Got tagged on this one by at least two different people. I think I've done it before, but meh, I'll do it again! Figure it's a way to relax a little bit--I'm okay now, guys. *plots to kidnap [livejournal.com profile] ashleymouse to help review Italian words*

Once tagged by this entry, the assignment is to write a blog entry of some kind with six random facts about yourself. Then, pick six of your friends and tag them; no tag backs. This explanation should be included.

1. I'm afraid of the dark. Absolutely terrified. It's so weird--I just need a tiny bit of light to be okay. In my dorm room, if I can see the digital clock on my microwave? I'm great! But the light can't be red. That's why there's a stuffed animal sitting on my phone--it covers up the red blinky light from my answering machine >.>

2. I'm a sap when it comes to movies and TV. A big sap. I cry every single week, when I watch Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Did you guys see this past week--that kid handed over the thirteen dollars he had in his piggy bank to give to the family because he wanted to help, but he was too young to help build the house? Pretty sure I was bawling.

3. I'm an anime fanatic, and it's totally Rachie's fault. She introduced me to Furuba.

4. I talk to myself. Constantly. It's how I think.

5. When I go to our local Taco John's, I can actually come in and if it's one of these two people at the register, I can just say "The usual." They know my order--I'm that much of a regular there. My order, BTW, is a number three with chicken, medium-sized, with extra seasoning on the potato oles, a Mountain Dew, a side of sour cream and a side of nacho cheese. Can I also get a fork and a couple packets of mild sauce, please? Thank you ^_^

6. I recently started having panic attacks. The trigger for them? Curves on the highway. I think it has something to do with the time I went in the ditch this past January *curses icy roads* I will slow down to 30 MPH as I come to a curve, and I get really shaky.



And this one I swiped (lovingly) from [livejournal.com profile] lucindathemaid:

Summarize 10 of your fandoms in one sentence, then see who on your friends list can guess each fandom.

1. Giant "robots," magical powers, and a bouncing marshmallow with big ears--and the nerd gets the guy first.Magic Knight Rayearth

2. Bishies galore! Even that very effeminate one making instant coffee over there! Ouran High School Host Club

3. Rule #1: Do NOT heckle the short guy. Fullmetal Alchemist

4. The perfect man is handsome, loyal, adorable, funny, intelligent, good at cooking and housework, and can turn himself into a giant snake at will. What's not to love? Matantei Loki Ragnarok

5. The main character has a teeny tiny problem that gives new meaning to the term "obedience training." The other leading male character...he just sucks. Literally. Inuyasha

6. She's a princess with a "wicked" stepfamily. Her Prince doesn't have a clue, no matter how many times he's inside her. Pretear

7. Our hero is smart, fearless, and probably the world's leading expert on kneecaps. God knows he sees enough of them. Detective Conan

8. Talk to the hand. Just don't be alarmed if the hand talks back--she's very territorial, ya know. Midori Days

9. A book brings our heroine to another world to save that world. But don't bother her, she's eating and lusting after an "ogre." Fushigi Yuugi

10. The main character's best friend is a Mary Sue...and it's actually canon. Cue the crazy costumes and pieces of magical cardboard gone wild! Cardcaptor Sakura

All right 'cept #5!

I read in Reader's Digest that a HUGE percentage of Americans talk to themselves regularly. So it's not that uncommon. Yet we don't do it in public... *laugh*

I don't like road curves either, especially if another car is coming around it. XD; I always tense and hope it won't crash into us.

And hooray for talking to oneself! Actually, I'll talk to just about anything if I'm alone and bored: plushies, furniture, the computer.... XD

The dark isn't my favorite thing, especially if I'm alone in it. ^^;

I went in the ditch in January, when I hit an icy patch on a curve and skidded off the road...into a snow-bank that was lovely enough to cushion the blow. So that's probably the big source of it for me.

*waves hand in the air* You can talk to me! I'm friendly. And talky! =D

*hates the dark hate hate hate*

Ahh. Thank goodness for the snowbank! ^^

My uneasiness probably stems from the car accident we were in a couple of years ago, even though we were forced into a position where we ended up banging into a car from behind, rather than something coming from the side.

Yay for being friendly and talky! XD

hey....

Your sorta-one-sentence summaries pwn the Internet. You need to write blurbs for the movies! (Love the Midori Days one.) I might just swipe this meme! XD

...yeah, so I sort of forgot about making it only one sentence. Ehehe...whoops... ^^;; But I did have fun with it--glad you liked them!

Which movies should I write blurbs for? *laugh* That'd be kinda fun =D
