Randomness

March 13, 2008 By: Runner Leana

Well, rocketpants didn’t tag me specifically, but I wanted to play along. So here are seven random facts about me:

  1. I originally wanted to be a doctor (well, a gynocologist specifically), but when I realized that my queasy stomach probably wouldn’t make it through the first week of med school I changed to engineering. I had already mailed in my university application when I came to this realization.
  2. One night at a bar in Vancouver some arrogant guys showed up all dressed in suits. One guy who seemed cute came over and started dancing near us, but then I realized he was imitating my dance moves to make fun of me. He wound up dancing off and hitting on some other girls, but I later found out that this guy was Chris Pronger.
  3. My brother is very fond of making up nicknames for boyfriends (although sometimes one date is enough to warrant a nickname). In high school I dated Chicken Little (because he worked at the chicken place Swiss Chalet), Little Caesar (because he worked at Little Caesars), then I moved on to Peg Leg Ray (long story) and Porn-Shoer (because he had a pornstache and we talked about going snow shoeing).
  4. I just paid $63 for underground bike parking at work for the entire year. Not a bad deal when you think that a month’s transit pass is $75 or daily parking by my office is $17. Except right now I don’t have a bike to ride to work. Here’s hoping I follow through with the purchase and the intent to commute.
