I'm not sure about things no one knows about, so I'll try to think of things that very few know about. Therefore:

10 random and completely useless facts about my life.

1. My father used to play this (rather boring) golfing game on the PS1 when I was a child. One day I had a go at it and he discovered that I had an uncanny ability to time my strokes, so decided to use me as his 'secret weapon' when playing against his friends.

2. I have an abnormal lordosis of the spine which was not discovered until my early 20s despite a long history of back problems. Essentially my spine is TOO straight, without the normal amount of inward and outward curvature (as opposed to excessive curvatures, which are a more common condition). I found this discovery ironically amusing, because all my life people had made comments like: "____ (my name) sits up so straight! She has really good posture!" assuming that this was a sign of a healthy back.

3. At the age of about seven, I had a habit of jumping off of things (no, that is not the interesting fact). And then once while I was doing this, an idea popped into my head that if I could use the power of gravity and keep 'falling' indefinitely, and keep gaining speed, that eventually my perception of time would slow down, and become more like that of fast moving animals while everyone else would remain the same. When I got older and learned about Lightspeed and Einstein's theories, I was both humbled and ridiculously disappointed to realise someone much older, cleverer and more respected than myself had come up with a similar yet FAR more advanced idea, decades before I was even born, meaning I could never successfully claim it as my own.

4. I used to read the NME (New Musical Express, a national and long-running music journalism paper). As a teenager I wrote 3 submissions to their letters page on separate occasions, 2 of which were published.

5. On the subject of writing, between the ages of 13 and 19 I had 3 separate near opportunities to have my fiction or poetry work published, only to miss out due to intervening circumstances.

6. I can wiggle my nose up and down like a rabbit, but not side to side like most people can.

7. I deliberately swallowed a penny when I was little, simply because I had no idea what would happen as a result and was so bored that I wanted to make the day more interesting. To this day, my mother believes I accidentally dropped it in my mouth.

8. ...Also when I was 3, I got a button stuck up my nose. Though I don't remember it, I am informed that my parents only realised what I had done when I started walking around whistling out of my nose as if it was the most hilarious thing ever.

9. I have a natural affinity with animals and can usually earn their trust quickly, including those that are normally stand-offish with humans.

10. I have a smallish, oval shaped Café au lait birthmark in a very... interesting location. Let's just say if anyone ever saw it, they'd be getting to know me VERY well



Extra fact: I have on occasion been very tempted to write fanfiction, but have never done so. But I have created fan art.

 

I had clubbed feet as a newborn baby. Doctors had to perform surgery and I still have the scars on my feet. I call them my jack skellingtom scars because, they look like his mouth all the across the back of my ankles. It caused one of my feet to be bigger then the others. As a infint I had to have 3 needles in my feet (2 in the left. 1 in the right) for 1 month while wearing a cast. This caused my left big toe to have the toe nail split. It isn't noticable now though.

 

Interesting that. I've heard anecdotally about birth marks running in families but didn't know if it was a myth/common coincidence or an actual genetic trait that can happen.

Funnily enough, I actually did used to draw on my birthmark. By which I don't mean that I drew it on, rather that I used it as a base for drawing on myself, because it had these 5 little dot marks inside of the main oval, so I used to get a felt-tip pen and try to join the dots to make a five-point star.

 

i am double-jointed in my arms and legs

 

I have double-jointed thumbs, so I can pop them out of position and back in fairly quickly. The "out-of-position" looks like this: http://images.sodahead.com/polls/002579655/258432984_Thumb_answer_101_xlarge.jpeg

I've been playing the piano for 11 years now (although throughout those 11 years I was mainly focusing on other things like sports and school, so I'm not as good at it as I could have been).

I was adopted from China at 6 months old, as an orphan.

My best 5k time is 20:51. (I'm not on T yet.)

Even though I can't speak low and natural at the same time, I can alter my voice and make it very gravelly and funny-sounding.

I'm an only child.

 

I can lick my elbow.
I was born with two teeth.
I can solve a Rubik's cube in twenty seconds, on average.

I have an almost nonexistent sense of smell.
I didn't have a cellphone until I was almost 18.
I have slept in a hut among the Kuna tribe in a village in Panama.

 

When I was nineteen I was diagnosed with Stage 2 kidney failure. I fought hard to reverse my onset and survived.
