Get to know Ashley

What's your REAL hair color?
My real hair color is dark brown. My hair stylist told me one day I "definitely need to go lighter for the summer". I'm not a huge girlie-girl, so usually I just look at her and nod, without really knowing what she's going to do and just hope it turns out alright. I left with a blonde head of hair and it was a pretty intense change, but I've gotten used to it now. But, my drivers license still has me with dark hair, and trying to go out on the weekends is impossible. Most clubs won't let me in because they don't believe it's me in the picture, most people think I'm a natural blonde. Until now.
If you had to choose your last words right now:
If I was able to choose, I would definitely want my last words to be telling my family and loved ones goodbye. But with my luck it'll probably be more like "oops, I shouldn't have done that."
When are you going to tell your parents you're on birth control? They have a right to know, they raised you for God's sake!
They both know. My dad tries to pretend like he doesn't. But my mom knows everything I do, not by choice, but because I made the mistake of accepting her friend request on Facebook. Whenever I try to defriend her or block her I get an overly-angry phone call which ends up making defriending her more of a hassle than just putting up with it.
What's more important to you, your brains or your looks?
In the long run, brains. A beautiful face can only keep you distracted for so long. But looks can work to your advantage in certain situations.
How much more beautiful are you compared to other girls at your school?
Going to school in Boston where there are 30+ colleges and universities means there are a lot of beautiful girls all around. Whatever kind of girl you're attracted to you can definitely find here. With so many girls I wouldn't say I'm the most beautiful one, but I'd also like to think that what separates me from the competition is a laid-back personality, sense of humor, and being able to have a good time with just about anyone.
What're your thoughts on Lindsey Lohan?
Lindsey's got her issues, but doesn't everybody? Hers just happen to be for all the world to see. That's gottta be rough.
How many piercings do you have?
Right now, none. I've had my belly button pierced twice, my nose once, and my ears four times, and every one got infected! (Ew.) Not because I don't take care of it or anything, one of the piercers told me that some bodies just don't like piercing and it'll never work.
What's the least attractive piece of clothing you own?
I have an french beret from Paris that I used to wear constantly. With everything. I think I tried playing basketball with it on one time. It's retired to my closet now, but I can't part with it. Has too much sentimental value.
Which Rocky opponent would you fight if you had to fight one?
I wouldn't be able to give you a honest answer without calling up one of my guy friends or going to Wikipedia, since I've never seen any of the Rocky movies. And I have definitely received flak for that on more than one occasion.
Have you ever made an online purchase you regret?
Since my dad is a big motorcycle guy, this past Christmas I bought him a jacket that automatically inflated into an airbag if you fell off the bike. Basically it turned you into the Michelin man. I spent a $100 on that thing and he refused to wear it because he thought it would look stupid if he ever set it off by accident when he was walking around in a store or eating in a restaurant.
