PostTue Jan 27, 2009 7:58 pm    25 Random Facts

This is a complete rip-off from something on facebook, so if you've already done it there, feel free to copy your list here. (told you I'd do it!)
You can also feel free to just comment on others, discussion is fine as well as simply posting your list.

You simply post 25 random things about yourself, facts, goals, whatever.


Here's mine:

Rules:
Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you.

1. I am an EXTREME introvert.

2. I will read nearly anything, except horror.

3. I believe that people are inherently good.

4. Doctors, for the most part, are useless. (experience has led to this conclusion)

5. I have two dogs, and a cat that I co-own.

6. There aren't 25 interesting things about me.

7. I have THE most incredible neice, Isabella Grace. Feel free to vote her the cutest baby on the Live With Regis and Kelly website!

8. My dream job would to be a nature photographer, and though I've sold a few prints, and have even been published, I don't see that happening. Maybe I should change my outlook?

9. Fact: I LOVE the Red Sox

10. Fact: I LOVE the Patriots

11. I collect baseball caps

12. There is a NYY baseball cap in my room, this is only allowed because Dirk sent it to me, otherwise we'd have burned it LONG ago.

13. I believe in the spirit of America, though it is disappearing.

14. I like to hang out at Michelle's. Being around the kids is surprisingly relaxing, though I do like it much better when it's not -10F.

15. I'm scared *beep* of snakes and mice (and dead girls, mean Grace!). I once wouldn't go into the kitchen because the cat had left a DEAD mouse in there, I had to wait until someone came and removed it.

16. I don't know if I'm afraid of the dark. I always have some small light on as I live in the country and it's pitch black at night and I've got to walk across a dark room to the light switch. We'll say that I am, I guess.

17. I'm always reading at least three books, and have them stashed everywhere. Even in other people's cars, =P

18. I LOVE music. Just about anything. My music tastes appear to be as refined as my taste in reading material.

19. I own two rifles, and I'm a pretty good shot.

20. I always have either a vanilla(ish) or Christmas(ish) Yankee Candle in my room. Who knew there were so many varieties?

21. I love airplanes, especially fighter jets. The F-14D Tomcat is my absolute favorite, even though it's been retired.

22. I voted for McCain.

23. I would have enlisted in the Navy, but my left eye is too bad for their requirements. (Though now I hear they aren't as stringent, but I'm MUCH older than when I initially made this decision, [to enlist])

24. I think I've become slightly maniacal due to these damn headaches. I'm definitely more morbid.

25. I wish there was more I could do to help others.

1. I'm French-Canadian/British/Czech/German but I usually just refer to myself as Canadian.
2. I love sports, both playing and watching.
3. Until I was 17-18 I was about 5'2". Now I'm about 6'.
4. I can drink you under the table.
5. Under the same table I'll beat you at pool (billiards) at, since I've played close to 800 games and am quite good.
6. Huge hockey fan.
7. I cheer for the Montreal Canadiens and Team Canada.
8. I have a high pain tolerance.
9. I once played 3 hockey games in 1 day (tournament) with a bad case of the flu. I was puking and medicating like crazy between games.
10. My shoulders suck from being dislocated several times in hockey.
11. I always got back up and if it didn't pop back in place on it's own, I'd whack it off the boards on the bench.
12. Labatte Blue and Molson Canadian are my typical beers of choice. Alexander Keith's is good, too.
13. I'm a good driver and love my car.
14. I've been to France, America, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Jamaica.

16. I'm in University.
17. I have 2 dogs, both Australian Shepherds. Shadow and Rusty.
18. I'm left handed.
19. While I don't fit many of the Canadian stereotypes such as being a lumberjack, a curler, saying oot and aboot, etc, I will admit to being a beer swilling hockey nut.
20. I can crack my knuckles (all 3 sets on the fingers), toes, knees, spine, and occasionally my neck.
21. I used to think my eyes were green but apparently due to the brownish/orange ring around the pupil before the rest of the green iris, it means they're hazel.
22. I'm atheist.
23. I'm very liberal

1. If I had to pick only one food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be popcorn on the stove (or ice cream... it's a close second)

2. I absolutely love anything and everything having to do with Disney - always have, and hopefully always will!

3. I LOVE to dance - especially ballet!!

4. I adore each and every single one of my friends. They truly all mean the world to me - i'd do anything for them!

5. I love being adventurous and trying new things. I will try almost anything at least once! I tend to be a thrill seeker as well... yes, sky diving is definitely on my list of "to-dos"!!

6. I love my laptop - it's mah baby

7. When I was little I wanted to like coffee, but hated it. Things have most definitely changed since then !

8. I love love LOVE traveling! Some places I want to travel in my lifetime (that I haven't traveled to yet) include: Antarctica, Egypt, Ireland, New Zealand, Greece, anywhere in the Caribbean, South America, Kenya, Hawaii, Japan, Sweden, numerous US States.... amongst many many many many MANY other places!!


9. Pink was not always my favorite color! It was blue for a very long time until I was about 15 years old!


10. For the longest time I wanted to be an archaeologist/Egyptologist - I am extremely fascinated by ancient Egypt and other ancient civilizations (i would love to go on an archaeological dig someday - or a dinosaur dig... i know that's something different though, but still!!). Someday i WILL see the pyramids and sphinx in real life!!!

11. If I were smart enough, I would become an astronaut, but you have to be insanely good at math, which I definitely am not!

12. I want to travel to outer space SOOO badly!! I am EXTREMELY fascinated by outer space and everything there is to do with it!!

13. I like Star Trek... I grew up watching it with my dad. Star Trek Voyager is my favorite series, and The Next Generation is my 2nd fav.

14. One of my biggest fears is dead people and being buried alive - in particular the thought of being encased in like 7 Egyptian coffins and then placed in a tiny chamber all alone inside a gigantic pyramid is horrifying for me to think about.

15. Someday I want to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro (located in Africa). For a while I wanted to climb Mt. Everest, but then read the book "Into Thin Air" and realized how dangerous Mt. Everest is to climb, and how many people have died climbing it.... Mt. Kilimanjaro would be amazing though!! Someday I will !

16. I enjoy going to the casino NOT to play, but to watch my friends play. It sounds lame, but I have no desire to play what so ever! The only thing I actually enjoy playing at the casino is cosmic bingo. I HATE slot machines because I literally gauge my losses in coffee: "There goes 2 lattes i could've had".

17. I love to read. I love many kinds of books, but some of my favorite ones are fiction/fantasy ie: Harry Potter, Eragon...etc I love being taken away into a whole other world - it's like a mini vacation. My other favorite books are friendship-y type books ie: Divine Secrets of the YaYa Sisterhood, Firefly Lane, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants...etc

18. I wish that I lived closer to my extended family. The ones that live closest to me are Madison, WI (aka not close at all). Although we don't live near one another, we're very close to one another. We're a very large crazy bunch (there's about 45 of us with my grandparents and aunts, uncles, and cousins), but I couldn't be happier to be a part of that large crazy bunch!

19. I hate being in bad moods and quickly try to get myself out of them when I am in one. However, when I am in a bad mood, I get mad that i'm in a bad mood b/c i don't like being in them, so i get into an even worse mood for being in a bad mood - kinda a downward spiral. Fortunately I'm in a bad mood very very VERY seldom, so that doesn't happen very often luckily!

20. I learned to play the piano when I was very little, and then stopped taking lessons when I was about eleven years old. I re-taught myself to play a couple years ago. I'm not very good, but I practice my favorite songs almost daily from Phantom of the Opera, Wicked, amongst others...

21. One of the most (convenient) relaxing places for me is in a coffee shop.

22. About 90% of the time I have my digital camera on me. I love capturing moments in time, especially with my friends - I love looking back on the memories and laughs later on in life. I don't want to forget those moments! Many of my friends get irritated with me always taking pictures, but they ALL eventually enjoying looking at the pics and thank me for taking them hehe!

23. I could justify spending $100 on one of my friends, but not on myself

24. I have never minded being short in height (except when I was in 3rd grade and was too short to go on the roller coasters at Valley Fair with my friends)

25. I love smiling, and I love laughing!

16. I'm far too blunt sometimes.

22. I resent any implication that there are dark hairs on my head.
23. I believe that every penny counts!

Haha. This should be entertaining. Alright. Here goes.

1) I have bad habits of staying up late playing video games and doing stupid things online like these "Tag" thingies.

2) I am a strange breed of Conservaliberal. More liberal than conservative in some manners, but yeah.

3) I am a practicing witch.

4) I am a huge fan of the "Final Fantasy" series. 8 and 9 being tied as favorites. 12 and 10 coming in second and third place, respectively.

5) I absolutely am completely fascinated with the "Mermaid" folklore, fairytale, and myth.

6) I am a practicing Native Shaman((Some would refer to it as merely another kind of witchcraft. It's not.)).

7) I have upwards of 30 first names that I will respond to.

I have two legal last names.

9) I like cheese.

10) I'm running out of things to put on this list.

11) I did not graduate high-school, partly because my IQ was higher than 60% of my teachers, and partly because the other 40% spoke with such weird accents that I could not read their' lips properly.

12) I read lips more often than hear.

13) I am capable of riding a bicycle upwards of 30 KM an hour.

14) I am running out of things to put on this stupid list.

15) This is all Theresa's fault.

16) If the sport is not Hockey I know nothing about it.

17) If the team playing is not the Vancouver Canucks, or the Kamloops Blazers, or Team Canada, I don't care about the hockey game.

1 I have lived in Canada my entire life, and have no intention of leaving it for any purpose.

19) I have a Native status card, meaning if I wanted too, I could go across the border and live/work without going through immigration.

20) I am running out of thingy-ma-bobbers to put on this list.

21) I was once a good little christian boy. Now I'm a practicing witch. You can bet how welcome I am in most of my childhood friend's houses, right?

22) I have no clue what to put here.

23) I can type upwards of 100 words per minute.

24) I can only think 73 words per minute, meaning I frequently have to stop typing for several minutes so my mind can catch up with the automatic movement of my fingers.

25) There are now 25 random facts on this list.

I have read these and all I have to say is....Ouch, Nadia, Ouch. Allie? Don't think about it. As for me, 25 random facts? Uh...ok.

01 I read Memory Alpha way to much (See Syd's obsession commant )
02 I listen to a wide range of music, yes even certain country songs (as opposed to "I listen to anything but country")
03 I wanted to write screenplays, but the recent/potential strikes are changing my mind.
04 I voted for Obama.
05 I moved from Maine to Florida, and drove it (Well, my father drove...)
06 I am not used to being warm in the winter months
07 I have realized this is in fact, not as easy as it seems.
08 I rely on Youtube way to much.
09 I am taking care of my grandparents
10 I do not read as much as I would like
11 I do, as per above like to read screenplays more then other things (as of late).
12 I am obsessed with stories in the Mirror Universe.
13 I play Hearts of Iron II: Doomsday way to much
14 I hate everything I write.
15 I tend to procrastinate way to much, even if the intended...whatever, is really simple to do.
16 I do not currently drive, nor will I be able to.
17 I tend to forget whenever a show I like is going to be on, therefor missing new episodes.
18 I have strange obsessive tenancies towards organization
19 I have somehow, still been able to find episodes of Married...with Children that I have not yet seen.
20 I do not speak in stereotype, unless I am doing it as a joke.
21 I own two electric Guitars, but do not know how to play.
22 I rarely do these things
23 I need to catch up on Heroes
24 I Have seen maybe two episodes of the new Battlestar Galactica
25 I have just realized, that each line starts with "I"

I've had to edit some of these as when I first did it I stated some stuff that only applied to that day.

1. I name my computers. The three main ones I have now are Matilda, Annika and Luciana.

2. I have a daughter, Sammie, who lives with her grandparents. She�s 5, and is the best in the world.

3. My favourite toy when I was little was a teddy called Brownie. My favourite teddy now is Katie.

4. I like playing with blocks.

5. I am a huge fan of symmetry. If things can be symmetrical, I want them to be.

6. I�m not normally aware of what my body is doing. I have to actually concentrate on it to know.

7. I wasn't diagnosed officially with Asperger's Syndrome until I was 21.

8. I�ve met the Queen. I was wearing orange jeans, and have two carrier bags of books with me (I was going to the library).

9. I did my year 10 work experience in (what was) the Liverpool Museum. I worked in the Natural History Centre, and sang Stop the Cavalry throughout the two weeks. It was May.

10. I love singing, but am nowhere near as good as I used to be. I can still mostly keep in tune, though.

11. I can�t tune my own violin, even though I learnt it from 8-16 and I still try and play it.

12. Singing is often easier than speaking.

13. I'm currently singing Still Alive by Jonathan Coulton (the Portal song).

14. I recently got a new mobile phone. It's the T-Mobile G1. I like it.

15. I need to find a place to buy proper-sized amethyst stones. I lost mine

16. Between me and Vicky (my flatmate), the flat is covered in books.

17. I might not enter the exams for my AS Level Maths. It will depend on if my brain starts working again soon.

18. I have promised to buy Johan (my boyfriend) something pink

19. I�m a member of too many forums. I don�t keep up with any of them at the moment.

20. My main college course is sometimes interesting, sometimes boring, sometimes frustrating, mostly chaotic. It's a life skills course for people on the autistic spectrum.

21. We make too many posters in college. We also make far too many PowerPoint presentations. Sometimes we get to choose between the two.

22. I am not artistic, but quite enjoy craft stuff sometimes. I�d like to get into making beaded bracelets and necklaces again.

23. I wish my fine motor skills would improve a bit so making bracelets and necklaces wasn�t so frustrating.

24. I wish I�d stop walking into things, or pushing people (accidently) into the road.

25. I have a lot of friends, and I love them all.

I love Randy Travis' Christmas music. We have a movie about a calf who wants to be a reindeer, Annabelle's Wish, that's it. Travis narrates and sings quite a bit.

Omg I can't believe other people have heard of him and like him I think I own everything by him (including Xmas albums ) and i love three wooden crosses, possibly my favourite by him. Do you like country and western in general or is Randy Travis just a one off?

I wasn't aware Three Wooden Crosses was him, That's such a great song.

And I like the newer country. Some of the old stuff, too, but I'm not big on being depressed,
