*I've been drawn toward wolves ever since I was a young child
*I've always loved dogs
*I've never been without a dog
*I love my dogs, I would do anything for them. Sometimes they are the only thing that makes me happy.
*I love nature...I feel like a different person when I'm up in the mountains.
*I stopped going to church a long time ago...feeling connected to nature when I'm up there is my religious experience.
*I love hiking and camping
*Except I'm afraid of running into a bear (I did last summer, but I was on a 4-wheeler)
*I like tomatoes, but only in sauces and salsa, I will not eat them plain or on sandwiches. Actually I the only things I want on a sandwich are meat, cheese, and lettuce.
*I hate pineapple
*I love chocolate...and ice cream...and pretty much every dessert. Sugar is my weakness.
*I'm 23 and I've only been kissed once, by somebody I didn't even like
*I've never lived away from home. I've considered moving out, but its very hard to find a place that will allow 2 bigger dogs.
*I love to travel and see new places
*I'm generally very shy. I can talk to people I know very well and usually complete strangers...but not people that sort of know me.
*I'm terrible at conversations. I'll reply if somebody talks to me, but I usually can't start one.
*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. 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. I just take a few classes here and there.

*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.
*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...

- 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 )

- I love photography. I had my boyfriend promise me to build me a darkroom when we buy a house.

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

* 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

* 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 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.

• 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.

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
- 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. 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.
- 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
- 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.
-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!
-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.

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

[slick]

1. I hate...absolutely hate......slamming doors. There is no reason for it.
2. 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.
3. I must make my bed every day.
4. I have a severe case of the shakes if I have to drive in the snow...even an inch or two can send me running for the bus stop....and I drive an SUV. (OK, you folks from the East can start laughing at me now... )
5. 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.
6. I have zero tolerance for inconsiderate people.
7. I do not wear makeup nor do I colour my hair. I believe in being natural and believe that all women are beautiful without all that "goop".
8. I must sleep on the right side of my bed.
9. My last "date" was in 1994 and I vow to remain single until the day I die. Men.....yuck!!!!
10. I hate, hate, hate shopping of any kind.

I'm sure there's more but I'll think of them later.
