The Bottom Line Read this to learn more about tkd_grant.
These write-offs sure are fun… Here’s my entry.
1. Approx how big (sq feet) is your house/condo/apartment, etc?
I live in a house, and I believe it’s 1800 square feet (way too small for four people!)
2. What is the coolest thing YOU think you own and would like to share with us?
I really don’t think I have anything out of the ordinary, but I’d say the coolest thing I own is this big Aztec calendar that hangs on the wall behind my bed. It’s really big and colorful; I bought on Olvera Street in downtown Los Angeles. At least I think it’s cool…
3. Do you have any undiscovered or hidden talents? If so, what?
Well, my main talents (I guess you could call them talents) are tennis and Taekwondo, but I guess playing the piano is one of my hidden talents. I generally don’t talk about to people, mainly because it’s really not that interesting. I’ve been playing since August of 1999, and I typically play bluesy pieces (not into classical).
4. Using no more than 10 nouns, and ONLY nouns, describe yourself. You may explain your choices or not as you see fit.
Music – love all types of music (read my reviews and you’ll see my various musical tastes)
Computer – always surfing the web, wasting many hours
Tennis – a sport I’ve been playing for many years
Taekwondo – Korean martial art I’ve been doing for a little over a year (I’m a brown belt)
Books – I like reading teenage novels… Such as The Outsiders
Family – the people I think I love deep down inside, but for the most part get constantly on my nerves
Friends – it’s fun hanging out, going to parties, seeing movies… it’s all good
School – something I’m excited about now (I’m gonna be a freshman in the fall), but also something I’ll probably hate halfway through the school-year
Movies – love going to see movies in the theaters, but get bored watching them at home (I guess it's because there's too many distractions)
Food – yum… love everything from sushi to ice-cream
5. What was your first car?
I’m 14, so I don’t have a car. I would like an F150 or maybe a Toyota Tundra for my first car though.
6. Do you have any pets? If so, what?
Yeah, I’ve (my family) got plenty of pets… A bird, a dog, 5 cats, and a snake.
7. What's your favorite restaurant?
There’s so many to choose from… I like Souplantation, Teri Café, Benihana’s, Islands, and more.
8. If you could have plastic surgery right now and change anything about yourself, what would you change?
I would change my nose. My nose if kind of big (but not huge) and has a slight arch near the top that I really don’t like.
9. What is the most you've ever eaten in one sitting?
I guess Thanksgiving is when I normally eat the most. You’ve got to have everything you know – turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, salad, rolls, fruit salad, sweet potatoes with marshmallows, and then there’s always dessert.
10. What has been your most scary moment in life?
A year or two ago, I was on the way home with my sister and we were turned to go down on this blind hill, and all of a sudden this chick comes speeding over the hill and hits us, but doesn’t do much damage (barely any at all). But still, it got me all freaked out.
11. Do you follow trends?
Sometimes, sometimes not. It depends on if I like it or not. For instance, I never really got into the whole spiked-hair thing, but I did and still do wear skater shoes (even though I don’t skate).
12. If you were told right now that you've won a 70 million dollar lottery, how would you spend the moolah?
I would by many houses/mansions around the country – probably Los Angeles/Beverly Hills, NYC, VA/DC/MD area, and other areas. I would travel the world. I would buy many fancy cars including Corvettes, Vipers, Escalades, Bentleys, etc.. And I’d probably buy some nice gifts for my family and close friends. And I might even give some to charity… who knows?
13. Have you ever gone toilet-papering? If so, tell us:
Haha… Yes I have. The most recent time was when I went with my small 8th grade class and we got the principle and a few teachers we REALLY hated. I loved every minute of it! And the other time I went TP’ing was quite a while ago, and though it was fun, the only real memorable moment was when I got my first French kiss. :)
14. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be?
I’d really love to visit Europe – my top spots would be London and Paris. Australia would probably pretty darn cool as well.
15. Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?
Ten years from now I see myself sleeping under a tree in Central Park begging people for food and money. Just kidding. I’m not really sure yet. I would like to see myself back East somewhere, already graduated from college, and making lots of money. :)
16. Ever gotten ultimate revenge on someone?
Nope, not really. When people piss me off, I’ll either be really quiet, or I’ll be all talk (4 letter words are always the best!). But I kick my brother’s ass all the time. :)
