Another seven weird things about me

Wohooo! Life has been very exciting lately!
What with "meeting potential in-laws" (as we like to say here, as a joke), ie meeting my boyfriends family (which are all very nice), my mum's 50th birthday (huge party!) and another big big exam done (only one left now, yeah!)...oh, and all those other small things in between...it's been busy. :)

Anyway, kwoozy asked me (a while ago, too, ahem) to write about another few strange things about myself. Now, I hope I don't repeat myself...

1. I have this little thing about closing doors. When cabinet doors are left open etc I have this wild urge to close them - and will close them, too, if nothing speaks against this. I don't just do this at home either but at any home I visit as well.

2. The same goes for things on standby. I hate things on standby. I want to switch them off. So normally that's what I do, although I have a little more self-control here when it comes to other people's stuff.

3. I love cleaning up other people's rooms. Not my own, that one is always a toughie, but with other people's spaces - no problem! Fun! (And no, sorry, you can't rent me.)

4. I usually change my bedsheets every Sunday. This may seem a little much (which is why I hereby call it weird), but ooooh, I sleep so much better! And mhhhhh, fresh sheets!

5. I get ever so slightly annoyed when someone reads faster than me. Reading a lot is one of the things I was always proud of. Now lately this hasn't been working out so well (because I suddenly have so many other things to do, like actually meeting people!), and when I noticed a short while ago that my boyfriend just read those books away like nothing I got a very strange nagging feeling somewhere that I should be the one reading like that. Oh well. My time will come again. ;)

6. This also only started happening lately...sometimes I call people to talk about something specific, but as soon as they answer the phone all that is forgotten and we just talk about whatever. Then 5 minutes after we ended the conversation I suddenly remember what I had intended to say. (This also happens with emails sometimes. Or with wanting to do something specific at the PC, switching it on and then promptly forgetting about it. Annoying!)

7. When swimming, I don't like, and never have liked, to do the crawl. And why? Because I'm afraid that I will not be able to breathe properly. Or that I will breathe in water. Or that...well, whatever.

Hey, I guess I actually managed seven new weird things! Yay! :)
