Things Other People Would Be Surprised To Know About You

[AlexMack]

I have both acrophobia and a phobia of falling. I didn't realize the latter until my ex pointed it out. He thought it was hilarious to threaten to push me off his bed, a mere foot from the ground. This would give me a panic attack every single time.

I think it's a control issue, and that's why I hate flying. Sadly it affected me to the point that I couldn't learn some of my techniques in hapkido because they require learning to fall properly in groundfighting. I'm a great groundfighter but I'm terrified of going down.

Aaand...I really want to be a flight nurse and work on medevacs. Yeah, the chick terrified of heights, flying and faling wants to work on a helicopter.

I also can't go above the 3rd floor in the 25 storey UMASS library. There's a computer classroom on the 7th floor one of my classes met in once a week. I wound up dropping the class because I'd start crying and shaking in the elevator on the way up.

Yeah, you're surprised and now think I'm a loser :P

I can't read the Shopaholic series because the blatant consumerism makes me physically ill. I really hate shopping, I shop like a guy. Go in, find what I want, buy it. I try things on at home. Thankfully I don't dress like a man. All the time.

Okay, the big surprise-I gave all of myself to Brian. So I'm never going to be that way with any other guy ever again. When things don't work out there's nothing left of yourself.
