Poor neglected requests.

Jenn and Manna asked me to post seven random things...a very long time ago.

1.  I didn't like hot tea until Justin made me drink it his sophomore year, before we were actually dating.  I drank it because I had a crush on him, and because he really did make good tea.  I should have known then that he was destined to be a Starbucks barista.

2.  I have a CD of Diablo II sitting on Justin's computer desk which is now half mine.  I told out said CD when I was putting in CDs of wedding pictures.  I played Diablo II in Farris Hall, and I enjoyed it.  But I'm scared to start playing it again because it becomes addictive, pointing and clicking.

3.  I often avoid the computer because I know I will waste far too much time when I'm on it.  Like I'm doing now, for instance.

4.  I told Justin I'd go to sleep in just a minute nearly an hour ago.  Evil mind-sucking computer.

5.  I have developed a hatred of exams in medical school.  It's a shame, because I used to actually enjoy them (I was an odd one).

6.  I miss watching Spike.  The Buffy character, not the TV station.  Though I do like the TV station.  I might watch Fool For Love tomorrow.  Today, Justin asked me where Buffy held a job.  I was slightly abashed when I said "the Double Meat Palace" without even blinking.

7.  I was wishing I had a correction white-out dispenser today, and I just now looked on the computer desk and realized one has been sitting there this entire time.

Jenn also asked me to post eight things you can't possibly know about me, or some such meme.  While I'm going, I'll go ahead.  If you've gotten this far, I give you permission to go do better things with your life, if you'd rather.

1.  I love notecards.  Flashcards have helped me learn a lot of information, until med school, when I ran out of time to make flashcards.  But I still use them furtively every now and then.

2.  I wish I had time for dance lessons.  I thought about taking them for this eight week period, but I guess it'd be kind of weird to only take them for eight weeks.  I've always wanted to dance, even though I feel self-conscious.

3. I'm a humanities person pretending to be a science person, as Justin loves to remind me.

4.  I used to draw manga characters, but I'm scared to try to draw again, because I'm afraid I've forgotten how.

5.  I have always felt older, pretending to be younger, ever since I was little.

6.  I like wearing my hair up, but I've never taken the time to learn how to do the cute up-dos.

7.  I like buying clothes and new clothing styles, but I'm too cheap to do it very often.  Usually someone has to talk me into buying something.

8.  When I get really tired, I end up staring, my mind completely blank.  It's kind of like stepping outside of myself, for a moment.  When I come back to myself, it's always disorienting -- like my perception is somewhat lessened.

Yay woot.  Finished the online surveys.  I'm scared to log on to the forum because I have too much to catch up on, especially on a late Friday night.  It's time for bed.

i totally understand 6 and 7. i think that even when i start making my own money, i will still have issues paying the full price for anything, because i'm so conditioned to years of clearance-rack shopping.

You don't have to pretend to be younger, dear. Believe it or not, people can admire you for your maturity over your cuteness. It is because you pretend to be younger that you are, as you say, "eternally cute." Just be what comes to mind.

I have 1, 7, and 8 (of the 2nd one) in common with you.  I hold a special place in my heart for flash cards...especially when trying to learn a foreign language!

I have a very hard time buying anything full price. And usually, I'll still leave it there and go home to wear the same old things.

I enjoy being cute more than I enjoy being intimidating. I don't like myself so serious.

I avoided foreign languages like the plague -- something that I'm sure will come back to haunt me during my family med rotation in Fayetteville in April...

Kerry... um, you know... we all know that you stare off into space.

It was an endless source of amusement for Wes and I freshmen year. Frantically waving our hands in front of your face. Then you'd get this look like "Who are these people and why the hell did the kidnap me and bring me to Village Inn at this time of night?"

Yay for updates! Yay for doing pointless quizzes on Xanga when you should be sleeping next to your hubby!
We got your thank you card today (guess it technically came yesterday, but it had to sit in our box as we went to visit family over the weekend). Thanks for the thank you.
Are you guys still up for watching Heroes together this fall? I'm not sure what your schedules are, but Monday nights are one of my "free" nights. Let me know before the 24th. Yay of Heroes!
