My friends and I all took turns climbing up the rickety ladder and I was last. I fucking fell off and fell right into a fucking mud puddle. I was soaked. I had to go to the concert in wet pants!!!

No one wanted to be my clothing twin. Sad poppies. Bullies suck (yes, bully. There were many other incidents). Too bad for her, though. I'm still freaking awesome.

    1) My favorite show was: When I was younger probably Rainbow Brite, She-ra or Jem.  When I was older Rags to Riches, 90210, Just the Ten of Us and Full House
     
    2) My favorite food was: Pizza
    3) I wanted to be a ___________ when I grew up: photographer, lawyer, doctor
     
    4) I had a crush on: Donnie Wahlberg, Luke Perry.  I had giant pins and sweatshirts with them on it.
    5) I loved: Reading and cheerleading

    7) I always wore: My school uniform (wish I could have a work uniform now too!)
     
    8) People would describe me as: smart, bossy, a reading machine, mature
     
    9) I was Always/Never getting in trouble: I never, ever got in trouble at school, but was a smart alec, opinionated kid at home who never went to bed when I was supposed to at home!
     
    10) The most embarrassing thing that ever happened to me was: I can't think of any one thing.  I have psoriasis so if it was visible or was really bad in my scalp, I was super self-conscious.  We didn't have bullies in my school and I don't remember ever getting made fun of but I was extremely nervous about it.  Also, when I was in 6th grade, I began having to wear a back brace because of scoliosis.  That was traumatic especially when your body is just beginning to go through puberty and you are starting to like boys.  I had to wear it 23 hours a day and it caused me a lot of emotional (and physical) pain.

    10) The most embarrassing thing that ever happened to me was: I got my period when I was 13 and that summer I was in camp and was scheduled to go to Six flags the day of my period. That was the day my monster periods started. I used tampons and was used to them but by the time we got to the park (2 hour drive) I stood up and FELT my period GUSH down my leg. I had on a tampon, pad and 2 pants bc it was chilly and it leaked through everything. I had to tell the camp counselors about the problem and they were all only 16-19 years old. They found some super tampons for me but I bled through everything within an hour. They had to pool their money together to buy me new clothes from the gift store and were asking strangers for tampons or pads. It was terrible!!
