The blog goes facebook

...or the other way around.

Wrote a list on facebook today (still cannot believe how addicted I am to it). It was basically one of those 'chain mail' like things, when you list some stuff about yourself, and then pass it on, expecting all your friends to write about themselves back. If I get that in my normal mail I occasionally do it, but not always. But this time it was a list of 25 completely random things - making it really hard to 1) think of 25 things, 2) think of 25 things you want to share with others, and 3) think of 25 things you want to share with others but might still be fun or interesting for them to read.

Anyway, since not all of you are on facebook, and since I cannot for the world think of anything to blog about today, here's my list:

1. I really dislike my eyebrowes.
2. I got secretly engaged to hubby after having dated only 3,5 months.
3. Something must have happened to my brain when I was 16, because ever since then I cannot do maths. Used to love it when I was younger.
4. I cannot stand the taste of coconut after getting really drunk on piña coladas.
5. I was allergic to all dairy products as a child, and still do not drink milk (and will therefore probably break all my bones by the time I’m 60).
6. I will, at some point in life, adopt a cat.
7. I have a very serious conscience, and will fret about tiny things for ages — I teased a girl in first grade and still feel bad about it (sorry!)
8. I lisped as a kid, and had to have tongue surgery — I still cannot roll my r’s.
9. I never liked NKOTB, although pretended to have a crush on one of them, just because as a girl you had to.
10. My motto is to never regret anything, but there are, in fact, a few things I do regret.
11. I have quite a temper, and once tore up a love note hubby had written to me, just because I was so cross with him. I regret that!
12. I haven’t skated on ice since I was about 10 or 12, when my mum refused to buy me new skates, but insisted I’d use her old ones. They were brown and orange, and I was too embarrassed to be seen wearing them.
13. 10 years old I crashed with my bike, and completely freaked out — not because of the blood and the pain, but because my friend was hysterical, crying that she could see the brain running out of my head!
14. I keep a journal for depressive thoughts, but never go back and read the entries. It probably saves me from having to see a therapist, though.
15. I’m allergic to liquorish.
16. I love cookbooks, but can’t really be bothered to cook myself.
17. I think chocolate is overrated.
18. Taking political science at university was a complete waste of time. I wish I had done history or art history instead.
19. I spend far too much time in front of the computer.
20. My best subjects in school was history and all languages, but I somehow also managed to get an A in science. Probably because everyone else in class was so lazy.
21. When I moved away from home, I once dreamt that my mum screamed she hated me, and never wanted to see me again. The next morning I had to call her to make sure she still loved me. She sent me a postcard the same day, saying she does. I still treasure that card.
22. In high school, I really hated philosophy, and used to spend the time in class at the back of the room, reading girly magazines and gossiping with my best friend. At the end of the year, I managed to talk myself up to a good grade, by claiming that the teacher had ignored us.
23. I don’t believe in astrology, but am sometimes scared to see how much said about cancerians that fits my personality.
24. If we ever have kids, I will definitely be the strict and boring parent. Hubby will be the fun one.
25. I’m basically always cold, and do not miss Scandinavian winters at all.
