random fact about me #001
Jan. 28th, 2013 12:20 pmI replied to every one on my flist, I'd feel too pressured to think of a
new fact every time. So instead, I'm just gonna post random facts as I
think of them. FUN facts. :)
Random Fact #001 -- During the summer before my senior year of high school,
I took a trip to Australia with the student ambassadors group called
"People to People". It was 18 days of awesome and I want to go back to
Australia SO MUCH! It was a blast to be on a guided tour but now I want to
experience it as an adult. SOME DAY!

Jan. 28th, 2013 04:31 pmMy mom didn't want to get them pierced when I was a baby because she
thought that was weird (plus it was trendy at the time and my family is
always anti-trend...unless it's electronic LOL).
I was too scared of the pain, I don't like pain.
But my Uncle kept giving me earrings as gifts and I couldn't wear them so I
figured I better get them pierced! My friend Amanda went with me and I
held the big teddy bear and got it done and it hurt and I am never doing it
again.
Needless to say, I have no other piercings or tattoos - just can't deal
with the pain or the commitment!

Random fact #003
Jan. 28th, 2013 09:18 pmI spent an entire summer playing either Tetris and Dr Mario while listening to books on cassette.
I listened to Edgar Allan Poe's short stories, Stephen King's Nightmares and Dreamscapes, Jurassic Park (abridged...several times because I owned it), Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul (which I can still quote to this day).
You see, when you play Tetris in total silence, you concentrate too much, second guess yourself and end up making stupid mistakes. If you're listening to music, you end up singing along and getting distracted. But stories kept me just distracted enough but not so much I would make mistakes. I actually made it to the last level of Tetris. I don't think I beat it, but I remember the Kremlin blasting into space...
