quirks
Ground Rules: Write an LJ entry about 5 of your quirkier habits, then tag 5 more people to do the same.
1. if i'm eating something i have to chew the same amount of food on my left side as i do my right. if i'm eating candies like skittles i have to eat them 2 at a time, and i try as hard as i can to make sure both are the same color.
2. if i'm out to eat, or sitting somewhere with things on the table, i'll arrange everything on the table in size order. i'll also try to sort them by color, type, etc
3. i cant stand if my room/apartment is clean and 1 thing is out of place. however i dont have problems if its generally just a mess because then everything is chaos and its not just one disordered thing. this used to extend to myself though i've lightened up a bit. i remember in middle school if i put my hair in a ponytail and one hair was sticking the wrong way, i'd have to find a new way to do my hair so that each strand was going in the same direction.
4. i cannot stand the sound of chewing. i love food but i hate eating because i can hear myself chew. one of the most challanging things i have to do on a daily basis is eat with someone else, because inevitably i will be able to hear them chew
5. i cant stand pimples/blackheads/whiteheads. the thought of dirt/foreign bodies under my skin skeeves me beyond belief. in fact, pretty much anything inside my body that doesnt belong grosses me out. pregnancy is by far the grossest thing i can imagine. this is something that i am going to have to get over.
so i'm tagging... carol, krisa, krissie j, brian even though he never updates, and christine :)
