1. I have had the exact same thing for breakfast for the last 39 days - 2 bananas and a glass of milk. 
2. When I find myself on a lonely road I drive on the left hand side as if I were in England.
3. My favorite t.v. shows are all cartoons...Futurama, Family Guy, Venture Bros & the Simpsons.
4. I wear the same shirt every Friday.
5. I am the only one I know who likes Prog, which automatically makes me weird in my neck of the woods.

1. I sometimes watch TV with my head upside down (seriously!). I find it relaxing. Confused
2. I may seem like a completely ordinary person at first (behaviour, clothes etc.), but when people really get to know me, they often tell me I'm downright weird.
3. I'm 19, and while most people my age drink alcohol on a very regular basis (at least here in Finland), I do it approx. once a year. I just don't need it.
4. I never eat breakfast - even when I'm hungry! Confused (well, very rarely)
5. I have an outstanding memory concerning things I'm interested in; music, books, movies - I only need to hear the name of an actor/musician once, and I'll remember it for months, but I can't get myself to remember anything that's actually useful.

Music is very useful. Wink

But yeah, that's kind of like me.  If there is a band I like, I can memorize their entire discography (well, unless they're really prolific) along with release years just by looking at it once.

3. I hate talking on the phone.

4. If I didn't make my bed one morning, I'll make it before get in to go to sleep at night.

1. I have no life, the fact that I'm here proves this (this applies to all velveteersWink).
2. I am both very neet and very slopy (not quite at the same time but near enough).
3. I think Chris Squire is a dull bassist.
4. I am very interested in Aeronautical Engineering (Arodynamics in other words).
5. I pretty much listen only to prog.
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

Not to toot my own horn, but:
 
1. I like to take 3 hour+ walks by myself, especially at night, deliberately trying to scare myself
2. Sometimes I sit in a very conjumbled position, staring into space for long periods at a time (Sometimes drumming on some sort of surface, which I can never stop doing)
3. I think industrial wastelands are absolutely beautiful (actually almost anything could be beautiful to me)
4. I dream of engaging in sexual intercourse with a ghost (although having sex with a real person would be nice, tooLOL)
5. I like prog as well as the new Justin Timberlake single "Sexyback"Thumbs Up
 
Amongst other things...

I know someone who says he was sodomised by a ghost. Perhaps we can arrange a paranormal invesitgator for you and said ghost to meet Wink

1.- I'm very into "serious" cinema (Fellini, etc.), but I never miss and episode of "Gilmore Girls".
2.- On the same track, I also end up watching every possible romantic movie.
3.- There are many albums that still haven't heard completely. I'm talking about albums that have been in my collection for more than 5 years.
4.- I hate working with male individuals.
5.- I wake up at 4:30 a.m. 2 or 3 times every week, with ideas for stories that I'm trying to edit right now.

I guess I shouldn't have revealed that much. I'm ashamed now; don't look at me.

I wouldn't feel ashamed of that if I were you, your only 16, secondly the media puts a lot of pressure on kids your age TV shows, etc, your not lame, don't be ashamed with who you are, as long as you know who you are thats what matters, lame people are the ones that conform to society and fit the mould and have no sense of themselves.Wink
 
Ha, you've got me all wrong, I'm not one of those people obsessed with physical aspects of a relationship at all. It's just I've never even had a relationship in any remote form, and all of my friends have at least had short several day stints. I dunno, I just couldn't think of anything too weird, so that came to mind

1. I make "music" with weird sound effects (see at www.myspace.com/doctor13)

2.I've never gone out with, kissed, or even hugged a girl

3. I once performed a joke skit that consisted only of me saying "existentialism" and "I am bohemia" whilst my friends did strange body movements and finally we all dropped to the ground. It was in front of a bunch of 12 year olds and their parents.

4.I can fall asleep to almost any style of music, even Opeth

5. I cannot think of more, sorry that I have a lame, boring life

    
I have a comment for you: leave the computer and go hunt girls until one of them let you catch her.

My biggest problem: no opportunities. There isn't a single girl that will talk to me in the whole damned school, even if I try to, they'll make like a minute of small talk then ignore me.
