Spring is here, and change is in the air - this post is mainly to displace the previous post - because i felt that it was outdated and possibly not reflective of the way i felt any longer....I'm not sure i can claim to have more optimism about anything, but at least I know that i'm a strong person, and when life gives you sour sour lemons, all you can do is make sweet sweet grapefruit juice :D
Here is a list of ten items about me, in a parody of a meme ganked from Su. Eight of these are true, and two are not. Who can guess which is which? Since most of you on this friends list know me too well, this should be a piece of cake.
1. I hate carrots (they're my most detested vegetable) but love carrot cake - i generally dont even like sweets to begin with, but carrot ake is just awesome :D
2. I once climbed a mountain in a tank top, and then at the top, i realised that i had been burnt to a CRISP, and felt like a piece of peking duck, and by the time i got to the bottom, i had almost third degree burns on my shoulders and down my back.
3. When i was living in rhode island, my best friend was a boy, and we slept over at each others houses a lot, and were really into power rangers and calvin and hobbes, and goosebumps, and all that other good stuff, and one day he hit me in the head with a baseball bat and i got really dizzy, and was angry at him for all of 10 minutes, then we made up and it was all good.
4. One of my greatest fears is of silhouettes....and the other is of car accidents - which is why i'll never drive, because i dont want to cause anyone else harm in that regard (which i will, if i get behind the wheel).
5. I like to think things through before i decide on anything - because its been my experience that impulses lead to rash decisions = bad....thus it takes me a while to make an informed decision
6. I dont like small dogs or big dogs- but i like medium sized dogs, because they're neither yappy nor frightening. Although i would really like a dog to run with on trails and such.
7. When i was 4 i broke my right arm at the elbow joint, but i was young, so it healed pretty fast and thats why i can bend my arm back almost 200 degrees.
8. In winnipeg, once i sped down the highway (just a really crowded street) on a bike, high on absinthe at 4 am in the morning....because there were no buses and i needed to get home from downtown, and it was a 45 minute ride....good times!
9. I haven't lived at home for more than 2 weeks since i was 17
10. I'm very selective aout the fruits i eat, and have a phobia of rotten fruit and vegetables. I dont like apples and my three favorite fruits are pinapple, mango, and lychee.
