1. I once staged a fight with my English teacher in which he pushed me to the ground.
2. I once donated my $5 of pocket money to the Communist Party of Australia (they don't make memes of me with left-wing political figures for no reason.)
3. A teacher has described me as "soulless".

#1 is true (but i phrased it badly). I actually fake pushed him, and he fake punched me and I jumped back intot he arms of my friends who sort of dropped me. It was for an English task.

#3 is true, a teacher has called me "soulless" (more than once actually) and said I would make a good accountant (no offence any accountants here, her words not mine).

#2 is in fact false, I actually donated to Socialist Alliance. ;;D

Kidding, I didn't donate to anyone.

I think 3 is the lie
#3 is false?
Yar, #3 was false. I don't hoard and though I'm not really a social butterfly, I don't mind being out in the world these days.

(I did hitch-hike to the concert and back again--and got in a power of sh1t from 1) the nun that picked me up on the way home and 2) the polytech school because I hadn't called in and they thought I mighta been dead in a ditch.
I was also being paid to clean motel units when I was 7 and had two jobs by the time I was 13. Waitressing in a restaurant and working in a retail shop... actually at one point while I was in school, I had 3 jobs--2 retail and the restaurant one.)

A nun picked you up hitchhiking? :icon_eek:

I flew over the space shuttle on the way to Florida

I loved matchbox cars

I had a kissing contest
Yeah, a Nun... she wasn't very pleased with me for hitchhiking alone and took me all the way back to my school so that I wouldn't get picked up by "some murdering nutcase". I didn't have the heart to tell her that I hitchhiked most weekends. She was pretty cool, actually.

Okay, I also want to participate.

1. I have four cousins, two of them are my neighbors, we live in the same house. And other two I have not seen for years and we do not talk.

2. My favorite genre of music is jazz

3. I wanted to become a journalist or a psychologist

1) I've broken each of my little fingers in exactly the same way, but at different times.

2) I taught myself to write aged 2.

3) I have one sib - a sister - and despite having a 164 IQ, I'm the "dumb" one.

Sorry, Dana Jean, Scratch and Skimom2.
#1 is the lie. I have broken both little fingers, but one was a clean break at the second knuckle and other was a greenstick between knuckles 1 and 2. Both were goalkeeping incidents.

For #2, as I 've mentioned elsewhere before, my grandma had already drummed the alphabet into me. I had my primers as visual aids. I knew what each letter sounded like in speech. The rest was...not easy, but I stuck at it. (And did my parents ever cop it when I started school! I was 4-5 by then and had been reading and writing for 2-3 years, so the teachers had to put me doing more maths while everyone else 'caught up'. The trouble really started when I widdled all over (very) basic maths... Not literally! :biggrin2:)
And #3, her measured IQ stands at 180. I'm in the 'genius' bracket and the 'thick' one at the same time.
We now reckon we were adopted. ;;D

I was a second baseman. Used to watch the batters run and then toss the ball underhand that they hit to my friend the first baseman to get em out just in time that they thought they would make it.

My mom drove 15 of us in a volkswagon beetle for cheerleading one day.

I am going to California with an aching in my heart.
