Yours truly...

Where were you born? Logan, UT
Middle name: I do not have one of those...
How old will you be this year? 26
Nicknames: Bean, Ginabean, Queen Bee, Brig
Are you taller than your mother or father? A couple inches taller than my momma, a couple of inches shorter than my pops...
Do you cry often during movies? Depending on the movie and my mood...yeah, I do.
What is your biggest pet peeve? Loud eaters. It almost KILLS me...
Favorite color: Toss-up between brown and blue.
Favorite foods: Oh, what a difficult question to answer! I heart lots of foods! I LOVE Mexican food, and I'm a fan of New York Cheesecake, chicken salad sandwiches, fresh Brigham City peaches, crunchy fresh vegetables, homemade apple pie, and a variety of soups. And lots of other foods.
Favorite restaurants: Texas Roadhouse, Costa Vida, Famous Dave's, and...I dunno, I really like the hometownsy places too. And there's a chain in Vancouver, BC, called the White Spot which I really enjoy. (I hope this is the LAST food question, geez!)
Favorite beverage: I'm telling myself that it's water. One day, I hope to believe me.
Favorite cold cereal: Cranberry Almond Crunch. (It used to be Blueberry Morning, but they changed it. In a bad way.)
Favorite smells: Clean babies, the smell of rain, fresh-baked bread and/or cinnamon rolls, and certain hot man colognes.
Favorite time of day: After work when I get to chill with my roommates and other friends.
What brand of shampoo/conditioner do you use? I switch it up. Currently I'm using Fructis
Favorite make-up products? Mostly I'm a Mary Kay girl, but I also like Almay eye shadow.
How many pillows do you sleep with? 1, but I switch off during the middle of the night. Seriously, I go to bed with one pillow (and my other one on the floor next to the bed) and typically wake up with the other pillow under my head. (I can tell because they are very different pillows, and in very different pillow cases.) Strange...
Do you play an instrument? I can play a select few songs on the piano.
Have you ever been skinny dipping? Nope. I was going to go once, but the plans fell through. And I was kind of grateful.
Did you do any sports in High School? I ran track and cross country until I started (and continued) to vomit after every race. Ew. I also did Color Guard...but we were good; military style, not ballet with flags. Make fun of me and I'll bust your chops.
What was the last movie you saw in the theater? 27 Dresses. And I watched it for James Marsden, I will not lie.
What is your favorite article of clothing? Jackets/sweaters
What is your dream vacation? I have already been on my dream vacation, and it was better than I had dreamed (Scotland). So, recently...my dreams have taken me to Greece.
If you were an animal what would you be? I don't really like this question...um, let's go with...a white tiger? Sure. I'd be a white tiger.
What is your favorite "me-time" activity? Napping, blogging, and writing letters/emails to friends and family. And reading.
Favorite TV shows: 3rd Rock From the Sun, House, and The Office.
What is your dream car? I rather like my Nissan Altima. But I think I'd love a GMC Envoy...not because I know anything about its performance, but because it's pretty and I think I want an SUV (if only I wouldn't have to prostitute my blood to pay for fuel, eh?)
What is one of your weaknesses? I get worked up over things I ought not get worked up about. The tension and stress typically doesn't last long, but still...
What do you fix for dinner when there's nothing to fix? Hot pockets, if I have any. Otherwise it's a sandwich or canned soup.
If you could live in a different decade/era which one would it be? Back in the days of Jane Austen...but just for a couple of weeks. And only if I was living in high society. (haha...jk)
Do you consider yourself outgoing? Yeah, for the most part.
What is something you are constantly working on? Relationships with my family and friends, because that's what my life is all about. Also, self-improvement...
Any hidden talents? I love to write poetry, and this is a rather recent development (in the past year or so).
What is a word or phrase you overuse? I know there are some "gina-isms" but I can't think of any right now. I'll have to ask my friends.
What was the hardest thing that happened to you this past year? My life is great, actually. And I try to forget the bad...I honestly can't remember off the top of my head.
What is the best thing that happened to you this past year? I went to Scotland!!!
What is one thing you hope to accomplish this year? Make a difference for the good.
The best piece of advice you learned this past year? "Boys may come and boys may go, but girlfriends are forever..."? I'm kidding. Um...look for the good; and if things look really bad, dig deeper, because there's something good in every situation. (That wasn't so much "advice" as it was "experience.")
Who are the 7 people you are going to tag to do this survey? Whoever wants to play!

At the end of the survey post a picture of you that was taken within the last week.

Me and my cute Aussie friend, Katelyn.
This was taken at our branch St. Patrick's Day party...

That is funny. I read a book about a place that is set up for the time of Jane Austin. It was called Austinland. It's very scary because it reminded me somewhat of my sick twisted mind. If you want to live in that time period for a few weeks, you should read it. Sorry, I don't remember who wrote it.
Also, I didn't realize that you and Danika were roomates. How fun! She is awesome.
