tell me something about yourself ...

[percival]

gacked from my Friends list:


I know very little about some of the people on my friends' list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your fic, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal.

hmmm....

I'll be 23 on Monday. I am learning to drive stick so that I can drive my roommate's car to work and back. I was born in Greece, adopted in Florida, raised near Atlanta, GA, currently live in Norfolk, VA, and am getting ready to move to Mississippi in February (we got our lease last night!! We got the house!!!!).

I am more involved with the US Navy than the guys at work think (they think I know nothing). My Grandad was Navy, as well as four of my uncles, and of the six people I am closest to in the world outside of my family, four are currently in the navy, one will be next year, and one never will but was a "navy brat," so I am pretty familiar with the whole thing. Actually, my Grandad was among the original Seabees in 1942. I have no plans to ever join the military, EVER.

I am a special education major.

I am allergic to cats.

I hate airports, but I love flying.

This freaks some people out, but I am cross-eyed. I was born missing muscles in my left eye, and even after surgery to repair and replace muscles, I never developed binocular vision, and my left eye still turns in when I am not wearing glasses or contact lenses.

I am FINALLY losing the weight that I have been complaining about for years, and I am now the smallest I have been since 1996!!

Mississippi! wow, that's quite a move.

good luck with that one. Will you miss the beach?

Actually, it's great! I'll be closer to family, since I have an aunt about an hour and a half from there, and I will be even closer to the beach.... a better beach at that. Back on the Gulf of Mexico, which is the body of water I grew up on! I'm excited!!
