Once again my sis has tagged me! How evil. Although she is quite right: I haven't updated in ages. So now I shall, with six more of my oddities. To my friends, I apologize for those of you who must put up with my strange habits.

The Rules

The 1st player of this "game" starts with the topic "6 weird habits/things/hates about yourself" and people who get tagged MUST write a journal about their 6 weird habits/things/hates as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their devpage comments and tell them to read yours...

1. Blankets: I am almost never content to sleep unless I'm securely wrapped head to foot in a blanket (even in summer -- thank God for AC). Even if I'm just hanging out with friends, if I have the opportunity to cloak myself in a blanket, I will. I nest.

2. My favorite sound is thunder. No other sound makes me quite as happy as this one does.

3. On a related note, I'm happier in inclement weather than I am in clear weather. If I wake up and see a clear sky outside, I'm usually quite disappointed.

4. I have a large birthmark on my lower right leg vaguely in the shape of my name. Most of the time I forget that it's there. I will, however, insist that the first part of it looks like Mare Nubium (The Sea of Clouds) and Mare Cognitum (The Known Sea) combined on the Moon (Numbers 11 & 13 on this map: [link] ). Don't even ask how I came to that realization. :}

5. I have always driven a manual (stick-shift) car. I COULD drive an automatic to save my life, but I might kill myself in the process.

6. I'm an English Major, but I hate writing papers. I don't mean that they are difficult for me, or that I don't know how to do them well. I just passionately hate them with every ounce of my being! Why? It's probably because I prefer creative and descriptive writing, in particular fantasy. There's not much room for fantasy in an academic paper (which I can respect, but have a hard time truly enjoying).

Anyway, that's all (until next time -- which I now feel there almost assuredly will be). Despite the rule that I must tag someone, I am going to refrain simply because I don't know enough people on dA. But should you see my list and wish to do one of your own, I'm not gonna stop you.

Hugs!
