jumping.on.the//bandwagon [27 May 2007|09:09pm] [ mood | mellow ] 10 Weird Things About Me 1) Semi-clairvoyant. It’s complicated. 2) I'm pretty cool with bugs, lizards and snakes, but I HATE wasps! I will crush any scorpion that makes his way into my kitchen, but I have been known to send my poor mother after a wasp that was in another room. 3) I absolutely love storms as long as I'm in a building, but I will freak out if I'm driving or otherwise in a vehicle during a storm, particularly ones that produce hail, frequent cloud-to-ground lightning, and potential tornadoes. Yes, I am speaking from many different experiences. I think this stems from having seen lightning hit both the back tire on a car driving in front of me as well as a rubber welcome mat about 15 feet from me. 4) I am told that I have amazing hearing abilities. Move over, Clark Kent! 5) I look absolutely nothing like my parents, but I'm not adopted (at least, they swear I'm not...) But I do look eerily like one of my cousins. 6) I also seem to have an evil clone out there. My AP Bio teacher asked me where she knew me from the first day I met her and twice store clerks have said “back again already?” to me even though I had never or rarely been into the stores. In fact, yesterday I went to a sports store (for the second time ever!) to purchase something and the manager accused me of being “the girl who comes in and switches [his] price labels.” 7) I have been asked if I were an albino. I wish I had replied in the affirmative... 8) I am surprisingly good at some sports: equestrian, soccer, basketball (prior to junior high where height started to be important), street hockey, volleyball, swimming, and tennis. At one point in my life, I even ran cross-country. That I sucked at =( 9) I have low self-confidence and as a result, it takes a while for me to open up to people I don’t know very well. 10) I try to come off as a realist, but in truth I’m an idealist who knows very little of the workings of the real world. Bonus! I get very “into” ideas and allow myself to get carried away easily. I also have the annoying habit of starting more projects than I manage to complete. 2 comments|post comment
