I stole this from one of my favorite favorites :-).  I have had trouble finding the motivation to write lately, so I’m hoping this will spark some more entries.

 

1.       I have some of my Mom’s “heebie jeebies,” as we call them.  They’re sort of premonitions I suppose, or knowing something has just happened.  It happens rarely with me, almost never, but one instance in my life that it happened was when I was 17 and partying with a friend, another couple at a coworker’s house.  He was 16.  Around 3 or 4 am I woke my boyfriend up and said we had to leave.  I had a bad feeling and just had to leave.  He was pissed, but we left.  I got a call the next day that my 16 year old coworker had killed his father, and heard on the news later that day that the body was in the house while we were there.  Creepy.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-indent: -0.25in; margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1″>2.       I took piano lessons for 8 years.  I rarely play these days but when I buy a house, my first investment will be in a piano.  I would love to have a baby grand like the one in my parents’ house.

3.       I attended Kindergarten and first grade in the same year.  I told my parents I was bored because I already knew everything they were teaching in Kindergarten so the counselor evaluated me and put me in Kindergarten in the mornings and first grade in the afternoons.

4.       When I was younger (elementary and middle school age) I would sometimes cry in the morning just after waking up.  I never really had a good reason, perhaps that I didn’t want to go to school, but I did it when I was just fine with going to school that day also.  No one ever knew about it.  I always cried quietly, alone in my room.  I still sometimes cry for no reason at all, but never in the mornings.

5.       I will 1 year clean on October 30th.  I am extremely proud of that because I have been clean on my own accord, not because I am friends with/dating whoever who doesn’t want me to do drugs.

6.       I have the tendency to self-medicate when I’m having a bad day/week/whatever.  My medication of choice is alcohol.

7.       I have an intense jealous streak.  Fortunately, I am dating a man who I believe has that same streak in him and we’re both aware of that so we act accordingly.

8.       I have one bright red/orange hair on my head.  Just one.

9.       I have a birthmark on my…. Ya know… lol

10.   Almost every time I get up from sitting/lying to standing, my knees or hips will pop.  It’s not painful or anything – just makes the noise.  I’m only 25 so I don’t know what this will mean for me when I’m old and arthritic lol.

11.   If I eat an apple, I get hunger pains afterward.  It’s almost as if an apple negates anything else I have eaten that day.

12.   I am half Filipino – my Mom is Filipino and my Dad is white.

13.   </sp

an>I am really shy, but am very good at appearing to be calm and pushing past my shyness in order to appear fairly outgoing and personable.

14.   I am halfway through getting my MBA.  I will continue on to get my Doctorate.  Not to work toward a specific job or anything.  I just want to say that I completed not only my Bachelor’s and Master’s but my Doctorate as well.

15.   My favorite color is red.  I was known in high school for wearing red almost all the time.
