Something you didn't know about me.....

[Don Penguinoini]

I still go to school

I hate it

But i hate the morning more

Im a pretty boring person/unevenful life.

Maybe thats because its still only 13 years long.

I have a phobia of the Sea/Rivers. I normally say water, but its not the water itself, its whats in it so I am fine in swimming pools though wont swim in them at night!

I didn't drive for 22 years after getting my driver's license because I was afraid to. This was a closely guarded secret. I would do anything to keep people from finding out, kind of like someone who is illiterate goes to great lengths not to let this be known.

I'm not bothered by reptiles, but the tiniest spider imaginable scares me absolutely to death. I'm actually afraid of most insects, expecially flying ones. This fear even extends to some extent to butterflies.

I'm afraid of garbage trucks. When I was a little girl, the man who drove the garbage truck once threatened to pick me up and throw me in the back of his truck and grind me up with the garbage. I've never quite gotten over it.

Two things I've always wanted to do, but probably never will are (1) skydiving and (2) volunteering with the Peace Corps.

Me too! I wouldn't say I'm afraid of rivers, but I am afraid of the ocean and of any body of very deep water. I'm also okay in swimming pools -- but not at night. Funny, huh?

I just read World Without End in about three days - while working full time. Sometimes, if I'm into a good book, I don't get out of bed all day. On the same subject, reading turns me on, regardless of the subject matter.

For me, I think its from my over-active imagination as a child of a shark bursting through the bars of the wave machine which scared me and at night there are lots of shadows which give me heart attacks!

I took flying lessons when I was fifteen.

I am developing a somewhat irrational fear of lightening (although I absolutely love lightening storms when I am safely inside).

I never want to drive anything else. They need to hurry up and make a hybrid minivan, or I'm going to have to switch to a car or an (*shudders*) SUV in a few years, and I really, really don't want to! I love my minivan. I've lived in my minivan - comfortably, I might add.
