I stole this survey off a friend's LiveJournal. Of course I put my own answers in instead of hers, though. Here goes.

1. Do you have messengers?
Yes, AIM, MSN, and Skype.
2. How much do you weigh?
About 180. More than I like, but not out of proportion.
3. Are you happy with the presidential election results?
No, not at all. I think it's very cool our country was ready to elect a black person, I just wish it hadn't been this particular one.
4. What is your perfume/cologne of choice.
Right now, it's one called Bodacious. But they've discontinued it. I'm not sure what it's going to be next.
5. What are your feelings on giving out second chances?
Second chances, yes. Beyond that, I have to think harder about it.
6. Would you date or marry outside your race?
Yes.
7. Do you plan on being an organ donor?
Yes. I have the little sticker on the back of my ID that says I want to be.
8. If the person you like has a significant other, do you automatically dislike said significant other?
No, that's completely unfair and immature.
9. Have you ever read an erotic story?
Yes, plenty of them.
10. What was your favorite toy as a child?
Wow, too many to name. Maybe my Tinker Toys and Legos, because I liked building things.
11. What did you do for Thanksgiving?
I spent the day with my boyfriend, and we went to two different dinners that friends of ours invited us to.
12. Did you like your elementary/middle/high schools?
Elementary school sucked, middle school was all right, but high school was awesome.
13. Do you prefer to work days or nights?
Days.
14. Do you still have a cassette player?
No, but I wish I did, since I've got a ton of cassettes I'd like to go through.
15. Is your city a safe one?
Most of it is, but there are definitely parts I wouldn't be caught in at night.
16. Do you carry cash?
Not usually. My debet card is easier.
17. How are you today?
Pretty good. It's been a relaxing day.
18. With whom did you last talk on the phone?
My friend Amy.
19. What kind of laundry detergent do you use?

1. Do you have messengers?
Yes, AIM, MSN, and Skype.
2. How much do you weigh?
About 125 lbs just right for my height.
3. Are you happy with the presidential election results?
Yeah, lets give someone a chance. We’ll see what will happen in the next six months, but pretty much you can not change things in that time frame. It requires a lot of work and new legislations. Lets just see how it goes.
4. What is your perfume/cologne of choice.
Right now I’m using Clinique Happy, but sometimes I like to use Dolce & Gabanna light blue for casual occasions.
5. What are your feelings on giving out second chances?
It depends on the situation. I don’t give second chances especially if the person screwed up the first time, but if he could give out a reasonable explanation as to what had happened, I might think about ti, but probably it would be a no because of trust issues. It would be hard to put things the way it used to be because instead of trusting him, you end up doubting him, and that would not be a good start.
6. Would you date or marry outside your race?
Yes definitely
7. Do you plan on being an organ donor?
No
8. If the person you like has a significant other, do you automatically dislike said significant other?
No, I agree with the last poster, that is completely unfair and immature. The person does not deserve to be in that situation especially if they never did anything bad to you.
9. Have you ever read an erotic story?
Yes, plenty of them most where pretty good, but some are very lame and corny.
10. What was your favorite toy as a child?
Hello Kitty house. it’s a small pocket size house with small chairs, tables, kitchen set, and a living room set.
11. What did you do for Thanksgiving?
I spent the day with my family, went to a friends house, ate lunch there, sang, watch a show, drank a little bit, went to Chicago afterward rented a hotel, walked around the city at night. Had coffee, went swimming for awhile, slept, and then went shopping the following day. It was tiring, but ti was so much fun. I really had a great time.
12. Did you like your elementary/middle/high schools?
Elementary school and high school were all right.
13. Do you prefer to work days or nights?
Days.
14. Do you still have a cassette player?
Yes, I have one, but I do not use it anymore. Its been awhile since the last time I played a tape there.
15. Is your city a safe one?
Yes, its safe out here in Chicago.
16. Do you carry cash?
Sometimes, but most of the time, I carry a debit card. Its more convenient.
17. How are you today?
Pretty good. It's been a relaxing day. I love the cold weather, its nice to take a short nap, drink hot chocolate, and read a book.
18. With whom did you last talk on the phone?
My sister
19. What kind of laundry detergent do you use?
Tide.
20. What are your plans for 2009?
Finish the rest of my program and take a test that would grant me a teaching certificate.
