Random Stuff You Don’t Want To Know But I’m Telling You Anyway

To my friends,

(1) I am terribly fond of ridiculous stuffed animals, such as Ted…

(2) I hate the sound of my own voice, it grates on my ears… (don’t ask me why I talk so much :P)

(3) I am OCD about the volume on speakers; it must end in 0, 5, or be an even number.

(4) I am a people person, and I love being around people, but sometimes I prefer being alone.

(5) When I wash dishes, I organize each utensil.

(6)  I wish I spoke more languages, that I had paid more attention in Spanish class…

(7) I sewed my thumb to a piece of fabric once - pulling the thread out was SO ticklish :P

(8) I am deathly afraid of pain, although if I hurt myself or if I’m in pain, it usually doesn’t bother me much
Example - doing a flip off a diving board. I am frightened of hurting myself - I did it once and hurt myself, but was fine. I won’t do it again though, because I’m frightened of hurting myself terribly

(9) I don’t like talking on the phone. I prefer face-to-face conversation.

(10)  I am a pack-rat when it comes to beads, and clothes that people give me.

(11)I love sunrises and sunsets

(12)I have not had a spotless room in years. There always seems to be something new to clean.

(13) I highly dislike the number 13 :P

(14) My greatest hope is that people who meet me once and might never remember my name, would know that I knew Christ.

(15) I’m addicted to taking pictures of plants. I don’t care if it’s clichéd and people have done it before. They are my pictures and I love them!

(16) I may complain, but I love my brother dearly.

(17) 17 is my favorite number :D

(18) I am obsessed with light, I dislike darkness, and I love looking at different kinds of light: different bulbs, LCD, strobe, colored lights, camera flashes, flashlights, lamps, the sun, anything with light involved.

(19) I have never broken a bone (crossing my fingers)

(20) I can’t sing to save my life (shhh, don’t tell Heidi, she hasn’t figured it out yet :P)

With Love,
Marilla
