Five things you might not know about me

Veronica “tagged” me with this thing a few weeks ago, but I had the hardest time coming up with a list. I mean, do I really want the world to know my “hidden” side? But then I realized I could just softball the question here and give the real scoop when people get to know me. Yes.

1. I deeply dislike confrontation. If a waiter gets my order wrong, I don’t go out of my way to tell him; I usually just eat whatever I’m handed. I’m getting a lot better at standing up for myself, but most of the time I let the small stuff slide.
2. This is a little difficult to describe, but I don’t like “mistaken identity” TV shows/movies. As in, someone is mistaken as someone else, and is thus punished because of it. It’s just too freaking painful to watch.
3. I close my eyes during scary movies. Either that, or I fast forward over the scary bits.
4. I did not get into drinking alcohol until I was around 25 or 26 years old. I’m still very cautious about it actually — I only drink in social situations, and I try to only drink beer and wine. I stay the hell away from spirits and hard alcohol like whiskey.
5. I don’t know how to style my hair. I just.. don’t know (This is after I asked a hair stylist how to do it, she showed it to me, and I tried to do it myself, but, uh, I still don’t get it.). Which explains why I just brush it and stick a pin on it and call it a day. Sometimes I put some pomade on, and that’s as fancy as it gets. I think I must’ve missed Hair Styling 101 when I was a teenager. Also, my hair styling time needs to take less than 2 minutes to do, or I won’t do it consistently. I am so indifferent about my hair, it’s ridiculous.

Man, where did that hair thing come from? Weird.
