1--- I'm not afraid to admit that I know nothing about politics.

2--- I like being alone because I do enjoy my company, but sometimes I crave being with other people so much that I cry if I can't indulge in a little companionship.

3--- I bite my nails when I'm nervous. I chew on my bottom lip when I'm nervous. I am not a cannibal.

4--- My family uses clichés and expressions like they're going out of style. And I hate them with a passion. But I use them because that's what I grew up with. However, I think I went into Creative Writing at University and started writing (poetry and prose) to try and think up other ways of expressing my thoughts and ideas; to sort of beat my parents, I guess.

5--- I graduated from Some University in 2003 with a B.A. in Creative Writing. I haven't gone back to school since. Halleluiah.

6--- I don't have many friends, and the ones I do have almost all live far away from me.

7--- I have a tattoo and four piercings.(my ears)

8--- I am a borderline hypochondriac.

9--- I secretly like it when people stare at me. Although, sometimes I wonder if they're staring at my beauty, or my disability.

10--- I'm deaf. Diagnosed at age 4. I have a neuro-sensorial bilateral hearing impairment. Meaning - I'm deaf in both ears from burned out nerves.

11--- I am very easily influenced and can be manipulated. It's a fault I'll probably never be able to correct.

12--- I was thinking of going back to school just to meet and date men, not because I actually wanted to better myself.

13--- I am the rebel of the family. I was forever getting grounded when I was younger.

15--- I lost my virginity at the age of 17 to a rapist.

16--- I'm not a thief, liar, or druggie. I don't smoke or drink coffee. I rarely eat bacon or spinach, and I hate traffic.

17--- I don't consider myself desperate, but I really want to meet my lifemate, get married, have kids, and live dysfunctionally ever after.

18--- I didn't find out that one of my exes cheated on me until about a year and a half after we had broken up. It doesn't bother me. What does bother me is that the woman he cheated on me with got pregnant 3 months before I broke it off with him and now he's as happy as a pig in shit.

19--- I don't have any pets, but I love dogs.

20--- I'm the only creative person in my family. I'm the only one who has any artistic ability(writing). I could swear I'm adopted.

21--- I am highly allergic to: Penicillin, caffeine and cats. I am moderately allergic to: dust, grass, trees, pollen, most flowers, strong scents, and crab.

22---I'm a very sarcastic person. But I'm not mean.

23--- I have brown hair with blonde,black,red highlights. In the sun and bright lights my hair is auburn. I have brown eyes with a navy blue ring around them.

24--- I refuse to be defined by what happened in my past.

25--- I've had a handful of one-night stands that I don't wish to repeat. I'm old enough now that it's time to settle down.

26--- I love trivia and comedic quotes from all famous, infamous and non-famous people.

27--- I know the difference between famous and infamous.

28--- I have post-its all over the place and text documents all over my laptop desktop because my memory is really really bad.

29--- My favourites: Food: kraft dinner. Drink: water. Alcoholic drink: lime Daiquiri. Colour: Deep Purple. Number: 831. Day of the week: Friday. Month: February. Season: Spring.

30--- I'm a klutz. I fall down the stairs, trip up the stairs, slip and fall even when pavement is dry. I am just a general nuisance and a victim of chronic bad luck.

31--- I spill things all the time, but never on myself. I have perfect manners and never spill while I eat.

32--- I live with my parents and great aunt. I am saving money like crazy but ache to move out.

33--- Parents and siblings of all past boyfriends have loved me to death. Cats love me, dogs love me, lizards love me, but parrots hate me.

34--- I am a very inexperienced kisser.

35--- I have met a handful of people off the internet. One was a 3½ year relationship. One was a friend for life. One is in progress.

36--- A lot about my life is centered around my deafness. It's one of the most defining factors of my character.

37--- One of the very first words I ever uttered was my brother's name because he was always getting in trouble with my mother. She would frequently yell his name. I heard her yelling, at least.

38--- I don't frequently feel sorry for myself because of my deafness, because when I do I get criticized by my parents. They don't chide me about this "for my own good," but to be pricks.

39--- I love my name. I do not really have a middle name. There is one noted on my birth certificate but I have incorporated it into being a part of my first name so now I don't have a middle name.

40--- Sometimes I can be longwinded.

41--- I don't know how to flirt. Or rather, I flirt unsuccessfully. And sometimes when I flirt it becomes very awkward and uncomfortable for both me and the person with whom I am flirting. Which is why I usually leave it up to the other person to make the first move.

42--- I dwell on things for long periods of time. Bad and good.

43--- I'm an apologetic person. I am also compassionate and observant.

44--- I love to smile and laugh so much that sometimes I do stupid things just to laugh.

45--- I am obsessed with butterflies. I went to a butterfly conservatory a few years ago and one gorgeous butterfly landed on my boob. So I guess you can say I was touched by butterflies. Ever since then I've been a fanatic.

46--- I hate cartoons.

47--- I hate all computer games with the exception of: Mahjongg.

48--- I am very good with computers and troubleshooting as well as research. I have almost an entire page of computer skills listed on my c.v. I am forever being asked "how do I..." questions about computers by most everyone who knows me.

49--- I hate the rain unless I'm home and inside curled up with a good book. I love cloudy days.

50--- I am very self-conscious.

51--- I never wear lipstick, but I do wear a little make-up.

52--- I think my eyes are my best feature. I'll always say my eyes are my best feature.

53--- I hate skunks, Dr.Pepper, miniskirts, polka dots, fucked up closed captioning, sci-fi movies, teen magazines, liver and onions, greasy hospital lotion, bad spellers, internet lingo.

54--- My favourite smells are clothes fresh from the dryer(the Bounce sheet), my St.Ives Whipped Silk lotion, my fruits and passion Peach perfume, original Dove deodorant, and Jean Paul Gauthier "Male" cologne for men.

55--- My least favourite smells are cooking vanilla, cauliflower and broccoli, gasoline, firewood burning, B.O, and that uncleaned smell coming from people who haven't washed their clothes in weeks.

56--- I'm shy and I have dimples. I have freckles and beauty marks all over my body. I also have a somewhat heart-shaped beauty mark on my right ass-cheek.(depends on which way you glance at it)

57--- I don't get PMS. Honestly. And during my period I'm actually more loving.

58--- I'm not a member of the deaf culture because I don't know sign language and I use assistive listening devices as opposed to going "au naturel." And I'm certainly not a member of the hearing society because I have such trouble hearing normal things that people take for granted. So I'm an in-between and I fucking hate it.

59--- I don't like to fight. But I hate to lose an argument. I frequently make and lose bets. I am almost always wrong.

60--- If I didn't depend on them so much I would never wear my hearing aids. They hurt my ears and make them itchy.

61--- I lipdrop all the time. (Eavesdrop by lipreading)

62--- My speech is near perfect, so I don't SOUND deaf. I remember once I was dating this guy and the first few times we went out he never knew I was deaf. Sure I asked him to repeat sometimes but he thought it was because he was a mumbler. (he was.) One day I had my hair up and turned my head to look at something and he saw my hearing aids. He was shocked. He didn't know what to say. I saw how shocked he was and I explained to him how my parents pushed me to endure speech lessons galore and how I can hear a lot with my hearing aids, but not so much without them. He never called me after that date. I guess it was too much for him. But I secretly like the fact that he was so shocked to find out I was deaf. It's actually a compliment to myself, my speech tutor and my parents, when you think about it.

63--- I am forever afflicted with clammy hand syndrome.

64--- I can withstand an enormous amount of pain.

65--- I get impatient and frustrated very easily. But I'm a very patient person. I am a contradiction at best.

66--- I can play many musical instruments which include: piano, keyboards, flute, a little of clarinet, a little of drums, harmonica. I didn't say I can play them well.

67--- My favourite movies are: Sound of Music; Pretty Woman; Grease; Center Stage; Dirty Dancing; Coyote Ugly; The Breakfast Club.

68--- I'm an Aquarian (See #14) so I'm a very tolerant person.

69--- I'm supposed to be Catholic, but I don't care about religion.

70--- I'm a short arse. I am 5'1 and 5/8" tall. I just say I'm 5'2".

71--- I have a driver's licence and have been driving since I was 18.

72--- My wardrobe is a mix and match of comfortable, casual, formal wear. I always buy clothes based on 1)if they're comfortable 2)if it doesn't make my ass look big. (i.e: if I look good in it) And I'm a shoe person. I own a pair of blue suede shoes that are my favourite shoes to wear.

73--- I have one older brother.

74--- My favourite person in my family was born April 26th, 2003. She is my precious niece.

75--- I was somewhat of a loner in high school, college and university. But I was a neutral loner. I would flit from clique to clique getting along with everybody, but not staying long enough to make friends.

76--- I love to travel and have been to many places. The most notable of which are; Scotland, England, some states in the US such as Miami and New Jersey, and some provinces in Canada such as Nova Scotia, Ontario and New Brunswick.

77--- For the longest time I thought I was a lesbian. Then I figured out I wasn't, so I thought I was bisexual. Now I'm a bi-curious heterosexual.

78--- I love getting compliments but receive very few.

79--- I'm romantic and affectionate. I love it when guys write love letters/emails/notes. I've never received a love letter/email/note from a guy.

80--- When I like something a lot I become obsessed with it until I get sick of it. For example: I'll continually play a song until I'm tired of it. I once ate cheesecake for a long time and now I can't stand it. The same thing with stringy cheese. Of course, this obsessive behaviour does not spill into my relationships with people.

81--- I can't draw, paint, sing, hum, whistle properly, play basketball, bowl successfully, or bake a cake without it falling.

82--- I have a phobia of rocking chairs, ladders and skunks.

83--- I believe that everything happens for a reason and sometimes you're lucky enough to find out the reason.

84--- I work full-time at a cool workplace with nice people except for 1 annoying bitch. (And for once, it's not me)

85--- My favourite books are: "I Know This Much is True" Wally Lamb; "She's Come Undone" Wally Lamb; "The Secret Life of Bees" Sue Monk Kidd; "What Looks Like Crazy on an Ordinary Day" Pearl Cleage; "Lucky" Alice Sebold; "Christy" Catherine Marshall; "The Catcher in the Rye" J.D. Salinger; and most anything by Nicholas Sparks.

86--- I am forever changing things about myself. I change my mind frequently about almost everything.

87--- Because I have curly, coarse, thick, unmanageable hair that I can't do much with during the summer, I wear the same old comfortable hairstyle that I have been wearing for ten years: a ponytail. I iron my hair in the winter when there's no humidity.

88--- I have run out of thoughts.
