A "25 random things" meme
Ok, so I don't feel like doing a real post, but I wanted to see if I could come up with 25 random things that might be interesting or something... Not tagging anybody though, I prefer to think of meme's as a fun thing rather than a chore : P
Rules: Once you've been tagged, write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
1. I still don't have my driver's license.
2. And yet I only care about not having a license when I have to go to a really inconvenient area (like the South Bay) or when I really want to go to Fry's or Costo.
3. I'm like a kid in a candy shop when I go to Fry's~ No idea if this would be the same at Best Buy since I've barely been in one.
4. My goal for '09 is to get out of all Credit Card debt, I have to push this goal back twice... I made it in '08 to get out of debt by May '09 then pushed it to Sept '09 in Dec '08 and have now allowed myself that as long as it happens by the of the year I'm good -_-
5. I used to be a major nail biter but I find that painting my nails or getting a manicure (even if I don't have them put paint on my nails) breaks me from the habit.
6. I have now been able to grow out my nails since November '08 - although due to the nail biting my nails are still very frail and can't be long for too long.
7. I like traveling and I don't mind planes, but I hate airports and getting to/from the airport (somebody make transporters already!)
8. I still fantasize about having wings, even though I know it's not possible - but hey, if transporters are a possible dream why can't I tack on wings? ^_~
9. I tend to get very stressed when I've been responsible for something for a while and come close to what most people would call 'burning out.'
10. I'm at the 'burning out' point with being the Secretary of my Toastmaster's club right now.
11. I wish I was more social.
12. I relish weekends when I have no plans (get-togethers, club activities, karaoke, nothing).
13. No matter how much sleep I get the night before I hate waking up for work in the morning (regardless of the work) - felt the same way about school.
14. I used to be a morning shower person but now I'm a night shower person, it helps me sleep ^.^ (Makes me wonder how I stayed awake with morning showers before *_*).
15. I love a lot of different types of pets (dogs, ferrets, deer, squirrels, guinea pigs) but sometimes I really think about having a pet and know I would have trouble taking care of it ;_;
16. I hate doing laundry, at least once a year I think about hiring someone to do my laundry for me or sending it out.
17. I get obsessed and un-obsessed over some things really easily (the latest tech, a new TV show, a book I'm reading).
18. I am loving J.D. Robb books right now but back in November it was Dean Koontz and back in '06 it was Sidney Sheldon.
19. Even though I like J.D. Robb books I don't read very many Nora Roberts (J.D. Robb is a pen-name of Nora Roberts) books.
20. When I was a kid (4th grade'ish) I went from reading Babysitter's Club books to reading Catherine Coulter, Nora Robers, etc romances.
21. Because I read so many romances I feel kind of burned out about them - occasionally I will pick one up or pick up a new author that has switched to a more mainstream genre (like Sandra Brown or J.D. Robb books).
22. I wanted to be a librarian for most of high school but put it aside after taking my first college English course and hating it.
23. I disliked all of my literature and history courses (Japanese and English) in college.
24. I still think about working at a library sometimes and have considered getting an MLIS more than once.
25. I've also considered going back to grad school and getting an MA in Japanese (for Business, not Teaching).
Well, once I started typing that was a lot easier than expected. ^_^ Probably could have taken it to 50 by the end but I won't put that on anybody or on myself if I should ever decide to go back and read this entry~
