1. I'm scared of earwigs
2. I have a lightning-bolt shaped scar on my wrist. It's little, and I have no idea how I got it as I always remember having it.
3. I used to think about how people would identify me if I was on a Missing Kids poster when I was a child - I decided that 5, out of my many, many freckles, would be the identifiers because they lined up in a nice row.
4. I'm somewhat hypermobile
5. I have a lot of nightmares - horror films don't come near my own creativity
6. I was pretty sure I saw the tooth fairy when I was a kid (it was a sunspot!)
7. I enjoy taking pictures of mushrooms. Not sure why.
8. I consider some books to be amongst my greatest friends
9. I hate celery.
10. I cannot hum because it tickles my lips way too much.
11. The roof of my mouth is also ticklish.
12. Animals always tend to like me even when they don't really like anyone.
13. I collect antique cameras
14. I'm currently practicing making an old lady voice for a play - this terrifies me
15. I hate shaving my legs
16. I have to count to 9 and crack eggs on 10.
17. I count stairs - but if I miscount I'm ok.
18. I've found 22 4-leaf clovers
19. And I've found 3 5-leaf clovers
20. I also found a horseshoe.
21. When I've applied for jobs, I've always ended up getting the one that I wanted the most, without hearing back about any of the others.
22. People compliment weird parts of my body - like my eyebrows, jawline, and cheekbones.
23. I love Hallowe'en, but hate dressing up and am not too fond of candy.
24. I still enjoy watching childhood cartoons
25. I haven't been "home" for Christmas in 8 years. I'm 30.
26. I love travelling.
27. I have an odd fascination with caves and absolutely love going in to them.
28. My major in university was ultimately decided by a coin-flip.
29. I'm a magnet for really creepy people.
30. The only class I ever failed was because I had just been broken up with minutes before the final exam - all I had to do was pass the exam to pass the course, but I failed as I cried the whole time.
31. I dream about my childhood cat and wake up crying.
32. I made myself a suicide-plan so elaborate that it would take months and a LOT of effort to go through with it. Go prevention!
33. I love sushi
34. I collect rocks
35. I have a tattoo from my favourite video game
36. When I panic, I take off.
37. If I could change my entire life and personality, I alternate being wishing I was someone who could perform in musicals, ballet, or being a professional photographer for National Geographic.
38. I frequently forget what I'm saying half way through a sentence because my brain is miles ahead of my mouth (which I consciously slow down)
39. I really love red pandas.
40. I surprised myself by enjoying haggis.
41. I'm not very tall but due to that, I don't pay attention to "low" warning signs and have smacked my forehead plenty of times.
42. I spent my 30th birthday in a dark cave.
43. I learned that vinegar takes the heat and swelling out of sunburn after burning my shoulders so bad as a kid that I couldn't move my arms more than about an inch.
44. I am an atheist.
45. I can MC a school-wide (I'm a teacher) talent show, but having people sing me happy birthday horrifies me.
46. One of my biggest accomplishments was being able to go and get a pedicure for myself. I nearly cried due to stress the entire time, but I made it.
47. I love being near the water - just to see and hear it makes me happy.
48. I often read a book from start to finish with only basic needs in between.
49. I am more likely to cry while watching cartoons than sad movies, because I'm not expecting the cartoon to make me cry.
50. When helping people prepare meals, I always somehow get assigned grating cheese. I've never yet cut myself, and I enjoy it - why does everyone else hate grating cheese?
