What's the one thing about you.. ?

[CountryWolf07]

Ok..

I was thinking..

What is one thing that others DON'T know about you.. don't EXPECT that you have.. whatever it is.. that makes them go "Wow.. you can't be that way.. etc.. "

I'll go first:

People say I'm funny and I'm friendly and I'm always nice all the time, I have a smile on my face 100% of the time - but - one setback - I have a BAD temper - I flare off easily, and that only happens when I get angry easily over little or big things..

People might be surprised to know that I DON'T have a bad temper,Rachael (I called you Audrey before.......SORRY ), although I can be pretty curt and direct at times. I am known as a "peacemaker" by most of my family and friends, and sometimes I don't stand up enough for myself and those around me!

I think you're known as a *peace-maker* on PT too!!! You ARE a peace-maker!

As to my *one thing*, I'm known to my close friends as a *blabbermouth* and someone who keeps talking and talking. They wouldn't believe how quiet and shy I am around new people. People that are new to me though, wouldn't believe that I'm talkative with anyone. They think I lack a tongue!!!

In work situations I can get up and give a presentation to hundreds of people, but most people who know me outside of work would never believe it, as I am quite shy in social situations.

Im fairly quiet at school. Never a huge talker.

But when Im with my friends, im this crazy wild girl. and my friends tell people at school, and they are like no way!

Ally Cat's Mommy, I am pretty much that way too. It took me a long time to read the Scripture in church in front of all those people. I still get a little nervous!

Nuh uh! On here you don't seem like *such* a blabbermouth, but I'm sure that you are on AIM (from the way you and Julie act). You don't seem to be that kind of person (probably because I don't know you that well).


Hmm...My one thing...I can't really think of one right now. I'm sure that I have several, but none that I can think of at the moment

[Randi]

I have never made a speech, I just can't - in front of a big crowd. Not even when John turned 50, or when my parents had been married for 25 years! However, I can do it in front of 4-5 people.

[CountryWolf07]

I also can't really do presentations either!! OR stand up in front of many people! People didn't believe me when I told them I got up onstage in front of 3,000-4,000 people to meet Lonestar.. go figure! But I had pics to prove it...

In real life I'm a pretty quiet person. I'm more of a listener than a talker, and I hate attention. Even when I was little and my whole family sang 'Happy Birthday' to me, I tried to hide my face cuz I hated the attention and I was soo embarassed.

Edit: I used to get sooooooooo nervous in front of people too. I still do get pretty nervous, but I think I'm getting better.

You are? So am I! I have several with thousands of pieces that my mom told me to *give away* now that we're moving, but I secretly packed them in my boxes. I don't want to give them away! I want to make them!! LOL! But my mom's point was that it would take me a year to make a puzzle with 5000 pieces.

Apcrs5122, I wouldn't have as many posts as I do if I wasn't talkative. Online, I'm talkative with anyone, because I don't have to see them face to face. If its face to face, I'm talkative with close friends, and ever so QUIET with people that are new to me.

I love to play, hack and slash and RPG games on PS2, XBOX ad the PC

Something others don't know? Hmm, I love to help people with anything if I can..I'm also very shy

Aren't they amazing!! I got to see them in an *intimate* accoustic only concert - huge auditorium was blocked off and limited to about 500 or so - nothing like it!!! not only a great band but awesome people.

My family and PT know my silly, slightly toilet oriented side but others would be shocked! My professional role is very efficient, prim and proper
