If MySpace Surveys Were Still Cool

We all get a little nostalgic for those bulletin surveys.

If MySpace Surveys Were Still Cool

If you were a middle schooler before 2010, it's pretty likely that you had an obsession with the bulletin surveys. You know, the ones that were titled "20 Things About Your Top 2" or "100 Random Facts About Me."

EVERYONE did them, and I'm among the guilty. So what if we took those 2005 surveys and fast-forwarded them to our 2015 selves?

About You

Favorite Color:
Why did we feel the need to tell every living person what our favorite color was? By the way, mine's black ...

Screen Name:
Sadly I've had the same username since I've had social media, so this question is kind of embarrassing.

Favorite Band:
Fall Out Boy forever.

Your Car:
What's up with this question? Truthfully anyone who used MySpace was too young to drive (I think). I wonder what my MySpace-self would have said to this.

Your Present Town:
First rule of Internet safety, don't tell strangers where you live. Good job, MySpace.

Your Crush's First Name:
I wonder how many middle school "relationships" this question has ruined.

Have You Ever

Kissed someone in the rain?
Honestly, we were all in like middle school. Most of us haven't even kissed someone yet. (Unless I'm just a giant loser ...)

Smiled for no reason?
What is this question?

Peed your pants after age eight?
Why would anyone want to publicly humiliate themselves by answering this question?

Talked to someone you don't know?
MYSPACE, c'mon! We're not supposed to talk to strangers!

Made out in a theater?
Good thing parents never figured out the whole MySpace thing, or a lot of kids would have been grounded.

Been in love?
I'm sure if I would have taken this in the appropriate time period, I would have had some super deep and pre-adolescent answer to this. But now, as an almost 21-year-old in 2015, the only true love I know is pizza.

Who was the last person to

Kiss you?
How many of us actually answered this question?

Tell you BYE?
BYE in all capital letters? Isn't that kind of intense, MySpace?

Write you a note?
It's 2015, we're texting now ...

Call your cell phone?
I don't know about anyone else, but I didn't even have a cell phone when I had MySpace.

Go with you to the movies?
I'm sure a past answer to this definitely would have been a large group of people, including whatever boy my little middle school heart was in to at the time. Now, it's just always my roommate and me. Girls' nights over everything.

Touch you?
... This is VERY promiscuous, MySpace.

Finish The Line

If i were a ...
So much leeway with this one. If I were a boy, even just for a day ...??? (Thanks, Bey.)

I wish ...
For world peace? To not be grounded? To be rich? What do MySpace users say to this?

So many people don't know that ...
*insert vaguely interesting fact about myself here*

I am ...
Hungry.

My heart is ...
What a loaded question for an Internet site full of, essentially, children. I bet we all said something like "in love" or "broken." I'm glad I came to my senses and realized that "my heart is" a very important organ.

Thank you to modmyspaces.com for keeping these epic surveys up on your site. Now I'm feeling nostalgic and am kind of missing the MySpace days.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
