SO. Looks like the 'ol challenge is back up...except this time, instead of 15 things, there are now 100! Thanks Dilated for always raising the bar. I got challenged a while ago, and I hope I don't get disqualified for being late...

Hmmm...shall we begin?

2.) But I'll never be mean to someone, no matter how annoying they are.
3.) I LOVE playing the piano.
4.) I'm learning the play the guitar.
5.) I want to compose a movie theme song.
6.) I LOVE JUMP ROPE. I love the sport, I love the people, and I love the love that it spreads amongst those people. I've met some of my best friends because of this sport. I wouldn't give up the camaraderie or community for anything in the world.
7.) I hate feeling like people can look at me and think they know anything about me.

9.) But I rarely open up to people, or tell the whole story.
10.) I'm at a crossroads in my life.
11.) I've learned that there are some things we value that we have to let go of...they are just stepping stones on the way to our Personal Legend, and they can't hold us back from realizing a dream.
12.) I can't see myself having kids.
13.) I don't care about marriage. It's all legal junk. I think that if I find someone, I can spend the rest of my life with them and not care about getting married at all.

18.) I just changed all the passwords to my online accounts, and I'm rather excited about getting to type something new.
19.) I always have to return my iPod to the main menu before I set it down...OCD.
20.) I do drink. It's fun.
21.) I have smoked weed. It's also fun. I will probably do it again.

25.) I like being tan, but I only am for about a month.
26.) I think the most hilarious thing in the world is when people are just THEMSELVES.
27.) You can bash on me all you want, but do not bash on my friends. Bad idea.
28.) I have a medical condition called pectus excavatum. It causes the sternum to cave inwards. Sometimes I wish I could just be normal, but I've grown to accept it.
29.) This summer has been a whirlwind of memories...good, bad, and inbetween.
30.) There are certain blogs on this site who I automatically go to when I see their avatar in the "Recently Updated" section.
31.) I actually used to care about the Nutang top 10!
32.) A while ago I realized that I wouldn't trade my life for anybody else's, even with all the shit I've gone through and the rough road ahead. It makes no sense, but it's gotta mean something.

34.) I wish I could actually sing though, that would be great.
35.) By most peoples' standards, I'm WEEEIIIRDDD.

44.) I also used to write a lot. I need to tap into thata again as well...for the same reason.
45.) Sometimes I forget I can be funny if I try.
46.) But most of the time, I get irritated having to try -_-
47.) I really like to cuddle.
48.) Best way to piss me off: be negative.
49.) Best way to make ma happy: appreciate something about me :)

65.) I don't know that I've ever been in love, now that I think about it.

67.) I realize that almost all of these facts start with "I" :)
68.) I kinda miss going to parties.
69.) The best adjective in the world: epic. One day, I hope it can describe something about me.
70.) In elementary school, they'd always say "now kids, just remember that it doesn't matter what other people think of you." Horrible advice.
71.) I tend to get caught up in the moment easily, and then look back and laugh at how sappy I was.
72.) I have crazy dreams. They usually play out like action movies.
73.) My favorites are when I have some sort of super power, which has included flying, flash-freezing, telekenesis, super strength, pyrokinesis, and control over plants.

91.) I used to get super constipated when I was younger...never again.
92.) Hahah oh my gosh I was so ridiculous when I was younger. I like laughing about it
93.) I don't toss around the word "love" very lightly. Sometimes I'll say it to people more as a sign of friendly affection, but I'll avoid it if I can.

#78, #79, #93- I can relate.

And it's about TIME you did this! I've been waiting for you to finish the challenge since... you were challenged!

» randomjunk on 2010-08-18 05:26:50

yeah, I've been waiting too
Of course, it's because your blog is one of the ones that I automatically click on when it comes up as recently updated, no matter what the subject is. As for your 100 things,

14: Do you like being tied down *literally*? ::raises eyebrows::
17: Am I one of them? :D :D :D

» Zanzibar on 2010-08-18 08:59:11

47 I completely agree with. and number 50 I felt the same way lol. and number 97 ... I'm right there with you

re: yes, I'm moving to WA. we're actually looking into the Port Townsend area to live in for at least a year or so because that's where his school is and then when he's done we'll most likely be moving up to Bellingham because that's where my school is. I'll be going to CC while in Port Townsend. hey, maybe we could meet up in Seattle at some point. you'd be the second NuTang person I'll have met in person.
» LostSoul13 on 2010-08-18 09:37:13

I know I am!
It's actually become more noticeably fragmented throughout senior year, but yeah we're a solid group of four that stays pretty much together as the group expands.

I DID read your 100 earlier today, but I didn't have time to respond (I'm moving in to college!) and right now I'm pretty freakin' tired. But I'll try to get back to you, OK? haha.
» middaymoon on 2010-08-18 11:38:15

#26 for me depends on that person's personality cause more often they turn out to be jerks.

#35 I'm kinda there too.

#70 - FTW!!!

Btw, ever thought that you might be slightly dyslexic?
» Nuttz on 2010-08-19 01:28:56

Epicurean. By nature of grammatical compositry, epic.

Having watched Lost, I can tell you it was a waste of time.
» dave on 2010-08-19 11:57:12

re: lol the other NuTang person I met was lazypuppy. Kristina and her family came down to visit Vegas for a weekend {I think; might have been longer} and I met up with her at the Fremont Street Experience. lol Greg was being cranky cuz he was tired and it was late, but otherwise he was cute.
» LostSoul13 on 2010-08-19 06:21:58

18 - I really should do that, too. My passwords have been the same since I created most of them. As in years. =S
31 - Me, too! Then I decided real life was more important than checking this one internet site all the time.
39 - What is it? (Or did you already say?.... Can't remember! >_
» invisible on 2010-08-19 10:15:54

77 - I feel like the nerve message for "cry" in my head is hypersensitive.

I could always show you a few tricks. You could probably just pick up a wood carving knife and start carving up a block of wood. Everything else is just based on your imagination.

He's Most Active because I was gone for a few days while my boyfriend visited and I was too lazy to make up the difference. :P

Re:
Yea.. I whine like a bitch.. especially on Facebook cause there is nothing better for me to do.

This is my last year, at this time next year, I'll be job-hunting!
» Nuttz on 2010-08-21 11:50:24

Okay, I confess: I was searching for "DUDES RUNNING AROUND IN THE FOREST COMPLETELY CLAD IN RUBBER AND THERE IS NO EXPLANATION AS TO WHY". Exact phrase, I swear.
