The "25 Things" Thing

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

If you got tagged on this one, write 25 interesting facts about yourself and tag other people (and the person who sent this to you) and pass it on.


25. I was in my all-girls’ high school’s production of the musical 1776. My character got rum for the founding fathers and said “Sweet Jesus” a lot.

24. I was a History major in college. I was also one credit short of a Math minor.

23. I used to be anti-sports and anti-athletics, almost as a matter of principle. So, I’m a bit surprised that I now keep a regular gym schedule.

22. When I was in kindergarten, I was obsessed with Alice in Wonderland. I even wore an “Alice” costume to school on several occasions.

21. I was on the debate team at high school, and was pretty horrible at it. Still, it was fun to attend various meets and debate topics like “Bert and Ernie are/are not Gay” and “The National Anthem should/should not be Changed to Gangster’s Paradise.” The highlight of the debate team experience was the annual tournament at UC Berkeley. We would stay at “Grandma’s Bed and Breakfast,” eat at the vegan diner, and walk around the shops near Berkeley. And, because I wasn’t very good and didn’t qualify for finals, I had more time to do the fun stuff.

20. A few years ago, I bought a mandolin on a whim. Sadly, I never learned to play it.
