If You Really Knew Me...

In an effort to get to know each other and trust each other, I'd like you to take a little risk and post five things that you'd like other people in the class to know about you. The quirkier/more unique and personal, the better.

Here are my five:

1. I am a terrible sport and throw a fit when I lose--especially when it comes to board and card games.

2. I have a phobia of people throwing up.

3. I refuse to eat fruit when it's suspended in gelatinous substances.

4. Every night before I go to bed, I go into Sam's room and quietly thank him for being alive.

5. I really want to be writer, but I've never submitted anything to publication because I'm afraid of my work being rejected.

  1. 1. I aim to see the sunrise once or more a year.

    2. I prefer to be early than on time.

    4. I have a phobia of jumping from heights.

    5. I have a lot of patience.
