The title contains all my alias; self proclaimed and not.
If you want the long version check out my about me section. This is going to be short and sweet, because I am not really into talking about myself, I rather talk about my opinions and problems. HAHA.
Anyway, I googled “most asked questions when getting to know someone” and found a pretty interesting set of questions at Thought Catalog. So I will answer all 40 question..NOT. I have decided to answer five at random. Nobody has time for 40.
Five Things Brettina
1. What’s an ideal weekend for you?
An ideal weekend would be getting out of Minnesota and escaping to a beach with all I can drink margaritas and a book on Black Panthers or a mystery novel. My ideal weekend is not the same as my reality weekend, which I usually spend napping, but when I dream I dream of the beach, tequila, and revolution.
2. Would you relocate for love?
NEVER. I would have at one point in life when I was young and love was whimsical and fun, but if I am going to relocate it will be for my dreams and my goals.
3.When have you felt your biggest adrenaline rush?
One of my favorite moments! I went to Colorado, back in 2013 to visit a friend, It was beautiful out there. Snowy mountains with warm gusts of wind and evergreen grass. Half way into my trip the guy I went to visit and his friends were discussing going to a “Devil’s punch bowl” where we would jump into the water from either a 20 foot or a 25 foot drop. I am DEATHLY, HORRIBLY, afraid of heights, BTW. I gazed down from 25 feet and decided that it might be best to jump from 20 feet. I climbed down the rocky edge to a small platform, barely sticking out of the mountain side. I stood there looking down. In my head I said:
“I will only give myself three minutes of panic and fear, I will jump soon after.”
After a minute I heard the snarky voice of the guy I flew miles to visit say “Shes not gonna-”
That’s all I heard, soon followed by my excited terrified screams accompanied by the feeling of flying. Next there was a splash. Cool water whipped me gently back and forth.
Honestly I do not like when people tell me what I can or can’t do, he learned that. And I learned what it felt like to fly.
4. If a genie granted you 3 wishes right now, what would you wish for?
a. Equality: Actual equality and knowing that there is not anyone or anything better than you. No comparing based on race, religion, gender, class, etc.
b. Own my Own Business: I want to own my own business and travel the world. I would wish for a million dollars, but there is no value in free money.
c. Health for my Family and Friends: That my family and friends are always healthy, especially my sisters, they have health problems and I would love for them to be healthy and happy.
5. What are you most thankful for?
My sisters. That will always be the case and my answer…most likely.
Well, that’s me. I would love to learn about you too. Please copy the questions above or pick your own.
