This Looks Fun
Studying for SCI 105 midterms is lame. Therefore, I'm going to do this interesting-looking activity.
Each player of this game starts off with 10 weird things/habits about yourself. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 10 weird habits/things as well as state this rule clearly. At the end you need to choose about 6 people to be tagged and list their names.
1. I take my sandwiches apart to eat them. People seeing this for the first time (especially with hamburgers, I've found) inevitably start cracking up and ridiculing me. It's sad, but also pretty damn funny.
2. This is a really weird one: I have a tendency to carry wrappers/crumpled up pieces of paper/other small objects around in my hand when I'm walking. I'll eat a piece of gum and then carry the wrapper around for an hour or so, even though I pass about 20 trash cans in the process that I could easily throw the wrapper into. Check for this the next time you're walking around with me.
3. Among my irrational fears are a) the number 4 (if you didn't know this about me already, we have a serious problem) and b) parking garages (thank you, Alias).
4. I can't eat anything other than breakfast foods for breakfast. Sorry, no birthday cake and ABSOLUTELY NO COLD PIZZA. Ew.
5. I thoroughly enjoy writing papers in foreign languages, even if they happen to be 7-pagers about the lunatic Rousseau (seriously, what a nutcase). If I'm bored, I'll write an essay in Arabic about, for example, how much I hate my Colloquial Egyptian class. It's surprisingly therapeutic.
6. NOTHING makes me feel more uncomfortable than eating alone in a cafeteria. I'm not kidding--I have nightmares about this. I just feel like everyone's watching me and aaaaaaah. Not good.
7. I have to eat Skittles (and other similar candies) in groups of three. If I don't, the world will undoubtedly explode.
8. I don't like naps. That's right, I said it. They make me feel groggy and disoriented, which sucks.
9. I HATE the word "cunt"--I'm not quite sure why--but if you say it around me, I will not be happy with you, even if I don't show it on the outside. Just a warning.
10. I always have dreams about having to leave for somewhere and not being ready (i.e. I don't have my suitcase packed yet and people are waiting for me). I know this doesn't sound that bad at all, but these dreams really bother me, and I always wake up all panicked and nervous.
And there we have it. Now I should stop being such a bad student and study for my midterm.
Oh, right, I was supposed to tag people. Whatever...do it if you want. It's kind of fun to think about this stuff, though, so I highly recommend it to everyone.
