Dislikes: School(!), stomach aches, head aches, doctors offices, hospitals, food (evil!), wheat (even eviller), nuts, sore feet, blisters, pain, annoying people, mean people, people who act like they know everything even when it's obvious that they don't, evil computers, and idiots.
Random Info...
Hobbies: ballet, ice dancing, skate guarding, watching movies in French, watercolor painting, drawing, computer graphics and web designing, knitting, getting everything done fast so I can do fun stuff (ie: the opposite of procrastinating), coming up with randomly weird ideas, thinking outside of the box.
Specialties: Being a Ruthless Superbrain and the Goddess of HTML. And being completley random and insaneful, and as original as it is possible to be.
Words I use too much: Spiffy, spiffin, random, randomness, weird, wired, voodoo snowball, bouncing marshmallows, evil, evilness, bonjour, ugh, um, ouch, gah!, etc, Quebec.
My life
College? Yup. Whether I want it or not. I'm headed to Witt.
When I grow up? That is so cliche. But..um. I have absolutley no idea. Marine Biology? Or Foreign Language so I can be a diplomat? Or??? No clue.
Dreams: of sailing on a tall ship around the world "but what a ship really is, is FREEDOM". And of sky diving. And parasailing. And SCUBA diving. And to travel to all of the national parks. And around the world visiting places like France, Spain, Austria, India, China, Japan, Brazil, Puerto Rico, and Martinique. not to mention QUEBEC! And to live life trying new things, to live by the moment and not waste it.
Obsessions: Tall ships. The sea. QUEBEC (like you didn't know that one). French. Languages and Culture. Nature. Art. Whales. REAL frogs (as opposed to fake plushies or cartoons). Ballet.
Why do I bother? Who knows.
Life philosophies: "In twenty years you will be more disappointed by the things you haven't done than by the things you have." (I forget who?) and "Make sure you put your feet in the right place and then stand firm." (Abe Lincoln)
My Heroes: Cliche AGAIN. Gah. Joan of Arc. Eowyn. Keladry of Mindelan. Anyone who has stood up for what they believe in despite opposition, I guess. Anyone who's risked their life for another.
Politics: Find them interesting to study, but hate them IRL. Don't even GO there, BOTH sides need help. Seriously. Everything is better in moderation! :D
