I like to get a pretty card (I like things that are shiny) and write my own note inside.

I said 'other' for the scents: My ex boyfriend had this really amazing perfume called Sweet Revenge that smelled like poison and sugar. It was in a purple or green vial [forgot] and it was like frosted over. I would always steal it from him and wear it, hehe.
It also reminds me of My Chemical Romance, who yes... I do actually like, because their GOOD album was named 'Three cheers for sweet revenge.' I'm an emo kid, I guess.

And for the things I can't do: Write a story, and roll my R's. I seriously can't. Like, I can do it if I purr from the back of my throat and it sounds just like the real thing but it cuts off my note if I have to sing a song in a language that rolls their r's. It's really weird >>.

The scents question should've been check boxes. Fruity is what I prefer for daily use because it simply makes me happier since it's so lively, so that's what I checked. I genuinely prefer Woody or Water though.

[deeplyunhip.livejournal.com]

Oh, everyone's always saying something should be check-boxes. You see, I really still don't know how to be a nice person - I like to torture you guys with tough choices like this. :P

Completely unrelated to your comment, thank you for reminding me about the existence of Maniac Magee. I liked that one, too. Don't know how I completely forgot about it.

I can't raise just one eyebrow, and it drives me NUTS.

[deeplyunhip.livejournal.com]

Lol, this is actually why I picked "other", too! It's an enviable skill. >.>

[misstopia.livejournal.com]

I just learned to do this. Like last month.

[cloud-wolf.livejournal.com]

At least they're not like Hermione Emma Watson's eyebrows. Mine are. When I'm enthousiastic they just. Keep. Moving. And it makes people laugh.

[misstopia.livejournal.com]

Actually mine get pretty expressive too, my sister says I'm a cartoon character the way my face and body moves when I get *baddum* animated.

I chose 'green' for perfume just because it seemed to fit the best... yes'm.

And I tried to click the box that said I can't be as awesome as you but my fingers completely rebelled and... just couldn't do it. My brain refuses >.>

It's okay, a lot of people make silly mistakes like that when voting on polls. :P I mean, there was clearly a mistake on the part of every other person who didn't pick this incredibly clear option... ;)

For my closest friends, I used to do these multi-volume birthday cards for a while, and the cards were partially selected for the amount of blank space inside, as I tended to go on and on. These days, though, I just go for something funny and/or pretty.

My sensitivity/seriousness is perfectly calibrated to every occasion. (Seriously, I don't know... When I've taken things less seriously than other people, it was usually because the other people were freaking out over nothing, so I feel like the problem was with them and not me. And I don't think I've ever been accused of taking things too seriously.)

And, yep, never learned to ride a bike... My father was giving me a ride on his bike when I was a toddler -- this was back in the olden days of no safety standards and stuff -- and the bike fell over on top of us, traumatizing me. Since then, I never had any desire to learn to ride. So I never did. Sort of relieved I'm not the only one, as it always garners incredulous looks from people (and mocking :).

[deeplyunhip.livejournal.com]

Yes, I definitely don't see you as the type to take things too seriously. :)

I almost picked "riding a bike", too, but the fact is that I know how...I just kind of suck at it. Who even knew that was possible? Lol.

Cards: It really depends on the friend. I do have a habit of buying "Happy Retirement!" or "Condolences for Your Loss" type cards for birthdays, because it entertains me. :P But I really like picking out pretty, handmade cards (there's a great bookstore here that has a massive selection of unique cards) and writing in them too.

Fragrances: I really want to find a "signature scent" for myself... the thing with perfume and me is that I forget to put it on, haha. Nothing ever seems good enough to keep wearing, either, you know? Like, it smells pretty, but for every day? Nahh.

Evan and I just had a huge fight and part of it was over him thinking I take things too seriously. I definitely do sometimes. :P

I can kind of whistle... I can make a sound that resembles a whistling sound, but I can't whistle well. It's frustrating! I most definitely can't be a nice person, and I really can't tie neck-ties either. Other things: I can't raise one eyebrow, roll my r's, or keep my mouth closed when I apply eye makeup.

[deeplyunhip.livejournal.com]

Hahah, can I request a "happy retirement" card mailed to me for my birthday this next year? :D I like this habit of yours.

[your-downfall.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, for sure. I don't think I have your most current address, though...

Cards: It varies depending on the person. Either really sappy & sentimental with long, emotional notes scrawled in every inch of available white space or funny.

Scent: Green, mostly the smell of fresh cut grass. But as of late, Chris's cologne. ::eyeroll:: I know, I'm a dork.

Don't worry - I absolutely do not subscribe to the theory that getting all romantic with your guy takes anything away from your badass cred. :P

I really like Britney Spears' Fantasy perfume, it's all I ever wear! It's so weird! I don't like Britney at all but the smell is just perfect to me :p

[deeplyunhip.livejournal.com]

Lol, random! But cool. ;)

Question 1 needed check boxes cause it depends for who. :P

And it's interesting that you ask about sensitiveness because I have been thinking of that yesterday. I'm generally more unsensitive but I try to be nice to people.

And curling tongues is genetic XD

[deeplyunhip.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, check boxes for all, I know. :P

I think you're very nice, btw. :)

[guad.livejournal.com]

I have issues with making polls using radio buttons, I hardly use them unless it's a one answer option poll (or the awards :P ) Life is full of possibilities and polls have to have many options too!

Awww *blushs* :))) You are very nice too :)

I make cards, but they're really difficult. You take a thin strip of paper, you roll it up until it has the right size (can be loose, can be tight), then you shape it into the correct form and then you glue it to the card. I can make really intricate dragons with it. My friend's birthday card had a dragon and flowers on it and it took 130 strips of paper X_X

But now I'm slowly running out of the pre cut paper strips (I think it's called filigrin paper) because they don't sell them in shops anymore because nobody's mad enough to put time in it anymore :(
