nicked from my sis on myspace
the players of this game start with the "5 weird things/habits about themselves" and then pass it along or post their own blog/bulletin to see who else is crazy out there... i will begin :)
1) the number 3 and 5 are great. the number 9 freaks me out. I have weird things about numbers. I like to wake up at 8:12am and go to sleep at 11:17pm. I like to be on my cell phone for less than 56 seconds. I like to do two loads of laundry at a time, but no more than 4 because then I have to spend more than 4 dollars and I like to spend even amounts of money. I'm really strange, it's fine.
2) i am terrified that I have some severe mental illness. I don't actually think I do, say, right this second, but at any given time during the day I may get this intense heart racing, or start thinking about being involved in a murder or hostage, or start getting the urge to hit people. Sometimes I say entire sentences without knowing I said them. Matt makes fun of me and says i have Tourette's. it might not be a joke. Sometimes I want to hit people - not to hurt them, but just because I want to see their reaction. I DON'T hit people, but sometimes my brain wants to.
3) I have places for everything. My school ID belongs in the middle of my desk, face up. My cell phone should be charging on the corner of the desk. My bathroom door should be open the width of the widest part of my hand, and no more or less. although when it's light out, it can be open all the way. When everything isn't where I left it, even if the place I left it isn't the place it belongs (for example, I often throw off the cardigan I have on and it falls off the back of the chair and drags on the floor), then I get nervous and start kind of freaking out and deeming whatever it is I am looking for "lost." Once my jeans were hung up on a hanger instead of on the chair where I left them, and I thought I lost my favorite jeans. How do you lose jeans in a bedroom? I'm dumb.
4) to copy my sister, i don't particularily like new people. I am terrible at making conversation, unless that conversation involves being sarcastic. It goes along with my self-esteem issues I guess, but I don't know how to be interesting. I hate meeting people, especially when they're friends with my already-friends, and the thing I hate most is when I feel like I am alone even when I'm with a lot of people. That goes along with the joint #4 - I am terrified of being alone forever. I cannot possibly understand why someone would want to spend a lot of time with me, no less the rest of their life, and so think that I will be alone and sad forever. I hope not, but maybe.
5) I like being alone. However, when I'm not, pay attention to me. I'm like an infant, and I need to be noticed. I will poke you with my feet, interrupt your conversation, start making weird noises, whine, ask if I can use things that I obviously don't need to ask for ("can I use one of these tissues?" or "is it okay if I use my phone while you're playing nintendo?"), and claim I need you to read me my notes while I'm studying (which doesn't help me at all). I will insist that I am hungry, announce using the bathroom, and randomly dance. I like attention all the time, even if it's negative attention, and I bask in both "hey beautiful" and "shut the heck up" equally. When I'm alone, I can amuse myself forever, like a baby who sucks her thumb alone... but the minute you make eye contact with a baby he'll start crying or cooing - and so will I.
I could go on and write about 10 more weird quirks, but I'll cease for now.
and I tag: anyone who wants to do it. I check my flist like crazy and new entries are always welcome. =)
