Okay, so, without further ado, I give you 10 things you didn't know about me! ^^!
1) Despite the huge amount of time I spend on the 'net, I love books and reading them. I have three fair-sized bookcases in my room and they're all packed to overflowing with novels, along with a few comic books and a fair number of manga. But it's mostly fantasy novels.
2) I have a phobia of art museums. This requires a bit of explaining; I'm not scared of art (I wouldn't be on this site if I was) but when I was in third grade my family got to visit both France and Italy, both countries renouned for their artists. During these visits, my family and I visited a large number of art museums. There are only so many miles of art gallery a third grader can take before it stops being fun to look at the pictures, no matter how into art they are. (And I was pretty into art, even back then) It's getting better; I can now be pursueded to go into an art museum without too much difficulty, but they still aren't my first choice of places to visit.
3) Some of you may know that I attend university in New Brunswick. The interesting thing, however, is that I had been planning to attend college/university in Canada since at least 1st grade, because I'm Canadian but I've lived most of my life in America. Thus I have finally accomplished my goal of returning 'home' for University! WOOT!
4) I know how to and greatly enjoy sewing. I've made various plushies and numerous clothes and costumes for myself. When I go to the Salvation Army or other thrift stores, I often check out the bedding section for cotton sheets, because cotton sheets = cheap, pre-softened faberic for sewing costumes with. >3!
5) I wear costumes to class sometimes, if I feel like it. I started doing this in High School and do it still in univeristy, though I'm able to wear more interesting costumes in university. Thus, my High School was often subject to 'Dress Like a Pirate Day' or 'Rennaisance Appreciation Day'. (Fun fact: people actually stop commenting after the first few times you do this if you don't act like you're doing anything out of the ordinary)
6) Except for the bottom sheet, I never tuck my sheets or blankets under the end of my bed, they're always loose, the easier to create a cocoon to sleep in at night. Thus, my bed only ever gets made right before I go to bed, and that's only to ensure that the blankets are smooth and that the sheet is still underneath them.
7) I can't snap my fingers. At all. Been trying to for years, but it just ain't happinin'. This annoies the heck out of me. -.-*
8) I'm really good at mimicing accents. I can speak a little German and a bit of Japanese - though I'm not nearly fluent in either. However, I can speak with accented English well enough that it sounds as though English isn't my first language. I can also imitate various cockney and southern accents with great skill.
9) I have a really bad sense of smell. I can stick my nose in a sneaker that a guy has been using for gym all year and which hasn't been washed once, inhale, and get a bit of a whiff of unpleasent smell. I still have an excellent sense of taste, but smells just don't register for some reason. I'm actually pretty satisfied with this state of affairs, too. There are advantages to being smelling-impaired.
10) I love running around barefoot. Even during school - I started taking my shoes off in class during High School (except for science class, due to the possibility of glass shards from broken lab equipment) and leaving them under my desk during class, then putting them back on to change classes. Surprisingly, it was usually only my classmates who complained and almost never the teachers. And even my classmates didn't complain that much.
Well, that's it! Hope you enjoyed learning some new stuff about me! Now, apparently I have to tag 8 people. Who should I tag? Hmmm... who do I know... let's see... I tag the following people:

I know that's only 7 people, but that's everyone I feel comfortable tagging. Bye for now!
