6 weird things about you

Switzerland
August 1, 2007 6:31pm CST
1. I'm a vegetarian. It's not supposed to be a weird thing; a large proportion of people here in Britain are vegetarians. Apparently, some of my friends find it weird, esp. when we go to fastfood chains and it's a toss between French fries and salad...and the occasional veggie burger. 2. I wanna do loaaaaddds of things. I am intending to read Maths in uni; previous choices included Psycology, Medicine, Nutrition/Dietitics, Advertising and Media Studies. I am actually thinking of extending my stay in college by a year to polish my English, learn a foreign language (Spanish most probably), take AS Photography and Philosophy and do a part-time job alongside piles of schoolwork. 3. I don't have a sense of direction. I just get lost all the time. 4. I am an extremist. In acads for instance, I can be super hardworking, i.e. read all the books I can possibly lay my hands on, stay up til the wee hours of the morning, etc. On the other hand, I can be super lazy, i.e. not revising at all and convince myself that I can scrape a pass anyway. 5. I don't know how to ride a bike. My mom never allowed me to ride on one coz she wanted my legs to be scar-free. 6. I do eat a LOT. Just because I'm a vegetarian doesn't mean that I have anorexic tendencies. I've always been slim even before I gave up meat and fish. How about you? What are 6 weird things about you?

1. I am a female but I am not interested in jewelry. 2. I am married but I don't wear the wedding ring. 3. Sometimes I am like a child. 4. Sometimes I still treat the people who were bad to me before nice. 5. I don't want to go to see a doctor unless I feel so sick and serious. 6. It's easy for me to believe others.

I'm not big on jewelry either but I do wear my wedding ring. My husband use to buy me necklaces but I think he quit because I would hardly ever wear them. I forget to put them on.

My husband doesn't mind I don't wear the wedding ring. Actually we don't wear it. It doesn't mean that we will betray to each other or tell others we are still single. I just don't like wear the jewelry and it's also not safe to wear it outside.

1. I'm not also interested in the jewelry. ;) 2. How does your hubbie feel about you not wearing your wedding ring? 3. I believe there will always be a child in us. 6. I find it very easy to believe and trust other people, too. I don't think that is bad, do you?

I have very poor sense of direction as well as I get lost easily, even with a map. LOL It took me 37 years to finally start enjoying seafood. I learned to enjoy seafood while on vacation in North Carolina. I bought a new car back in June and have been taking the bus to work most of the time. I have more guys hit on me than girls. I enjoy all the Philadelphia sports teams. Many people like teams of other cities. I have a bike in my shed but have not ridden it yet.

Don't worry, you're not the only one with a poor sense of direction. But this baffles me, why are you not using your new car as much and choose to take the bus instead? The buses here in my place are very unreliable as they rarely follow their schedules. Well, about more guys hitting on you than girls, that does sound a bit odd to me. Lastly, I cannot ride a bike but I am willing to learn!:)

It's not to the point of being obsessive compulsive, i don't think...LOL I guess i'm a health freak and yeah, it's complicated to be pregnant, but all worth it in the end!
• Switzerland

2. Are you obsessive-compulsive, then? 4. A hypochondriac or just a health freak, like me? 5. Guess it really is complicated to be pregnant, and that's 9 months!

I didn't get married until I was almost 40. I studied Hotel Restaurant Management in college, got a degree in it and I went to work for an optometrist. I'm adopted. I have been a vegetarian before and eat very little meat now. The mere smell of buttermilk (and sometimes just the thought) makes me gag. I sneeze for several minutes straight when I eat too much. I saw a UFO when I was about 11 or 12 yrs old. I married the only Japanese American within probably 50 miles of here. I suffer from depression and ADD but still did well in school (even graduated a year early). I know that is over 6 but I'm really a weird person, lol.

Well it was so long ago I don't remember much but there was several in this area over a few nights so I decided to park my chair by the window and wait, lol. Finally I saw something hovering around the tree line and I remember seeing multicolor lights flashing. I ran to get my parents and of course when I got back it was gone. I don't know if it was anything from "another world" or not but it certainly caught my interest. I wish I had stayed seated and watched it longer.

Please do tell more about your UFO sighting! I've never come across anyone who admitted that.

I agree! Tell us more about the UFO sighting. Did you see anything out-of-this-world? It's nice to know I've got a fellow vegetarian here. About the sneezing, at least it stops you from overeating. lol

I have claws instead of normal toenails on my little toes. the nail grows straight out, pointed, and curls over, like a claw. I have blonde hair, but dye it black because I prefer the way it looks. I tan easily too, but stay out of the sun. my belly button is a combination of an inny and an outty. I use my Mums surname I'm right handed, but eat with my fork in my right hand and knife in my left. I waist train in a 20" corset, and wear stockings with a belt, instead of tights

Here's mine: 1. I worry about what others think of me. 2. When I'm attracted to a guy I have a hard time looking him in the eye 3. When someone hurts me I pull away from them 4. I am directionally challenged...tell me street names or right or left or a landmark to look for, NOT north, south, east, or west...even though I'm getting better! 5. I still have the bike...well at my parent's house, that my brother gave me for Christmas some years ago and I've still not learned to ride it...I tried, but have yet to master it. 6. I have a love hate relationship with exercise and eating right

2. Rings true with me as well! 4. I'm getting better, too. Liverpool streets are more organised than that of Manila. 6. I always tell myself I'd exercise but I guess it's easier said than done.
