25 Questions, a la Facebook

Like pretty much everyone on the Internet these days, I have a Facebook account which I use more than I probably should. Yes, it's useful and helps you connect with friends, but it still has that element of creepiness that alludes me, as I continue to post personal information. Last year, there was a "chain letter" style note going around, asking you to post 25 things about yourself that the average person in your life might not know. Reading through it today, I laughed thinking of the things that had changed, or remained the same, and most of all the things that I felt were important in my life. Even though its only been a year, I have changed drastically since then. Here's Erin in 2009:

• When I was three and living in Montreal, my best friend was a boy Therin. (lame rhyming names) and I thought we were going to get married one day. Sorry Therin, I've moved on.
• When I was in kindergarten, I meowed to the Canadian national anthem
• Sometimes I think I remember events from my childhood but its really just a photograph I saw.
• I can fold my tongue.
• I have never eaten a burger at McDonalds, even though I work there.
• I legitimately wanted to be a princess as a kid.
• Yesterday, I thought I wanted to scrap book for a living. How, I dont know??
• I sometimes clench my fists and try to look tough when I walk past scary-looking people.
• I struggle to touch my toes, so every night I attempt to. (remember the fitness test in grade 9 gym anyone?)
• Sometimes during tests or exams, I will stare at people, believing I am channeling their smart energy.
• I have a computer routine: hotmail, gmail, facebook, puzzle
• I'm anxious about who I'm going to room with in New York this year.
• I hate that I haven't been accepted into any universities yet, and I am jealous of those that have.
• I watch shows like The Bachelor, True Beauty and all that none sense religiously. If I miss it, I will find it on ROD.
• I still want to live in Mississauga when I grow up.
• I am scared of moving out, that's why I'm not going far for university or living in residence. However, I constantly pick out things I want in my imaginary apartment.
• I LOVE Andy Warhol.
• I have dressed up in an elephant suit and entertained children.
• I have a blog but no one reads it. ( www.erin-cochrane.blogspot.com)
• I bit my fingernails. Unfortunately my mother has bought me disgusting cream.
• I am obsessed with being on time for everything.
• I own more coats and shoes than I think I could possibly wear.
• I pride myself on my present wrapping skills.
• I had no clue that I was having a surprise party for my 18th birthday, really truly.
• This probably took me longer than it should have.
