[Sanne]

1. I've have my weird issue with wanting to get pregnant finally tamed by using my mac addiction as distraction. serious: when I buy less MAC I start to worry again...

2. I'm a doctorsassistent in a hospital, I sometimes think doctors are friggin dumbasses: they know their medical stuff amazingly, but some doctors have no social skills, or no idea how to organize...

3. sometimes I go to the restroom just to pick my nose.

4. I burp harder than my bf! whoahhh

5. I'm so blessed with my boyfriend, I still wonder every now and then what amazing thing I did to deserve him.

6. when I go shopping, I allways visit burgerking to order a KINGSIZE cocacola light, and carry it with me in and out stores all afternoon, and I allways finish it!!!

7. I love eating a can of pineapple next to my regular lunch, and I wish for people to stop discussing that can every time again, yeah I know now that you find it weird!!!

8. I'm a bitch for letting my boyfriend do the dishes, I kinda refuse to do it myself.

9. I'm so lazy, it hurts!!

10. I did henna for 4 turkish weddings on the brides henna-night,and I'm super proud of it!

11. I like my MIL more than my own mum, because I can have a 'smart' talk with her, and I feel loved and a full person with her. I feel really guilty about not liking my mum that much, but my mum is such a dramaqueen sometimes, and doesn't know that she judge me all time.
I also don't like my mum for defending herself when our talks go about stuff she did, instead of talking and listening to me. I wished she'd just tell me that she loves me and that sh'e proud of me.

12. I would love to have a shoe addiction but my feet are to big, I rarely fit the biggest sizes of the regular collections

13. I want to learn how to dance and do backflips!

14. I think I can sing a lot better than britney. In fact, I think I would easily go the next round when I go to the audition of the dutch version of american idols.

15. If I could get one cosmetic surgery for free, I'd go for a liposuction of my belly and inner thighs...

16. ...but something else I want is to get my teeth bleeched soon because that's something I can afford.

17. I have smoked lot of pot when I was youngher, and I still do it every now and then. I think alcohol is much more dangerous than pot, because alcohol is addictive and legally available everywhere, and mariuana is not. I've stopped drinking alcohol when I was working at a supermarketcounter and saw all those homeless men and women with their cheap beer.

18. I had a penis-phobia, but I'm over it... still penisses aren't yet on my favorite bodyparts list.

19. I'm doing weightwatchers, and I've lost 8.0kg and a bit.

20. I'm gonna do a make-up course, and try to become a MAC MUA!

He's not a typical ROCK STAR in my opinion, he's really laid back not too much of a party animal from what I saw back stage, and he's not snooty or like " Hey do you know who I am", he's actually a sweet guy.

[janelle811]

Here's my list! I started to think of more things as I went on, so that is why there are 23 items

1. I'm the youngest of 3 sisters.
2. I don't act conceited or anything, but I really love myself

3. I have an obsession with Bruce Springsteen.
4. I have a fear of pee wee herman, he really scares me!
5. I'm a very picky eater.
6. I've taken dance classes my whole life (ballet, jazz, tap, etc.), but I hate to just dance normally in front of people.
7. I used to cry on the way home from vacations, I love to travel/go places.
8. I get really cold easily so I hate having air blasting on me, unless if it's 90 degrees out or something.
9. I've never been out of the U.S.
10. I love to read, I'll read anything if I have nothing to read.
11. I think the Disney channel shows/movies are incredibly cute.
12. I think that cats and weasels are very funny.
13. If somebody makes me laugh, I probably love them.
14. I love cheese/milk products, but I'm lactose intolerant.
15. I also love popcorn, and I used to eat a whole microwave bag everytime I stayed up at my grandma's.
16. I think the Price is Right is fun, I wish I was on there.
17. I love when people (guys actually) sing. As long as I like them, and it's not just annoying, that is.
18. My dog loves when I hold her like a baby.
19. I love to fold clothes and organize my department @ work.
20. Deep down, I really like to be neat and organized, but I get to lazy/distracted, so you probably would not be able to tell.
21. I have lived in the same area my whole life, but everybody (even random people) tell me that I have an accent. I have no clue where it came from, but I have been told it is Texan, Southern, English, and many other things.
22. I really like to watch sports, but I get obsessed with not only the players, but the coaches too. I have actually cheered at a baseball game everytime our third base coach was annouced, I loved him!
23. I really enjoy board games and things like that, I would have no problem playing monopoly for hours.

 

[Alexa]

1. I'm left handed

2. My mom had [SIZE=-1]Gestational Diabetes when she was pregnant with me, along with a lot of other complications. All of the doctors thought I'd be born premature and with permanent mental problems. I was born AFTER my due date and perfectly healthy

3. My dad passed away last December, 2 days after his birthday, from liver cancer. I still beat myself up over the fact I was supposed to visit him at the hospital that day and I didn't.

4. When I was around 10, I was outside on July 4th, playing with sparklers and I dropped one that just went out on the ground. I had my shoes off and was walking over to our deck when I stepped right on the metal part! OUUUUUCH. I still have the scar on the bottom of my foot

5. My sister is 16 years older than me and my brother is 19 years older.

6. My sister and my mom are my best friends.

7. I'll be 18 next March and I still haven't taken driver's ed. Everytime someone asks if I'm driving yet and I tell them, they act like I'm some freak for not driving yet

8. I've never been on a plane. But that will all change come July 11th!!

9. I'm hopelessly addicted to the TV show "ER". Though I haven't seen much of the past 3 seasons..the oldies are the ones I love.

10. I've only been to my fathers grave once since he passed, and I feel horrible but I can't work up the nerve to go.

11. I won't be able to graduate high school. I have severe anxiety connected with school (I was bullied non-stop since kindergarten). I tried home schooling but it wasn't right for me. I'll be getting my GED next summer, though!

12. I'm obsessed with Reese Witherspoon's movies. I pretty much know all the lines for 'Sweet Home Alabama' 'Legally Blonde'..etc.

13. I played basketball during junior high..our team came in 2nd three years in a row. I've also broken the same finger 3 times because of it.

14. My dream is to be a nurse in the ER.

15. Since 2005, 4 people I've known have died. First, my brother's neighbor, 2nd the little old lady that's lived across the street from me my entire life. She was how I wanted my grandma to be, my dad, and last, my next door neighbor, Bill. He was like an uncle to me, I'd known him my whole life. Him and my dad were best friends..he died a month or two after my dad.

16. I've never been kissed.

17. I have a 10 year old niece and an 8 year old nephew, both my sister's kids.

18. I nearly flunked out of 8th grade because of how much school I was missing. I would get so sick to my stomach thinking about it that I would just lock myself in my bathroom and refuse to leave. I was on the verge of giving myself an ulcer, as I later found out.

19. Although I listen to a lot of pop music, I have a secret love for very gothic rock type music <33

20. I take a bath nearly every night, and read for around two hours. It's the only time I can totally forget about everything and just drown myself in my books.
