when you help others, you can't help helping yourself

Avenue Q - There's A Fine, Fine Line

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them."

animal crossing: wild world is unbelievably addictive! I've been glued to my DS screen all week, but it's beginning to make my neck really hurt. DX I don't think a break would go amiss.
I also need to go and work out tonight... *sluggishness* I have to work out twice to three times a week, and so far this week I haven't AT ALL... it's already Tuesday! ARGH!

I'm so glad reenie received her parcel in the mail, finally! I am also pleased to report that she was chuffed to high heaven with its contents. I only wish I had enough money to send parcels to my friends more often. I love sending gifts!

Well, reeniebeaner tagged me, so I guess I'm gonna have to do this bloody game thing now.

Each player of this game starts off with ten weird things or habits or little known facts about yourself. People who get tagged must write in a blog of their own ten weird things or habits or little known facts as well as state this rule clearly. At the end you must choose six people to be tagged and list their names. No tagbacks!

Well, I can't really tag that many people... so I'll just tag shereena, loppi (giving you an excuse to update your blimmin' journal, you lazy cow!) and kyle.

1. I have a really sensitive area of skin around my collarbone and upper chest. I hate clothes and jewellery rubbing against it!
2. I was recently diagnosed as having Social Anxiety Disorder.
3. By disposition, I am ferociously maternal and REALLY broody. I dread to think how I'm going to be when I get pregnant!
4. I am a 32FF cup size.
5. My musical tastes vary from "normal" to "embarrassing" to "clinically insane." They've been described by friends as "comical."
6. My most embarrassing moment was when I was eight. I walked into a men's changing room because I didn't have my glasses on, and a naked old man yelled at me in the shower!
7. I have freakishly small feet. D8
8. I buy clothes compulsively, especially sweaters and tee shirts. My wardrobe can no longer handle the strain!
9. I have no allergies. Yay.
10. I was going to go to the same secondary school as King Henry VIII and several other famous people. Instead, I went to the #1 school in the country when I won a scholarship. Ironically, I didn't get a fully paid scholarship for the other school and was only offered a bursary, even though its education wasn't as good!

Oh, and I have to feature a plug to karine, an artist I discovered whilst perusing through deviantart. She has a type of skin cancer called Basal Cell Carcinoma, which has become quite serious in her case. She has been calling to the online community for help paying for her treatment, because she is too sick to work for the money herself - she can't even walk without assistance and is constantly in and out of hospital. Please do your best to help her, because I think someone so talented deserves nothing but the best chances in life and hearing her story was both moving and admirable!

And time for one more thing. My interview for China is on Thursday March 1st - please wish me luck! I need it.
