21. If you are in a bad mood, do you prefer to be left alone or have someone to cheer you up?
I'd rather be left alone if I'm in a bad mood. Anyone who tries to "cheer me up" oftentimes just ends up getting on my nerves and making my mood worse. I'm better off being left alone to cool down. 22. What’s an ideal weekend for you? An ideal weekend is one spent hiking or even just relaxing with friends, or going to see a movie with my dad. 23. What do you think of best friends of the opposite sex? A good portion of my close friends are male, and I think that it's great when guys and girls can get along as best friends. So often, particularly in today's society, guys and girls are idealized as lovers rather than friends when in reality, friendship shouldn't have a gender-bound code. Not only does it widen the horizon on the many different personality types you'll meet, it also opens the door for many new relationship possibilities. All good relationships start as friends first. 24. Do you judge a book by its cover? I try not to, but I've come to accept the fact that everyone makes snap judgements whether they want to or not. I just try to not actively follow along with my snap judgements without good reasoning to back them up. 25. Are you confrontational? I am incredibly non-confrontational. If I have a problem with someone, I try to resolve it on my own before dragging them into it too... and I try to make certain that I'm not making a mountain of a mole-hill. On the other hand, this doesn't mean I won't argue solid points if someone tries to confront me. I've actually heard one of my friends say "Something to remember is to never confront Maddie, because she'll destroy your argument with logic until there's nothing left to argue." 26. When was the last time you broke someone’s heart? I honestly have no clue. It's not like I go around keeping track of how many hearts I break, you know? Not something I'm proud of, and if I ever have "broken a heart" it wasn't intentional. In fact, it was probably an act of self-preservation. 27. Would you relocate for love? Possible, but not likely. The only reason this is even marked as possible is because I do want to travel in the future, once I've saved a good amount of money up. If I happen to be in a steady long-distance relationship and I like the location, I may re-locate. I highly doubt this, though. 28. Did you ever write a journal? Nope! The closest thing I have to a journal is this blog, and my thoughts and feelings are a bit muted here since they're being broadcast to a public audience. 29. What are you most thankful for? I'm most thankful for my amazing relationship with my dad and my awesome friends. 30. Do you believe in second chances? I believe in entirely too many second chances, if I'm honest. I'm an incredibly forgiving person, unless whatever was said or done is bad to an extreme that I find horrific and inhumane. I don't forgive people who treat others poorly for no reason. 31. What’s the one thing that people always misunderstand about you? People tend to misunderstand that any fact I say, I've backed up with research. I actually do take the time to read up on obscure topics and I research what interests me... but when I throw out facts in conversation, most people assume I'm just running my mouth and have no clue what I'm talking about. 32. What is your idea of a perfect vacation? I don't have an idea of a perfect vacation, honestly... though I did enjoy our cross-country road trip last summer. It was week-long and the sights seen along the way to San Francisco were incredible. In fact, I want to re-take the trip when I'm 18 along with some friends. You can read (and see photos from) this trip under the 'Travel' category of our blog. 33. What did your past relationship teach you? My past relationships have all taught me to not settle for less than I deserve... and that's the bottom line. 34. What are your thoughts on online dating or tinder? I (personally) think that both are pointless and a waste of time, but if it works for you then more power to you! 35. What’s on your bucket list this year? I want to hike Mt. Monadnock with friends again, and I'd like to complete driver's ed and get my license. If possible, I also want to get my first job. 36. When have you felt your biggest adrenaline rush? Fighting during either of my black belt tests. I've never felt more emotionally or physically alive than in those last fighting minutes of my tests. 37. What is the craziest thing you’ve ever done and would you do it again? The craziest thing I've ever done was probably the black belt test I mentioned above... and yes, I'd obviously do it again. It's roughly 6 hours of physical torture, but it's the best type of torture if you ask me. 38. If a genie granted you 3 wishes right now, what would you wish for? 1). I'd wish to always have enough money in my pocket to do whatever I wished to do. 2). I'd wish to already have the knowledge I would've received from high school courses, but to already be graduated with A's in all classes. 3). I'd wish to know what happens after death. 39. What’s your biggest regret in life? I don't harbor regret. I see it as a waste of energy, since regret can't change the past. Nothing can change the past, so it's best to just learn from it and move on. 40. What do you think about when you’re by yourself? Everything and anything, but mainly whatever task is set in front of me.
