Three Things on a Friday Afternoon
This topic came up in a random conversation the other day, and I thought it was a fun one to put on the blog, mostly because I’d really love to hear your own answers to this: what are three things most people probably don’t know about you?
I found it hard to come up with three, being a relatively open book with people who know me, but I gave it a shot:
1. I can read (phonetically, but mostly not for comprehension) Cyrillic. So if it’s written in Russian or related languages, I can sound it out, even if I don’t know what it means.
2. When I was ten, I won a poetry contest with a poem written from the POV of a harried new mother. Seems an odd thing for a ten-year-old to write about, in retrospect.
3. I have never smoked anything, unless you count the salmon we caught and put in the smoker when I was a kid.
Do tell. What three things don’t I know about you?
Fun!
1). I once won first place for girls in the five km milk run in high school.
2). I have a photo of myself with Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope
van.
3). I once swam among the Thousand Islands of the St Laurence River.
That third one sounds especially cool.
1.) I once spent 15 minutes trying to hold a conversation with Clint Eastwood. I had nothing to say. It was awkward.
2.)I’m Buddhist.
3.) I was born in the midwest.
Hmm… what does one say to Clint, I wonder?
