Post by Wanderista on Apr 18, 2014 10:21:24 GMT -5
1. How did you find GBCN? I stumbled across the switch to GBCN from TN right around the time it happened. I was literally thinking, "Hey, I'll check TN out," in the days right around the shift. I joined the IL board because my ex was foreign.
2. What's your favorite dessert? I like desserts with fruit like Thai bananas or fruit pies such as cherry pie or blueberry pie or cobbler. Basically if it's got something like bananas or berries or coconut, I go crazy. I also love ice creams/gelatos/sorbets/etc.
3. Story behind your SN? I like to travel.
4. Any pets? kids? I sort of co-own a pair of dogs. I also have a cat. She's a 5.5 yr old shelter kitty. No kids.
5. Favorite color? Blue.
6. What brings you to SO? I had a horrible break up. I also liked the subject matter of the topics. It seemed like fun and has a cool theme. I didn't really lurk. I just didn't want to talk about my break up or changing life on IL. I probably spent 2 days checking the board out and then I started posting. I should add that I'm really over that break up now. I like being part of a board for the single/dating/not all married with kids crowd. I relate to that better than to most of the other boards.
7. Cruise or island (if neither, what's your ideal vacation spot)? I love so much variety when I travel. It's hard for me to answer that.
8. Favorite hobby/past time? Spending time with my friends. I'm also open to doing lots of different things.
9. Have you ever been to a GTG or would you? If you did, were you nervous?! I have been to one last summer shortly after I joined the board. I wasn't nervous, I like to be social.
10. Favorite color Starburst? If no Starburst love, favorite chocolate treat? I don't have a Starburst color preference. I like them but haven't had them in ages. I am actually not incredibly into chocolate. I don't have a big sweet tooth. I do like Nutella and Ferrero Rochers so I guess that I love chocolate with hazelnut.
11. What's your favorite drink? What kind of beer, wine or mixed drink? I prefer cider to beer. My favorite cider is Magner's. I do love Belgian fruit beers such as raspberry and cherry beers. When I do drink beer I prefer it to be lighter. I can enjoy an occasional Peroni, Stella or Eastern European beer (Russia's Baltika, Croatia's Ožjusko, etc). I prefer white wine to red and my favorite is Sauvignon Blanc preferably French. I like some other French whites like Viognier. Riesling is good in a pinch too. I also like Croatian, Georgian and other similar beers and wines when I can find them. I love Croatian Malvasija which is kind of like Sauvignon Blanc. For mixed drinks, I like a good screwdriver or mojito. Sometimes I like to mix it up and try something new.

8. Dancing like a stripper. I seriously love slutty dancing and I don't care who knows it!

I don't really recall being nervous - I generally don't worry too much about meeting new people. I find larger groups harder to navigate so maybe if I went to a big one I'd feel more nervous.
10. Favorite color Starburst? If no Starburst love, favorite chocolate treat? I love the red ones but pink is a close second.
11. What's your favorite drink? What kind of beer, wine or mixed drink? Beer depends on the season, now that it's summer I'll be drinking a lot of Bell's Oberon. I generally like wheat beers. I like shiraz or pinot noir for wine, and I love bloody marys or dirty martinis. Sometimes I'll order a vodka and diet coke if I'm feeling really boring.

8. Favorite hobby/past time? Shopping (my wallet literally yelled "OUCH" as I typed that, lol)
9. Have you ever been to a GTG or would you? If you did, were you nervous?! Sort of. Does Dirty Girl count? doriswe and bullygirl979 did the Dirty Girl Mud Run with me and some of friends last September. I was a little nervous, because I'm shy like that, but they were so much fun and put me right at ease
10. Favorite color Starburst? If no Starburst love, favorite chocolate treat? Orange starbursts are my favorite. Followed by the lemon
11. What's your favorite drink? What kind of beer, wine or mixed drink? I drink too much Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi. When I drink alcohol, it's usually Bud Light Lime. I'm trying to get into wine more and I don't really care for mixed drinks. I'd rather do shots.
You also introduced me to good wings. And met my bf.
OH!!! I am SO sorry. I was typing fast as I'm starving and am late for lunch. Forgive me? (rose) (rose) (rose)
Yes, I met chalupa and her bf for chicken wings. Again. I must have a GTG theme going on, lol. I wish we could have spent more time together (I'm always up for going to Niagara Falls even if it is in my "backyard").
