It might seem like a great hand, but having three top trump cards at the same time is just such a waste. Arrrgh! You can't relate to my pain unless you know how to play Briškula.
This is my contribution to the group 13 Things. The photo was not set up, it's one I already had, just happens to carry the numbers 1+3 and 13 :D
Here are 13 random facts about me, starting with one closely related to Flickr:
1. I got into photography to impress a boy. Sad but true.
The boy wasn’t impressed and I finally stopped trying. But the love for Flickring stayed with me and is now all my own.
2. I have two passports.
I’m scheming to get a third one. But it should be a different color. Now I have blue and boreaux. Maybe green next? Which countries would that be?
3. At 16 I ran away from home.
4. I talk to myself, out loud.
Practicing entire speeches and conversations. Even outside sometimes.
5. My Mom was 40 when she had me.
I’m her only child. I have an older half-sister, though, but she doesn’t want to meet me. Her loss! :p
6. I'm a Rat. This is my year!
7. I’d really like to be able to “get” natural sciences.
So I try, I read books, I watch Discovery, but it’s still not getting through.
8. I didn’t graduate.
Which is ridiculous because my major was so easy. Lazy and immature.
9. I don’t have a TV
because I don’t know the meaning of the word “in moderation”. Yeah, ok, that’s two words.
10. When I was 13 I had a mean best friend who convinced me that my legs were too skinny and ugly (puh-leeez!). It made me miserable (teens are so pathetic), so I had my Mom saw pads on the inside of all my jeans to make my thighs look fuller. Years later I realized that back then this “friend” was so unhappy with her own figure (ahem...on the fuller side) that this was her way of making herself feel better.
11. A drunken soldier once held a loaded gun to my head.
During the war. In a bar. For fun.
12. My feet are ugly.
13. I was in love many times, but I only ever properly loved once. There’s nothing else like it. Can’t wait to do it again :-)
