Express Yourself!

So I was going thru stuff on my laptop, cleaning up old documents, and I came upon a questionnaire of sorts that my sister and I had created when we were young. It was called "Express Yourself!" (no doubt inspired by Madonna) and we were going to email it to all our friends and then compile the responses. Of course that never happened and I saw this and remembered our old plan. And then I thought, why shouldn't *I* answer it anyway?

So, my own answers to the questionnaire are included below. If you, dear readers, (hyuk hyuk) want to answer any of them, you can post replies but just number the question. Or if you are particularly enthusiastic, you can answer the whole thing and email your reply to me at my Yahoo address. Enjoy!
