21 Things About Me
Got tagged by underdebate :3 This is only my first entry in what. Almost a year? No big.
- The aforementioned girl is the best part of my life. She's my best friend, the only thing that keeps me even relatively close to sane, and probably the only person actually reading this.
- I come from a huge family history of autoimmune disease I wasn't even aware existed until I was diagnosed with it in 2009. My mother, uncle, grandfather, great-aunt and great-grandfather all have some form of it, and so far I have two disgnosed conditions; ITP and hemolytic anemia (hint: Wikipedia is your friend.)
- I like to think of myself as a mature person but I'm totally not above immature dorkdom. I love things like inappropriate jokes and not paying attention in class and all that jazz, but I like to think my beliefs are mature.
- I'm a self-proclaimed agnostic.
- My name is Jasmine. I'm named after the Disney princess, not the flower.
- Officially I should be able to drive, but I haven't taken my written test yet because my step-father is lazy and doesn't want to take me.
- I have no brain-to-mouth filter when it comes to most people. Just the ones who matter.
- I have a total Irish palette. Spicy food makes me incredibly sick.
- The only thing in the world I can keep clean is my computer folders; they're some of the most organized things you will ever see, especially my story folders.
- I'm incredibly spoiled; I have a Wii, a PS2, a PS3, a DS, a 32-inch TV in my bedroom, a Blackberry Bold, an iPod Touch and I'm getting an XBox360 for Christmas. In addition I have a huge book, game and video collection (although most of the latter were purchased with my own money)
- I'm a dog person, as long as I don't have to be the exclusive caretaker. I've had a dog in at least one of my houses since I was born. Right now I have a shorthair Shih-Tsu named Jackson. I also had a second, older shorthair Shih-Tsu named Bailey, but my grandmother took him with her when she moved out.
- I'm the only daughter on either side of my family. All four of my first cousins are boys. I'm also the only one without a sibling; I have a 4-year-old and 7-year-old cousin on my mom's side to her brother, and a 6-year-old and 11-year-old cousin on my dad's side to his sister.
- I type at 70wpm.
- I'm the only one of my friends who has never officially dated anyone. I'm also more sexually knowledgeable than any of them and they damn well know it.
- I lovelovelove crime shows, everything from CSI to Law & Order to Cold Case to Numb3rs to Crossing Jordan.
- I have a very love/hate relationship with the French language; I'm fairly familiar with it and could probably hold a pretty good conversation, but my marks like to argue otherwise.
- I have a very, very short attention span unless I'm playing video games or watching other people play video games.
- I have frequent issues judging time, for some reason, whether it be hours or days. As such you'll see me consult clocks and my phone almost constantly.
- I can't do a cartwheel, somersault, the splits or anything more complicated than touching my toes, and yet I have the best score in Wii Fit Yoga out of anyone registered on my Wii.
- I live in Canada. Originally I come from the east coast (New Brunswick, specifically), but now I live in Ontario. I'd move back if it weren't for Jess keeping me here.
- I love to swim. I even have a pool. And yet I rarely ever do so for some reason.
