    Ten random things about you.

    This is cheesy, and stolen from Vivien's Tea House forums, but hey, I'm bored.
    Everyone list 10 random facts or things about yourself. They can be anything, silly or serious. I'll start:

    1. I adore flowers and plants. I am constantly buying house plants or flowers for myself. One day I hope to get back into floral design, it will always be one of my favorite things to do.
    2. My favorite place to explore and hang out in are cemeteries. I love looking at old tombstones, checking out "haunted" places within them, and just taking photos. I feel at ease there, I love it.
    3. I am not vegetarian, but I loooove fake meat. I'd rather eat a Black Bean Burger from Chili's than a real burger from anywhere.
    4. I love owls. I decorate with owl themed things in my home.
    5. I am scared of E.T. due to a recurring nightmare.
    6. I love to read. I probably read at least a book a week.
    7. Only within the past few years I have become comfortable with who I am, and how I look. Now I know I'm awesome.
    8. I'm a Hanson fan.
    9. I do not want to have kids, and thus I have never really found out what exactly happens during birth. I vomited when I found out you give birth to the placenta. I always thought the umbilical cord rolled back up inside the woman like a slap bracelet.
    10. I collect post mortem photos.

    1. I have a real fear of heights but only when it involves standing out over things without railings.
    2. apparently the reason I got such a great deal on the house I own is that the previous owner died in it. I didn't find this out until somewhat recently and have lived there for 10 years
    3. I keep a list of people who's graves I will piss on and/or dance on.
    4. I can pick up anything technology related very very quickly and as a result get thrown at problems without any prior knowledge or skills with amazing frequency.
    5. I have a hard time reading actual books so tend to only read things on the internet or comic books
    6. I get an overwhelming sense of dread with I think about my own death
    7. When I was 3 I hit a kid in the head with a brick for tying up my sister cementing my awesomeness for ever.
    8. I really like shooting skeet and wish I lived somewhere I could do it more often and get a golden retriever to train as a hunting dog
    9. I'd like to move somewhere other than the DC area but can't because the job I have is really specialized.
    10. I completely lack any ability for anything creative. Can't write fiction, can't draw, can't paint, can't sculpt.

    I can't either. It ends up on my shirt or the side of my face.

    1. I worked in a fine china department in an upscale department store, and bought an Old Country Roses teacup as a joke... I now have an expansive chintzy teacup collection.

    2. I did a brief stint as a life model for a local art center when I was in college

    3. I can pin point to the decade almost any fashion that hit England from 17th century up (and can date a movie setting accordingly)

    5: I can speak/read/write a little Japanese, though the skill is fading

    6. I can look at a photo of an object and come up with a way to make said object without any tutorials etc.

    7. I'm a formally trained fine artist and studied in one of England's oldest art schools.

    8. I mostly dress in any decades style but none I was alive for

    9. I love scones but can't bake them

    10. I'm like the only person who's google searches never pull up Porn, but do find weird things like medical oddities, and collections 18th century dirty language on accident instead

    1. I really want to go to Japan
    2. I hate my job and know i can do much better
    3. I am thrifty and spend a lot of time bouncing money around, stoozing, using cashback websites and generally looking for that free lunch that people say their is no such thing as, i can take forever to buy things, people often hate shopping with me as at times i don't even buy things!
    4. I have never had a truffle and really really want to try them
    5. I am quiet, i suck at small talk, when i was at school i bearly spoke at all
    6. I dropped out of Uni because i convinced myself an art degree wouldn't help me get a job i would like
    7. I think donald trump is cool, especially his hair! But generally i am inspired by sucessful people with great determination.
    8. I once nearly burnt down a large woodland area with a molotov cocktail, my cousin and i put it out using only branches from a fern tree. It took about 4 or 5 hours!
    9. I'm like an elephant when it comes to peoples kindness, i never forget it.
    10. I am well aware of how frustrating i am to others when i am exacting, pedantic, fastidious and pay attention to the detail of the things people say but i find it a million times more frustrating that people spend so little time thinking about what they say before saying it.
    Others walk the bow, I walk the string

    it gives me a headache to think about how long it takes you to choose where and why and how you're making a purchase. :)

    1. I've dyed my hair almost every color. Here's a list: White, dark blonde, auburn, medium brown, dark brown, deep red, orange red, black, blue, purple, turquoise, green, red, pink, orange, yellow. My hair is naturally a light white blonde. I've also had my hair super long, kind of long, shoulder length, in a bob and now I have a mohawk. I'm not afraid of doing anything to my hair. I kind of want to shave it all off at some point.

    2. I want to start my own magazine that would help teenagers survive their teenage years and learn about a lot of things. I also want to start a program that teaches kids about bullying and specifically cyber bullying. I want to start my own photography business too. But my dream job is National Geographic photographer.

    3. If I could drop everything and move to Seattle I would in a second. I'd change my name and everything about me.

    4. I used to have flings with guys all the time until I was raped and it completely changed my life and view on certain things. It didn't happen too long ago and I was deeply depressed until a couple weeks ago when I found a site called GivesMeHope.com. I'm a completely different person because of a website.

    5. I have over 55 pairs of shoes. I have at least 22 pairs of Vans. The rest are heels, a few flats, slippers, a couple pairs of Converse and a pair of boots.

    6. I absolutely love to work out. I used to work out everyday. I'd go to the gym and work out on the machines for a couple hours and then swim and sit in the hot tub. It was amazing. But now I have no money for the membership and it's killin my mood.

    7. I want to travel the U.S. and visit a ton of haunted places with a few friends. I believe in ghosts and I watch ghost shows constantly. They fascinate me!

    8. I'm only 18 but people always assume I'm a lot older and that I am older than my sister who is 22. I really wish I was actually older. I'd like to skip these young years.

    9. I'm addicted to technology but half the time the people I meet on here are the only reason I make it through each day. I have a FaceBook, MySpace, Tumblr, Formspring.me, JPG Mag, Deviant Art, Flickr and forums. Tumblr has definitely been a life saver. Some of the people on there are nicer and better people than half of my friends. They're so understanding. I just wish they lived near me. Also, this forum has taught me so much.

    10. I collect a lot of things. I collect shoes, shirts, SYG product, magazines, books, dvds, and Snapple caps. I also collect random items that I can make art out of. My room is completely stuffed. I even have a traffic cone in my room. Ha.
    Constant Work In Progress.

    I'm jealous! I've never actually been to a haunted place. Most of my friends are pansies and there aren't any good haunted places in CO.
