ms_scarletibis.1. Who was your first prom date?
His name was Greg. We weren't really that good friends, but I was a sophomore so I was just excited to go to a prom (it was his senior prom). I never saw him again after he graduated.
2. Do you still talk to your first love?
I've never been in love. If by "first love" you mean first serious boyfriend, or first boyfriend to want to marry me, then no on both counts. I actually don't still talk to any of my exes.
3. What was your first alcoholic drink?
Oh, boy. I don't remember. My mom was letting me try her wine when I was pretty young (she liked to pretend we were French). The first alcoholic drink I remember ordering myself was a strawberry daquiri. I was seventeen, but it was a cruise and the bartender liked me, so I didn't even need a fake ID. :)
4. What was your first job?
I worked at Acme (the supermarket, not the place where Wile E. Coyote gets his dynamite). I was a bagger/cart pusher for a while, then I worked in the bakery dept.
5. 1st car?
My 1985 black Subaru station wagon. My parents bought it in 1985, to have "a safe car for the baby." Sixteen years later, the baby was driving it. :) I have many fond memories of parts falling off the car while I was driving and telephone poles running into me.
6. Who was the first person to text you today?
I didn't get any texts today. I don't really text a lot.
7. Who is the first person you thought of this morning?
I don't remember... I don't really think coherent thoughts in the morning.
8. Who was your first grade teacher?
Miss Sharpe. She was old and cranky.
9. Where did you go on your first ride on an airplane?
Disney World. I was four, and I had diarrhea on the flight home, and the flight attendant had to take me to the bathroom because the plane was landing and my parents weren't allowed to get up, but I really, really had to go.
10. When you snuck out of your house for the first time, who was it with?
I never snuck out.
11. Who was your FIRST best friend and are you still friends with them?
Tess. She lived in the house behind mine when we were in kindergarten, but then she moved. We kept in touch until high school, but I haven't talked to her since then.
12. Where was your first sleep over?
Probably Tess's house.
13. Who was the first person you talked to this morning?
Charlene, the office secretary. Yes, that's right. I did not talk to a single person until I got into the office. It's just safer that way.
14. Whose wedding were you in the first time?
I haven't been in a wedding yet, despite having gone to at least 10 of them in the past few years.
15. What was the first thing you did this morning?
Looked out the window. It's that time of year where every day starts with a snow/ice check.
16. What was the first concert you ever went to?
I think it was James Taylor. I was pretty young (like, 8ish) and my parents took me.
17. First tattoo and piercing?
Never had a tattoo. I got my ears pierced when I was 8 or 9, and we went to the Piercing Pagoda in the mall. I cried and cried until my mother bought me ice cream. That made it feel much better. :)
19. Who was your first kiss?
My first boyfriend, Alex. I was fifteen, and he was seventeen, so he drove me home from school every day. He pulled into my driveway, and we went around to get something out of the trunk of his car, and then he kissed me.
20. When was your first detention?
Never had detention. I was a model student.
21. What was the first state you lived in?
Pennsylvania.
22. Who was the first person to really break your heart?
Ryan. Freshman year of high school. I had such a crush on him, and we ended up going to Homecoming together, but I found out about a week before the dance that he had a crush on someone else.
23. Who was your first roommate?
Alissa, my college roommate freshman year. She smoked a lot of pot and didn't go to classes, and eventually dropped out. That seems to be a pattern with my roommates, and it's been suspected that I have some sort of "slacker power" that causes people in close proximity to me to flunk out of school.
24. Who will be the first to repost this...

I think that contributed to my lack of binge drinking in high school and college - it wasn't a mysterious, forbidden thing, so I wasn't impressed. It also helped that I didn't like most of it (I'm still not a big fan of most beer or wine), so it's not like I was going to try to drink it on the sly.
