I was tagged by my sweet little @black--kuro! Give it your everything on those blasted exams, my dear!!
(Oh, and because I’m such an unoriginal person, I can’t come up with new ideas right now, so I’ll just follow the same themes @black--kuro talked about in her post.)
1- I used to bite my nails a lot. Then, when I started college, I went through great lengths to stop that nasty habit. And I did! I don’t bite my nails at all now. But. I bite the dry skin around my nails and often end up with disgusting and frightening bloody fingers because of that… which is probably much nastier... (-_-‘)
2- I have a younger brother. But everyone always thinks he’s the older one of us. (And usually by a shit ton of years as well).
3- I love blue and my wardrobe is basically constituted of blue, grey and black clothes.
4- I’m Portuguese and look very Caucasian, but I actually have distant African ancestry, of which I’m very proud of. (One of my great grandmothers had deeply curly hair, beautiful full lips and nose and bright big blue eyes. She also had a very beautiful African name, which I would love to give to a daughter of mine if I ever have one.)
5- I am mostly vegetarian. I still eat a lot of fish and I sometimes eat meat (chicken or turkey), so I can’t say I’m fully vegetarian, but most of the meals I have at home don’t include any animal-derived protein, except for egg and dairy.
6- I’ll be choosing the medical specialty that I’ll practice for the rest of my professional life next week, and I’m slowly dying inside from the stress of this important choice, even though I actually took next week off from work and should be enjoying my holidays... (-_-‘)
7- The first - and only other - time I cut my hair this short, I was maybe 7yo and I went to a restaurant with my parents and, even though I was wearing a dress and had flower pins in my curls, the lady who took our things to the table kept referring to me as a “boy”, even after being corrected. Apparently, that was her very impolite way of showing her disapproval of my parents’ letting me cut my hair that short. But, at the time, I was too young to understand this level of rudeness and was very sad and cried and regretted and was ashamed of my choice. Stupid mean lady.
8- I was part of an aerobical dance group in 5th and 6th grade. And I was actually pretty good at it.
9- I hate it when people who I barely know touch me without warning or permission, especially my hair. I’m more than okay if my family or my closest friends touch or hug me spontaneously, but if a colleague like… suddenly grabs my arm or hand, or pats my back or something, the only thing I want to do is immediately break contact and possibly scream and run away from them. But I have to control myself and stay put or they’ll brand me as impolite. It’s a problem, sometimes.
10- I have an illogical fear of being buried alive. I had repetitive nightmares about that for years.
Woah, I wrote a lot! Sorry about that!
