20 things about me
i'm bored and don't feel like doing a "real" entry, so instead, here are 20 facts about me. enjoy!
1)full name: ha! like i'm going to reveal that!
2)diaryland name: emeraldtiger
3)birthday: may 15th
4)age: 28
5)birthplace: USA (an East coast state)
6)gender: female
7)place of residence: USA in a state along the East coast (mid-atlantic region)
8)highest level of education attained: master's degree
9)undergraduate major: english w/ concentration in american lit.
10)undergraduate minor: psychology
11)hair color: black (actually my stylist told me it's technically not true black but instead very dark brown)...but it's easier to just say i have black hair
12)eye color: dark brown
13)i am nearsighted (very), so wear contact lenses or glasses (i alternate)
14)height: a dynamic 5'2
15)weight: don't go there.....well, okay, i guess it's no big deal: as of this morning 113 lbs.
16)shoe size: 6 and 1/2 (US)--which is like a UK size 4, i think (i have some shoes from the UK so that's how i know)
17)piercings: just my ears, baby! **i kind of had a nose ring in college but it was a phase** i've changed a lot since then...maybe i'll write about it in a future entry
18)tattoos: none; i myself don't want any (permanent ones, anyway), although i actually do think they can be really cool on other people...as long as they're not overdone and don't cover someone's entire body--you know...like a whole arm covered w/ designs....and as long as they're not heart shaped w/ your significant other's name on your breast or whatever. that's tacky. sorry if i'm offending anyone!
19)lefty or righty? neither--anyone who has been reading me or seen my profile knows i'm ambidextrous...i do some things left-handed and other things right-handed, so it evens out. there are some tasks i can do comfortably w/ either hand. it intrigues a lot of people, although i myself take this "gift" for granted.
20)ever dyed my hair?
surprisingly, yes. i used to touch up my hair in college w/ dark reddish burgundy/garnet tones, although never did, nor wanted to change my actual hair color;
also in 8th grade i bleached a section of my bangs--and am actually admitting to you all that it was sort of to impress this skater boy i was in love with. it was pretty hideous and you don't want to know more. no one should have to see what that looked like!
