The 25 random things about me thing from Facebook
2009-02-06 09:40:44 ET

1. I am very lazy person, but I'm a bit obsessive about organization. When I organize books or other objects I will often either organize them by size or alphabetically.

2. I am pretty lazy about school, but when it comes to work I am a workaholic. (When working at Toyota for 2 years I never took any kind of day off; personal, sick, vacation, etc.)

3. I probably have 5 years of college, but only an associate's degree to show for it at the moment.

4. My interests will often change on a regular basis. Sooner or later if I like something I lose interest in it.

5. I am often a good judge of character.

6. Growing up I was a very shy person and everyday I battle with social anxieties I grew up with.

7. I have friends that I have known for over 12 years, and may have met them physically once, twice, or not at all but consider them to be some of my closest friends.

8. I can't stand stupid people.

9. I can be brutally honest even when it doesn't call for it because I hate lying.

10. I haven't been in a relationship for several years and not upset about it. =)

11. I use to be a pretty negative and pessimistic person, until one point I felt I hit rock bottom socially. At that point I decided to think positively and have a optimistic outlook, and been pretty content with life ever since.

12. I can be pretty picky about women.

13. I was born with both of my eyes suffering from strabismus and had surgeries to fix it. Was fine til I was 5 when an accident caused by my sister caused it to come back in my left eye. Had several surgeries for it since then, and still have it. Any surgery at this point would be for cosmetic reasons.(Strange thing is I have no family history with eye problems)

14. I like others depending on me, but I don't like depending on others.

15. Even though I may have a backlog of movies or shows to watch, I'll often watch whatever is on TV at the moment.

16. I have never read a book for fun.

17. I am afraid of heights. (Not flying, just being in a high place if there is not much support)

18. I haven't weighed 210lbs(current weight) since junior year in high school.

19. I've gone days without sleeping which one time resulted in me having hallucinations while driving back from Boston at 2AM in the rain.

20. I hate drama, I have broken off contact or friendships because I don't want to deal with something that could have be avoided with honesty.

21. I love gory horror movies, but real blood and injures make me nauseous and give me anxiety.

22. I am extremely indecisive.(don't ever let me decide where to eat for dinner)

23. I am a night owl. I can't do anything I want to do unless it's between 6PM to 6AM. For example laundry, there have been times I go to do laundry at 2AM.

24. I often like to plan ahead, but I have no real long term goals. I prefer to live in the moment because my interests are ever changing.

25. I love so much music yet can't play a single instrument.

I also love gory horror movies but I could never see that happen in reality. I'd probably pass out.

#3 is also the same for me.

Whenever I see #3 I think of the scene in Tommy Boy where Chris Farley goes "You know, a lot of people go to college for seven years." And David Spade says "Yeah, they're called 'doctors'." I think I'm heading down the 7 year path. But I won't be called a doctor.

With the gory stuff, like I can't even tune to TLC or something where they show an actual operation take place, that gives me serious anxiety. I guess at least that shows I have a strong distinction of fantasy and reality.

Yeah I may graduate in less than 7 years but I think I'll end up going 6. It's hard to graduate in the stereotypical four years. I work almost full time, go to school, and wouldn't be caught dead in a college dorm room. And I won't be called a doctor either :P

Sometimes I hate TLC for that reason. Don't show me anyone's innards. Blech. It makes me queasy even if I'm flipping through channels.
