Thursday Surveys/Awards: A collection of junk :)

Awards:
The lovely Chelsea at Cream & Cotton gave me this cutesy award. I like memes and since this is the day before my last day at work (meaning all I'm doing is cleaning out my Firefox bookmarks and throwing away junk), I am going to participate in a few Thursday things. =) If you aren't reading her blog, you should. She likes alcohol. It's a good time.

The rules

• Accept and thank the person who gave it to you!
• List 10 things about yourself
• List 5 additional things you DON'T like
• Then pick ten people to give this lovely award to!

10 things about me...

1. My favorite color is green. And pink. And occasionally turquoise.
2. I have a slight Cherry Coke Zero addiction and any time I see Coke Zero on a fountain I get *very* excited.
3. I prefer soda from a fountain -- just like I prefer my beer to come from a tap.
4. I spend entirely too much time on the internet, and I constantly feel "busy."
5. I drive a car that I'm surprised is still running. Here's to getting a pay raise and hopefully (cross your fingers!) getting a new ride before the year is up.
6. I love love love live music. I don't care if they suck, it's still fun to have a drink and watch a show.
7. I wish I had more time to play with the puppies.
8. I love checking out sales online -- even when I know I won't buy. I just like to "research" the deals so when I *do* have money to blow, I know where to head!
9. I refuse to shop at Wal-Mart. I don't know why. Maybe it's the scary clientele or the never-ending lines?
10. I have been in graduate school since 2007. Just for the record, a master's degree is only supposed to take two years. Hello, I'm far behind.

And 5 things I don't like...

1.Being cold.
2. Guinness -- I wish I liked it, but I just can't stomach it!
3. Humidity. I love Florida, but this humidity makes my hair a hot mess.
4. Being bored on a Friday night.
5. Jellyfish. Call me terrified after a snorkeling incident in the Keys. You would think that living on the Gulf of Mexico would have made me used to creepy crawlers in the sea, but it has not.
