1. I'm exceptionally good at close quarters combat.
2. I'm a good shot some of the time, decent most of the time, mainly with a crossbow and a rifle. I'm working on expanding the firearms thing.
3. I can tie a knot in a cherry stem with my tongue. What? I can.
4. I'd make a great personal shopper. Really. I can shop.
5. And put together ensembles. That's a talent, right? I have a good eye for color and texture and what works and what doesn't.
6. I can type fast. Not super fast but fast enough.
7. Um. I can run up a wall and flip? You know, like you'd see in a kung fu movie?
8. I'm a good bartender.
9. I can take a punch as well as I can throw one. Which, in case you were wondering? Is very, very well.
10. ...Yeah, that's all I got. I don't really consider myself a talented individual.

1) My grandmother picking me up from the ground after I fell out of a tree in our front yard. And my complex with heights was born.
2) My mom actually showing up for a birthday party. When I turned seven.
3) Her calling on every other birthday and telling me why she couldn't be there.
4) Asking my grandmother about my dad and her telling me she'd explain it better when I was older.
5) Her explaining it when I was older.
6) My mom and my grandmother fighting every time she showed up.
7) My mom trying to take me away from grandmother when I was ten. I hid under the bed and wouldn't come out. She tried to get her boyfriend to pull me out. I bit him. Suddenly he wasn't so keen on the idea of having a daughter.
8) My teacher explaining to me why my friends kept having to move away. I hate to say it, but I kind of learned not to get so close to the military kids after that.
9) Kicking Eli Parker in the balls for messing with Kenny Douglas in the hallway. (No, I wasn't a violent kid. That was the only time I ever did anything like that. But Parker was a self-entitled dickhead and Kenny was a sweetheart that couldn't help that he weighed 90 pounds dripping wet. I was having a really bad day and he was being a bully. I went off. I never got in trouble for it, probably because he didn't tell anyone.)
10) The day I realized how sick my grandmother really was. She didn't go to work. She always went to work.That's pretty much when my 'childhood' ended.

2) A pair of these.
3) A pair of these.
4) A pair of these--seriously, those? Those are what shoes look like in heaven. Except they might not be red. I dunno. Whatever. They're gorgeous.
5) An iPod touch.
6) A new coat. A very warm coat.
7) Sweaters and/or hoodies. Lots of very warm sweaters and hoodies.
8) Books.
9) New jeans, preferably True Relgion or Luckys--I burn through the jeans, people. They're casualties of slaying.
10) Earrings. Um, I'm not picky? So long as they don't dangle.

Current Mood: tired

Bear in mind that I cannot have tomatoes or tomato sauce on my pizza. This pretty much means that if I want a pizza I have to make it myself. Also, I do not put all these on one pizza. I don't like too many toppings on one pizza. Too busy. Busy only works with ice cream.

1) Cheese.
2) Mushrooms.
3) Spinach.
4) Black olives (green olives should only ever be used in martinis).
5) Eggplant.
6) Pineapple.
7) Jalapenos.
8) Hummus, though I dunno if this is really a topping? You can use it instead of tomato or white sauce (hey, don't knock it til you've tried it).
9) Pepperoni.
10) Bacon.

I know. I'm weird.

1) I have deep set abandonment issues that I cannot seem to shake. I expect to be left at any moment. Every argument or misunderstanding, I brace myself for things to end.
2) I make things a bigger deal than they have to be. I blow things terribly out of proportion.
3) My life and my future are never going to be completely my own. I am a Slayer. Even if I stop slaying, I will always be a Slayer.
4) I'm going to die. Most likely, it will be very, very messy and very soon, and the worst part is, I'll be ready for it when it happens. You can only fight the good fight for so long before it wears you down, and you want to be finished.
5) I'm emotional. I wear my heart on my sleeves and get my feelings hurt very easily.
6) I'm insecure. Terribly, painfully insecure. Like I said, I expect to be left.
7) I'm moody. I can be on top of the world one minute and then for no explanation or at least for no reason that will make much sense to anyone but me, I'll crash and crash hard.
8) I don't want kids. Granted, this won't bother some guys, but a lot, it would. I don't want kids, I don't want to be a mother. I refuse to tempt fate by even trying. It's not like you can take the kid back if it doesn't work out.
9) I don't trust what I feel in relationships. I don't trust love. As happy as it can make me I will always be expecting things to fall apart.
10) Eventually I will try to push the people I love away, before they can hurt me too badly. I'm afraid of giving someone the power to break me beyond repair.

Current Mood: pessimistic

1) Read.
2) Hot baths.
3) iPod and meditative music thing with the harp and the rainstorm in the background.
4) Curl up on the couch and watch a movie.
5) Sex. The unhurried, take your time kind.
6) Play video games. Something other than Halo. I take Halo a bit too seriously.
7) Have tea or hot chocolate.
8) Cook or bake something.
9) Katas.
10) Yoga.

1) Graduation. I mean, really, the best thing about it was leaving it.

2) Cheerleading. It was only for half a semester senior year, but it was fun, and at that time, I needed distracting.

3) Drama. The course, I mean.

4) English and Lit. They were my best subjects.

5) Spanish. Talk about an easy class.

6) Mrs. Sutphin, the Spanish teacher. She was nutty and fun.

7) Buying new school supplies. It's stupid, but I just loved having fresh notebooks and pencils and folders.

8) Senior year, because it was so darn easy to just skate through it. All the hard classes were over and done with.

9) Physics, just because the instructor was cool. He took us on a field trip to an amusement park to study the physics of roller coasters.

10) Friday night football games. We Texans take our high school football seriously.

Current Mood: nostalgic

10 fictional characters that you'd like to meet and what one question you would ask them.

1) Wonder Woman--"What do you have against pants?"
2) Sara from The Labyrinth--"Are you insane?!"
3) Michael Scofield--"Did that massive tattoo not hurt like hell?"
4) Raistlin Majere--There'd be no question. I'd just give him a hug. I'm telling you, all that unpleasantness could've been avoided if someone would've just hugged the poor guy.
5) Arya Stark--"Think there's a remote chance you won't grow up incredibly scary and damaged?"
6) Elizabeth Swann--"Are you insane?!"
7) Rory Gilmore--"Um thank you for not marrying that idiot and choosing career over the pretty but vapid and really really stupid boy thereby allowing me to end the abysmal final season of your show with an actual molecule of respect left for you, wanna get coffee and talk about books?"
8) Carrie Bradshaw--"Shop with me, I beg of you."
9) Anita Blake--No question. I'd just really like to hit her.
10) Bella Swan--See above. Only not hit so much as shake violently for a minute.
