Quirky

[Gower]

Are there any strange habits you have or things you do? For instance i can't do my homework with the television on . Also if i am on the computer i always have to have the door shut for some reason

I like this topic, I have so many quirks it crazy. Hmm, one of them is, I can't sleep unless the house is quiet. I'm always the last person to go to bed at night and I go around and turn off all tv's and lights and make sure the door is locked.

Hah, im the oppisite.i cant sleep unless i have music that im listening to. Hehe

i'm like tiggirl- i can't fall asleep until the tv's off, my dog shuts up, everyone else is in bed, and it's decently quiet outside (no cars going by with the radio booming, etc.)

also, i cant read or work or write with someone reading over my shoulder- it drives me nuts!

[Marcus Baker]

I have a wierd one. I hate ppl walking behind me, i have no clue why, i just dont like it.

[pinky p]

i suppose you find it difficult going anywhere there is a lot of people?

I'm like that too, in school during exams or whatever if the prof. is going around to watch what your doing, I always stop working when they get to me. One year my physics prof. ragged on me all semester because I couldn't work when he came to my station. He'd stand across the room and ask me if he was standing too close.

[pinky p]

hehe... i'm not THAT bad
i just can't concentrate or tell them to go away

[Gower]

I get distracted by teachers doing that as well!

i think one of my weirdest habbits is not being able to go anywhere unless i have my little stuffed Froggy toy with me.....

Well, I'm definately a can't go to sleep without some kind of noise! It used to be music, but I moved my sterio to where my puter is, so now it's the airconditioning! I totally can't sleep without that humming noise!

But for a bit of a strange one, I can't really concentrate on studying unless I'm chewing on something... I go through alot of gum when exams come around, and chew the tops off alot of pens! I've tried to stop it, but whenever I get stuck on something, pen goes into my mouth!

I can't think of any other really strange things that I do, probably because I think that they are all normal! hehehe! Possibly reading books while in the pool (floating on a tyre!) people always tell me that's weird, I dont' know why though? It's very comfortable!

ooo...that chewing thing reminds me of another of my quirky habbits...

i cant sit next to paper without ripping it up...shredding it.....brilliant.....mum thinks im a hamster

and that goes with the next one....it takes me roughly 4 or 5 bookmarks to read an average sized novell...because while im reading it i either shred the bookmark or eat it....seriously, i do eat it....its when i want both hands to hold the book, i chew the bookmark.....therefore i have to have a huge supply of used envelopes, receipts, scrap paer...or them card bookmarks you get free from libraries and shops...cant ever use a fancy bookmark because ill eat it or try to eat it anyway....

I cant sleep unless there is some noise in the room, usually my stereo. But i can sleep through just about anything... thus why i always fallasleep on the bus!
I cant stand it when people scratch there skin, it drives me up the wall, i hate the noise and it just makes me cringe.

[Jotomicron]

Have you ever tried to buy some plastic bookmarks?

Anyway, when studying, I must have cookies with me (I'd like they to be happiness cookies, indeed). When I try to concentrate on study, I find it specially hard when i have nothing to eat.

And I do like my door closed when I'm on the computer. I don't know why, but think it's rellated with the noise.

Finally, i can't sleep if the blinds (i think that's the word) on my room are open, even if it just a little bit! I can't sleep with any light.

[Holly Golightly]

Ohhh, light coming throughthe blinds! Drives me mad when I'm trying to sleep too! And I totalyl cant' sleep with my door open! (even if the a/c's not on!) I think that that might be a result of living on college, but it just drives me insane!
