Sep. 17th, 2005 11:42 amWrite 20 random facts about yourself then tag the same amount of people as minutes it takes you to write the facts. If you're tagged it's your turn. Tagging is for sheep. I'm doing this 'cause it looks fun.
1. I am taller than my mother.
2. I am a huge theatre buff, but for the 2.3 years I've been trying out for the plays, I have never gotten a part -_-; The first time I had a part, the play was canceled two weeks before the opening night.
3. I have never been on a date or had a boyfriend in my life. I have accepted the invitation to dinner for one person, but when I gave him my number and told him to call and pick the place, he never did.
4. I was homeschooled until 9th grade. And was harrassed by other kids about it.
5. While I am the most talkitive person in my group of friends, I am probably the most shy of them all.
6. I am probably one of the only people in the world who *likes* being in school on my birthday. I'm a little disappointed that my birthday is on a weekend this year.
7. My birthday is always the weekend of or right after Katsucon. Sometimes that makes it turn out to be my present.
8. I hate using the phone, with few exceptions IE
evenshadowscry calling me every day.
9. I'm normally a really sweet person, but when I'm mad, I'm REALLY mad. Some days I will get upset over the stupidest things. I was an ANGRY Freshman.
10. I tend to get really paranoid.
11. I have been to a total of 8 days worth of anime conventions, 3 days of Otakon, the rest one day of Katsucon. Outside of anime, I cannot count the number of conventions I have attended.
12. My Grandparents cut out the scene in Bambi where his mother is shot because they thought I would be upset about it. I'm more upset about the censorship than about seeing Bambi's mom die.
13. When I was 4 I had to get 6 stitches in my lower lip because I was hit by a swing. Mom claims it was because I fell, but I distinctly remember the swing comming at me.
14. We were dirt poor when I was little, but the best present we ever got among all the food and hand-me-down clothes was season tickets to King's Dominion. Most of our friends don't understand how much that meant to us.
15. I am very cuddly. Stupid people (IE school) assume that means I'm a lesbian just because most of my cuddly-close friends are girls.
16. My favorite restaurants are Old Country Buffet and Melting Pot
17. I cry at the drop of a hat
18. I know a person who actually hates computers
19. I am extremely phobic of Goths. The only exception is people I know, but that's mostly because it's just the make-up. I'm talking full-out Goths, make-up AND attitude.
20. I love improv, but I can't always do it well.

Date: 2005-09-17 07:55 pm (UTC)3. I recently got a t-shirt that said "I have multiple personalities; I can date you and your friends" ... which I thought was at least amusing, aside from being potentially offensive to people who have had bad experiences with MPD, but which also drew the remark, "Except that you're not dating anyone, are you? And you never have. So that kinda makes it either ironic or pathetic, I'm not sure which."
5. I think I'm shyer than you when I'm not at cons, or similar places where I feel actively comfortable and at ease.
6. I like being in school on my birthday too. I mean, people give you presents and attention. I don't see how it's that bad. But my birthday's in the summer. :(
8. Hmm. Really? Interesting. And here I've been considering forcing myself off my computer addiction and using the phone to try and communicate with you more. Because I like corresponding with you, but -- well, I'm bad at it, and the computer (which is the most useful tool to do so) is, I think, bad for me.
I'm glad you talk to evenshadowscry so often, though.
15. Same here, except I don't mention that enough to people at school for them to assume I'm a lesbian. I think that may be the reason I have so much trouble interacting with others, though -- "normal" people tend to keep more distance between each other than we might. Than I'm used to.
19. Love you too, hon. *g* -- kidding -- what I mean to say, is that I'm glad you're differentiating between goths who bring the attitude (of whom it is somewhat reasonable to be afraid) and goths who dress goth as protective coloring.
-a procrastinating Rinn, who loves you very much

and in the first paragraph, click on "bad" and they're kindof using your pictures. I don't know if you gave them permission or not.

Date: 2005-09-18 05:25 pm (UTC)Frosty the Snowman, because
I cry when Frosty melts. I'm such an old softie. On the other hand, when
people want a guy to go watch chick flicks with them, I'm handy to have
around.
