10 Random things about you

Original post by D&J

1) I'm a die hard JETS fan and get all decked out in my JETS gear from head to toe every Sunday (Jersey, hat, even green/white shoes), and when they score a TD I jump up and do the J-E-T-S chant.

2) I was in a bad car accident when a year 1/2 ago and I've only drive when I have to now (maybe 5x's since the accident), I'm petrified of other cars merging.

3) My favorite color is Pink.

4) I hate soda, I'll only drink fruit juice (any kind)

5) I'm 3 months pregnant and I cant wait to find out if it's a boy or a girl.

6) I secretly have pictures of my old boyfriends that I hide from my DH so I can show my children one day if they ask me about who I dated when I was younger, I even have old love notes.

7) I was a horrible student in HS and cursed out a teacher one day and got suspended from school. I also spent a semester in morning detention because I never did my History homework.

8) My brother and I were both adopted from Miami, FL - same hospital different mothers.

9) I love decorating my house for every holiday.

10) My mom put my dog to sleep with out telling me so I never got a chance to say good-bye to him


Ok, your turn!

Re: 10 Random things about you

1. I have a ton of gray hair, even though I don't get stressed about things all that easily. I guess it's genetic.

2. I can sleep anywhere...seriously...I fell asleep on a dorm room floor freshman year with a crowd of people talking around me....the cold linoleum floor....

3. I have an intense love/hate relstionship with my cat....i love him and he hates me. I have the scars to prove it.

4. I'm obsessed with Johnny Depp (seriously, I love him ). I have 4 tapes full of old 21 Jumpstreet episodes, 21 Jumpstreet playing cards, and I carry around an article he wrote for Rolling Stone in my wallet with my other various Johnny parephenallia

5. I'm a Middle School teacher, and there is a boy in my class who was so afraid of Middle School last year because he has some motor issues....and I just found out the other day that I am a major part of the reason that he's doing so well this year. He is an absloute sweetheart...and I saw him after school talking to some girls and laughing and joking with them, and it made me so happy I wanted to cry.
I love being a teacher

6. I have the same size hands as JOhnny Depp.

7. My baby brother is in Iraq and he emails me daily...which makes me so happy because I know that he's still alive. But it also pains me because he's in so much danger, and I hate having to be so happy just becuse I get an email from him.

8. I'm terrible at keeping in touch with people, but when I have free time, I like to write letters to my friends and decorate them with stickers.

9. My husband was my first real boyfriend ever. Before him, I dated 5 people....they all lasted, 3 days, 25 hours, 2 1/2 months, 1 month, 3 days .

10. One of my exboyfriends in college got mad at me for breaking up with him, and wrote a story about me for a creative writing class we had together. In the story, his character robbed my character, knocked me unconcious, and left me for dead in an alley way. He also described what my skin felt like in the story and called my 'pudgy but cute' . I spent the rest of the semester petrified of going out alone.
He was eventaully kicked off campus for sexually harassing one too many people

One last one...at school the other day - someone told me they thought I was an 8th grader!!!!! I'm going to be 29 in less than a month!!!

Now I'm curious as to what you THOUGHT I wrote!

Re: 10 Random things about you

This is the cutest thread!

1. I love starting collections, but never finishing or sticking with them. Ex: Cow figurines, beanie babies, dolphin stuff, Star wars stuff.

2. I used to dance competitively and teach dance classes and was super skinny, but I quit because the one of the teachers was mean to me and I regret it to this day (especially since I started getting fat afterwards!)

3. I absolutely love cooking and I'm glad that I decided to skip out on college and go to culinary school.

4. I absolutely love bowling even though I suck at it.

5. I absolutely LOVE animals and wish that I could have something really cool like a monkey.

6. I am REALLY corny and will crack up at the corniest jokes. My friends are constantly rolling their eyes at me.

7. I am terrified of ants...absolutely terrified. I have myrmecaphobia (sp?) and I freeze if I see either a carpenter ant or a large group of small ants. No other insect bothers me. I get teased for this fear a lot.

8. I used to be really good at basketball, especially at shooting free throws. I've won 5 free throw tournaments; 3 of them consecutively, but I lost in the Long Island finals. I had 20 out of 25 baskets and a girl beat me with 21 out of 25. I was mad that I couldn't go to the NY finals.

9. One of my dreams is to go swimming with the dolphins. I've always wanted to do this and hopefully I'll get to some day.

10. I almost went to school for marine biology, just so I could eventually become a trainer at Sea World until I realized just how difficult it was to get to that point.

A few more facts:
My favorite color's blue
My weakness is cold stone creamery
I absolutely love cheese
My FH is my favorite person
I gave blood today



ETA: I LOVE Survivor. I've watched every episode of every season and I hope to be on the show one day!

Re: 10 Random things about you
