I've been tagged!

Oh boy....

The Rules:

Once you’ve been tagged, you have to write a blog with 10 weird, random, facts, habits or goals about yourself. At the end, choose 6 people to be tagged, list their names & why you tagged them. Don’t forget to leave them a comment saying “You’re it!” & to go read your blog. You cannot tag the person that tagged you, so since you’re not allowed to tag me back; let me know when you are done so I can go read YOUR weird/random/odd facts, habits and goals.

Okay, let's see here....


1. While I love reading in general, I absolutely LOVE romance novels...you know those cheesy Harlequin ones...yeah, I'm not really sure how I got into those but I have collected quite a few over the past several years. If you're ever interested, let me know! ;)

2. I have an 83 year old roommate. Sometimes I think it is more interesting then when I lived with my 3 girlfriends in BG. Everyday is a new adventure!

3. I can't seem to shake the habit of biting my nails. I have been doing it probably since I came out of the womb and for as much as I try I can't quit. It's not even a nervous habit anymore. I do it just to do it. My grandmother use to put hot sauce on my fingers to try and get me to quit but it would just make me angry and I would still bite them anyways.

4. Speaking of my grandma, I was raised by my maternal grandmother until I was 16. Then, I moved in with my dad. I decided it was time for my grandma and step-grandpa to live on their own--along with myself, they also raised 2 of my sisters.

5. And speaking of siblings, I have 7 brothers and sisters! Wow, right? Well, they are all half-siblings. Regardless, they are family. Ready for the list?! In order we are: Monica (me), Kyana, Krystal, Holly, Erin, Chelsea, Alin, and Zeratus. Holly, Erin, and Chelsea are my dad and step-mother's children. Kyana, Krystal, Alin, and Zeratus are my mother's children. My parents were never married. I am what they call a love child. :)

6. I am deathly afraid of spiders. I can't even look at them...they are sooooooooo gross. Too many legs and too many eyes!!

7. I love octopus! Eating it, I mean. It is very common with the Puerto Rican folk. We call it "pulpo" which means octopus in Spanish, naturally. Some people may get grossed out but if you like calamari, which is SQUID, then you would probably like "pulpo".

8. I am working on earning my masters in mild/moderate intervention. I will be taking courses at Lorain County Community College. They have a partnership with Ashland University and while I will the classes at LCCC, I will recieve my degree from Ashland.

9. I tend to be a little OCD about locking doors at night. I lock them and check them at least 3 or 4 four times before I go to bed.

10. I like to put my iPod on when I am stressed out and dance around my room. You know, like the commercials... :) It's a great work out too.


Hope you enjoy it...I can't really tag anyone though since everyone has already been tagged!!


Adios!
