well, i got tagged so here are my 20 things. i will try to make them at least somewhat interesting altho considering the subject matter that will be slightly difficult

1. i've smoked marlboro lights for the last ten years. but for about 5 of those i've exclusively ordered them online and now prefer the swiss blend and hate the american blend. which i find really amusing cus marlboro's like teh american-ness

2. i consider myself an anarchist but i don't do shit about it. i don't believe one has to preach their beliefs or try to change the world, i just know what's right for me.

3. i have a tattoo on the center of my back that i hate. luckily i can't see it so i can pretend it's not there, but the moral is kids: if you don't feel comfortable with who is tattooing you GET THE FUCK OUT!

4. i am deathly afraid of my birthday falling on a friday (the 13th). when i was little i had a fight with my 3 best friends at my birthday party, and on my 13th birthday (also a friday) i almost got stabbed. twice. otherwise the number 13 and friday the 13ths don't worry me at all.

5. i vary from extremely insecure to slightly vain with little in between. usually depends on whether or not i like my hair that day i guess

6. i dream of being a rock star but i don't even have a band.

7. i have a rather unhealthy obsession with anything related to Predator, Aliens, and the Matrix.

8. i own a lot of shoes for a boy

9. i dated someone for almost six years and she cheated on me while she was living in my house rent free

10. when i was little i had a stuffed animal hedgehog, but i couldn't say hedgehog, so his name was shosh.

and a day later i complete the list

11. i lived in 3 different countries by the time i was 13. born in england, spent 2 years in Dubai, UAE and moved to the US at 13.

12. i collect zippo lighters. i've collected them since even before i started smoking

13. i taught myself how to play guitar at 14 by listening to nirvana songs and strumming along - started a band - wrote a shitload of songs, and then sometime in the last few years just gave up because i'm frustrated at everything i write...

14. i find these lists extremely difficult to complete because i don't know the difference between "interesting stuff about me" and "what sounds like bragging"

15. i have really tiny nipples

16. i hold a pen really weird. people point it out all the time (yea thanks) - i put it down to the fact that my little brother almost died when i was born so i was shipped off to my grandparents' house and ignored for a lot of my early childhood, hence i had to teach myself how to write...

17. my father got caught in the mass downsizing of 1998 and being that we had no green cards/citizenship/"right" to live in the US - we had to move back to the UK. but instead i figured out a way to stay by getting sponsored by the Rotary Club as an international student to finish senior year of high school...

18. if i'm not really happy by the age of 27, i plan on killing myself...it's been my "plan" for about 10 years now, even though i know it's fucking retarded...

19. i own just about every piece of music that the now defunt band Terrorvision released. but as each year goes by, i realize a little more that although i love them, they're pretty awful

20. i hate vegetables...
