Honest Scrap Award

I’ve been tagged by the very sweet Candace Rose (isn’t that the prettiest name?) to reveal 10 unknown facts about myself whereupon, I can claim the Honest Scrap Award. I love a good tag so here goes:

1. I’m vegetarian, well pescatarian, actually. 

2. I have a graduate degree that I make no use of whatsoever, much to my mother’s dismay.

3. I love karaoke. There, I said it.

4. I can’t ride a bike. Not competently, anyway.

5. I can read cyrillic. I don’t understand what I’m reading but I can read it.

6. I love to sleep. There’s nothing better for your health or your skin like a good night’s sleep.

7. I’m scared of birds. All birds. Even the little ones that everyone thinks are cute.

8. I had a speaking part in a movie. I don’t know if it ever got released.

9. I love condiments. Mmmmmm. Condiments.

10. I played piano for over ten years but can barely play the scales now.

Now I’d like to tag these fabulous blogs:

The Deco Detective

LiviaConcept

The Brick House

Me Melodia

A Life More Fabulous

Spill and claim your award, girls! I tried not to tag anyone who’s already been tagged but sorry if I messed up. I didn’t get any rules with this one so I say just tag as many people as you like. Thanks, Candace!

    Just wanted to comment that I am glad I am not the only blogger that is scared of birds…I am especially scared of bluejays – they are sinister…

    Amy: Thanks for your support! Everyone around here looks at me like I’m an alien when I say that. Sinister is right!

    How fascinating are you! What was the movie, do tell us… (And, while I’m not scared of them, I don’t much like birds.)

    K-Line: Oh yeah, fascinating, that’s me! The working title was New Kings (if I even remember correctly) and then it got changed a bunch of times. It was very indie, no big stars or anything. My 15 minutes of fame!

    You’re so sweet, thanks for playing along. If you only knew how much I dislike my name. I put up with the abuse of going by Candi rather than go by Candace!!!

    I am scared of birds too…especially chickens! I can’t eat around them, it grosses me out! I loooove karaoke, and sleeping too! I would like to one day go to grad school. That’s so cool that you had a speaking part in a movie!

    I am also terrified of birds, especially chickens. They have attacked me! Almost all my nightmares have included some sort of bird – most recently oversized owls with stork-like legs….

    Oh my – I just read Candace’s comment above – so glad to hear I’m not the only one who realizes how evil chickens are! (seriously)

    Well aren’t you fascinating, lady! I too have a degree, a JD, that much to my father’s chagrin is unused and frankly, at this point, useless. And I can read cyrillic as well, but just a tad, although I can converse pretty freely. Good to know all these key facts about the lady behind the brilliance!

    Hi Alek, thanks for calling my blog fabulous=) I’m bad at tagging, never know who to tag, but I’ll reveal that I’m not good at scales myself these days (and I’m a piano teacher…), that I have no idea what cyrillic is and that although I eat meat, I prefer carbs (especially those who aren’t good for you…)

    Candi and Fabulous: Yes! Chickens are the worst of all!

    Detective: You’re a piano teacher? How cool! I think you need to come and give me a refresher course. And I could live on carbs, too. And your blog really is fabulous!
