grew up at midnight pt. 4

Yes, I am still posting away. I feel I am doing better than the last time. Last time I did this, I was still posting until the middle of the month. I blame the fact my body really loves sleep at the moment after an insane holiday season. 

Recently someone asked me why I didn't include the question "What is your New Year resolution?", I didn't include that question because:

1. I don't believe in them
2. Everyone usually says the same thing (eat healthier, go to the gym more, quit smoking, blah blah blah blah blah)
3. Resolutions should be personal and for that person to know and a select others

Also, remember to click the hyperlink on the name's to see their amazing work! 


Your current location:
Now at my folks' house in Houston, (usually, London, UK)

Where/how will you be spending NYE (bar, club, friends house, etc)?
I will be bar hopping with the hubby and parents I believe around downtown Houston. But we're going to start off with a dinner of hors d'oeuvres and drinks.

What is the one song that really gets you ready to go out?
Can't say I have any go-to songs of the moment, generally any album I'm obsessed with currently. But I might suggest a mind-numbing video of Gandalf doing the euro pop nod.

What is your biggest guilty pleasure song of 2012?
Guilty pleasure song of 2012, would it be bad to say I never really feel like I have guilty pleasures? I take after my parents in being hard to embarrass. The only time I feel a little awkward is when I try sneaking in a new song I enjoy several times throughout the work day. I'm the office dj.

What is the one song that always gets you on the dancefloor?
Pop songs from 2006, and many hip hop songs of the 90s get me on the dance floor.

What would you spin if you were the dj?
I jump all over the place with my music, so anything from ethiopian jazz to 60s women to dad rock, maybe some contemporaries as well...

What drink will you be holding throughout the night?
'm going to play it by ear on the drinks tonight. Champagne and wine are a guarantee with my parents in toe, but my dad loves his whiskey and hoppy beer, so I can go anywhere.

Who do you wish you could kiss at midnight (celebrity or non)?
I plan on kissing my bunny hubby tonight... wishes though, best kept a secret (ha).
 What do you do after the party (go to another location, go home and crash)?
think I've become the granny of any group, so I'll probably want to crash in from of the tv.

Your hangover cure?
I’m a big fan of sticky rice and soy sauce, mac n cheese, matzoh ball soup. It depends on what city or part of the world I'm living in and what I have easy access to.

I'm looking forward to earning more, saving more, and spending some in the new year.
