So…what is the Monday Poll?
Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007).
1. Last thing you read?
Ugh, I’m almost ashamed to admit it, but I just read an article online about the couples from “Love Is Blind Season 3,” a reality show I binged-watched on Netflix recently. Have you seen it? It’s BANANAS.
2. Cook a meal or order take out?
Depends on how tired I am at the end of the day! Lately, though, I’d much rather cook a quick meal at home because takeout is too salty.
3. What color is your hair right now?
Salt and pepper black and white with random pieces of reddish brown that peek through when the sun hits it.
4. What’s on your nails?
Lately OPI You Sustain Me (a creamy mauve) has been my boo.
5. Something you’ve been craving lately?
Sinigang na baka, which is a type of Filipino beef stew.
6. Do you cut your cuticles?
Nope. My mom used to cut hers back in the day and it just seemed like a lot of work.
7. What was it like growing up as the youngest/oldest/middle or only child?
I’m the oldest of two (it’s me and my brother, who’s six years younger), and for the most part being the oldest was really tedious. My parents were stricter with me, and the the expectations they had for me were soooo different compared to my little brother, who seriously got away with everything. Overall, though, being the oldest was alright. It’s nice not having to deal with an older sibling bossing me around.
8. What are your plans for Thanksgiving?
We’re keeping it mellow this year — just me, El Hub and Rosie will be chillin’ here at home. I might make a seven-layer dip. Or I might not. We’ll see!
9. Something you learned last week?
If it’s an option, buy the travel insurance, especially if you’re traveling with a kid. Also, eating chips makes me feel terrible afterward.
