25 Things About Me

"Rules: Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you and post it. At the end, choose 5 people to be tagged. If I tagged you, it’s because I want to know more about you."

I'm self-tagging! And I'm going to be like FB and cut this list down to 10 things... just because. ;)

  1. I loved comic books, comic cards, and video games as a kid. None of my friends shared the passion (they were all typical girls. boo to them!). My comic book collection I sold while I was in college.
  2. I still love video games, but I never play them alone anymore.
  3. I graduated college early.
  4. I have never dated an American (though I am one).
  5. My mom is European, and she rued the day she married my (American) dad, so maybe that's the reason for #4. (Nah, Kristy's right - it's the accents ;))
  6. I love foie gras, and don't feel guilty at all about it. Even though I also love animals. I have a disconnect in my brain about it.
  7. I never get coffee at coffee houses. Only chai lattes, hot chocolate, or milk teas.
  8. I enjoy taking pictures.
  9. I'm going to be a lawyer in a little over a year (well, hopefully) and it kind of freaks me out.
  10. I think unagi (freshwater eel) tastes like french toast. yum!

LOL...you know, I sort of picture your eel tasting like french toast as the conversation my mother had with me when she tried to get me to eat frog's legs, "Kristy, it tastes like chicken. Just try it." No, thanks!

Congrats on being a lawyer soon! Don't be nervous, I'm sure you're going to do great!

I haven't dated any American's either, even though I am. But both of mine are American. I think I just have a thing for foreign accents.

Love your blog, by the way!

Kristy - I mentioned the french toast resemblance to a friend once and she said "you're just saying that to get me to eat it!" And it worked, but she promptly spit it out into a napkin (she couldn't stand the texture). lol! But really, I think it does! And I love the stuff. :)

Yeah, I dig the accents too! +10 sexiness! ;)

Thanks for your comments! :)

Interesting about your love of comic books. I told someone that I'm reading "Watchmen" right now and they gave me this look like, "Aren't you too old to be reading comic books?"

WOO HOO! :) Self-tagging rocks.

I think I am your twin.

I am almost everything on your list except that I HAVE dated an American (but am dating a European right now), and I am not a lawyer but I studied to be one in school before I switched to bidness...

Oh and eel tastes like heaven to me. Not like French toast.

Shtinkykat - Watchmen is soo good! I also occasionally read manga (for the past year it's been Her Majesty's Dog - I highly recommend it!). I had someone come out and say it right to my face (not about comics, but about video games) - something along the lines of "video games are only acceptable for prepubescent boys." A lawyer said this to me at my old workplace. This was after she was complaining that her husband played games, and I chimed in saying I played, and there was nothing wrong with it. People are so closed minded!

FB - maybe we were separated at birth?? :O haha. I think eel tastes like (heavenly) french toast, so we're still twins! ;) And BUTTERFISH! Also heaven.
