ONLY BECAUSE ANGIE TOLD ME TO

Things you didn't know you wanted to know!

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose some people to be tagged. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.


1. I own something like 8 sets of matching pajamas. I don't normally sleep in both pieces (and I do have the usual sweats+tshirt combo too), but if it's break and I don't feel like getting dressed, I'll laze around in them all day.
2. I've been on ADD meds (mostly continually) since I was 8. As we have recently found out, I am absolutely terrible (and miserable) off them.
3. I don't know how to study. Never had to in high school, am thinking this would be a nice skill set for college, though.
4. I like the way dresses and skirts make me feel, but hate wearing them because I have distinctly non-pretty legs.
5. My closet is filled with cute dresses and shoes that I don't wear because I'm not completely comfortable in them.
6. I have issues with my own femininity. Whenever I'm put into a situation where I have to 'be' a girl, I feel awkward, miserable, and confused.
7. I love spoiling my friends for no reason.
8. I have never had a fulfilling, successful, or well-concluded relationship with a guy, and that includes some guys who were only friends.
9. Rubber duckies always make me smile.
10. I have never been to another English-speaking country.
11. I have a hard time sleeping without a stuffed animal or something to curl around.
12. I love to cook, especially desserts and breakfast.
13. From kindergarten to 12th grade, I attended six different schools.
14. I'm very bad at forming lasting relationships. If I can't easily contact a person, I generally won't.
15. I went through a 'goth' phase in middle school. Wore nothing but black for two years. We don't talk about it.
16. I might be addicted to Dr. Pepper.
17. I love fun socks, and socks in general. I rarely go barefoot or wear shoes without socks.
18. I love fashion, but I'm terrible at it. I've never been able to experiment effectively with colors and styles and such.
19. That being said, I am terribly addicted to What Not To Wear. I blame my sister.
20. I used to bite my nails. Also I can't paint them for shit.
21. I will try everything once, particularly foods. I looooove strange foods.
22. Strangest things I have eaten: whole baby octopi, blood sausage, head cheese, entrails sausage.
23. I am a room troll, but only because I get my required human interaction via the internet.
24. I love cities.
25. I don't quite know what I want to do with my life, but I'm sure it'll be awesome.


I TAG YOU, JESSACHU. Also Neb and Amry and anyone else who wants to hit this.

22. I will never, ever eat headcheese. No thank you ma'am. But octopus is delicious and I have no problem trying out sausages (a hurr hurr hurr)

[identity profile] minachi.livejournal.com 2009-12-13 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
But it's so delicious :[! Unappetizing to think about, but just remember how nutritious it is!

I hate most lunchmeats, though, aside from salami (thin slices of real meat do not count). Somehow I don't think I'll like a loaf of brains and other gunk any more.

LOAF OF BRAINS

Have you ever had foie gras? It tastes like that and meat in one delicious spreadable snack.

No, but that has less to do with personal taste and more to do with "OH GOD SO BROKE". Though if the opportunity ever comes up, I'd probably try some.
