1. I was once a world record holder.

2. I learnt to dance like Michael Jackson when i was younger, and won a holiday to Amsterdam doing that (!) and still do it in secret.

3. People assume that i'm very confident, but in part it's a defence and i'm quite insecure and easily wounded.

4. I cry at the end of Monsters Inc. every time I watch it.

5. I've had my heart broken and it took me a long time to get over.

I loved Amsterdam, although i was very tired by the end of the trip. And yes, i do need a cuddle, thanks

Yep, me too


Thinking of some surprising things about myself

1. I modeled briefly....

2. i'm actually not an approachable type of person.....i'm feared a lot of places and I have no idea why but I like it

3. I'm an introvert

4. my nails on my left hand can grow up to 5-6 inches if I let them and yet I can't get a good 1-2 inches on my right

5. I have a 13 year old daughter that looks NOTHING like me and at times people think she is someones elses kid. She looks like a young Lisa Raye.

Ooooh. Another things, which makes nr 6.
Remembered after reading so many nail posts here.

6. I find long nails scary, especially on men.

1. When I was 5, I technically died. I had a burst appendix and my heart stopped on the operating table.

2. My name is Summer Dawn...but I was born in the winter. My parents did entirely too many hallucinogenic drugs

3. I love to write...poetry, short stories, draw...whatever. I also love learning about different religions and archeology.

4. I am a horribly clumsy person...I trip and fall down at least once or twice a month

5. I have met some beautifully amazing people here on Prince.Org...Javier, Julie, Martina (have fun in German, gurlie!!)...and many more. The connections that we make online and in real life are special ones...and I value each of these people every day and love them very much

6. (because I can) I am an extremely shy person...it takes a long time for me to open up to someone. I'm also a very silly person...I joke a lot and can be extroverted at times. We are all contradictory...

Here's another 5

1) I won a trophy and ribbon at a baby pagaent when i was 3.
2) I usually get mistaken for Brazillian, French, Italian or Turkish...but i'm Anglo-Indian.
3) I have a slash-like scar on my left arm joint from an school-yard accident when i was 9.
4) I'm not afraid to copy someone else's amusing dance move when at a nightclub
5) I was given the role of bein my cousin's Godmother when i was sixteen...it was a toss-a-coin between me n my other cousin...but for some reason i knew i'd get it.

you guys 'n girls have to help me out here, what do you already know??!!

I'll fill in the missing parts later

1) I'm a shy person and I'm afraid to meet any other Orgers.When Moonbeam was in my area last year,we were gonna meet up but I chickened out

2)I'm a light-skinned black guy,but people always assume I'm "mixed" with something else (usually,they think I'm Puerto Rican..lol).That's why I completely understand what Prince must go through

3)I don't understand any of the current slang that young kids use today (I'm totally Old School...lol).Last week,I heard my niece say "You be all up in my grill" and I had to ask her what she meant!

4)The only drug I've ever tried was marijuana.

5)I'm a very "neat" person and everything in my life is organized (my schedule,my bedroom,my CD collection,etc)

01. On my first day of kindergarten, I painted a blue star on my forehead, climbed to the top of a climbing frame and wouldn't come back down until my mother picked me up;
02. I could read newspapers when I was 5 years old;
03. I saw my first kiss (another man) perform on Top Of The Pops once;
04. I will never set foot in Spain because of their appalling treatment of animals;
05. The last person I slept with was an Iraqi.

1. I studied gymnastics and Tap/Jazz for years as a child.
2. I am incredibly out-going and find it easy to talk to people i just meet.
3. I went to college to become a teacher, but stopped going a year short of getting my degree.
4. I was once engaged and called off the wedding 5 months before the date.
5. I fell off my bike when I was 7 and did some damage to my face now, I have a scar (that looks like a vaccination mark) on my right jaw line and a tiny scar on my nose.

EXTRA- I can burp like a truck driver and have no qualms about letting everyone hear it..

1. I am really neurotic about body hair - I pluck, wax, and shave off the majority of it. But right now I'm letting it all grow out as far as I can. I've never done it before and it's simultaneously grossing me out and making me feel more... carefree I guess? Anyway, you guys should see my armpits! I'm still wary about wearing tanktops, though.

2. I constantly have doubts about what I'm majoring in. I hate literature and I'm not too good at it. I'm only doing it for the creative writing concentration and even that I'm starting to have doubts in. I love film theory (not production, ew) and always wonder what it would be like if I had chose to done film instead. Oh well, there's always grad school...

3. I like the org more than I like Prince.

4. When I came to London, I had NO idea that the UK was an island. I had no idea what the UK was, I thought it was just England. Didn't know it included Wales, Northern Ireland, and Scotland. I thought the Union Jack flag was England's flag. After England won the rugby cup (or whatever it was), I saw a bunch of drunken rugby fans running through Covent Garden with an English flag. My first response? 'Oh, Switzerland must have won...'



5. I am very greedy and materialistic. I'm trying to change, but it's difficult. Once when I was young, I locked myself in my bedroom (actually it was my sisters' bedroom, too) and refused to come out. I finally unlocked the door when my mother offered me her opal necklace as a reward.

You need to read more Ezra Pound...beeeyatch!

1. Try as I might, I am unable to curl/roll my tongue into that taco shell shape most people can, however, I am able to touch my tongue to my nose.

2. I missed a year and a half of school when I was 11, because I crushed the bottom three vertbrae in my back roller skating, missed a lot of school through the years, but was still offered to graduate a year early. I didn't take the offer because I wanted to graduate with my class, even though I couldn't stand 90% of my classmates and then, I never went to commencements, and, because I chose not to go, they didn't give me the little cap and gown.


3. When I was 16 I was the biggest Coke dealer in the area where I lived and did this for over two years. Only a handful of people knew I was the dealer, I went by the name "Yvette" and had those close to me deliver the goods. I even sold to my dad and he didn't know he was getting it from me, until years later when he was sitting in Church someone told him I was the dealer he was getting it from all those years ago (he quit not long after I stopped dealing because he owed over $20,000 in coke debts to another dealer). I stopped when I did over an eightball myself one night and nearly died.

4. I've had three "good attempts" at suicide in my life. Two landed me in the hospital, the third landed me in bed. Since having my first child seven years ago, I haven't had a suicidal urge up until last July and no more since then.

5. I become bored very easily. I tend to go into something head-first, then become extrememly bored and quit whatever it was. Knowing that, I am no good at crafts, projects, and a lot of times relationships.

Yeah, yeah... I haven't completed a book in so long. Which is odd... I love to read! Well, used to, I guess. *shrugs*

Where is YOUR list 9's?????

~I used to be so shy that I never even kissed a girl until my senior year of highschool...

~I've had a crush on Joan Cusak for years now... (those lips!)

~I once put one of those suction cup basketball hoops on my forhead as a joke, then mistakenly tried just pulling it off instead of breaking the suction....I had a hickey the size of a tennis ball in the middle of my forehead for a week..

~I find it hard to look at anyone I'm deeply attracted to in the eyes...I almost always have to turn away, it's too intense..

~I'm an extraordinary cook....

Where are you from?

PANDURITO said:

England. Yeah, I know - nowhere is perfect - but the general majority of people and politicians in this country want hunting banned. Less than half a percent of the U.K. population engages in blood"sports". I've never met anybody who does - and I don't want to.

I can't even comprehend how anybody could attend a bull"fight". I can't believe that bullrings are located in major cities. Its medieval. Its even on the television over there. I've been kept awake at night, many, many times, thinking about it.

I know its not just Spain. There are bullrings in Southern France and Mexico too. I'll never visit those places either.

BinaryJustin said:

You can visit Barcelona
They have banned bull-fights there

PANDURITO said:

Really??? I've always wanted to go and see all the Gaudi architecture and visit Stiges. Are you sure?

Well.It's on the news this week.

They have voted against at the Barcelona TownHall but it's not up to them to decide.

They say they are too liberal to ban things so I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens.

And I'm against cruelty to animals too. Who's not?
But it takes time to get rid of our "cultural" background, doesn't it ?

Imagine your Iraqi partner not "doing" it with you because of British appalling treatment to Iraquis







THIS IS cruelty to animals:

1. I love the heat; even when people can't stand it and complain about, I'm the only one to feel ok. Likewise I just can't stand the cold.

2. I'm a very bad cooker, don't have enough patience for that, don't wanna waiste my time in a kitchen.

3. I belong to an organization fighting against marital violence.

4. I wish I could learn the signs language.

5. I'm supposed to speak Russian but I forgot, spending years without practicing, but I'm still cursing in Russian (don't know why, it comes natural...)

1. Everyone knows I'm a vegetarian, but few people know that when I was a kid, my favorite snack was raw hamburger.

2. I had a girlfriend for almost 3 years, and she was probably the closest relationship I've ever had. She was certainly the most delightfully bizarre of anyone I've ever dated. She used to collect glass candle holders that she'd buy at garage sales and keep them in a basket, and when she'd have a bad day she'd grab some candle holders and throw them at the wall and stomp around like Donkey Kong. She rawked.

3. I almost became a donor daddy when a lesbian friend of mine asked if I'd help her and her girlfriend make a baby. Long story, but I was honored to be asked.

4. I used to have a job where I'd take breaks to go out and join trannie prostitutes as they threw rocks at the fancy schmancy restaurant across the street. The goal was to break a window, but we never reached our goal. GOD, I sure miss throwing rocks with the trannies...

5. I say I'm an only child, but I have a half-brother who I've barely ever seen. He's about 20 years old now, and I hope one day to meet him.
