Get to know us survey!

I have gotten some new followers over the last few weeks so I figured today & tomorrow would be a good time to do some surveys to get to know me a bit better! And if you don't care to read the survey, the photos are on the bottom!


How long have you been together?
It'll be 7 years this July 16th

How long did you know each other before you started dating?
2 weeks. I met him July 16th & started dating July 30th.

Who asked who out?
He asked me out.

Whose siblings do you see the most?
Considering I don't have any...it would be his sister.

What about pets?
We have a Pit named Sir Licks a Lot

Who does the cooking?
Neither of us do enough of it, but it's an even amount when we do, do it.

Who is more social?
He is. I'm quiet until I'm comfortable around people and then I don't shut up.

Who is the neat freak?
Neither of us until the house is a mess and then we both are 

Who is the most stubborn?
I would say we both are...I am probably a little more stubborn than he is

Who hogs the bed?
He would probably say me, but I'm gonna go with the dog!

Who wakes up earlier?
Depends. He needs less sleep than I do, so probably him

Where was your first date?
We went to the movies & saw Stealth and then we went and got deli sandwiches & walked the park that overlooked NYC. Perfect first date!

Mac

Do you get flowers often?
No. Mac doesn't like to get me stuff that dies.

Who eats more?
Definitely him!

Who sings better?
Neither of us?

Who does the laundry?
He washes and then we slack at who puts it away! 


Who’s better with the computer?
We're both decent at them, but he's better at photoshop & fixing them. We're both good at HTML though 

Who drives when you are together?
Mac since I don't drive at all.

Who picks where you go to dinner?
Me because I'm the picky one

Who eats more sweets?
We both eat our fair share...but I would have to say Darrick goes a little harder on them then I do especially if its chocolate!

Did you go to the same school?
No. There's a 4 year age gap & we lived in different towns.

Who is the most sensitive?
ME!!!! LOL! 

Where do you eat out most as a couple?
Lately, applebees

Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple?
Rhode Island

Who has the craziest exes?
I'm not sure...I guess him! 

Who has the worst temper?
Not Sure...it takes a lot for Darrick to get there but once he is there its hard to bring him back! LOL! And I usually get mad immediately then once I'm done fussing I'm over it.

Christmas Survey

Who do you want to be under the mistletoe with? 
Mac obviously 
 
What are your favourite Christmas memories? 

Christmas morning at home with my parents.  They'd set up the camcorder and record us opening presents from my grandparents in Florida with Christmas music playing in the background. Then we'd pack up & go to mom's family for presents/food

Where would you rather spend Christmas this year? 

I like spending time in our own home. I'd like to host Christmas one day. I don't have a big enough family around here to do that. Hosting my family would be Mac, Dad, Sir & myself LOL


What is your favourite Christmas song? 
I'm big on the classics and the re-mixes of the classics. If that makes sense. Currently I'm listening to A Holly Jolly Christmas by Burl Ives

What do you usually do Christmas morning? 

Open presents if we didn't the night before.  Otherwise we just hang out. Christmas isn't fun for us right now. We have no kids, Mac's family is too far away and mine is just my dad. It's almost like another day for us.

Have you bought all your presents yet? 

Being that it's Christmas Eve I'd hope so. We're not doing much this year. Money is tight. We rather pay rent than buy expensive gifts. We'll make up for it.

What do you do on Christmas Eve?

Go to my dad with Chinese food, open gifts, watch TV and I might go to church with my step-mom while Mac & dad do something at home

Do you spend Christmas with a lot of family?.

No & I'm a little sad by this.
 
Do you go anywhere special on Christmas (vacation) ?

Nope. Never have. I went to Florida one year, but that was after Pop-Pop died

How many items are on your wish list? 

I never give out a wish list. I take what people give me. Though I would like a microwave this year since our new place does not have one.

What do you usually eat on Christmas?  

I usually make a turkey and the usual side dishes. It's almost like Thanksgiving all over again

When did you find out that Santa wasn't real?

3rd grade I think. 

Do you still make snowmen and snow angels? 

Yes! And we still go sleigh riding


Do you still have snow ball fights with your siblings/parents? 
No but I might throw a few at Mac lol


What's your favourite Christmas movie? 
Elf, Rudolph, Charlie Brown's Christmas, The Holiday, The Grinch (cartoon)



What do you plan to do for New Year's Eve? 
Well since we're moving the very next day, it won't be much. A few friends are still coming over. We'll see how this goes...


What are your usual traditions on New Year's? 
Usually we go to my friend Cheryl's to drink and play video games. It's fun and I'm sad this year we won't be able to do so

Got any resolutions? 

Lose 25 pounds, cook more, eat out less, spend more time with Mac & Sir. 

What do you usually get in your stocking?  
Mac absolutely SUCKS at putting anything in my stocking. Usually I throw stuff for myself in there, just to have something. We will be doing stockings next year lol


Well I'm stuck at work until 3pm, but I hope everyone else is enjoying their Christmas Eve festivities

Christmas Survey


I saw this done by Nikki and decided it would be so fun and festive to fill it out myself. I'm trying to get in the holiday spirit, but it's not really working. Maybe this will help

Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? Hot chocolate. Never had egg nog, but no drink should have the word Egg before it..

Colored lights on tree/house or white? Colored lights.

Do you hang mistletoe? Nope, maybe next year when we actually decorate for Christmas

When do you put your decorations up? Occasionally we'll do it Thanksgiving Day or the first week of December.  Anything before that & Mac complains it's "too soon".

What is your favorite holiday dish? Christmas around here is weird for us.  Usually we go to my dad's on Christmas Eve.  Mac & I bring Chinese and just hang out. Sometimes we'll go to Mac's family on Christmas, but usually we work the next day, so we just hang out at home. But pudding pie is one of my faves if we make it to a real Christmas dinner

Favorite Holiday memory as a child? My dad dressing up as Santa.  He'd do it every year. I never caught on, I just knew dad was never home when Santa came. It wasn't until YEARS later as I was looking through pics that I figured it out lol

When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? I'll always believe in Santa...he even has a twitter...he's gotta be real LOL

Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Now it's Christmas Eve, but as a kid it was Christmas Day. First it would be presents from my parents and grandparents from Florida and then we'd spend the day going to my Aunt's house and my grandparent's.

How do you decorate your Christmas tree? Cheap decorations from walmart.  This year we have a 2 foot tree with some glitter balls, a few lights and some red bows.

Snow! Love it or Dread it? HATE it! It looks pretty at first lol

Do you remember your favorite gift? All my jewelry from Mac

What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? Oh cookies and pudding pie

What is your favorite holiday tradition? Christmas Eve with my dad & either Mac's family Christmas Day or we go to the movies.  Last year we saw The Chipmunks..I'd like to do the same this year, but we'll see. Mac may go to his family's house.

Candy Canes: Yuck or Yum? I found some mint chocolate ones that I'm loving this season.

Favorite Christmas movie? Elf. Santa? I KNOW HIM!!!!

Saddest Christmas Song? Santa Bring My Soldier Home


What is your favorite Christmas song? Happy Christmas by John Lennon

What are some of your Christmas traditions?
