heyimbren

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
Ew, I hate barbecued eel.

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
Twilight. And not just because I think the plot is lame. I thought the acting sucked. I don't know if this counts, but I also never liked Cinderella. I think it's because I thought her blue princess dress was ugly and I didn't like her updo and headband.

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
This is hard! Probably Classical Mythology. But I also really liked Intro to Political Theory!

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
the West Edmonton Mall. Because it's huge and filled with crazy things. I know it isn't the biggest mall in the world, but it's pretty incredible.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
I like it. It means I can start wearing cute sweaters and boots and patterned tights

tafft1

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
Jetsom

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
Napolean Dynamite, Seriously..wtf ??

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
Well I haven't taken any since high school..but my favorite were all the sciences

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
The freestanding arch in the midwest..St. Louis I wanna say..don't care if it's not a building it fascinates me

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
I love Fall. The leaves changing color , the baking and cooking , the colors , it is a great time. I have bittersweet feelings about it due to personal reasons but I try to honor those memories with new traditions of my own

HeartOverMind

1) Flotsom or Jetsom? They are both creepy.

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES? Batman: The Beginning

3) What was the best class you've ever taken? hmmm... there are so many to choose from. Almost all my top favs are English classes. But in college, English 102. I loved that class and that teacher. I'm going to be an English professor one day!!!  

4) What is the coolest building in the world?ummm... The Sears, I mean The Willis Tower. Even though in my heart it will always be the Sears Tower.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall? I love Fall. I love the crisp, cold air. Even though here in Illinois...it's still summer. BOOO!

Wrkn925

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
Stone me.  I had to google these.  Are we talking about shipwrecks?  I have no idea.
2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
American Graffetti and Sniper
3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
Cultural Ethics.  I had to REALLY think about my views and support them.  I changed a lot in that semester. Death Educatioin was a closs second, really interesting.  (I had a LOT of 300s to burn on useless stuff.)
4) What is the coolest building in the world?
To me, the B&B where I want to get married.  It was built in 1890.  It was "the" place to be in the 1920s.  There's pictures of flappers hanging off the balconies.  It's where my grandparents went on their honeymoon 62 years ago.
5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
I'm not ready, and my nose and throat are revolting.

Wrkn925

Umm, I read two backwards.  I LOVE American Graffetti and Sniper, no one wants to watch them with me.

I HATE anything with Will Ferrell.

Bec20

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
Flotsom.

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
My friends all thought the Harold & Kumar ones were hilarious, I thought they were the stupidest things ever.

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
IB History: The West and the World when I was in Grade 11.  My teacher was awesome, the class was awesome, and I got a university credit from it because I did higher level and got a high enough mark.  Favourite.  Class.  Ever.

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
This is a very difficult question, because I haven't been to a building I thought surpassed all of the other ones I've been to.  I love the look of the Eiffle Tower though.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
Kind of blah about it, to be honest.  I'm looking forward to Halloween and National Novel Writing Month now, but I'm not excited for the cold weather I know is coming soon.

notquiteblushing

1) Flotsom or Jetsom? Um, neither?

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES? Zoolander.  Seriously not funny.

3) What was the best class you've ever taken? Marxism - the professor was himself very interesting and it was a small seminar class that really got you thinking.

4) What is the coolest building in the world?  I like the Chrysler building.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall? Football yay.  Cold weather boo.

Bren, did you ever attempt to read the books?  This is one of those rare cases where the movies are actually better, because the books are just painful.

Bec20

I agree with Elle... I read all 4 of the books and have seen all 3 of the movies because, frankly, I want to see how it all turns out.  But Edward is creepy and controlling, Bella is annoying, and (spoilers? haha) Renesmee  is freaking ridiculous.

Thank you!

I admit I read the first book like it was crack and it didn't even bother me so much that Bella was annoying as hell because it transported me back to my teenage years.  The second was okay but the third book sucked and the fourth was the absolute worst book in the history of books.

I miss summer

noelle24

5) Love, love, LOVE!

PaigeMcC

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
Ursula. 

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
Twilight.  Effin' hate those GD stupid movies...

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
Only one?! I really enjoyed the History of the Holocaust.  I know that sounds morbid but it was an entire semester of discussions around the Holocaust...from every direction.  I found it very intellectually stimulating.  Oh, and my forensic anthropology class. OH! And my desktop publishing class...that was just hella fun!

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
There are so many cool buildings! The Inca temples in Mexico are hella cool tho...

IDK, really haven't been anywhere that I've seen a cool buidling.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
As much as I love flip flops, I'm happy Fall is here. Though in Southern California, fall is just a cooler version of summer.  But I love the idea of cuddling on the couch under a blanket and soups.

sapphirebaby926

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
Neither?

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
Superbad - I HATE that movie with a passion and everyone I know loves it. I'm pretty sure the whole point of that movie was to see how many times they could say the F word in it.

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
Hmm...probably a psychology class

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
I don't know - I haven't really seen any cool buildings in person so I don't have an answer

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
I like fall because it means it's not ridiculously hot anymore but I can still wear my flip flops

Beads921

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
No opinion.

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
Napoleon Dynamite...OMG! Awful!

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
Lifespan Development - I LOVED it! It's an interdisciplinary social sciences class, so it's psychology, sociology, and social work combined. We looked at how people develop physically and cognitively throughout the entire lifespan. It was so interesting, and I learned a lot.

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
Hmm...I don't really know. I'm not up on my wordly buildings. I think I vote for the ruins of my family clan's castle in Scotland, just cause I think it's cool that my ancestors had a castle.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
Depressed. Hello SAD! I hate fall and winter, and I'm really starting to feel the effects of decreased daylight around now. I'll adjust, but not until after the shortest day of the year.

ZOMG - Mine too! Our castle is near Loch Lomond

leia1979

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
Flotsom. It just sounds cooler.

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
Titanic. Also Beerfest. I gave up halfway though.

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
Gender & Communication. It was an eye-opener. Also risk management was cool, 'cause I don't like risk.

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
The Great Pyramid at Giza.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
I feel gypped. Where was my summer, dammit? But now that it's fall, it's going to be 90 this weekend (32 for my Canadian friends).

And to comment on Twilight, I also got sucked into the first two books, got through three, and barely got through number four. It's hard when you really just want to slap the protagonist and go, "What the F is wrong with you?!" I haven't seen any of the  movies.

jemmini6

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?  neither?

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?  anything with Ben Stiller in it.  He is seriously the worst actor EVER

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?  Probably one of my architecture studio classes.  I loved designing and building models, I just wasn't crazy about how little time they gave you to do so...

4) What is the coolest building in the world?  Off the top of my head, I LOVE Falling Water by Frank Lloyd Wright.  It's stunning

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?  It doesn't feel like fall yet.  Still in the low 100's.  But I love fall (when it actually cools off).

</strong>Posted by PaigeMcC[/QUOTE]

I love you, Paige.

Anyways in response to the books question - never read the books. I might get around to it someday if I run out of good books to read... which doesn't seem to be anytime soon seeing as I just devoured the first three Mortal Instruments Books and I'm now working on the Hunger Games. My sister has the entire Twilight series which she was obsessed with for all of a week, and won't get rid of them because she saved up weeks of allowance to buy them. She regrets this, poor thing.

[Deleted User]

1) Flotsom or Jetsom?
Don't know what they are, but I like the Jetsons cartoon

2) What movie do you HATE that everyone else LOVES?
Titanic - I'm a diehard romantic, but I seriously did not get all the hype about that movie

3) What was the best class you've ever taken?
College and HS were way too long ago to remember any of those classes, but I did take a couple classes on copper foil stained glass a few years ago that I loved - I haven't done any for a couple years, but I love stained glass

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
Chateau d' Chillon - it's a castle in Switzerland that my aunt traced one line of our roots back to - she was so excited when she heard my itinerary of my trip to Europe when I was 14 - I got to visit that castle - my friends on the trip were so excited that there was a personal connection, they were all bowing to me while we there.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
I'll let you know when it gets here...supposed to be high 90's for the next week.  It's ok, though, I like that it's cooler and I can do some baking and cooking in the oven more, but I love wearing shorts and hate it when I need to make the switch to pants.

4) What is the coolest building in the world?
I don't know if I know what the coolest building in the world. I will go with the Empire State Building.

5) How do you feel about it being Fall?
Ugh! Hate it! As soon as it was September it got COLD! Today it is 50 and WINDY! It's quite lovely. It also keeps raining, way too much. The temp keeps hovering in the 60's, so that paired with cloudy and rainy makes it gloomy and cold.
