darkmoon.
1. Copy this whole list into your journal.
2. Bold the things that you have in common with me.
3. Whatever you don't bold, replace with things about you. (Like darkmoon, I decided to try to make my replacements touch on the same issue/issues when I could)
01. I consider my unnatural hair colour to be my "natural" hair colour.
02. I have bits of mixed nuts stuck in my teeth at the moment.
03. I tend to remember the dumbest things - like TV epsiodes and such.
04. I wish I felt more comfortable dancing.
05. I like my room, but being at home makes me feel trapped because I still live with my parents.
06. Sometimes I wonder if anyone understands.
07. I hate when people type in all caps online.
08. I loathe "l33t" speak with the passion of a billion supernovas. (unless used as a joke)
09. I mind people who don't speak/write in proper English if it's their native language.
10. I wish I were bilingual.
11. I tend to lose interest in things that I'm not naturally good at.
12. My job is annoying me more and more as time goes on.
13. It's almost always hard for me to deal with personalities substantially different than mine.
14. I tend to avoid letting people know too much about my past, these days.
15. I have almost never been at peace with who I am (in my memory, anyway - maybe I was when I was three, I have no clue).
16. I sometimes wonder how I might have turned out if my parents had slept in the same room or showed any physical affection whatsoever towards one another.
17. I tend to stay relatively still when sleeping alone, but apparently am a blanket-stealer when sleeping with a partner.
18. I have a lot to learn.
19. I'm not sure when the last time was that I was frustrated to tears, but I'm sure it was within the past six months.
20. I check my email way more than every day; I have it set to auto-check every 20 minutes and tend to answer it in the near-constant stream in which it comes.
21. I wish I could be an artist, writer, musician, or otherwise creative sort of person.
22. Sometimes I just need to be by myself.
23. I think too many people make excuses for their behavior instead of taking responsibility for being a bitch/asshole. (Similar to this - I think too many people use "hey, I calls 'em as I sees 'em" as an excuse to be just fucking rude or mean.)
24. I have never really felt like I fit in.
25. I am very good at budgeting and not spending money that I don't have.
26. I think the way that jobs and work are structured in this society is messed up.
27. I recognize that I can be a bit dorky at times.
28. I'm a weird person.
29. I think I live in about the best climate it is possible to have.
30. I'm think I'm cynical about the state of the nation and its population, but I probably don't know from cynicism.
31. I'd like to make the world a better place to live.
32. I collect a lot less junk than I used to.
33. I fill out memes and quizzes because I'm bored, not because I think you care.
34. Almost without exception, children irritate me beyond belief. I cannot stand children.
35. I hardly ever set foot in a movie theater. (The last movie I saw in the theater was Pirates of the Caribbean, in August.)
36. I have very few supertitions. (except as jokes)
37. I'm a night person.
38. There's a limit to how long I'm willing to listen to someone's problems if they never seem to make an effort to fix them.
39. I am very nearsighted, though nowhere near "legally blind".
40. I have known issues with anything that I perceive to be exclusionary.
41. I like to be flattered, admired, and stroked. But it embarasses me, too.
42. I like people who are a bit out of the ordinary.
43. I like giving other people a lift - with compliments or little gifts.
44. I hate to see children suffer.
45. I hate when good ideas get warped beyond recognition into extremism.
46. I hate doing chores.
47. I don't think there's very much correlation, if any, between when I do/find something and when (if ever) it is "trendy".
48. I'm aware that some of my answers probably contradict each other, because I feel differently at different times.
49. I wonder if anyone will read this list through.
50. I want to instantly and effortlessly have enough money to make the concept of money meaningless to me.
51. I crave privacy and am sometimes a loner, but I also want to have a "tribe" that I frequently see. My feelings about sociability seem to be somewhat askew from the norm, even among the unusual sorts I tend to know.
52. I dislike holiday commercialism.
53. The best part about the holidays is paid time off work.
54. I am somewhat embarrassed about the cosmetic surgery-types of things I want to have done someday.
55. I like being alone sometimes. (This is different from 22, "Sometimes I just need to be by myself"?)
56. I have never been terribly picky about what I eat. There are a few foods I really don't like, but other than that I'm pretty flexible. I can have a hard time deciding in a restaurant, though.
57. I don't like big crowds.
58. I need to exercise.
59. I like when my friends write me letters and emails, it makes me feel special.
60. I'm pessimistic and cynical sometimes.
61. I have a very hard time understanding emotions in general.
62. I can't understand what the big deal is sometimes.
63. I overreact about things fairly frequently, but rarely let it out.
64. I love the mountains but dislike the beach.
65. I'm trying to let go of old scars and grudges.
66. I believe that talking about small problems can help to resolve them.
67. I try believe everyone can cure their own problems if they really work at it, rather than saying "This is how I am / this is how life is," but I don't always manage it.
68. I really don't care for pr0n of any kind.
69. I think GW Bush is pretty damn bad, but not the worst possible President the US could have at this time. However, this is mainly because I'm sure there's almost always something worse than what is; I don't really have a picture of what that worse President would be.
70. I really don't think I'm that complex or interesting.
71. I dislike Sacramento summers, but the other seasons are usually pretty nice.
72. Mild drunkeness is ok, but people who get completely wasted can really annoy me. This can include myself.
73. I'm online a fair amount, but I feel less inclined to be online in my spare time than I used to.
74. I know a lot of stuff that I never intended to learn.
75. I have lived in Santa Clara county for all but 3 years of my life.
76. I have to remind myself sometimes that if a friend makes a choice I don't agree with or approve of, that's not their problem.
77. I probably should read more.
78. I can read a book multiple times. It's like an old friend.
79. I'm sure I'm not getting enough sleep these days.
80. I tend to get irritated with people in general, though of course there are exceptions.
81. I tend to think of myself as having strange expectations of other people, and therefore as somewhat difficult to deal with.
82. I've had my heart broken.
83. I'm almost making enough money that I can get by without a problem. (Assuming for the scenario that I was living on my own)
84. I'm not very close to my family.
85. I'm as stubborn as a very stubborn thing sometimes.
86. I am not thrilled with where my life is now and hope that I will be a lot more satisfied once I move to Canada.
87. I don't understand why anyone in their right mind would oppose gay civil marriage.
88. I'm often envious of my friends, although not in a bitter sense.
89. I am extremely skeptical of the efficacy of our democracy, but I vote anyway.
90. I hate having the feeling that I'm not going to go anywhere in life.
91. I love the smell of wood smoke.
92. I believe that opportunities are always available to those who look for them.
93. I try to believe that everything will work out for the best, even if it doesn't seem that way.
94. I hope one day to fully understand my place in this world.
95. I wish people would actually take joy in learning.
96. I wish people would be more polite, more gentle, more careful with their words.
97. I can't stand people calling rudeness and idiocy entertainment.
98. I have little clue who my truest self is; as far as I can tell, what I really am deep down is not something that I want to be, and so I actually try to avoid being that being.
99. I wish America wasn't so enamored of stupidity.
100. I am done with this survey now.
