Friday Five on Monday
From thefridayfive:
What brand and format of hand or body soap do you use?
Usually Irish Spring or Lever bar soap. Those were the last two bulk packs BJ's Wholesale had specials on.
What sort of shampoo?
Head & Shoulders.
How do you shave or remove unwanted hair?
Tweezers for what little there is.
What brand of deodorant or anti-perspirant do you use?
I don't use any.
What kind of toothpaste do you use, and why?
Pepsodent or Aim, any of the sub-dollar brands. It doesn't seem worth spending more on toothpaste any more.
From thefridayfive:
Bully, teacher's pet, geek, shy kid in the corner, or something else?
I was a bully only a few times and only to get someone to stop bothering me. I was mostly the other three.
What did/do you usually eat during lunch time at school?
I had something from the canteen. There were a few items, ranging from burgers to common ethnic foods of the old country.
What did/do you normally wear to school? Thinking back to what you wore(if you've already graduated), do you like it?
Back in the old country, uniforms were required in public school. I had a white shirt and green pants. I hated uniforms.
Any sports/activities/clubs you participate(d) in?
Chess club, just for fun. There was a computer club but it was tough with no working computers.
Any worthwhile friends you (would) still keep up with after graduation?
I saw a few of them on Facebook. Then I deleted my Facebook account. If they thought I was in any way worth keeping in touch with, they would've found me outside of Facebook anyway but none have.
From Friday5.org:
What’s something you recently learned how to do on a computer?
I learnt how to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7 on my laptop.
What’s something you recently learned in the kitchen?
I learnt that it's faster to clean the kitchen sink with a rag than with a brush.
What’s something you recently learned about the town where you live?
I learnt that someone is going around charging $20 per house to paint numbers on the curb.
What’s something you recently learned from television?
That the Sci-Fi (or SyFy) channel is horrible for delaying release of new Warehouse 13 episodes to Hulu.
What’s something you recently learned the hard way?
Never go to South Jersey's pine areas except during the winter because those areas are loaded with chiggers.
