Seven Late Night Questions

[deeplyunhip]

Just the usual set of unrelated questions. :)



[Poll #1667106]



Though the nap question is related to my current supremely erratic sleep schedule. I need to work on that.

I have no clue what you're referring to for the last two questions.
I'm happy to see that I don't use cliches :) For some reason those sorts of phrases bug me.
For the trend one, you were just asking what I saw people around me into right, not necessarily what I personally got into? If for some reason you're interested in which ones I followed, they were: stickers! (still love stickers, but I don't display them in albums that I carry around with me anymore), pogs, Jagged Little Pill (though I never owned the album), American Girl (my favorite was Kirsten), Goosebumps (and Fear Street), and supersoakers a little bit.

Meme characters = general silly internet humor.

The Hunger Games = a wonderful dystopian book series about a world where children are forced to participate in a battle like this on a yearly basis. One girl volunteers to go to the arena in place of her younger sister, and the story begins from there.

I am interested, sure! I love Kirsten - I still have my Kirsten doll. I was so sad to hear that she was discontinued or whatever. I feel like she could be a wonderful inspiration to other girls who are learning English and/or adjusting to a new culture. :/

Kirsten was DISCONTINUED?!!! That is horrific news.

The Hunger Games sounds like Ender's Game, which I have read and really liked. Hmmm I tend to really like dystupia stuff, perhaps I'll have to check that out.

Yes, I know, it's horrible. They apparently retired Samantha the year before. This article (http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/34477922/ns/today-today_fashion_and_beauty/) attempts to explain the "thinking" behind these decisions. At least I still have my Kirsten, even if her hair is like, beyond repair. XD

Cool, I'd definitely recommend them - they're quick reads, and very interesting!
