I am scared of getting hair cuts.
When eating out I will never sit in a booth because it makes me feel claustrophobic.
I am so terrified of heights I cannot climb a ladder without getting dizzy.
When I was a little boy I had a terrible stuttering problem.
I tend to daydream a little too much.
I came close to failing Kindergarden.

04-01-2006, 06:04 PM
Ohh DAX, you reminded me of one.
I am terrified of animal heads on the wall. If I am in a restraunt and they seat us by an animal head I ask to sit somewhere else. I know that's a crappy thing to do to them but I just can't sit there, it freaks me out.

I'm a tomboy but I'm sure you've figured that out by now.

OMG! Me and my friend were having a discussion about this the other day... about how it came about that people put deer heads or fish corpses on their walls... about how inhumane it was and what people would think about human heads on their walls... it was a very deep discussion lol.

04-01-2006, 08:37 PM
I use to eat my boogers.
I dropped out of the eigth grade.
I was held back in Kindergarten.
I was put into an alternative school for troubled kids.
In the past, I was in trouble with the law.
I was born with heart problems.
I take 6, and occasionally 7 different medications daily.
I was once put in a mental hospital for a suicide attempt.
I'm a hypocrit, who wants to be a good Christian, but I'm far from it.
I have agoraphobia.
I tend to fall in love very easily.
Despite the many friends Iv'e made here, I can count the flesh and blood friends that I have on one hand.
Because of my agoraphobia, it took my two years before working up enough nerve to meet my brother's fiancee in person.
I have trouble knowing when people are being serious, or when they're being sarcastic.
And lastly, I'm a closet liberal, posing as a conservative. :lol: :joke:
That's all for now. I may share some more later.

-I am a worry wart (I worry about soooo many things that other people normally don't worry about).
-When I freak out about things, I tend to freak out in the inside and to myself.
-I have a fear of heights. I can't even climb a ladder or get too close to a ledge (even if it's in a building behind a glass), yet I have no problem flying thousands of miles up in the air in airplanes.
-I get various types of headaches often (sinus and migraine), yet I don't make an effort to get them checked out.
-I fear getting checkups at a doctor (I've NEVER had one either...)
-Despite my communicating online in various forums, I don't have as many online friends as a lot of people here seem to have.
-I have on-and-off fleeting feelings over a crush turned into a friend which makes it hard at times.
-I don't wear makeup and I don't have patience to style my hair. I tried it but looks terrible, so I get frustrated and give up easily.
-I love wearing skirts and dresses!! I just find it a pain to shave my legs every couple of days to prevent the stubble coming back up. :mad:
-I am VERY lazy in running errands or doing car maintenance (I know.... VERY bad).
-I used to wear glasses to correct my lazy eye, but then I found it difficult to see things far away. I, therefore, halted wearing them when I was 17.

Being home alone at night scares the **** out of me
I feel like I have to be someone I'm not just to make others happy
I have a crush on my best friend
I'm flunking like every subject in school
I taught myself to sing when I was 12

what is OCD?
swedeace
04-02-2006, 11:29 AM
More things I can remember:
-I have a hair-pulling issue. When I am bored or nervous, I tend search for split ends and cut those with my fingers, and I find a rough, tear-off spot near the roots of my scalp and pull it off. Yes, I have to be careful of not going bald. That happened on patch on my head when I was 11. :(
-I also can't sit still. I am quite neurotic, so I think that's where my problem stems from.
-I chew my tongue just like I chew gum. I do it subconsciously, so it's only later when I realize I was chewing.
-When I walk on sidewalks and any dividing lines, I "have to" count in even numbers to make a count of ten. Like, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and then repeat it.

-Sometimes I think I have an anxiety disorder.
-I do have an anxiety disorder. I made a list once of all my fears and it was 2 pages long. I also suffer from depression.
-I cry a lot. I cried Friday night as a matter of fact.
-I hate a lot of things about myself, from my body to my brain. Yet when I get around people I don't like, I become the most egotistical bitch in the world.
-I'm a sleep champ. :D I think some of it is the Paxil.
-I am the palest person I know.
-As am I. I think only albinos are paler that I am. And I don't tan at all. If it weren't for the disgusting amount of freckles I have, I'd have no color at all. I also have very thin skin; on a bad day, you can see most of my veins through my skin.
-I love the 70s. I wish I were there. I hate the 80s, probably because I lived thru it. Not exciting.
-I'm not using my college degree at all. In fact, I sometimes I wonder if it's a hinderance. I think employeers look at that and think I want too much money for the position I applied for, despite the fact that my major has nothing to do with the job.
-I won't eat out alone, except maybe at lunch,
-I still live with my parents and don't mind it one bit. And if you try to hand me any of that "You're a loser!! You'll get nowhere in life!!" crap, I'll go off on you. Different strokes, people.
-Cats scare me.
-I don't drink alcohol. I have (in rather tiny quantities), but I didn't like it. Nor do I see the appeal. I prefer to drink something cheaper and that won't make me puke.
-I'm a Nazi when it comes to smoking. I hate it lke Hitler hated the Jews (or something like that).
-I'm a goody-two-shoes. Like that wasn't obvious. :lol:
-Almost all my friends, I met online. And they're nicer than the ones I didn't.
-I'm a loner. I like spending time with people, but I often get annoyed if it's too long. It's not them, it's me.
-Sometimes I wish I could go back to my HS days, despite the fact that it wasn't all that great.
-I have a horrible habit of chewing the sides of my fingernails (the skin), my lips, and the inside of my mouth. The skin around my nails is all scarred over and has been for years.
-I'm loud online...totally opposite off. I prefer to blend in and be ignored.
-I feel that I'll never have any luck in life...because other people won't take me seriously.

I skipped the first grade, so I should have graduated from high school in 2004, instead of 2003.
I graduated from high school at 17 and was the 3rd youngest in my grade.
The next school year will mark my 20th academic (NOT calendar) year in school.
My family was on an episode of Trading Spaces: Family one and a half years ago. My stepsister was almost picked to be in the contestant row on The Price is Right recently. Somebody in her group made it, but not her.
My family and I are big on traveling. We travel a lot. I was recently to NYC, two family members recently traveled to London and one of my stepsibs is living in the Los Angeles area right now for school. Before the year is out, I will have trekked out to Minneapolis for the umpteenth time and Los Angeles for the first time.
I knit in my spare time. I haven't done much knitting recently, but I enjoy knitting. :)

I've only been kissed once in my life, 6 years ago when I was 13
I have two younger sisters that look nothing like me
I'm obsessed with John Ritter!

I hide in my room to get away from my annoying parents and sisters.
My Chihuahua Snuggles is my baby, the love of my life
Five things:
1)I've been thrown out of a restaurant for mild "antagonizing" of a US Senator that happened to be there at the time. It was a couple of years ago, I'm not especially proud of it, but it's definitely worth mentioning.
2)I did NOT vote for President in the 2004 US elections (did vote for the rest of the elections, but not President).
3)I like Survivor.
4)Was a straight A student until the 6th grade, but after midway that year made at least one C every semester until this past semester at WKU.
5)I'm actually....gasp....a morning person.

-As am I. I think only albinos are paler that I am. And I don't tan at all. If it weren't for the disgusting amount of freckles I have, I'd have no color at all. I also have very thin skin; on a bad day, you can see most of my veins through my skin.
that's definitely me as well :lol: last fall when i went to Disneyworld, i was out in the sun all day for a week and i didn't get even a slight tan or a sunburn. when i went back to school everyone said 'you're the only person i know who could go to Florida for a week and come back without even a small tan'. i seriously stay the same ghostly pale color all year :lol:
there isn't really anything that would surprise you guys about me, other than these:
-i have been close friends online with adults the same age as my parents (most of them i don't talk to now)
-i am the only kid in my homeroom class who doesn't have any interest in American Idol
-i sometimes go to NFL football games, my family has season tickets :D
-i sound a lot older on the phone than i really am. i could easily pass for a 16 or 17 year old if you heard me on the phone.
-often times i have a lot of hatred towards my closest friends :lol: especially one who isn't such a close friend anymore who got suspended for two weeks from school.

I've been a Washington Redskin fan since 1981.
My real name is Michael ( I prefer Mike, I hate Mikey, though)
I caught caught stealing out of a supermarket when I was a kid
I use to smoke weed
I fought a girl in high school(not proud of it, though)
Growing up, we were evicted out of our housing project.
When I was in middle school, people teased me by calling me "Garfield" because they thought I had big eyes like the orange cat. LOL That nickname stuck to me and I created my user ID with it here.

I have a deathly fear of bees

I love country music, and 80's pop music(that's all I listen too)

I already mentioned i was adopted. But I didn't mention that the way I was adopted was not the "usual" way. My birth mother offered her baby (me) to my family...they already had adopted a boy and a girl. They adopted them the way people normally adopt children, with legal paperwork, all that stuff. My mom wanted another baby sooo bad. When my birth mother had me, she called my soon-to-be family and let them know I was born. My mother cried and cried, she wanted to adopt me soooo bad. So my soon-to-be father went to the hospital and signed the birth certificate as the FATHER and when my birth mother and I were released from the hospital, she handed me over to my new family. No paperwork, no legal stuff, just a woman who wanted to make sure I had a beautiful life. I am amazed with all the adoptions that go wrong nowadays, surrogates, etc. that nothing bad happened with my situation.

The only song I know how to sign is Love In Any Language. Other than that song and the alphabet, that's all I know when it comes to sign language. I know my 6th grade teacher taught us some signs for words in addition to the alphabet, but I don't remember the signs for the words. I learned how to sign the one song when I was at camp years ago (June 1991). Interestingly enough, the following school year (1991-1992) 6th grade was the year I learned how to sign the alphabet. It's strange to think I knew how to sign an entire song before I knew how to sign the alphabet. :lol:

I am considered bilingual, even trilingual, when you consider the fact that spoken English is not my first language. I am fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) and Signed Exact English (SEE). I also know how to sign the alphabet in British Sign Language (BSL), because I wanted to be sure I knew how to say at least the alphabet in BSL before I traveled to London. For the record, they use two hands to sign the alphabet in Great Britain, whereas here in the States, we use one hand.

Oh, yeah, I forgot for a brief moment that you sign. Yes, you are considered multi-lingual. Sign languages are considered languages. That's cool! What is Signed Exact English? How different is it than ASL? I am guessing it is like the common of all English dialects or something?
I work in a computer lab facility at my college, so I have seen some deaf students every now and then taking classes. They have a "reader/writer" who translates while those computer instructors lecture demos to the students. I have wanted to eventually learn ASL because of my love of languages, and I think it would be cool to be able to sign with hands/motions. I just can't find a good online resource website. The books are too expensive, but anyway...I will eventually learn somehow.
I always wanted to ask you questions about ASL and about the deaf community, but I am a naturally curious person tend to ask overly nosy questions just to know. I know some people do get insulted, so I refrained from asking you stuff. :o
