OK, so I can’t claim the award because I’m not going to post this to seven other bloggers. Sorry, no dice. That being said, since it was requested and I don’t seem to mind, I’m going to post seven quick tidbits about myself.
- I am a Scorpio and the sign rising over the horizon at my birth was also Scorpio. So my inner and outer self have that characteristic. My moon was in Pisces meaning my emotional nature is Pisces-like (whatever that means). Yes, my vitals are all in water-signs. Would indicate that my emotions play a big role in my life. Very true.
- I have helped to organize and emcee orientation week at university. Time leading up to it was probably one of the hardest years of my life. The week itself was completely hellish. Those people that I’ve ushered in have since graduated.
- I’ve had three cars: an Oldsmobile Cutless Ciera, a Pontiac Sunfire, and a Toyota Corolla. They all had spoilers. I now can’t picture myself with a spoiler-less car. Such cars kind of look bare, don’t they?
- I have notoriously flat feet. I always used that as an excuse as to why I just wasn’t meant to run. Who knew that I’d be running half marathons?
- I bake relatively frequently. I often take pictures of what I made. I’m really not that bad of a baker. I’ve gotten good reviews for a lot of stuff that I’ve come up with.
- I’ve been to Japan twice. I’m pretty sure I won’t be heading back any time soon. That being said, I find the memorization of Kanji to be fascinating. I’d like to take on Mandarin Chinese as my next challenge.
- According to Last.fm, my music tastes tend to be: rock, indie, female vocalists, pop, alternative, Canadian artists. I really like quirky stuff, hence my propensity for Alanis and Björk.

Sometimes I don’t like doing the surveys or anything that really ask questions about yourself. Sometimes I can answer them and other time I’m too lazy to what is asked. And sometimes I don’t really know what to say…like something could be interesting to me whereas it is not to someone else.

I have never understood the appeal of Bjork.

I’m sure you can still claim the award! The internet police won’t hunt you down, right?

Kelvin: Truth be told, I was struggling to come up with seven interesting points. I mean, what kind of things do I want to include in an ordinal list such that these things get highlighted. Writing a blog, I’m revealing a lot about myself anyway, right? In the end, if someone doesn’t find a point that I wrote to be interesting, well…no harm done.
Raluca: Yup, had that car until November 2001 when I got into that horrible collision. Sad looking car after the fact, that one.
wegrit: Err…hard to pinpoint why I like her. She doesn’t have the greatest voice and is frequently eccentric, though I don’t think it’s for the sake of eccentricity per se. What I do know is that she her voice has a great range and seems to convey a lot of emotion. The music she makes is pretty avant garde. I kind of admire that she has the courage to go to places in her music that a lot of people won’t go. However, yes, she can be a nut.
Erin: Hah. Well since you have indirectly given permission I will claim the award (I guess). No, I’m sure the Internet police are a bit more busy catching other types of people, yes?
