Tagged... 5 things you'll know now...

So Sarah (one of my fellow STINT team members) has "tagged" me... which means I need to come up with 5 things that no one knows about me and post them, so... let me see, (Sarah I'll try and make these good seeing as we'll be roomies for a year):

1. I'm horrified of mice/rats- I can handle bugs, snakes etc. but the little mice absolutely give me the creeps. I think it dates back to the "Great Mouse Detective" movie by Walt Disney.... anyone seen that cartoon and then at the end the villain, "Rattigan" or whatever his name was goes all crazy on the London Clock Tower... anyone.... anyone.... but my zoology prof thought it was hilarious in the lab when we had to work with rats, no fun at all.

2. When I was little and my brother and I were playing, I would simply sit on him until I got what I wanted... man I wasn't a nice older sister... but he can kick my butt now without trying, although he never really needs to. :)

3. I'm not a very confrontational person. I tend to run away from situations in which there could be conflict and would rather let myself get stomped all over than offend someone else. But, I'm aware of this which means I'm realizing that conflict can actually have good results and really build relationships and that they're not all bad.

4. I've always wanted to live in England. Even before I had actually been there I simply wanted to go to England. I loved it when I was there 2 years ago and somewhere down the road I'd like to go back, whether to work on a campus there with C4C or go back for my masters... but we'll see what happens...

5. I hated being called "lins" for the longest time. I'm not sure why but it would annoy me when people didn't call me lindsey. But, I'm completely over it and sign everything with my nickname. In high school all my close friends called me LD.... so whatever works is cool with me.

I think thats all. It took me a while to come up with those...
