The 25 Things Meme
So I was tagged for this by wayuptomars a while ago, and also recently by without_pith on Facebook. I resisted until now, because thinking up 25 facts about myself is hard to do. But, well, I did it. So.
01) Reality shows are a guilty pleasure of mine. I loved Paris Hilton's My New BFF and The Simple Life! (But I never watch shows like Big Brother or those dating ones.)
02) My most recent girlcrush is on the girl in the Progressive commercials. Adorable!
03) I hate cheese, except on pizza. I'm actually kind of irrationally afraid of it. I will screech or tear up if it touches me :\ I'm mildly embarrassed about that.
04) Whenever I can (ie. don't have to get up early for work/appointments/what have you), I wake up at 10:00AM to listen to You Bet Your Ass, then watch The Price is Right and Family Feud. I love game shows!
05) I like to read books, but I don't do it very often because I'm a relatively slow reader and I get restless if I'm not completely engrossed in the story.
06) I'm a hopeless romantic and love love love all things romantic. Valentine's Day is one of my all-time favourite days of the year! ♥!!
07) I'm a Superfan™ of alliteration.
08) I used to want to be a lawyer, a talent agent, an antique appraiser, a cartoon animator and an illustrator before finally realizing that I loved fashion and wanted to design clothes. Going to fashion school made me realize how much I dislike runway fashion and my love of movies made me want to be a costume designer.
09) I'm pretty bad at studying and remembering languages, generally, but I'm currently teaching myself Japanese, and I think I'm doing pretty well with it! すごい!
10) As much as I enjoy playing videogames every so often, I think I enjoy watching other people play them a lot more. Ever since the SNES became outdated, I'm just not that great with the newfangled controls and 3D graphics.
11) I've been eating more and more Asian foods lately (thanks to Amandar)! My latest food love is wasabi.
12) I hate babies. Like, so much. Sorry; if you have one, I'll be nice to it and stuff, but I'll be counting the seconds 'til I can GTFOutta there.
13) I think I look better in glasses than without them, and I hate contacts, but sometimes I wish I could have contacts anyway, so that I could wear cool sunglasses.
14) I hate asking store clerks if they have what I'm looking for in stock. I find it to be embarrassing and a hassle, because very often, I'm looking for something so obscure that they've never heard of it anyway.
15) I have a social anxiety problem, which, for whatever reason, is the worst when I have to talk to people whom I don't know (or know very well) on the phone.
16) I'm in love with blue lobsters, they're sooo pretty! Also related, you can buy blue crawfish for home aquariums, and I really want one.
17) I love parody porn, and am starting somewhat of a collection of it XD I'm on the Great Hunt for one of the rarest pornos ever, Ron Jeremy's Super Hornio Brothers.
18) I'm not too proud to say that I'm a tremendous crybaby. It's actually one of my favourite things about me, though I don't know why. It must be annoying to others.
19) I wish I could sing. I love singing, but only when I have the house to myself and no one can hear me. I'm not perfect at it by any means :P But I'd love to be able to make people happy by singing.
20) As much as a zombie apocalypse would suck, I think it would be interesting to see how I'd fare during one.
21) One of my favourite things ever is waking up to the sun beaming into my room, and staying all cuddling up under a bunch of blankets for a while.
22) I'm really into home decor lately, to the point that I'm collecting all sorts of household things for my future apartment. I love retro 50s design, and romantic gothic/Edwardian/lolita styles.
23) I hate beaches, but I think they're romantic, so I always want to walk along them at sunset like in the movies :B
24) I still have the three bottles of Dan Aykroyd wine that I got for Christmas. Anyone who knows how much I love Dan Aykroyd wine may find that shocking.
25) I'm currently itching to go to Toronto to do some shopping. I can't wait! I want to go to Chinatown Centre for some Japanese-imported Kit-Kats sooooo badly.
