I've reached the point where blogging about my life seems like more of a chore than writing fic, so... I'm writing fic. Maybe I'm turning into one of those people who post nothing but another fic every week or two. Would people like that, I wonder. XD

Very old meme as tagged by [livejournal.com profile] ladysisyphus (but I didn't forget!): To play, start by listing 10 weird things/habits/little known facts about yourself. When this is done, choose 10 people to be tagged and write their names at the bottom of your list. No tag backs! Those who get tagged then write their own 10-item list in their own journals. Be sure to include this set of rules.

...See this post for the first five. Those items are still valid. XD

As for the rest:

6) My first memory is of my great-grandmother (who died when I was 2 1/2) feeding me a White Rabbit caramel candy.

7) I don't remember not knowing how to read. Thus I don't remember how I learnt to read either (it happened around the same time as 6, but I only remember events that involve food in some way. This is not a joke). The first two books I can remember reading (age 4) were The Complete Sherlock Holmes and One Hundred Tang Poems, which my grandparents made me memorize. This paragraph sums up everything there is to know about me. >_>

8) Meanwhile, the only poem I have memorized as an adult is the first stanza and a half of "Kubla Khan", which I use as sample text in lieu of "ipsum lorum". I see other people spouting poetry quotes and am baffled as to how they do it.

9) I have this problem whereby if I drink a glass of water (any volume of liquid really), the selfsame glass of water leaves my system after 20 minutes, in the time-honoured manner. Again, no idea how other people manage.

10) One more, er... I like patterned knee socks! As in rainbow horizontal stripes and purple argyle and things. Although that's lasted for a few years and I'll probably be moving onto leggings soon.

Tagging (no idea who's done it already ^^;): [livejournal.com profile] arboretum, [livejournal.com profile] insaneneko, [livejournal.com profile] kuroraka, [livejournal.com profile] marej, [livejournal.com profile] murinae, [livejournal.com profile] saturnoolaa, [livejournal.com profile] silvermuse89, [livejournal.com profile] sub_divided, [livejournal.com profile] woodburner, [livejournal.com profile] xparrot.

Also: honesty meme here, why not. XD I've been dead to Livejournal for like ONE WHOLE WEEK and it's important to keep the blood circulating, and by blood I mean comments.
