Blog

So I was reading my sister's blog and she was blog tagged. I finish the article and find my name. Winona has tagged me.

"Once you have been tagged, you have to write a blog entry with 5 facts about yourself that readers probably don't know about. Then choose 5 people you want to tag and list their names. Then leave a comment on their blog letting them know they’ve been tagged."

1. The letter A key on my keyboard always builds up a patch of crud within one or two days. I scratch it off but it comes back in days. This probably happens because I play hours of WarCraft and the most common command to use is attack, 'A'. Speaking of WarCraft, there have been times when I've played the game 16 hours straight. Recently, I spent my entire Saturday on the game. I have been playing this game for 3 years and still enjoy it.

2. My favourite Breyers ice cream flavour is Cookies and Cream however at Baskin Robins it's Pistachio Almond.

3. I'm a tiny guy compared to most of the world but my hands and feet are what I consider most tiny. When I go shopping for shoes, I can never find my size. The smallest mens' most stores I've seen carry is a size 7 and I'm a size 6. I have to find a design that also comes in women's and take a women's size 8.

4. All too often, I've been commented on with the remarks, 'you're so quiet'. For one, I've been quiet most of my life. When it comes to conversations, adding to one, takes me longer than most people. Sometimes a conversation will echo in my head hours after the incident and I come up with a good response. The other thing is that when I hear a statement, it doesn't always come naturally for me to reply. Being questioned however, prompts me to say something. In a typing conversation, I feel that I talk more. This might be because that the conversation is actually happening slower and I get some time to make sense of what I want to say.

5. Stress can make me schizophrenic. At age 17, grade 11, my first pet died and it triggered a psychotic break. The TV and radio was always talking about me and it felt like everywhere I went, I was being watched. I also discovered hidden meanings in the text I read and movies that I watched which would eventually lead me somewhere... like the US army. Schizophrenia can be an annoying and terrifying experience but it's also unique and sometimes interesting.

You're it! No touch-backs!
