Random?  Hmm..  Dunno about random, but here's something you don't know about me  - I have represented Australia in TaeKwondo.. In April 2004, I won a tournament in Canberra and hence was automatically selected to represent Australia at the upcoming Oceanic Championships in New Zealand (kinda like the Commonwealth Games for TKD).

I competed in Sparring, Patterns and Power Breaking (breaking boards) and got me a silver medal in sparring, bronze medal in patterns and came 4th in breaking.

 :o   ;D

I had the hots for Sal Mineo when I was 13, only I didn't know what they were (didn't want to know) and I don't think the expression "the hots" had been invented.

So I was looking forward to telling him the happy news as soon as I returned.

Are you being ironic or did you have some idea in your head about marrying this guy?

A friend of mine dated, lived with and worked for the family of a Middle Eastern guy for 4-5 years.  She was accepted by his family, had earlier dated his older brother, was talking with him about marriage...then one day he went home to the Middle East to visit relatives and when he came back he was engaged to a 15 year old girl back home.

So much for that.

OK, one random thing about me...I dress up in costume at Renaissance Faires.

Everything about me is kinda random

I am an expert seamstress and specialize in costume making. I've made a horse (fabric), T-rex with a 6 ft tail, a bone, a watermelon slice, a hat-trick and a bunch of other strange stuff.

p.s. I don't have an afro though

How did you accomplish that?!?!  I'd love to live overseas!  I hope to tour Italy in a couple of years.

I once "mooned' my co-workers to show them that I wasn't the shy, quiet type they all assumed I was.   ::)

Really? I couldn't live without driving. I hate being dependent on others...and I just like to go for drives every now and then.

I love going for drives too, but i just go for drives with friends. I usually take the bus or just walk places. Fortunately I live right in a shopping square and I have EVERYTHING I need right below me. And my UNI is super close too, like 5 mins walking, I'm quite fortunate! I'm looking forward to learning to drive, but I'm super nervous  :-\

Sheyne - I understand your decision not to date, and I respect you greatly for it.  :-*
