101 Things About Me, VI

by Sarah Gould

53. I have a strange habit of always wearing two shirts. No matter what kind of shirt I have on, there will be something underneath it. I own more tanktops and thin shirts of the like than I do regular shirts, because I have to have something on under my clothes. I don’t quite understand it but I have been doing some reading on Touch Sensitivity thanks to a friend.

54. I am highly susceptible to stress, and I hate it. I stress about stress. It’s probably not good for me.

55. I have blue eyes. I love my blue eyes. For a long time I wanted green eyes, because they’re rarer, but I love the fact that wearing blue (and sometimes even green) picks up on my eye color and makes them even stronger looking.

56. I love to write and am getting much more into writing lately compared to a year ago. I have participated in NaNoWriMo three years in a row, and have finished two “novels,” which will probably never see the light of day, but blogging has been helping me become prouder of my writing skills.

57. I love Celine Dion. No, really, I do. I’ve loved her since grade school. I own all of her English albums and three of her French ones. I am a fan. I saw her in LasVegas and when she walked out onto the stage I cried. Yes, I cried. I love Celine Dion. (There, I said it!)

58. I wear my watch on my left wrist because I am right-handed. It is uncomfortable on my right wrist.

59. I hate receiving gifts, but I love to give them. I would much rather give things to people than get them because I am embarrassed with I am the center of attention.

    My theory is time is a stressor. So to lessen my stress, I quit wearing a watch. At first you worry what time it is. But after a while, I found that I didn’t really care.

  2. Sarah Says:

    Hmm Mad, I may have to think about that. I never really “concentrate” on time, but it may be something that I watch without realizing.

  3. healthybpm Says:

    I don’t use watches either….

    Compiling 101 facts about yourself must be challenging….interesting.

  4. Crystal Says:

    I think I must be the only right-handed person to wear a watch on my right hand. It feels weird on my left.
