Weddingbee

1) I love the smell of playdo, even as an adult.

2) I have to wear a bra to sleep or else I feel naked.

3) I have dreams that I leave the house without shoes on.

4) I must eat every 2-3 hours except when I’m sleeping.

5) I like to people watch.

6) I don’t enjoy eating apples but I love apple juice.

And here goes… six weird things about Miss Plumeria (but isn’t it all relative? ).

1. I sound somewhat like a little girl when I talk (voice not content, thankyouverymuch). Unless I have a cold… then I have a husky sexy woman voice. Not.

2. I was so shamefully awkward during my junior high years (braces, telescope glasses, large Disney character T-shirts and leggings with knee socks come to mind) that my MOH calls me her “ugly duckling” til this day. I suppose that’s a compliment in disguise.

3. I say certain words differently, which is the cause of much good-natured teasing by my friends. For instance, I sometimes say “BAIG” instead of “BAHG” when I pronounce, say, “shopping bag” and “draw-wing” instead of “draw-ing.” … I guess I sound better on paper.

4. My pet peeves include soap scum around the top of my dishwashing liquid soap dispenser top, drinks left too close to tabletop edges, and toe marks left from wear in my sandals.

Since it seems like the readers like the little “Interesting things about me” posts, I thought I’d post a similar one. So, I have for you the 7 reasons Mr. Kiwi is the best person for me.

1.) He has hands softer than mine. Drives me crazy, especially because he works with his hands DAILY. Sooo smooth. Soo jealous, but feels so nice.

2.) He rubs my tush to help himself fall asleep. It’s very cute.

3.) He kisses me back even when he’s sleeping.

4.) Mr. Kiwi gives me cash for lunch, even when I don’t need it or ask for it.

5.) To de-stress, he needs to cuddle. I love it.

Um, OK, here goes…

1) I like to burp.

2) I used to have purple hair (and occasionally hot pink)

3) I like to pee with the door open — too much information? Mrs. Bee said, weird and I think that qualifies.

4) Before we dated, I pulled a prank on Mr. Lily where I decorated the right-hand side of his car with porn (not alone, with a friend). He couldn’t see it and got pulled over by the cops. Oops.

5) The movie Miss Congeniality is like crack for me. It’s totally out of character, but I love that flick. I have seen it 5,783 times.

6) In college I won a burrito eating contest against a male friend. I didn’t feel too good afterwards, but dammit, I won!!!!!!!!!!

1. I love love to cook and eat really good food - my favorite snack is popcorn on the stove with truffle oil and parm cheese, but sometimes I just can’t resist velveeta and rotel tomatoes melted with tostitos!

2. I am a camera junkie - I take pictures of anything and everything - it drives Mr. Raspberry nuts.

3. I like to eat good summer tomatoes like an apple and keep the salt and pepper grinders by my side to keep applying - I know, weird.

4. I enjoy consuming alcoholic beverages out of my camelback during the summer - people think you are drinking water, and you can take it anywhere with you.

1. I was on Teen Jeopardy when I was in high school. Yes, the real one on TV. No, I didn’t win… but I came close (2nd place). I used to get fan mail from all over the country from this… people have a strange love for Jeopardy. And when I went to college orientation that summer, some kid swore he knew me (we’d never met), then once we got on the elevator, he goes “YOU WERE ON TEEN JEOPARDY!!!” loud enough for everyone to hear. Fun times.

2. I can raise one eyebrow, like The Rock. I read about it when I was a kid and thought it would be a neat trick. Sooooo… I trained myself to do it. I’d sit in front of the mirror and raise my eyebrows while holding one down. Kinda weird in theory, but it worked.

3. I’ve read Gone With the Wind (and its sequel Scarlett) more than 30 times. It’s my favorite story.

4. I was my high school’s mascot. We were the Vikings. I’ve never seen a black Viking before… but it was cool nonetheless.

5. I have a freakish aversion to people touching my back or neck. It really makes me freak out a little bit.

6. I’m multiracial, with my mom descending from various European ethnic groups and part Puerto Rican. My dad’s side is black and Native American (they thought). I just found out last weekend that we’re not part Native American, we’re part Chinese.

[1] I cannot whistle. At all.

[2] I don’t like eating certain foods because you have to use your hands, and they’re greasy or messy. In other words, I’m lazy. For example, fried chicken, El Pollo Loco or any other build-your-own fajita type things (even if utensils are provided), etc. But then I don’t mind eating Ethiopian, Indian, or Thai sticky rice + accompaniments with my hands. OK, never mind. I guess I don’t mind for food that is yummy enough to merit getting my hands dirty.

[3] I used to eat sticks of butter when I was very young. I mentioned this to a handful of people in college, and now the entire East Coast knows.

[4] I pet our super smooth, ultra white paper at the office. It’s so smooth and soft! Like a baby’s butt. OK, maybe not, but you get the idea.

[5] I always eat my blue m&m’s, brown reese’s pieces, and red skittles last.

[6] Really spicy salsa mixed with sour cream knocks my socks off, even if it looks like throw up.

Hmm… 4 of 6 are about food, but of course.

1. I am 25 and have never been drunk in my life. I do not drink, have not taken any drugs with the exception of medicine (which I never really take as well).

2. I am allergic to calamari. I did not find this out until last year.

3. I can’t fold my tongue into a taco like everyone else in the whole entire world. I believe BOTH your parents have to not be able to do this trait in order for you not to be able to. So sad…..

4. I have a butt fetish. I like to smack people on the butt. Even people I hardly know. I can’t help it. One day, someone will get terribly offended and I’ll have a sexual harassment law suit on my hands.

5. I can cry waterworks on command. It scares the hell out of my friends who insist that there’s no way I’m faking and try to get me to talk about my feelings for an hour.

6. I have clothes in my closet ranging from size 0 to 11. Yes, I have been both those sizes and everything in between.

Wow…..random……I love it!

Since you guys think I’m hella cool haha, and want to know more…

Six Weird Things About Me:

1.) My first and last names are colors - also the character of a children’s series. In fact, the character even has the same MIDDLE name. Spooky.

2.) I used to eat dirt - a lot. And yes, I liked it. I was a vegetarian, I needed MINERALS, man.

3.) I can touch my tongue to my nose, sometimes it makes my jaw hurt. Despite what you may think, no, it isn’t attractive.

4.) I had cataracts in both eyes at 19/20 years old. I had to wear the super cool black mega sunglasses. And I mean that sarcastically.

5.) I had a tail. Just kidding! I only have one dimple. It’s in my right cheek and the bane of my existence.

6.) My high school nickname (not chosen by me) was “Knobs”. Guess what that means. At least they were more creative than using “Jugs”. Like Miss Strawberry, I was also teased in junior high for being flatchested. I guess they forget easily.

That’s Kiwi in a nutshell!

#1 I love Neil Diamond.

#2. I don’t like confrontation, but I’m good at it.

#3 I was teased for being flat chested in fifth grade. I now wear a D cup. Sometimes, I want to go back to those kids and be like..now what. Yeah. That’s right.

#4 I never fill up my gas tank all the way. I hate waiting for it to fill.

#5 I can do voices. Lots of them. Oh, and I still make prank phone calls.

#6 When I used to babysit and play board games with the kid, I would cheat.
