The Florence Thing: Elaina Style
1. First name: Elaina
2. Were you named after anyone?: Does a DTD song count?
3. Do you wish on stars?: Only the shooting variety.
4. When did you last cry?: Yesterday.
5. Do you like your handwriting? Not when I'm writing fast enough for it to be useful.
6. What is your favorite meat?: Chicken. Shrimp.
7. What is your birth date?: November 7th, 1986
8. What is your most embarassing CD?: A Nelly CD that Masa gave me for my 15th birthday.
9. If you were another person, would you be friends with you?: Doubtful. I'd like to think I'm a decent human, but I'm most certainly a lousy friend.
10. Are you a daredevil?: I'm generally a wimp, but I've been known to suprise myself.
11. Have you ever told a secret you swore not to tell?: Hasn't everyone? I have.
12. Do looks matter?: Increasingly, suprisingly, no.
13. How do you release anger?: I started to say that I'm your typical door-slamming, tantrum-throwing bitchy bitch; flaming, but harmless. If we're talking anger that's been pent up though(which it has to be before it's released) ...then that's a whole nuther animal.
14. Where is your second home?: Bayside, Chiba.
15. Do you trust others easily?: Sometimes. I'm cynical, but ridiculously naiive. That would make me the queen of misjudgement.
16. What was your favorite toy as a child?: Anything that glowed in the dark.
17. What class in highschool do you think is totally useless?: None. Even if you don't end up using or remembering what you learned, your mind always benefits from the discipline of studying.
18. Do you have a journal?: Kind of a journal/prophecy book/quote book...thing. Florence and I tried our hand at some abstract Pollock-ish paintings. I stuck them on the cover. They closely resemble bird poop.
19. Do you use sarcasm a lot?: I used to. I learned it from ALISA!!!!! (hahaha!) I try hard to squelch it these days.
20. What are your nicknames?: I'm not very nickname-able, thank God. But I've been called Ena, Oui Oui (Don't ask.) El, E, Lainee, and Elijah.
21. Would you bungee jump?: Hell yeah!
22. Do you untie your shoes when you take them off?: Yes.
23. Do you think that you are strong?: Mentally? Physically? Spiritually? Emotionally? What is this question? Oh well: No, no, no, and no, respectively.
24. Shoe size?: 23.5-24
25. Red/Pink?: Pink
26. What is your least favorite thing about yourself?: The I-ness of my shyness. My insecurity, my selfishness.

point 20:
--you forgot Dulcinea !!
NEW BOOKS!!! AHHH, and white board markers! darnit i forgot these!
Hey, is it just me or are we totally different?
Oh no.
Dulcinea is a repressed memory.

What's kinmokusei?
He has more brain then you think Ryan.
Neen,
you know, those trees with the tiny clusters of orange flowers...
there's one right outside Bayside in the front yard, I think it blooms twice a year. That is certainly what heaven smells like.
point 19: I am ashamed, & Josh goes "yeah (snort) totally" I am sorry! I loved reading this. Much fun!
Ohhh! Those trees! Totally agree w/ u on that, that's one of my favorite things about this area.
I miss u too. Ganbatte!
