-I am nice almost to a fault, I am able to forgive pretty much anything, and while I often get angry, its really doesnt last, and the anger is never deep.

*I talk and laugh a lot (and sometimes loudly!).
*When I have no expression on my face it looks like I’m pissed off when I’m not. My brother is the same way.
*I HATE grasshoppers and crickets.
*I was extremely shy as a child....not so much anymore. :p

[Chilli]

Here' goes:
- I seriously cringe when people pronounce soil like "sull"... at times the southern accent is like a completely different language.
- People around here are surprised that my accent isn't like theirs despite the fact that I'm southern-fried.
- Since Johnny Cash died(2003) I haven't listened to country music.
-When I am driving alone, I talk as if there is someone in the passenger seat. Lets just say it helps me concentrate, eventhough I am a self-proclaimed terrible driver.
- Everytime I try to spell "new", I always find myself wanting to spell it like: "gnu"... like an antelope.
- My philosophy in life is that "I'll learn it the hard way."
- When I was daycare-age everyone thought I was Asian.
- I type normal, but I handwrite from right to left.
- I'm terrible at explaining things.
- Rabbit teeth scare me.
- The earliest memories I have are of my dad singing Queen songs to me. :]
- Cats, especially strays, have an odd fondness of me. I don't quite understand this...
- I am 100% against drinking alcoholic beverages.
- My memory is the worst.
- I am one of the pickiest eaters you will ever know.
- The one word that I admit to overusing is "rad".
- I love (love love love!) adrenaline rushes.
- Road-rash should have been my middle name. If only you knew the kinds of longboarding accidents I have been in..

- I'm against the breeding of any kind of mutt or animals with mutations of their natural color. This bothers me most when it comes to birds. Thats why the two that I have purchased from breeders both sport feathers of their ancestor's natural color.

[Karen]

- I'm the only one of my siblings with blue eyes
- I have such weird food allergies that people have a hard time trying to feed me - and they have all developed in the last ten years - before that I had NONE!

[Freedom]

-I can read things that are upside down and backwards the same way I can read forwards
-I am allergic to cats and now have 8 plus 2 foster kittens.
-I have a really good photographic memory
-I have a terrible temper (again no surprise here)
-I'm allergic to beer; but can drink and enjoy Guinness.
-I have slept with a small stuffed gray elephant with red corduroy ears until well into my twenties. I still have it; name is Ellie Phant.
- I am afraid of fire, and almost had the gas range in this house replaced with an electric one when I bought the house. Learned to cope, but very nervous with it even now, after 6 years.
- I LOVE to cook; hate to clean up; manage to make the kitchen look like a tornado went through it almost every meal. But the food is DELICIOUS! :D
- you can explain something to me a thousand times; maybe I will get it maybe not.Show me how to do it and I get first time through.
- I have the well known short fuse Sicilian temper.
- I am afraid of spiders.
- I cannot watch scary movies, I have nightmares for weeks afterwards. Haven't watched one since I was about 6!
- I can't walk into a hospital without fainting. So if you are ever in hospital and I come visit, you will know the funeral director is right behind me. 9makes taking Dad to the ER a major challenge and often a nurse has to help me.)
- I can't deal with blood or discussions of blood, surgeries, that type thing. When Dad had some periodontal work done 2 years back, the dentist called me in to explain what Dad needed to do with applying some gel and a gauze pad and I passed out. (Dr. said it was the first time in over 30 years he ever had to treat a patient's caregiver.) I've passed out listening to someone at work explaining their surgery -- to someone ELSE.
- I am stubborn; but since I am always right, it is OK. :D
- I am known for my honesty, among friends, and at work; and I can't tolerate a liar.
- I took ballet from ages 3 to 6 and was never able to do a split. I am NOT a limber person.

[Lizzie]

* For my height, my legs are comparatively long and my arms comparatively short, so I've never been able to touch my toes without bending my knees a little.
* Like Karen, my second toe is longer than my big toe. I didn't like this until I learned Anna Pavlova (famous Russian ballerina) had the same "problem".
* I hate rings, can't stand having them on my fingers, so I didn't have a wedding ring when I married.
* I forget people's names within 1 second of hearing them but can remember the details of conversations for weeks.
* I have a green thumb and a natural talent for garden design, though I don't use either now that I'm so intensely involved in fostering cats.
* I've never known what I wanted to do as a career, and I'm close to retirement age so it's no use figuring it out now.
* I learned to read easily and have been a reader since age 5. I'll read anything - care repair manuals, phone directories, cereal packets, etc. rather than read nothing.
* I am somewhat afraid of electricity and it's the only type of home repair I won't try to do myself.
* I find most social situations fairly easy to deal with but I'm inclined to find most people boring very quickly (and I accept that I must bore most people).
* While I have adjusted to most American grammar rules, I cannot bring myself to put the period inside the quotation marks or brackets/parentheses.
* I have a very quirky sense of humor and enjoy word play.
* When I was 20, I spent an entire year reading no other literature except plays.
* I once had 5 boyfriends at the same time, just to see if I could do it. Now I'd rather spend the evening with my cats than go out on a date.
* My favorite fruits are raspberries, Bosc pears, figs and ataulfo mango. My favorite vegetables are parsnips and leeks.

:D
I thought it would be fun but it was exhausting since I had to go out every single evening. And it was confusing because I couldn't remember what I'd talked about to each one so I'd get myself in a muddle.

~I am addicted to pizza rolls... yummy
~I have a ridiculous fear of snakes and worms, but I am studying to be a veterinarian.
~I truly believe in human euthanasia as a way to end suffering in humans that are terminal, and only if that's what they truly believe it's what they want

I am enjoy this thread so much! These two things that Lizzie mentioned are soooo me.

1. My favorite subjects in school were English-related topics - spelling, grammar, reading books.
2. I love to travel although have never gotten to do very much of it and that is a regret.
3. I can't understand manuals or written directions. I need someone to show me how to do something.
4. I love working in the yard, planting, etc. Must have not gotten enough time in as a kid making mud pies. :p
5. I am orderly and organized almost to a fault. My closets have like things together and are grouped by color.
6. I have always loved animals, most especially dogs since I was very young.
7. One of my first words was Vacum. I was trying to pronounce vacuum cleaner. My parents named our dog Vacum so that I would be able to call him. :)
8. I like most foods but hate the taste and smell of liver. Hubby likes it and I have only cooked it for him once after decades of marriage. :p

[moosmom]

Wow, this is a great thread.

Okay, let's see now...

I get bored easily
I adore the many friends I have made here on PT
I love to help other people, albeit elderly, little kids, anyone who looks like they can use my help.
I enjoy talking to the customers at work (aside from that last a-hole a few nights ago)
I love watching tv (part of being bored)
I suffer from manic depression. I hate that I have absolutely no control over it (chemical imbalance in the brain)
I have short term memory loss (must've been all those years of my youth, if you know what I mean). It's gotten worse these days and is VERY frustrating (like looking all over the place for your cellphone while you're actually talking on it...DUH!
I adore my cats. They are my lifeline.
When I'm depressed (which is alot lately, it seems), I love going to church for the peace and serenity, and to get things off my chest.
I love playing Scrabble (keeps my mind or what little mind I have left active)
I love crew meets (my brother is a crew (rowing) coach
I love Pet Talk. It's saved my life.
I love sailing.
I adore my brother and wish he lived closed (he's out in North Carolina)
I love writing.
I'm afraid of snakes
I'm afraid of drowning
I'm scared of dying
I speak my mind and tell it like it is
I love driving to Bolton Lake and sitting there for hours, either reading, or listening to my iPod. It's been my favorite place since I was a child.
I love taking the train to NYC and walking around.
I'm disorganized.
I'm a slob (hey, I live alone, okay???)
I love to cook
I hate it when I'm feeling sad (that's my depression again) and someone idiot will say, "Oh, come on, get over it. Pull yourself up and move on). If ONLY it were that easy. Or they ask me what's bothering me. I don't KNOW what's bothering me, and that's why I'm on medication.
Stupid people piss me off.
I am impatient.
I'm very greatful that God saw something in me to make me want to live.

Ever since, we both are happy and I am so blessed and lucky to have someone like him in my life at this time, and hopefully later in life too as well. We have been together for a year and almost a month. Let's just say, I have a gut feeling. :)

[Cinder & Smoke]

... but hate the taste and smell of liver.
Hubby likes it and I have only cooked it for him once after decades of marriage.
:p

OLD Liver Tail >>>

I was a lil kid ...5-8, somewhere around there ... toddled in from school ...
Ewwwww ... What STINKS in here?

Mom was not impressed ... "That's what were having for dinner, Dear; it's LIVER.
It has a unique smell before it's cooked. You'll LIKE it."

YUCCCK! I won't like it - it smells BAD! I wanna Hamburger.
I'm only cooking ONE meal!
I headed for my room.

Dad appeared on the scene ... "Gosh, what STINKS in here?"

Mom was REALLY not impressed ... "YOU asked for it, Skipper!"

The smell became overpowering, even upstairs behind my closed door ...
KIDS ~ Dinner's ready!

Five "Dinner's ready - COME!" calls later, I was seated at the dining room table.

I *s*l*o*w*l*y* ate everything in sight - except IT.
IT lay menacingly on my plate - a huge glob of UCK!

"Eat you LIVER, Dear."
I don't WANT it - gimmie a Hamburg or a Pean-Butter & Jelly Sammich.
EAT IT!

I'll get SICK if I eat that junk!
"EAT it if you want any desert."

EAT IT!
I'll get sick if I do ...
"Eat it Dear. You'll probably like it; you ate it all the time when you were little."
SHE (my lil Sister) didn't eat all hers!"
"She ate most of it and didn't complain a bit!"
She can hardly talk ...
EAT IT and stop complaining!

I took a tiny bite ...
And Yuppers - Did I get **SICK**!
*Barfed* all over the plate, table cloth, my lap ... a real 1st class job!

I remember getting *cleaned* then *paddled* and sent to my room - hungry.
I NEVER remember having LIVER again - EVER!

:o
:D

[Glacier]

OLD Liver Tail >>>

I was a lil kid ...5-8, somewhere around there ... toddled in from school ...
Ewwwww ... What STINKS in here?



When my sis and I were kids, we always knew when Mom and Dad were fighting. They went to great lengths to hide those types of things from us--we never overheard or saw any tension between them. But when Mom was ticked at him, we got spaghetti for dinner. Pasta is a side dish, not a meal to my Dad. When they had made up, we got liver and onions--Dad's favorite meal! I required half a pound of bacon to eat a tiny slice of liver!

[sumbirdy]

Ok...let me think...

*I'm 18 and do not have my license yet. I'm totally terrified of driving.
*I'm scared of horses,ferrets, and gerbils.
*I'm really shy, even around children I don't know
*I have to be forced to buy myself things.
*I get real sick when it gets hot and I love the cold.
*I'm obsessed with bracelets
*I really want a little niece (I have 2 nephews and a third on the way)
*I'm going blind
*I'm a picky eater.
*I hate talking on the phone and won't answer it if it rings.
*I don't wear make-up
*I love to watch the news.
*I worry about everything.

[Lizzie]

Offal was a regular part of our diet when I was growing up since it was cheaper than regular meat, and I actually loved liver and onions, and kidneys, before I became vegetarian. Like Phred, I grew up in an era when you got a clip round the ear, at least, if you didn't eat the majority of what was on your plate. However, after several heave-ups at the table whenever my step-mother used pearl barley (another cheap but nutritious food), she stopped trying. I feel my gorge rising just writing the name of that food down, can't even look at it in the grocery store. I loathed swede (rutabaga) and marrow (a stringy and watery very large squash) also but they didn't make me sick.

[Suki Wingy]

-I'm incredibly indecisive

-I can't kill insects and spiders that come into my house.
-I'm not afraid of anything that I can think of, and that thought kind of bothers me.
-When I was young, I was afraid of internal organs and I couldn't go anywhere near the giant heart at the Museum of Science and Industry.
-My earliest memory involves walking through tall grass looking for turtles.
-I know I should be nice to them, but people with very low self esteem really anger me.
-I have very little self control and time managment skills so I'm late with everything I do and almost everywhere I go, despite trying. I've very often spent hours on my computer without even realizing it.
-I really want to take a gap year to travel or live out on the fringes somewhere in Africa, but can't afford it.
-I want to join the Peace Corps but they want a degree first.
-I've often had sudden urges to up and join the army even though I'm usually against war.
-I find myself wanting to do something just because it is a tradition even if it doesn't seem logical. (cropping dogs' ears, joining the army, etc.)
-I'm allergic to all of my animals
-I didn't know people could breathe through their noses until I was about 5, because I couldn't!
-There is a very good chance I have had sinus infections off and on for the last three years, none of which have been diagnosed.

[cali]

oh after reading these I thought of a few more lol:

-I wear virtually no makeup, only Diluted foundation and only to cover the redness from my Rosacea.
-cats love me, I clearly remeber several times walking to school with random cats purring and rubbing themselves against my legs, there is even 2 that despite all my dogs, hang out in my front yard. when I met my moms boyfrineds cat I was told that chances are I would not see him because he is really shy, my mom was going over there for months before the cat would come out of hiding. I walked in the door and the cat ran right up to me purring lol.
-I HATE to buy things for myself, but I LOVE to shop for my pets and for other people. the question I hate the most is "what do you want for x-mas/your birthday?" because there is nothing "I" want, other then stuff for others, which apperntly isnt an acceptable answer.
-I dont submit to peer pressure, I dont drink or smoke, and never have. that doesnt mean nobody has tried to make me, my own parents have been trying to get me to drink for years, but the most I am willing to drink is a breezer. I have been pressured to chain smoke at school events, but I always passed.
-I am a crazy picky eater, I love a lot of things, but ONLY if they are made a certain way. for example, I love pie...so long as its pumpkin. I love Pizza..so long as there is no veggies at all, and the crust has to be thick, stuffed crust is gross, the sauce cannot contain onions, Cheese must be either Mozza, or Chedder, or marble etc... I love Burgers, so long as they contain no pickles, onions, or any type of sauce, and they MUST have cheese. I dont eat any seafood at all, I love the smell, but I hate the taste lol.
-I cant throw up. not naturally, I can only thow up if I induce it. do you know how annoying that is? its doesnt seem like something you would miss, until you cant do it.

-I travelled to West Africa quite a few years ago and had an argument with my boyfriend at the time. I jumped out of the landrover we were in and stomped off down a dusty road.

We searched and searched and I realized it was going to take a miracle to find her. I prayed to God to help us find her and if he would that I would read the Bible every night for the rest of my life. A few minutes later, we found her curled up inside a tree stump. That was 4 years ago and I read each night. :)

*U2 has been my favorite band for 14 years. I've seen them in concert several times and finally met them at Sundance this year. :D I've waited in line 12+ hours to get a good spot on the floor for a concert.
*I'm a little OCD when it comes to checking things...I have to check all the doors at night to make sure they are locked, sometimes more than once. I have to check that everything is turned off and I unplug everything that isn't used daily.
*I have two siblings, one brother and one sister, they are twins, 5 years older than me.
*I like kids, but small children make me nervous. I will not hold a newborn baby. I've never changed a diaper in my life and don't intend to unless I have kids of my own.
*I'm really bad at swimming, I still like going in the water, just not where I can't touch...I panic.
*I've been working on a 2-year college degree since 2003. :o I just take a few classes here and there.
*I was pretty much a straight A student in high school, and I have mostly been in college as well. The lowest grade I've ever received was a C in my college history class, and that wasn't my fault...long story. :rolleyes:
*However I'm a huge slacker, I leave everything to the last minute
*I hate writing papers!
*I love photography. I can be outside taking photos of my dogs for hours without even realizing it. I take way too many pictures, I probably annoy people I'm with because I'm always photographing. I like to document events, like taking photos along the way of a trip or something.
*I hate reading instruction manuals. I just like messing with things and figuring them out as I go.
*I'm quite particular with spending money, I prefer to save most of it...my theory is someday I'll need it to buy a house. I usually just spend money on the dogs, if I buy something expensive for myself its usually either a camera or a vacation.
*I buy clothes based on if I like the way they look, I don't care at all what brand they are. I don't see the need to spend a ton of money on brands.
*I'm not a "girly-girl"...I would never spend a ton on fancy purses, make-up, perfume, etc.
*I've never smoked or used drugs, and I never will.
*I avoid doctors, hospitals, and taking any medications as much as possible.
*I hate touching raw meat, it grosses me out.
*My job is a pet groomer, I have been for over 5 years.
*Which makes me a bit obsessive about keeping my dogs clean...I don't like their coats to feel dirty at all.
*When I see dogs blowing coat and little chunks of hair sticking out it really makes me want to brush the dog and get the clumps out. :o
*I was allergic to cats and horses as a child, but I'm not now.
*I used to catch bugs (grasshoppers, praying mantis, butterflies, etc.) all the time when I was a kid.
*But I hate spiders! I can leave them on the walls/ceiling in the house as long as they are not in my room, I can't sleep if I know there's a spider in my room. I think tarantulas are pretty cool, except I'm not sure I would dare hold one.
*I sometimes talk, and walk, in my sleep. I've been known to move things around in my room when I'm asleep.
*I have a good memory, but its selective. I can remember a dog I groomed years ago but forget about something somebody told me to do an hour ago.
*I enjoy drawing and painting, but I have a hard time getting "inspired" to create anything.


Ok I'll stop now...

[Husky_mom]

[binka_nugget]

- I ALWAYS mapquest if I haven't been there yet. I hate getting lost, but am very prone to it
- I have to crack my back and neck throughout the day or it locks up and gets uncomfortable
- I have my dogs paw prints tattooed onto my forearm and plan on getting their portraits tattooed on my arm, turning it into a full sleeve
- I *HATE* going to the gym. I have no problem with working out while playing a game of soccer, basketball, etc.. I get bored running on a treadmill.
- I bite my nails. I finally saw a nail tech and got sculptured nails to prevent me from biting.
- I've gone through about 5 years of Chinese school. The only thing I know how to write in Chinese is my name.
- I plan on opening a dog daycare/training facility in Squamish, BC in the next few years. After the business is steady, I'd like to expand and open a Vancouver store.
- Kaedyn is the reason I professionally train dogs
- My boyfriend is planning on proposing by the summer
- I've already planned half the wedding in my head
- I'd like to have 3-4 kids (my s/o wants 2-3 :p)
- I watch very little TV. I NEVER, EVER miss Prison Break though.
- I'm a horrible procrastinator. Keeva was supposed to be my first show dog. She's over a year old and still hasn't been registered yet.
- I play furry-paws.com religiously
- I love photography. I had my boyfriend promise me to build me a darkroom when we buy a house.
- I would love to flip a house one day. I'm constantly looking at potential flips, even though I can't afford to flip yet.

[Husky_mom]

- I have to crack my back and neck throughout the day or it locks up and gets uncomfortable
.

LOL me too!!.... hubby freaks out with the noise I make LOL

* I love to see maps beforehand... but I´m pretty oriented regardless....

* I always always have to read instructions... even for thing I´ve done before...like coloring my hair... I always read the instructions, and I don´t think they´ve changed LOL :rolleyes:

* I´m the handy man...... LOL

[cassiesmom]

Okay, here goes. No particular order.

-I'm 41, the youngest of three children. I'm 11 years younger than my brother, 14 years younger than my sister.
-My brother has three children and my sister has one daughter. I have three nieces and a nephew, whom I am so proud of!
-Cassie is the first cat I've ever had.
-I was double promoted (skipped second grade) which I would not encourage anyone to do to their kids. I don't think they do it as much today. The cut-off date for kindergarten when I started was Dec. 1 (it's now Sept. 1), so I am a full year younger than everyone else in my class.
-I'm "officially" right-handed, but I eat with my left hand. I sort of function left-handed -- example, in choir I hold the music in my right hand and reach across to turn the pages with my left, which is the opposite of just about everyone I sing with.
-I played the flute from 4th grade through college, didn't touch it for a good 10 years after that, and picked it up again about 10 years ago for church.
-I put 100,000 miles on a car for the first time with my previous car.
-"When in doubt, read the directions" applies to me! I start puttering, and then if I can't figure it out I go to the instructions.
-I won the junior high spelling bee in eighth grade.
-I totally agree with WolfQ on the subject of tomatoes!
-I am terrible with time ... my friends and family joke about "Elyse time" because I am always, always late. This is a trait I would like to be rid of!
-I'm a terrible pack-rat. This is another trait I would like to be rid of!
-I have an irrational fear of traffic jams. I don't like the sensation of being unable to go anywhere.
-I don't smoke, and I probably drink about 4 or 5 alcoholic beverages a year. (A beer at the Cubs game, a glass of champagne on New Year's Eve, a Guinness for Saint Patrick's day, that sort of thing.)
-The farthest I've ever traveled- Russia, with a church work team. I'd go again if the opportunity came up.
-I proposed; he turned me down because we're too much alike. (We're both still single!)
-My second toes extend just slightly past my great toes.
-I saw my spinal cord in thin slices when I hurt my back at work and had an MRI. When the tech found out I'm a nurse, he showed me the MRI of a previous patient because it was so unusual.
-And... If I could make my career selection all over again, I would not choose nursing. I was a hospital volunteer in high school, assigned to the hospital library -- perfect assignment for a chubby, shy introvert! I'd probably head straight for a career in library science if I had it to do again.

[Kfamr]

I'm 20 and do not drive. I've been afraid to forever, especially since I have horrible vision.
Reguardless of my horrible vision (I wear glasses) I'd like to think I'm a great photographer. When I first started photography I could barely see what was in front of me.
I'm constantly thinking to myself "that would make an awesome picture" which is why I have a camera with me 24/7.
I have a love/hate relationship with my job.
I just started dating last year, by choice. I never had much of an interest/have been to shy in previous years.
I love anything and everything about natures. Walks, hikes, the sea, the sky, etc. It makes me feel so peaceful.
I listen to just about any type of music. I used to be a music snob but now I listen to everything.
I adore my dogs and everything about them. They make the worst days livable.
I have an odd sense of humor but can adjust it to whomever I'm around.
I LOVE just riding around or hanging out with friends and singing along to songs.
My most favorite movie ever is The Lion King - I also adore the sequels.
My second favorite movie is Texas Chainsaw Massacre or The Hills Have Eyes.
I adore gorey movies.
I can't stand the sight of blood in person.
I can't touch human wounds but am fully capable of dealing with a dog wound. My hands have been covered in my dog's blood before (cutting the quick or other wounds) and it didn't phase me.
I can play the guitar, a few songs, but not the greatest.


My list is getting too long already.

[Miss Z]

OK hmm... :)

-I was named after Zara Philips and my middle name after my aunt who died of leukaemia before I was born.
-I could sit up and crawl far earlier than most babies are expected to be able to do so, so much so the midwives were worried I may be abnormal :p
- My ring finger on my right hand is really spasmodic; i.e. it jerks about randomly if I hold my hand flat and still, as when I broke my little finger next to it, the ring finger was slightly dislocated and never popped back in.
- I am double jointed (ish) in my hip joints
- I have a type of sub-anaemia
- I cannot stand celery
- I scar extremely easily
- I get better marks for my homework if I do it in the early hours of the morning (i.e. 1am etc) than if I do it in the evening! I'm a real night owl.
- I can bend my back backwards until my spine is nearly 90 degrees.
- I can half-dislocate my right shoulder
- I am rather partial to salad cream and salt and vinegar crisp sandwiches. :p No idea how I discovered that combination.
- I'm fine with heights but the idea of falling freaks the heck out of me.
- I can't drink a hot drink with hot food. It's just not right!
-I pronounce 'been' and 'seen' as 'bin' and 'sin', but not for 'green'. That's Lancastrian logic for you, lol.
-I also have a lazy tongue when it comes to pronouncing 'th' (comes out as either 'ff' or 'vv'), but I can say it if I really want to. :p
- I have frequent 'blonde moments', despite the fact I'm brunette.
- If I could change myself physically I'd have better teeth and a less crooked nose.
- My hair is naturally poker straight.
- I don't like it when people say the words 'tender' and 'jambouree'. I don't have a clue why.
- Even though I'm apparently clever ;) , I've been told I have some of the ditsiest expressions and voice tones people have ever seen/heard :D
- When around people older than me, I'm generally quiet and smiley. When I'm around people my own age, I'm loud, sarcastic, and jokey. When I'm around people younger than me, I'm usually a bit snooty.

There must be more...I'll have to keep thinking!

[KittyGurl]

Here are a few for me:

-I can't live without my IPod. If my mom takes it away from my for some reason I go through "IPod withdraw" as my mom calls it. ;) :p
-I'm an vegatarian (did I spell it right?)
-I have to wear a jacket under my other jacket when it's cold.
-I was supposed to be named Samantha, but my mom changed her mind because her friends named her daughter Samantha too.
-My arm is double jointed. I can bend my arm in. It's really weird.
-I have to crack my knuckles. I can't stop it.
-I was a gum chewer. I chewed about one 17 pack a week. When I got my braces on, I started eating mints since I couldn't chew any gum.
-I love rollercoasters! The faster, the better! :D
-I'm good in school. I get B's, maybe a couple A's.
-I am a huge Taylor Swift fan.
-My other favorite singer is Avril Lavigne.
-My favorite band is Fall Out Boy. I love their song Dance, Dance.
-I am obessed with American Idol and Lost.
-If I watch a scary movie, it has to be during the day. I'm a big baby when it comes to scary movies. :p

That's all I can think of right now. I'll add more if I think of more.

[slick]

I hate...absolutely hate......slamming doors. There is no reason for it.
I must park straight in a parking stall. Sometimes it takes a couple of minutes for me to back out then forward again just to be straight.
I must make my bed every day.

Music is a big part of my life. I listen to my CD's whenever I'm in the car and sing my heart out. :D :eek:
I have zero tolerance for inconsiderate people.

I must sleep on the right side of my bed.
My last "date" was in 1994 and I vow to remain single until the day I die. Men.....yuck!!!!
I hate, hate, hate shopping of any kind.
I'm sure there's more but I'll think of them later.
