It's one of those "Dear Livejournal" days.
First off, this made me laugh. NSFW for language, I guess. I'm watching it at work, but we can get away with a lot of stuff.

1. I am the pickiest eater you will ever meet. I don't eat fruits or vegetables because either the texture of it or the taste of it grosses me out. I eat very plain things. If it's a sandwich, I'll normally stick to turkey and cheese and that's it. When basalt made escarole soup and I ate some, that was a Big Step for me. I'm totally aware of my horrible eating habit, but I'm a stubborn person, so... yeah! *sticks out tongue*
2. I've developed a fear of the ocean over the years. I used to spend something like five or six hours in the water when I was younger. The area I grew up in had very flat, very sandy beaches where you could walk out pretty far and your feet wouldn't leave the ground. Of course, I'd take a board out with me so I could past where the waves were breaking. Now, if I can't see what's on the ground, I don't go out. It took me a little while to go out into the water when I went to Fiji, but just look at the coral they have there! And little creatures! And poisonous things! I have STANDARDS when it comes to beaches. The East Coast grosses me out. Sorry, folks. Not a fan of the Atlantic.
3. I am never satisfied with anything I draw. Ever.
4. As you may know, I have an addiction to drinking Coke. I'm trying very hard to break it, but last month, it all went to hell and I'm bad as ever. I prefer drinking out of cans, but I can never finish a can because it tastes different at the end. So if I'm at your home and you find half-drunk cans of Cokes about... sorry.
5. I have a horrible memory. I'm not so bad on recognizing faces, but it's the names that mess me up. It took me a couple of months to remember one of my coordinator's names, and this is someone I'd work with daily! And I was a terrible test taker, too. I'd study and study and study, but nothing would stick.
6. I like getting to movie theaters ridiculously early because I need to sit in the best seat. I know I piss off my friends because of this (I love you!), but hey! We get awesome seats!
7. I can't think of a seven. Flavia burnt my tongue.

1. Monkey Island: Best. Game. Ever. First game I was into with my best friend. I remember going to her house for a sleepover and we played straight for ten hours. Now you can beat it in a matter of seconds! Well. Maybe a little longer than that. I rebought the game a few years ago along with the three sequels (MI1 is classic, MI2 is... weird. I was stuck for forever and I thought it was a glitch, but I finally beat it. MI3 is pretty and ANIMATED. MI4 is meh and slow.). I had a huge crush on Guybrush Threepwood.
2. Castle of Doctor Brain: You can tell I was into those puzzle solving video games. The robot level would always piss me off because I'd swear it'd change every time. I played Island of Doctor Brain as well, but I barely remember that one.
3. Oregon Trail. Yes. The ORIGINAL Oregon Trail. The one you played at school on the Apple IIe's. You'd list the your best friends as your family and they'd all die of dysentery and then you'd leave clever epitaphs on tombstones. I used to make someone else do the floating down the river bit at the end because I was terrified I'd crash into the rocks.
4. Super Mario Bros: I never owned a Nintendo console. We didn't have one until you could start getting the N64s used. So I would go over to my friends' houses to play theirs, whether they had Nintendo or Sega or whatever. I've only beaten Mario once, I think. But not bad for someone who doesn't own it!
5. Duck Hunt: That dumbass dog. That's all I have to say.
Now this is making me want to play my DS. Damn it.
