I gave in to the latest Facebook craze and thought I would immortalize my '25 Random Things' here.
1. My car's name is Maizy Mazda and my computer's is Fiona Apple.
2. I am ENTJ - light on the E.
3. When I was little, my parents called me "skinny mini legs" - now they just call me Jess.
4. My maternal ancestors are English convicts that were shipped to Australia - my paternal ancestors came on the Mayflower. Yes, I do the white girl dance.
5. I fanaticize about tackling the religious zealots in Bruin Plaza often.
6. I went to business school to find myself but now I am worried that "myself" does not reside at UCLA Anderson.
7. My wrist is the first bone I have ever broken besides the countless toe casualties at the hands (or feet?) of my parents' couch.
8. I am not particularly good at sleeping, reading for leisure or anything that requires rhythm (with the exception of the Greatest Love of All).
9. My priorities have changed very little since I was 6; 20 years later playing outside is still near the top of the list.
10. I will eat (and probably like) almost anything, but the mere sight of baby corns makes me want to vomit.
11. Napping to the sound of Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals is one of my most treasured past times.
12. I have my own dictionary, some selections include:
• Moonile – Ouch
• Bugbite – Appropriate for any occasion that warrants whining
• Fro / Froto / Fruity Muffin / Muffler – Lacey
• Lorter – Mom
• Roni / Summer Soltice – Sully the dog
• Lesbian Overlord – Carrots (or maybe it was the peas?)
• Molly / Peter / Lucy – Ali
• Honkshoe – Boring
• Smelly Christmas – Gross
• Empezo! – Nothing in particular but it must be shouted
13. I am proud of my gold star.
14. I have never done illegal drugs but I once ate an entire box of fudgsicles in Regan's back seat and I do respond to the nickname "Puff."
15. I take song lyrics very seriously but make exceptions for the works of The Spice Girls and Britney.
16. As an 11 year old, I decided to pursue religion. I set out alone on my bike to attend my local Baptist church. After two Sundays, I decided that sleeping in was a more spiritual experience.
17. I hated LA but then I moved here.
18. I used to bribe my sister to clean my room for 25 cents. I had to save her life to make it up to her.
19. I use a Mac but feel smarter when I use Windows.
20. Consulting may be the perfect profession for me - I just wished I liked it.
21. I hate running but I hate it when I cannot run.
22. I had a lazy eye that went away at 15 but still surfaces from time to time in the form of squints and looks of confusion.
23. I quit soccer after 8th grade because I thought my teammates were bitches - I still regard this as one of my worst decisions of all time.
24. I have a very low tolerance for laziness, poor time management and smelly people.
25. This might just be my favorite time in my life.
