1. I hate broccoli.
   
2. I have webbed toes. Yes, really.
   
3. I went to Catholic school for four years. It was not traumatic. I really liked it there.
   
4. If there were money in it, I'd probably just stay in school forever. I enjoy academia.
   
5. I am almost always late. I keep trying to fix this, but I mostly fail.
   
6. I told my high school guidance counselor I wanted to be a zamboni driver.
   
7. I used to watch The Little Mermaid almost every day. (I was five.) For my sixth birthday, I had a The Little Mermaid themed party.
   
8. I've only left North America once. I went to London for ten days and thought it was completely awesome.
   
9. I can't leave the house in the morning without eating breakfast. Unless, of course, I'm leaving to go out to breakfast.
   
10. In high school, I was a page at the public library, and I was very particular about books being in the proper order. I can't be bothered to put my own books in any kind of order. They're arranged by size because they fit best on the shelves that way.
    
11. I studied Italian for four years.
    
12. I want to live abroad sometime in my life.
    
13. I am completely unorganized.
    
14. I spend most of my time looking at a computer screen.
    
15. I am the last cylon. Okay, not really.
    
16. I really want some ice cream right now.
    

I started the first five items with the letter "i", then I couldn't change it because it would look wrong. Clearly I am insane.

I think half my flist has done this already, so I just tag anyone else who's interested.

Oh, hell, no! Definitely not library school forever! I'd study English or linguistics or Italian, maybe take some classes in history or anthropology or sociology, but no more of this justifying our existence as scholarship.

I've thought about some sort of thematic arrangement, but I just can't be bothered. I stack textbooks on the bottom shelf where I don't have to look at them.

I put my textbooks on the bottom shelf too. Of course, now they have crept up to include the bottom 3 shelves. :S

That reminds me now that I have to try to get someone to buy last semester's books off me. Somehow I don't think I'll ever be reading Introduction to Computers 2009 again. Not that I read it for class, either.

I know the feeling. I should have sold most of mine. Oh well. At least I can reuse my cataloguing textbooks this semester.

[alexiscartwheel.livejournal.com]

You're taking the second cataloging class? I would probably do that if we had one here, but, alas, there isn't.

[carrotgirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm taking it. Not really looking forward to it though...

Making the best of lame choices?
