Nijugo (25) Random Facts

Ichi. I love salmon, but I will rarely eat cooked fish any more. I no longer like the taste or texture of cooked fish. So most often I'll have sushi over cooked fish.

Ni. I sing to my cats almost every day.

San. I'm allergic to cats and anything with fur.

Yon. I used to have a great fascination of ghost stories, especially if they had been passed down through historical accounts, so much so that I did my 7th grade history report on poltergeist and turned my doll house into a "haunted house" for the correlating model. During the exhibition, the doll house caught on fire. O_O

Go. The more Naruto I watch, the more I crave ramen. :3

Roku. I really love being behind the mic and doing voice over work! It's where I'm happiest.

Nana. I'm usually clueless if a guy likes me... unless he's one of my creepy stalker "fans". They tend to make themselves known right away. 9_9

Hachi. I broke my tail bone when I was 15. Fell from the rafters in the garage onto the concrete, landed on my back. Fun times. >_<

Kyu. I like baked goods with fruit, like cinnamon raisin bread.

Ju. I began programming in Basic in 1977.

Juichi. I have never asked if an article of clothing ever made my ass look big.

Juni. I started taking dance lessons at the ridiculously young age of 3. Tap and ballet.

Jusan. My mom said if I wanted to join band in jr.high my only option was to play flute. I wanted to play drums. Mom's logic was that girls play the flute and boys play drums. The one person I knew who played flute was a boy. I felt my mom's logic was flawed. I played the flute and hated it. Now I play drums. ^_^

Juyon. Because I was born with jaundice, crossed eyed, and ate slowly, social services assumed I was retarded and almost prevented me from being adopted. I no longer have jaundice, I'm not cross eyed,and am clearly not retarded (except when it comes to guys), but I'm still a slow eater.

Jugo. I was adopted and raised as an only child, but I'm actually the second oldest of 5 siblings from my birth family.

Juroku. Growing up in Huntington Beach, most people (if it ever mattered) assumed I was Mexican. I'm not Mexican, I'm predominantly of Hawaiian heritage.

Junana. Because I'm from HB, people outside of the state often asked if (or assumed) I knew how to surf. I do not know how to surf.

Juhachi. I had a paper route for the OC Register when I was 12 years old for a year. Paper delivery 7 days a week. I was up at 3am on weekends because I was the station manager and I had to sign for the newspapers for both my route and another person's route. My route increased by almost half on Sunday's because of Sunday only delivery. Sometimes it took me 3 hours to fold papers and make all of my deliveries by bike on Sundays, unless it was raining, then it was longer. Made $80 a month on average. Blew it all on video games and candy. Ah, the rockstar life of a 12 year old!

Jukyu. I found my birth mom when I was 25. My baby sister was 5 at the time. She turned 20 last summer. @_@

Niju. When I was 9 my mom cut my hair so short I was often mistaken for a boy. ;_;

Nijuichi. I'm a much happier person when my hair is colored purple. ^_^

Nijuni. I will sometimes play "devil's advocate" even if I agree with your position because I feel it's necessary to take all sides into consideration.

Nijusan. I'm told my first steps were taken at a park across the street from Knott's Berry Farm (which is no longer there), chasing the chickens.

Nijuyon. My first article was published when I was 19. It was an interview with drummer, Gene Hoglan, of the LA speed metal band, Dark Angel.

Nijugo. I've just taught you how to count from 1 - 25 in Japanese. Unless, of course, you already knew how. -_o
