Ever Heard of Bostin or Auston?

The first time I took this quiz, this was my answer...

You Are Austin

A little bit country, a little bit rock and roll. You're totally weird and very proud of it. Artistic and freaky, you still seem to fit in... in your own strange way. Famous Austin residents: Lance Armstrong, Sandra Bullock, Andy Roddick

What American City Are You?

I completely agree with the "little bit country, little bit rock and roll" but I wasn't too sure about the "artistic and freaky" part, so when I changed one answer that I wasn't convinced on anyways, I came up as...

You Are Boston

Both modern and old school, you never forget your roots. Well educated and a little snobby, you demand the best. And quite frankly, you think you are the best. Famous people from the Boston area: Conan O'Brien, Ben Affleck, New Kids on the Block

What American City Are You?

Which I also think is not a whole picture, so let me introduce you to

BOSTIN or AUSTON

You're a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll. Both modern and old school, you never forget your roots. Somewhat well educated and a little snobby, you appreciate the finer things. But you also have a weird streak that shows itself from time to time.

So let me pull out my New Kids t-shirt and my cowboy hat! Strangely enough, of all the blogs I have seen with this posted, these are the only two cities I've seen. Has anyone seen another city?

I know what I'll be reading...

Definitely Traditional

You Are a Traditional Christmas Tree

For a good Christmas, you don't have to re-invent the wheel. You already have traditions, foods, and special things you bring out every year.

What Christmas Tree Are You?

Not THAT Kind of Yankee...

I was over at Building the Ark and came across this quiz . I took it twice, because there were a couple of questions I could have answered different ways. The first time I got 50%, Barely a Yankee and the second time I got 48%, Barely a Yankee, so it seems the changes didn't really matter. Go ahead and find out if you are a Dixie or a Yankee. GO SOX! (just emphasizing again, not THAT kind of Yankee).

My Halloween Personality

What Your Halloween Habits Say About You

You're a friendly person, but not the life of the party. You like making someone else's day - and you'll dress up if you think of a really fun costume. You definitely think of yourself as someone who has a dark side. And part of having that dark side means not showing it. Your inner child is open minded, playful, and adventurous. You truly fear the dark side of humanity. You are a true misanthrope. You're logical, rational, and not easily effected. Not a lot scares you... especially when it comes to the paranormal. You are a traditionalist with most aspects of your life. You like your Halloween costume to be basic, well made, and conventional enough to wear another year.
