five things

five things about myself that other people (maybe) don’t know, courtesy of Jen

1) In third or fourth grade I was accused of trying to burn down the school at recess. (I wasn't, for the record.)

2) Carpet makes my skin crawl. I'm not sure why, but I tend to find it disgusting, even if it's new.

3) I think that getting my ears pierced was one of the most painful things I've ever experienced. They hurt for 2 weeks. And the first time I took the studs out I almost passed out; my roommate had to put them back in for me.

4) I want to live somewhere isolated enough that I can walk outside naked and not worry about the neighbors seeing me.

5) I once read the Brothers Karamazov (all 800+ pages) simply because the guy I had a crush on was reading it & I wanted to be able to say, "Oh! You are? So am I!"
