Oh boy...seems I don't watch too many classics either
Take your age and for every year write a random fact, or something people on your friend list don't know.
19 - When I do quizzes, I answer so that I'll get the result I want, and not necessarily the true one.
18 - I am pretty sensitive to comments people make about about me, even if they're not meant to be rude. I want everyone to like me.
17 - I prefer to go unnoticed most of the time. (HAHA, fat chance, you six-foot tall black female!)
16 - I try to make logical unbiased arguments about myself all the time, but worry that I'm still twisting the story to my advantage.
15 - I say mean things a lot, but then always feel terrible for saying them.
14 - I tried to get fired at work by slacking off, and instead I got a thirty cent raise.
13 - I fear that I'm the worst soccer player ever, but can't give it up.
12 - I feel self-conscious about my nose and lips. (If both were just a little bit smaller...)
11 - I believe the end of the world is pretty close because I have apocalyptic dreams. Often.
10 - My procrastination problem is a habit I'd like to fix, but keep putting off.
9 - When I'm around black people I don't know, I try to act a little more ghetto.
8 - I know that I'm social, but feel so awkward talking to people, I say that I'm antisocial.
7 - I used to believe that humans could communicate with Angels.
6 - I've never smoked weed, because I'm terrified that I'll like it too much.
5 - I don't consider myself a 'nurturer', and so will be the worst parent ever.
4 - However, I'd still like to adopt.
3 - I worry that I will go to hell...but continue to sin intentionally.
2 - I am a passively angry person.
1 - I got my period when I was 13, but didn't tell my mom until I was sixteen.
