Okay, my turn!
1. I'm going to be a police officer by next year, once I graduate with my Criminal Justice degree.
2. I've both flunked out and dropped out of college already, and it's only been 3 years. The first time, I was working on a BA in French, and I partied too hard and got booted out. The second time, I was one semester away from an Associate's in Nursing, but I hated it more than anything, so one day I got up, walked out, and never came back to that program. I love what I'm doing now, though.
3. For the record, I'm a really good student when I try. I have a 3.8 GPA right now!
4. I'm a meter maid, and I love it!
5. I've worked at the Renaissance Faire for the past 8 years. I manage my shop now. It's a hoot!
6. Speaking of Renfaires...last spring, I moved from WI to TX to do a faire. I lived on the actual faire site, above my booth...without running water or really secure electricity, and next to the elephant pen. It was an incredible experience, but I'm glad to be home.
7. I plan on moving to New Orleans. I went on vacation there 4 years ago, and the city is in my blood now. I will be there as soon as I graduate.
8. I'm a vegetarian and a member of PETA. However, PETA does some things that I do not support (serving kids beer instead of milk? Remember that? Not cool.). I've been veggie for 11 years now. My mom is also a vegetarian.
9. I adore my boyfriend, Mike. We've been together for nearly 3 years now, and he is just amazing
He just quit smoking, so yay for him!
10. I'm a language nerd. I speak (not fluently, but enough to survive should I wake up one morning in country that would require it)...french, italian, german...a wee bit of spanish and japanese. Latin, but that's not really useful these days. I'm currently teaching myself Arabic, so that I can apply to the FBI or CIA one day, and have a leg up on the other applicants.
11. I am addicted to the TV show 24. I find myself thinking about how 'dreamy' Kiefer Sutherland is. I cannot explain this.
12. Over the course of the last 4 years, I've had over 25 different piercings. I currently only wear jewelry in 5 (my labret, conch, and 3 navel rings.) I used to have my earlobes stretched to nearly an inch, but I'm letting them close in favor of my future job as a cop.
They're at about 10 gauge right now.
13. I have 3 tattoos.
14. I create and sell synthetic dreadlocks at my website, medusalox.com.
15. I'm a natural redhead, and I will never ever dye my hair again. I dyed it black a while back, not a good idea!
16. For whatever reason, I have the hots for Pinhead from Hellraiser. Not the actor, but the actual character.
17. When I was a little girl, I was afraid of dandelions. Those are fine for me now, but now I feel panic whenever I see a sunflower. I'm strange, I know.
18. I go ghost hunting with my mom on a regular basis. I'm a big skeptic, but it's fun.
19. I'm really antisocial. I don't like too many people, and I have a low tolerance for a lot of things that people do. I'm not mean about it (often), but I just prefer the company of my family, my boyfriend, or my 2 good friends..or myself. I don't go out very often, and I'm ok with that.
20. Musically, I'm into industrial and metal. My favorite bands include Tool, A Perfect Circle, Nine Inch Nails, KMFDM, Skinny Puppy, Gravity Kills....but I also love me some Christina Aguilera!
