I'm building a sill to slow down the time

10 random quirks about yours truly: in which you can learn more about me than you probably want to! :D

1) I love penguins. Come to my room sometime, it's like "where's Waldo?" except with penguins. Then you can meet Pinguino (if you haven't already)! :D

2) I always write "grey" instead of "gray." It's just a thing. I think it looks nicer with the 'e.' :]

3) I don't walk normally, I shuffle. I only just noticed it a few years ago, too. Consequently, people can always tell when I'm approaching and the bottoms of my shoes get worn down pretty fast.

4) I'm slightly OCD about everything changing the volume on the television. It always has to be an even number. Yeah...I don't even know.

5) I prefer verbalizing the word "sigh" over actually sighing. (And "weep.") If you've been around me enough, I'm sure you've noticed it and/or been annoyed by it. :P

6) I have a terrible sense of direction. This is why I never know how to get to places. If I've never physically driven or walked/traveled there myself, chances are I don't know how to get there. I still don't know how to get to the Point church from Douglass, for instance. I keep trying to pay attention when Tony drives us every Sunday morning, but that scenario usually ends with me stirring from a reverie. Bahaha.

7) I have a really strange way of speaking Mandarin Chinese when I'm around my immediate family. Like, I distort the words. I can't really explain it adequately; you'd have to hear it. It's not even intentional anymore sometimes; it just happens because I've done it so much already. (Speaking of my family, I'm an entirely different person when I'm around them. "Weird" is an understatement. :3)

8) It may not seem like it when you first meet me, but sarcasm is like breathing for me. That side of me doesn't usually come out until we know each other well enough, though. Such is life when you're a socially awkward person who needs twice the amount of time as an average person does to connect with people. And when I say "you," I mean me. True story. (But it makes me appreciate the people who stick around even more. <3)

9) If we have a television show or two (or y'know...ten) in common, we will probably get along fine. Extra cool points if you watch Supernatural, Lost, and/or Dexter. :)

10) Contrary to popular belief, I love hugs. It makes me sad that people think I don't like them.


P.S. Blogspot confuses me. They should just link your follower thumbnails to the actual blogs, so I don't have to waste so much time blindly searching for them (and failing). Link me to your blog if I haven't found you yet, pretty please. :)

P.P.S. My atypical development class has already been cancelled for tomorrow. That leaves me with...ZERO CLASSES TOMORROW. WHAT UPPP.

    10- Me too :(

    And in response to your comment, thanks... and I hope you're able to grow from it too. I'm not gonna lie; it takes a long time (probably different for everyone) and there are days when I still miss him and wonder what he's doing now or if he's found someone else, but God is always faithful :) And you have friends that care about you also <3

    I'm sad you're not an English major anymore. I would have read your books or articles or whatever you wrote. I've made a grand total of like ten dollars this week as a "freelance writer" (I take existing articles and make them sound better)... obviously not a viable career path for me =P
