an IP address is? Haha, no
(57) Do you know the four-character extension on your ZIP code? nope
(58) Ever thought there were too many numbers floating around in our lives? now THAT was a good observational question...but, no. But actually, yes.
(59) Does your head begin to hurt when you think of infinity, imaginary numbers, irrational numbers, etc.? Infinity used to...when I actually made myself TRY to conceive the idea...
(60) What do you think of pi? I like how Blair says her birthday is pi. :)

LOVE AND ALL THAT
(61) Did you get a little frightened or uncomfortable seeing this as a section title? Nope. I was like "Aw yay I get to talk about looooove."
(62) If someone you had no interest in dating expressed interest in dating you, how would you feel? really bad. because the last thing I want to do to someone is break their heart. But, of course, I WILL for someone I truly love.
(63) Do you prefer getting to know someone first before dating them or going in "blind"? Yes.
(64) Could you carry on a relationship with someone with the same first name as a family member? Yeah?
(65) Have you ever wished it was more "socially acceptable" for a girl to ask a guy out? No. I'm old-fashioned. Haha, you know what's funny? Jared and I never actually had a "date" that we started courting. It just happened. We fell in love and, bam. (okay so it was a more difficult process than that) ;) I think that's kind of nifty.
(66) What's your opinion on sex without emotional commitment? Hahahahaha..."emotional commitment." That's like, hilarious to me for some reason. Commitment really, when it boils down to it, has NOTHING to do with emotion. I think one should be married before they have sex. Go wedding night, go. It's just SO much better and SO much more beautiful. (not that I've been married or have had sex or anything...)
(67) Have you ever been romantically attracted to someone physically unattractive? No. And honestly? You can love someone and think they are the most attractive person ever because of that, but if you didn't love them, you wouldn't give them a second glance. How cool is that? I think Jared is physically attractive to begin with, but who he is makes him that much more attractive to me.
(68) Do you think the opposite sex finds you good-looking? Some do. Some don't.
(69) Would you be willing to give up sex in exchange for an emotional commitment you knew would last? Yes, but again, what is "emotional commitment?" That phrase REALLY makes me laugh for some reason...
(70) Do you think the number of the last question was a coincidence? Okay, the more I fill out this survey, the more stupid the survey maker is becoming in my mind...

POSSESSIONS
(71) What is your favorite possession? my Bible
(72) What physical, tangible possession do you want most? a diamond ring one day
(73) How badly do you want it? well, it's not so much the ring as what the ring would mean...
(74) Have you ever seen 'The Exorcist'? No
(75) How long did it take you to understand why the last question is in this section? ...

HOLIDAYS
(76) Does Christmas music too far away from Christmas annoy you? Never
(77) How old do you think you will be before you stop liking getting older? 20s
(78) What was the best Halloween costume you ever had? I'm not sure.
(79) What was the worst Halloween costume you ever had? My mom is so not creative. One Halloween when I was like, 6, she dressed me up in an oversized white t-shirt, but one of her beaded necklaces around my neck, and put my hair up in pig-tails...haha...I wasn't anything specific that Halloween. I was just Stephanie in a white t-shirt. :)
(80) What holiday do you think has still managed to retain its original meaning? well, lets take a look at it shall we? v-day is about getting laid, labor day is about getting off work/school (same with memorial day), 4th of july is to party, thanksgiving is to eat, christmas is to get gifts, easter is to get candy, so I'm down to 2 that have it's meaning. New years and halloween. both for parting and getting candy. booyah. <---- dude...I am so keeping Erica's answer here. It was just...great. :)
(81) There are currently no federal holidays during August- what should be put there? Uh, not sure.

MEMORIES
(82) How good is your short-term memory? bad
(83) How good is your long-term memory? very good
(84) What is your earliest memory? when I was 2 I think, my granddaddy sat on a glass table and broke it.
(85) What is your happiest memory (other than recieving this survey)? Right now, my first kiss...and falling in love...
(86) What is your strangest memory? I can't talk about that one.
(87) What song, movie, etc. do you wish you could memorize? ALL of Home Alone 2. I already have most of it memorized...
TEARS
(88) What movie makes/made you cry? A Walk to Remember (mainly because its meaning for me goes much deeper than the movie), Stepmom, Mr. Deeds... haha, I'm so serious, movies whose central theme is NOT supposed to be sad always make me cry, like chick flicks (haha, I'm such a dork), but movies like Pearl Harbor, Titanic...none of those type movies make me cry. Well, "What Dreams May Come" ALMOST did. Or did it? I can't remember.
(89) What book makes/made you cry? "Web of Dreams," V.C. Andrews
(90) What song makes/made you cry? "Frail" by Jars of Clay has, and "Hold Me Jesus," by Rebecca St. James has...certain love songs make me cry sometimes, too, but that's mainly when my loved one and I aren't doing well or have argued or something
(91) What makes/made you laugh so hard you cried? friends do that sometimes

THREE TRULY RANDOM QUESTIONS
(92) Would you like to be cloned? DEFINITELY not
(93) Do you wish you could be alive when the world was ending, just to experience it? No. Dude, I'm scared. I don't want to be here. I want to die before Jesus comes back. Not because I think I won't go to Heaven, but just because...I don't know.
(94) Scaramouche, scaramouche, will you do the fandango? What?

THIS SURVEY
(95) Do you think that one hundred and one questions is too long? Um...I don't...know?
(96) Do you think the one hundred interesting questions actually were interesting? For the most part, yes. I thought a lot of them were good, minus the idiotic ones that made the maker look stupid
(97) Are you sorry you began filling it out? Nope
(98) What question do you wish it had asked? I can't think...
(99) How would you have answered it? N/A

THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS
(100) When was the last time you let the people you love know you love them? well, I love a lot of people...and I don't tell all of them always in the exact same day (see, some of these questions are just...I don't know)... but I told Jared I loved him yesterday and I periodically tell my parents and friends that.
(101) What do you want the people who are reading this survey to know? God is love. Take the Bible as a whole. Read in context. Don't get caught up over those little verses that make you go "What? That seems like a contradiction to such and such."
