Description I don't normally do stuff like this (makes me feel like the vain tweenager I once was in my early internet days) but at the same time I am feeling nostalgic for about-me things. XD The only problem is I always post the same facts because I'm boring
I was tagged by ^-^

Rules:

1. Post 8 Facts about yourself. Preferably odd and unknown ones.

2. Tag 5 People.

3. Don't tag the ones that tagged you!

4. Have fun.~

1. I CAN LICK MY ELBOW!!! I am way too proud of this. I have a super flexible right shoulder, and a super-long tongue (I can't lick my left elbow)...

2. I am not allergic to mosquito bites. While all my friends put on bug spray and long clothing in 90 degree heat to avoid itchy bumps, I can comfortably get lyme disease without even knowing it.

3. I have like every Pokemon VHS that was available when I was a kid (we didn't get a DVD player until maaany years later so when that switch came I stopped getting them) -- this means I have like, all the originals plus some of Johto. xD What on earth do I do with them now.

4. I am probably the only student at my college who doesn't have a smart phone. A lot of people make fun of me for this.

5. I really like to watch people play video games (like, Zelda type things... some first person shooters if they have interesting stories... zombie games....). People are always like "here you can have a turn you must be so bored!" But I'm really not? I seriously enjoy just watching. Wish someone would understand that.

6. I love to travel. Uuugggghgh. Of course I'm too poor to do that a lot. But I'd love to go to Germany next summer.

7. I am a fraternal twin, my twin brother is about a foot taller than me and has blue eyes blonde hair while I have brown eyes brown hair, we are nothing alike, etc etc

8. I really like spiders, slugs, worms... basically most creepy crawlies. I them all


No pressure to do this, guys, just if you're bored as I am (I'm at work ... XD )
I will tag:

You don't have a smart phone? That's kind of awesome. I held out for the longest time before finally giving in.

I'm going to try to do this sometime, but I'm having trouble thinking of 8 interesting things about me. I'm so boring. T____T

OMG, I've tried so hard to lick my elbow and can never do it. You'd be the first person I know of that can do that lol.
And can I just.... *takes all Pokemon VHS tapes* Ty Vury much have a nice day

WOOOOOW a fraternal twin? That's SWEEEET, It's cool to see twins of any kind next to eachother.
And as for the bugs, you can keep the spiders haha

Thank you for doing this silly journal lol, I hope you had fun doing it xD

I don't have a smart phone either. I don't really see the need for one.

Hooray! ^_^ I love spiders too. I think baby Antilles pink-toe tarantulas are so cute, they're just so fuzzy and blue ^w^

Ha! I graduated college last year and I still don't have a smartphone! Never give in! (until you can, of course, smartphones are awesome)

Ah, see, you have siblings, that's why you can be entertained by watching others play video games. I'm the same way. I don't need to play, if the game itself is interesting. I have two brothers, and we always had to share the video games, so two-thirds of the time I was watching instead of playing. So now I'm fine with just watching. But people who don't have siblings or who didn't need to share growing up don't understand that, which is fine. But yeah, I'm totally the same way ^^

Well, I will have graduated a year by now and I'm sure I still won't have one xD eheh

Hmm, we didn't have video games in our house until recent years. Also my bro is bad at games so I don't watch him. xD I didn't grow up sharing, I just prefer the experience of watching.

I guess then you and I are different in that regard, though we both enjoy watching :3 It certainly requires less effort. Plus you get to act like a back seat driver! xD

You mentioned The Legend of Zelda...is that your favorite series?

Nintendo is great, though I owe my original childhood allegiances to Sega. And I never really got into Pokemon.

I should be ashamed, I know. xD

Haha. I remember a long time ago I used to do three or four quizzes like this at a time when I was bored. XD

Aw man Pokemon VHS. I think I watched some of the earlier ones so much they don't even work now lol... we've got boxes and boxes of VHS tapes sitting in the garage and I doubt I could even find any specific ones now. x.x Still don't have THAT many dvds... we didn't get a player till like 2005.

I didn't get a smartphone until... uh... I think a month and a half ago. People actually took pictures of my ancient flip phone from 2008 until then. XD And travel's kinda my goal in life but unless I get a job where I get paid TO travel, it's gonna be out of financial reach.

Spiders are awesome. My brother's a bit afraid of them, but even though our house is overrun with rather dangerous brown recluse, I won't kill any of 'em because we've lived with 'em in every house we've moved to for the last 20 years with no problems, so why bother them? Sign of a healthy environment, even indoors haha.
