POLL: What are your bad habits??

newbie · #1 06-12-2001, 05:56 PM

I am embarassed to say that I have some majorly bad habits!

-I am the Queen of Procrastination and Laziness

-I hate dealing with stress, so I instead "run away" from it, and then soon it gets too much and I can't deal with it calmly

-I'm a Shopaholic!

-I eat for comfort

-I worry too much and overthink things

-I start new things (projects, etc.) but never finish them!

-The Scorpio in me either gets too passionate or too apathetic (no offense other Scorps, you know that I love my sign!!)

I'm a scorpio, too!! That, I guess, leads to one of my bad habits. I have an awful temper. Sometimes I lose it for no reason.

I also procrastinate... I still haven't finished painting the mural on my wall that I started 3 and a half years ago. Plus, I have the horrible habit of buying every cute ferret I see. I no longer go to pet stores, because I can't afford it. -.-

LOL KayDeeCareBear, we sound a bit alike

.

I love being a Scorpio, but it's true...we are INTENSE. Oh well, I take pride in knowing that I'm born under the fiestiest sign heheee

.

I'm sorry, but what is a ferrett? Is that a type of bird? Sorry, I'm not too knowledgeable in the pet field! Also, do you know how much a puppy costs from the pet store? I've always wanted a puppy!

Seeing as two other awesome Scorpios have posted, I guess I will keep it up!

- I too am the QUEEN of procrastination. AIM, GC, trashy TV, all turn what would be an easy quick paper into an all night ordeal...

- I start projects, such as reorganizing my bookshelf or cleaning out my closet, with a lot of enthusiasm yet never seem to finish...

- I am a total shopaholic and a total chocaholic

- I am a bathroom slob... not when I am at school, but at home I have a bathroom to myself and there is always makeup, blowdryers, various types of hair gel, nail polish etc spread out ALL over the counter

- Oh, and another scorpio flaw - I am very moody and am infamous in my house for my temper - it doesnt explode very often but when it does, watch out!

My goodness nucutiepie--you had me laughing so hard there!!!!!

Gosh we Scorps all sound SOO alike, we should start a club or something!! ROFLMAO

!!! I cannot believe how identical we all sound

. Guess what I'm doing right now--procrastinating

. I should be finishing my application for a job...but just too gosh-darned-lazy LOL. I pulled so many all-nighters this year only b/c my procrastination has gotten WORSE (can you believe that?!)

!

As I said in my first post, I also love starting projects but I never finish them... a few days ago, I had enthusiastically went to a decorating store (i like to decorate things, like my room) to get some new stuff for my room. I had planned to get started right away...and I did...but then soon I got bored LOL

Now stuff is lying around my house...begging me to finish what I started!!

About your bathroom...my desk (in my room) looks like SUCH a mess right now. Like an earthquake hit or something. I can't even find some things! Oh well, I'll survive

I also love chocolate....give me a box of chocolates and I'll be happy for a long time LOL...

Yup, I hear ya on the temper thingey...i'm normally very cheerful/good-natured...but as I said in the "Cheesy Zodiac Sign Shout-Outs" thread, other ppl better watch out w/us Scorps

, b/c we have an enormous sting if you don't watch out hahaa...

Gosh, we Scorps rule!! We all seem so alike (though not sure if that's a good thing?!

)!

Well, lets start a club then.

For all scorpios, or people who wanna BE scorpios!

Okay, here's what a ferret is: Have you ever seen a weasel? They're like weasles, only domesticated, like cats and dogs. They can't live outdoors, or they'll dies within a few days. Closely related to minks, they are not rodents, nor are they remotely related to rodents.

Kina a cross between cats a dogs, and they are so CUTE!

I have three!

MY WORST HABIT:
I'm a smoker. I started smoking in college and I've been trying to quit for about a year now. I've drastically cut down the amount of packs I smoke a week..and sometimes I'll wait until the weekend comes to smoke...it depends on the kind of week I'm having.

I also bite my nails. The BF says I have an oral fixation problem but I don't know...

I'm a procrastinator.

Oh--and I tend to bite straws when I drink out of them.

newbie · #8 06-12-2001, 08:53 PM

Hey KayDeeCareBear!!

You know, this sucks. I don't even know what a mink is, NOR a weasel!!

I don't know what's wrong with me; I've probably been deprived

LOL. How big are they? Can they go outside for just a while? I used to have a guinea pig!!

She was soooo adorable

. Do you know what a guinea pig looks like? I miss her!

LOL...isn't amazing how we are all true Scorpios (you, nucutiepie, me), and all exhibit the usual characteristics of our sign?

Oh yeah, KayDeeCareBear, I left a little message for you in the Rush Forum (in your Rush thread)

)

Hey, newbie? Can I send you an email on ferrets, and some sites? They are excellent pets, if you want to know more, just ask.

There's a LOT!

newbie · #10 06-12-2001, 09:22 PM

Sure, KayDeeCareBear! I would love to chat with you!!

I will reply, by the way, from a differnt address

.

KayDeeCareBear · #11 06-12-2001, 09:49 PM

K, lemme find some stuff for you. Another bad habit of mine... late emails.

juniorgrrl · #12 06-13-2001, 12:00 AM

I'm a bit of a control freak

I talk about my boyfriend waaaaay too much

I'm very picky about what I eat and can
recite the fat/calorie content of most
things

I always ask if I look fat or if I look
okay

I rarely make my bed

nucutiepie · #13 06-13-2001, 12:21 AM

Newbie - the club is a GREAT idea! Oh, and one other bad habit that it seems you and I share - I save things. I have boxes in my room full of notes, cards, etc dating back to my first communion (thats like 12 years of stuff) and the top shelf of my closet has all of my teen magazines/ cosmos etc back to 1995 (I saw your post to Hootie with the belly button thing and laughed so hard b/c I save things like that too AND would remember an article!!!)

Scorpios rule!

AXiD4Life · #14 06-13-2001, 12:35 AM

I'm like you, juniorgrrl, I can pretty much tell anyone the fat and calorie content of any food on the earth! It's sad! I obsessively watch my calories (so I don't go over 1,500, which is very healthy for my weight, thank you...no I don't have an eating disorder!)

However, I do need to watch what I eat because I don't have time to exercise very much. So I make up for it with my diet. My other bad habits are procrastinating, not getting enough sleep, and my room and car are always messy.

DGPhoney · #15 06-13-2001, 01:33 AM

oohhh Bad Habits, hmmmm, but I thought I was perfect, LOL,

2. The Need for Speed! I drive so fast some times, I scare my self,lol
3. Always Late
4. I watch entirely too much TV
5. I apolgise constantly. "Man it's raining, Oh I am sorry" really silly stuff like that, I can't help it though its a habit
