Idea copied from Christine Cackles....


A: If you were an Animal, which would you be?  Elephant. They are smart, nice, live long lives, fat and generally happy. What could be better?
B: Books, what's on your reading list? Currently reading Jane Eyre.  I was never required to read it for school (hmm, interesting reflection on the level of my English/Lit. courses), so I have been diving into it to see what this autobiography is all about.
C: Compulsive about anything? Must agree with Christine on this one...clean bathrooms but I HATE cleaning them.  Hair in the bathroom makes me cringe. 
D: Dreams - Do you dream in color? Do you remember them? I don't remember all of them, but when I do they are pretty standard (i.e. being chased or raped).
E: Eating - What's your favorite unusual snack? Right now, Combos. However, my food obsessions change on a monthly basis.
F: Favorite Things - Name a few: Top 5 are as follows: 
(1) Foot Massages.  I will walk into a nail salon and request this along with pay extra for it. 
(2) Handbags. I am a handbag designer so that one is obvious. 
(3) Shoes. The best compliment to a great bag is a great pair of shoes, right?! 
(4) Lip Gloss. Whenever I feel the need for a little change I always buy a new lip gloss.  Funny how I continuously buy the same shade. Refer to picture on the right, and yes, those all just came out of my bag.
(5) Dunkin Donuts. I cant start by day without iced coffee (winter or summer, always iced).
G: Giggles - What/Who makes you laugh? Lot's of people! If you are not laughing then you are not living life!
H: Hot - What/Who is 'hot' to you? Beyonce and Pierce Brosnan 
I: Fill in the blank: I am = feeling good!
J: Jealous of anything? Hmm...not of anything or anyone in particular but can't deny the feeling at some points
K: Also Known As: Carebear or Carr
L: (I think L got lost in the copy/paste.) 
M: Meeting People - How does it make you feel? I am a people person and love meeting new people. I get my energy from being around others.
N: Name - I was named after my great grandma Carrie Valentine.
O: Observant - What's around you right now? Some awesome people (have to agree with Christine on that one)
P: People - Who's special in your life? My fiance, my family and my precious, adorable, best niece/god-daughter Lucy Violet! Never knew you could be so proud of a 2 year old until she was born! See picture to the right.
Q: Any Quirks about yourself? I am corny and tend to bring out the quirkiness in others.
R: What do you do for Recreation? Run, Yoga, Read. My friend (@LindsayCHerman) actually made a tee-shirt that says "Runner, Reader, Yogi" pretty much sums it up. Love it.
S: Sing - Where do you do it? Have a favorite tune? Car. Beyonce (aka "B," we are tight)
T: What's at the Top of your To-Do List? Be a part of the rapidly growing company, PCG!
U: Any Unusual experiences? Several unusual eating experiences- Tricked into eating lamb nuts.  I was told they were like potato chips.  When I was in China we ordered chicken and shrimp, so out came a boiling pot and the chef dumped in the live, swimming shrimp, then out came the cooked chicken... with the beak, skin and feathers attached. I know it is custom to show how fresh the food is, but my appetite was not ready for that.
V: Vegas, Vienna, Venice...How far have you traveled? Favorite City? Italy, Spain and Hong Kong/China. Florence is an amazing city and I want to go back.
W: Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall...Favorite Season? Fall.
X: Ex's, things you don't do anymore and won't do again: Have to think, I'll get back to you on that one. 
Y: You - Name 5 things most people don't know about you: I love reading about the asian culture (I like to secretly believe that I have a little in my blood), I was an Asian Art minor and graduated a semester early from Gettysburg College, I am TERRIBLE at history and geography and not afraid to admit it, easily turn different shades of purple/red if I am embarrassed or trying to lie (if you know me then you know that fact), I am very blunt (once again, if you know me you know that fact as well) but I think that explains that I don't really hide anything from people. If you know me then you know what I am about. No secrets or surprises :)
Z: Zero to Zenith - Where are you in life? Happy place.
