Julie Andrews 

1. “All love shifts and changes. I don't know if you can be wholeheartedly in love all the time.”
Have ever felt that you’ve been in love with someone constantly over a long period of time?

"Constantly" is certainly NOT the word for it, but I have loved someone for a very long time. I agree with Julie here.

2. “I am an optimistic lady.”
How optimistic are you?

Depends. Generally, I prefer to stay I'm pragmatic but I do try to find something good to say about most situations.

3. “I don't think today's younger audience... would even know what 1920s musicals were like.”
Do you have any knowledge of 1920 films or musicals? If yes, any favorites?

Nope. I have heard of "The Jazz Singer" but haven't seen it. Do know a bit more about movies from the teens, though: "Birth of a Nation" and "Battleship Potemkin" and so forth.

4. “I hate the word wholesome.”
Play word association. I say “wholesome” and you say:

Disney. Or, nowadays, VeggieTales.

5. “I have always wished I could learn to be a potter. I love collecting ceramics; it would be so fulfilling to create something lovely.”
What have you always wished that you could be?

A writer. Yeah, but, for pay.

6. “Perseverance is failing 19 times and succeeding the 20th.”
Tell us about something that you had to persevere through.

Parenting.

7. “Some people regard discipline as a chore. For me, it is a kind of order that sets me free to fly.”
How do you define your self discipline?

"Severely lacking in all ways." Right now I should be prepping for Friday night's lockin. I have not done one.single.thing. Help.

8. “Sometimes opportunities float right past your nose. Work hard, apply yourself, and be ready. When an opportunity comes you can grab it.”
Have you ever missed a golden opportunity?

I'm sure I have. I try not to dwell on it, that's for sure.

9. “In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun and... SNAP! The job's a game!”
Have you ever had that perfect job that was always entertaining?

My current job is rarely boring, believe it or not.

10. “Sometimes I'm so sweet even I can't stand it.”
Has anyone ever considered you as sweet?

Yes. Hateful, hateful, hateful! It's like "nice"--who wants THAT on their tombstone?!
