So…what is the Monday Poll?
Λοιπόν, δεν είναι ακριβώς μια δημοσκόπηση. Είναι πολύ περισσότερο από ένα τακτικά εξελισσόμενο (devolvoling;), κάπως τυχαία λίστα ερωτήσεων που έχω βάλει στους αναγνώστες κάθε Δευτέρα το πρωί για τα τελευταία 11 (!) Χρόνια. (Είναι σαν ένα kickstart για τον εγκέφαλό σας.) Έχω πάντα ευχαρίστηση να διαβάζω τις απαντήσεις σας στα σχόλια και ελπίζω να απολαύσετε την ανάγνωση του ορυχείου.
1. Raspberry berets or little red Corvettes?
Raspberry berets (but only the kind you can get from a second-hand store).
2. would you rather be able to teleport or fly?
This is such a hard question because, in my mind, I can see myself, like, floating above streets and my neighborhood and dipping up and down through the clouds. Like, it’s so clear in mind, so the journey would be incredible if I could fly, but then there’s something equally alluring about teleportation and being complimentary of all the frills and bullsh@t. Basically, you just get there, wherever there is. I need to go to Paris — BAM! Είμαι εκεί. I need to visit my parents in the Philippines — BAM! It’s instantaneous.

But then I wonder, could I teleport with luggage? would I have to do it naked, like they had to do in Terminator? At least if I could fly I could put all my crap in a backpack or strap my luggage to my torso…
3. leather or lace?
Lace today because I want to channel the kinder, gentler side of K-dog.
4. would you rather pay full price now for the LE luxury eye palette of your dreams, or wait a month to get it for 50% off and risk it potentially being sold out?
I don’t like to gamble, but in this case I would take the risk and wait, because deep down inside I am my mother’s daughter, and I love a sale.

Plus, it’s the appeal world, you know, and chances are another dream palette will come along in a month or two or three.
5. What’s the last concern you conquered?
I joined a mom’s group a few months back in the hopes that I’d make a lot more friends, but I wasn’t really successful after the first few event. Well, instead of doing the same thing again, which would have been to go to another event and not speak to anybody, I emailed the president and asked her what I could do to get the most out of the club and make a lot more friends and build a network, and that small act… I mean, it was a small act of bravery for me because I chose not to sit back and let things happen to me, so I felt like I took the reins.
At the next get-together, the president of the group pulled me aside, and we talked for a really long time. She suggested that I join the board (which i’m still considering), gave me her number and said I could call her anytime, and introduced me to a few of the board members.
It got the ball rolling, and I think I’m getting something out of it.
Καλή Δευτέρα
I’m not always ready to face Monday, but I’m always ready to face Idris Elba. I rented a motion picture last weekend with him and Kate Winslet in it called The mountain between Us, and even though it was stressful because it’s basically… I’m not gonna tell you the entire story, but there’s a plane crash, and Idris and Kate have to find their way out of this snowy mountain situation… Anyway, it has Idris and his silky smooth voice.
So, I hope that no matter how lots of times you find yourself rolling your eyes internally today, you can think of Idris saying, “My darling, you’re gonna be OK. We’re gonna get through this.”
That’s what I’m gonna do today. “We’re gonna make it.” That’s what he said throughout the movie.
Yes, Idris, we’re gonna make it.
