Day 6: Thirty facts about yourself
Ugh. Let's see if I have thirty interesting facts in me.
1. I'm the second of four children.
2. We had a pet German Shepherd when I was a kid.
3. We've also had "pet" toads and praying mantises.
4. I've been to Canada. Montreal, to be specific. The only thing I remember is the sheer number of strip clubs.
5. My birthday is June 20. Which makes me a Gemini.
6. The first movie I ever saw in the movie theaters was Jurassic Park. As I was a tiny child, this was not age appropriate, and my parents had to take my crying self out of the theater.
7. My favorite colors tend to vary at a whim, but I like greens, blues and pinks.
8. I fenced for...roughly a year? at the local YMCA back in high school. It was a lot of fun! I miss doing it, but don't have the energy or the money.
9. I own a flight jacket. IT IS SO COMFORTABLE.
10. I think MBTI is a waste of time.
11. My favorite book is Neuromancer by William Gibson, probably.
12. I was born in California.
13. My family moved across the country before I could form memories, and now I live on the East Coast.
14. My elementary school required that all students play an instrument for their last year. I chose the violin. And promptly disliked it.
15. The first game console we owned was the Playstation, and the first games we bought for it were I.Q.: Intelligent Qube and Casper.
16. The first good Playstation game that we bought was Final Fantasy VII.
17. Favorite tea: rooibos. SO DELICIOUS.
18. First tabletop rpg I ever played was 2nd edition Dungeons and Dragons. It was Night of the Vampire, a fancy premade adventure with a CD track. Let me tell you, that's a great way of getting a kid interested in rpgs.
19. I'm allergic to dust, cats and papayas.
20. I went to Burning Man once!
21. I'm not really into comic-books, but my favorite superhero is Spider-Man.
22. My most hipster shirt is probably the one with "Canadian Pain Network" written on it. What's the Canadian Pain Network? Who knows! (Google sure doesn't.)
23. I can make a cloverleaf tongue.
24. First fictional crush was James of Team Rocket.
25. I had braces when I was a kid. It was unpleasant. Technically I'm supposed to wear a retainer for the rest of my life, but fuck that!
26. I've always wanted to be tall, but sadly I'm just about the shortest in my immediate family at 5'6".
27. When I was a small child I was terrified by the yipyips on Sesame Street. They could teleport, you see, so what was stopping them from teleporting out of the television?
28. The first canon that I ever read fanfiction for was Final Fantasy VII, but the first canon that I genuinely got into fandom over was Persona 4.
29. I have a birthmark on my hip - a large, pale splotch that doesn't particularly look like anything.
30. My eye color can appear to change depending on the colors of the surrounding environment.
