I realised another one I have- wherever possible, I have the subtitles on while I watch Tv or DVDs. It drives everybody else crazy!
I can hear and understand English fine, but I like the subtitles in case somebody noisy walks in the room while I'm watching, or the characters say something I don't understand (because then I can see how it's spelled, and Google it.)
omg, I've NEVER met anyone else who does that. I like it because sometimes I can't understand what is being said, like, words get all jumbled up or it's too quiet, but I always have subtitles on and it used to drive my dad NUTS when he would come into my room and watch X-Files with me lol
I think I may have posted here but eh, here it goes again.
- I HATE going out. I just...no. When I'm away, I always want to come home. I like going out once in a while (like tonight, my friend and I just drove around for a while) but I would much rather stay home most of the time.
- I don't think I own a pair of socks. Or a heavy winter coat for that matter - the thickest thing I have right now is a hoodie which I'm wearing.
- I've met Reba McEntire 6 times
Copying & pasting a few from my livejournal:
- When I was in 5th grade, my English teacher (we all had one main teacher, but for English we changed according to our, I guess, skill level. And I'm proud to say I made it into the highest class, lol) made us learn a few stanzas of Paul Revere's Ride. 1 for a C, 2 for a B, 3 for an A, 4 for extra credit. I learned three. Six years later, I can still recite it perfectly. It's odd, it's one of the only things that has stuck with me for a while.
- I'm really obsessive about my ears being clean. Every 2-3 days, I will fill them up with peroxide even though they're super clean because I use Q-Tips every night when I get out of the shower. It's weird because you can't really see or feel if your ears are all dirty and crap, so you shouldn't care much. But I do.
- I never delete phone numbers out of my phonebook. Ever.
- I hate being surprised. When I first start reading a book, I will usually read the last page first. I never really noticed I do it up until about a year ago.
- When I get into something (like a show) it basically takes up all my time and almost every spare moment. Right now, I just started watching Weeds a few days ago and I'm already on the second season. And I watched 9 full seasons of The X-Files in 7 weeks.
- I hate eating. Hate it. It's a waste of time and I hardly eat. I can go a day without eating easily and just eating once a day is normal for me.
- I am OCD about certain routines - like what I eat for breakfast before going to school. It has to be oatmeal. If not, I will freak out and it will ruin my entire day. I flipped out on my dad and made him go to the store to get some a few weeks ago when we didn't have any left.
