Have you ever participated in a boycott? What did you boycott and why?

I refuse to shop at Walmart. I haven't shopped there in about 4 years. Whenever anyone finds this out, they cleverly ask, "Has Walmart noticed yet?" But think, I don't shop there, my parents and my sister don't shop there. That's 4 people. What if EVERYONE refused to shop there? You have to start somewhere.

You Are the Bedroom

You are an indulgent person. You enjoy rest, relaxation, and pampering.
You know how to find peace in a crazy life. You are good at unplugging.

You tend to be very private. You don't let just anyone in.
You are also a romantic. When you have someone, you tend to be very couple oriented.

Your result for The Brutally Honest Personality Test...

Borefest - ISTJ

27% Extraversion, 47% Intuition, 67% Thinking, 67% Judging

One word. Boring. Sums you up to a tee. You're responsible, trustworthy, serious and down to earth. Boring. Boring. Boring.

You play by the rules. You follow tradition. You encourage structure.

You insist that EVERYBODY do EVERYTHING by the book. Seriously, is there even an ounce of imagination in that little brain of yours? I mean, what's the point of imagination, right? It has no practical value...

As far as you're concerned, abstract theories can go screw themselves. You just want the facts, all the facts and nothing but the facts.

Oh. And you're a perfectionist. About everything. You know that the previous sentence was gramattically incorrect and that "gramattically" was spelt wrong. Your financial records are correct to 25 decimal places and your bedroom is in pristine condition. In fact, you even don't sleep on your bed anymore for fear that you might crease the sheets.

Thankfully, you don't have anyone else to share the bed with, because you're uncomfortable expressing affection and emotion to others. Too bad.

The Creative Writing Class Meme Questionnaire

1. Do you believe aliens are real? Yes, I don't think they come down and experiment on people but it's hard to believe we're the ONLY planet on which life exists.

2. What is your favorite color? Blue. Or Green. Depends on my mood.

3. Myspace, Twitter or facebook? I use Myspace and facebook mainly for stalking people that I knew, but was never really friends with, or that I was friends with, and now have nothing in common with.

6. Who are your top five friends? I decline to answer this on the grounds that it may incriminate me.

7. Do you have a lover? Lover? Who says lover anymore? That's so 1985. I have a boyfriend. I hate saying boyfriend. It sounds like we're in 7th grade. Can I say I have a friend who I like spending lots of time with and cuddling? That takes too long.

14. What is your favorite movie? Bringing Up Baby -- You really can't get better than Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant.

15. Which would you rather be: a rich person with an attitude or a poor person who cares for everyone? Poor. Definitely poor. If I were a rich person with attitude, I would annoy even myself. Plus, even more people would hate me. I hate when people don't like me.

Some people might try to say that you're too controlling.

And while there is a controlling aspect to your personalty, you like to think you're competent.

You are an expert in many fields. You tend to really know your stuff.

You tend to take the reins whenever it's needed. You like to lead, and people like to follow you.

I cannot do it one more day. I spent from 3pm to 7pm today crying.

I peeled a condom off of my chalkboard today. That was one of the least offensive things that happened to me today.

2008-04-09T23:23:11Z

Okay guys, Jody got me excited about this "pay it forward" craft thing. Here's how it goes.

It’s based of the concept of the movie “Pay it Forward” where acts or deeds of kindness are done without expecting something in return, just passing it on, with hope that the recipients of the acts of kindness are passed on. So here’s how it works. I will make and send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment to this post on my blog. I do not know what that gift will be yet and probably won't get finished for a month or two, but it will get done. What YOU have to do in return, then, is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog.

So, the first 3 people to comment get something creative by Emmy!

Your home is a

Magnate's Manor

Your kitchen is someplace you never go, because you "have people for that." There's a Chocolatessen, which is rapidly becoming your favorite room of the house. Having one is also becoming a trend among your wealthy neighbors. Your master bedroom is the size of a small barn, with carpet thick enough to reach your ankles. Your study has hardback editions of every classic ever written, plus a special edition of Rich Dad, Poor Dad with the parts you ghost-authored highlighted. One of your garages holds your collection of ferraris, and is measured in acreage.

Your home also includes a guest wing and private quarters for your servants. Outside is your hedge maze and gardens, meticulously tended by a team of world-class botanists.

And, you have a pet -- a doberman pincer named "Warren".

Below is a snippet of the blueprints:
