Things I wouldn’t admit publicly…(until now)
November 12, 2007
My first MP3 player, four years ago, was an iriver. When my Aunt questioned my choice over the “new Apple iPod,” I defended my purchase with some lame explanation of the iPod’s supposed fast-draining batteries.
I got a lacrosse scholarship to the first college I attended. I couldn’t handle the commitment and gave it up after a month of daily 5am and 9pm practices.
I miss high school. A lot, sometimes.
I’ve kept relatively civil relationships with all of my ex-boyfriends, except for one, who had all the bad qualities of George Costanza and all the good qualities of ringworm.
I still don’t completely understand the rules of football.
I worked as a maid at a nursing home for a summer. Since then you’d be hard-pressed to find something that grosses me out.
I used to be irritated at my mom’s anxiety of riding in cars going anything over the speed limit. Since turning 21, I’ve developed an irrational fear of being a passenger in any vehicle.
I don’t like Christmas. You didn’t know that, right?

I dont really get football either.
Maid at a nursing home? That mustve been an experience.

An IRIVER?!
How were you even able to enter the Apple store after that? I imagine there was some kind of forcefield.
“…and all the good qualities of ringworm.”
Hilarity!

The ironic thing is that the iRiver is now the choice of Podcast interviewers everywhere, unless you have a zillion dollars.
Ringworm? Awesome.

Ashley - I remember checking out with my MacBook and the Apple guy saying something like, “Welcome to real technology” or something equally cheesarific.
Woy - I did not know that, but it makes sense with the voice-in capabilities.

Hmm…I’ve never heard of this “iriver”.
I miss high school too. And outside of this post I will never admit that again.

I dislike Christmas as well. But, a lot of people get offended when I say that.

Hahaha, I don’t understand football as well…and miss high school like most us…but I love Christmas! ;)

And why now?
Being homeschooled, I guess I could say I miss highschool, but really I just mean I miss my family.

does this really count as public?

Michael - I guess it was just the whole being thrown head first into responsibility thing. Makes me miss the freedom.
Or maybe I really just don’t like working.
SAFFE - Touché.

all the good qualities of ringworm? So you could eat whatever you wanted around him and not gain a pound? Awesome.

Tiff II - Wow, I’m really impressed that you were able to find a plus side of ringworm, but now I need to think of something worse. Syphillis? SARS?

High School was fun–where else could you spend 7+ hours every weekday hanging out with your friends?
My confession: TiVo scares me, and I don’t know why.

The ringworm quote is priceless!
I am not a fan of Christmas either and I admitted to a law professor I didn’t think the internet would catch on. So embarrassing.

I don’t think there is any plus side to SARS, unless you’re into stylish masks.

“I’ve kept relatively civil relationships with all of my ex-boyfriends, except for one, who had all the bad qualities of George Costanza and all the good qualities of ringworm.”
This made me laugh out loud.
