here's 20 random facts about myself (giegie tagged me). i noticed lately there have been lots of these 'taggings' going on, i guess we can't avoid it!
1. i sniff my hair at random times throughout the day, sometimes i don't even realize i'm doing it until someone points it out ... i guess i smell my hair when i'm bored, anxious, want to smell something better than skunks, etc.
2. i have an near obsessive compulsion to brush my teeth a lot and i need to go to the bathroom at least twice before i actually fall asleep. i would ideally like to brush my teeth every time after i eat something, but this is not always possible -- so i settle for eclipse gum. i suppose this is because i don't like to have a food taste in my mouth, and i don't like to have to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.
3. i always like to carry around 'treats' in my purse or bag -- anything from gum, candy, chips, drinks, etc. one time in sunday school i set out all my snacks on the table and someone called me a 'walking corner store.' i guess this is because i never like to feel unprepared in case i get hungry, and i like to share food and candy with others.
4. i love checking my e-mail and feel giddy when i receive a personal note or message from various friends, especially if it's just on the fly - like just today i received an e-mail from someone i haven't heard from in a while =).
5. kids at ms fellowship brighten my heart, and bring out the silly side of me.
6. i like to dance to my own beat especially when i hear catchy songs, (at ms camp i had a dance-off with another leader - including break dancing and cheerleader moves!)
7. i use my 'passion fruit' lotion a lot because i like the smell of it.
8. i read my bible while i'm waiting for the bus to go to work in the morning.
9. people say i have a quirky sense of humor (i agree) -- the silly side comes out especially after 11pm.
10. i like to learn about and study history, especially about the asian american experience, and like to hear people's testimonies of how they came to know Christ.
11. i like to save the last bits of things (or not finish things), whether it's food, drinks, lotion, shampoo, etc., perhaps because want to hold onto the experience it gave me -- such as a good book or movie. i eventually finish it, but i can delay it for a time. i can watch a movie in parts, that is, i can watch half an hour and go to sleep, and perhaps not watch it again until a week later (but i can also watch an entire movie if i'm with other people.)
12. i love the 80s! well, music, movies, and some of the fashion (i like to shop for bargains too). i also just love music in general; i used to play the cello and piano.
13. i'm extremely ticklish, even if someone makes a tickling motion but doesn't touch me.
14. i like to share deeply with sisters in Christ who don't mind being vulnerable, but it takes time to cultivate the relationship.
15. i'm a closet messy person (i guess it's out now) -- just like monica on friends. people think i'm neat and organized, which i can be at times, but my room tends to get on the sloppy side especially on the weekends.
16. my first instinct is to deal with conflict in a passive agressive manner, but i've been learning how better to deal with conflict in the 'basic life principles' seminar at fellowship.
17. i used to be terrified of any and all dogs when i was younger, but now i have two dogs, including one who has been known to bite people; don't worry, we always prevent him from seeing people (except this weekend chester nearly attacked yuli, and i had to jump between them).
18. i like to write to express my thoughts or convey ideas to others.
19. i like to cook and bake things, and my favorite food is chicken.
20. i try to look on the positive side of things, and don't mind lending a listening ear to folks who just want to talk.
these are my 20 bits for now ... hmm, i will now tag:
