All About Me

A personal Q&A about myself

All About Me
Emily Haupt

I had a busy week. Between work and homework, I really did not have much time to get out of the house, so I didn’t get any inspiration on what to write about this week. I thought it would be different to answer some questions about myself so you guys can relate to me more and get a sense of who I am and where I come from. I did not make these questions up on my own, so I have to give credit where credit is due.

Who is your hero?

I would have to say my dad is my hero. He never gives up and is always there for his family. He is 51 and is still riding in 150-mile bike races and gets up every other day at five in the morning to play basketball.

What would you change about yourself if you could?

I know people might get frustrated when I say this but I think I would change my weight.

What really makes you angry?

I think what makes me the most angry is when people judge and make fun of others just to make themselves feel better.

What are your religious viewpoints?

I’m a Christian.

What is your favorite game or sport to watch and play?

I love playing basketball. I’ve played since I was six years old, but I like to watch baseball.

Have you ever had a nickname? What is it?

My teammates used to call me the purple monster because at basketball camp in eighth grade I was on the purple team.

Would you rather win the lottery or work at the perfect job? And why?

I know some of you might say “yeah right,” but honestly, I think work at the perfect job because having a job gives you a sense of worth and I wouldn’t want to become privileged and lazy.

What are your hobbies?

I like playing basketball, exercising, hanging an having fun with my friends, chilling with my family, and taking pictures.

List two pet peeves.

When people talk behind someone’s back and then 0.5 seconds later are back to being best friends and when people judge a book by its cover.

How many pillows do you sleep with?

I sleep with three. I have my two regular pillows and my long body pillow.

What's the longest you've gone without sleep (and why)?

I have gone 49 hours without sleep before because I procrastinated and had to stay up to finish a big chemistry lab report.

How often do you buy clothes?

Not as often as a lot of girls. I used to be bad with that but since I started working I wanted to spend my money on concert tickets, sporting events, etc. So I buy new clothes maybe once a month.

Are you a clean or messy person?

I am definitely a clean person I hate when things are messy and dirty.

What's your favorite movie?

Now You See Me or Now You See Me 2

If you could live anywhere, where would it be?

I would like to live in Greece or Australia. I think they are both breathtaking.

What is your biggest fear?

I know this is a little over the top but my biggest fear is drowning. I also hate spiders and not a fan of heights.

What did you want to be when you were small?

I used to want to be a teacher.

What two radio stations do you listen to in the car the most?

Since the radio stations are different everywhere I listen to country (not the twangy kind) and I listen to today’s hits.

Do you love or hate roller coasters?

Since I hate heights I’m not a fan of roller coasters and if I do ride them my eyes are shut the entire time.

What's your favorite fast food chain?

Sheetz because you can also be healthy there even though I usually never pick the healthy options.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
