Annica likes putting her name in titles.

Hej, ladies! It is the fifth Tuesday of NEA!

I didn't have a particularly interesting day, today, so I've decided I'm going to talk about myself. Unfortuntely, you four (plus our eight followers) don't really know much about me. The way I present myself in the blog isn't exactly how I am with my friends or my family or by myself.

We're all stuck in our own heads, and nobody will ever really know what happens in your head. Nobody knows what anyone is thinking, or feeling, or going through exactly.

Nobody really knows me very well. At school, I'm most likely seen as a quiet, boring, goody two shoes. At church, I'm probably seen as the uncommited, lazy type. I don't know what I seem like to you guys, but it's probably not completely true.

So, I'm going to tell you guys some things you don't know about me. It's still not going to be quite enough for you to really know me, but I hope that it helps you know me better).
1. I want to leave my paper town (ironically, my town is known for making paper and my high school mascot is a Papermaker) and travel around the world.
2. I like to be alone, but sometimes I feel like I'm the only one alive, and it gets quite depressing.
3. I like to make elaborate plans in my head. Dreams I have, goals I wish to accomplish, but when it comes to it, I'm always too unmotivated.
4. Contrary to my posts, I'm rather sarcastic and cold in real life. Not completely cruel or anything, but definitely meaner than on here.
5. I'm really sensitive. This makes me sound like a baby or a scaredy cat, but whenever I watch a sad movie or TV show, I always cry.
6. I'm a picky eater. I just can't bring myself to eat very many foods
7. At school, people aren't afraid to say things in front of me because I seem like the person that doesn't listen or tell others. I find out a lot of things this way. It's bad, true, but I can't help it.
8. Sometimes, I truly consider lying about myself to those who don't really know me. Nothing serious, of course. I don't, though, because I don't have the guts. One of those lies is, "I was named after Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars." Annica (an uh cuh) sounds quite a bit like Anakin (an uh kin), so it could make sense.
9. I'm really good at remembering names and birthdays and the like. I know the names of people at school I have never said a single word to. I sometimes get annoyed if I don't know a person's name.

Imagining each other complexly seems to be the main theme of Paper Towns (but that's not what I got from the book) and popular in Nerdfighteria, so I haven't thought about this in depth. Lol. Sorry if this is all old news for you.


QUESTIONS:
1. What are your favorite television shows? Mine are Doctor Who, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Glee. I think I've mentioned this before, but I've just ordered the first season of Doctor Who on Netflix (the eleventh Doctor was my first Doctor), recently finished Avatar, and Glee starts up again tonight, so T.V. is on my mind. Lol.
2. For those of you who are doing NaNoWriMo, how far are you in planning your novel? I've just got one idea down, but it's quite detailed. For those of you who are not doing NaNoWriMo (or if you are...), what are some things we don't know about you?

Winona/Wednesday:
Your experience sounds quite weird. I'd definitely be freaked out. The only slightly freaky thing I can think of that happened recently was when someone called for me and told me that I had been reccommended by someone I know to go to jail for a day or two for charity. It was probably a normal thing, but the caller didn't explain it well, so I freaked out. It's cool that you are talking to a Nerdfighter that lives near you. I'm kind of hoping something like that will happen to me.

Sanja/Thursday:
I wish I had more time for reading. But lately, I've just been trying to get used to high school. The book I am currently reading is Wide Awake by David Levithan. I'm bad at explaining books, but it's pretty much about a rightfully winning Presidential-nominee who some are trying to take the election away from. I quite like it. It makes me want to do more for my community and/or things I believe in.

Bridget/Friday:
I don't really know what else to say other than I'm glad you had fun. xD Out of context, being surrounded by a girl in a giant grape costume, with a elephant mask and a mexican sombrero, as well as a girl with a clown wig, a masquerade mask, a toga and a beard sounds quite freaky... Lolz. I finally understood the Pokemon picture you posted last week. Giggling ensued. Is your week going well? IT BETTER BE GOING WELL.

Jess/Monday:
I love, love, love your idea for NaNoNerdfighters. I'm one who wants to win and be the best. I don't seem competitive if you see me and the way I act, but trust me, in my mind, I want to CRUSH EVERYONE TO SMITHEREENS because I. AM. THE. BEST. Okay. Not really. But when I'm ranked or compared to others, I'm usually thinking, "No way no how am I going to end up in fifth place. I MUST BE FIRST." Unless it has to do with running or exercise. In that case, I know that there isn't any way that I'm going to get first *is an athlete*. Anyway, I think it would be a good way to motivate myself and others to do better and actually win NaNoWriMo. Also, I think that it would be cool to have a place for us to talk about our novels and ask for advice and motivation that is more select than the main NaNo website. Who better to seek advice from than other Nerdfighters, right? (okay, I know there are many other great people to seek advice from out in this world, so that's not entirely true) I would love to help, if you need it.

Followers:
Hello. Sanja reminded me in her post that the followers need some love, too. I just want to let you know that I have noticed all of you. All eight of you. I have looked at your blogs, if you have them, and I have been equally excited for each one of you to join us. Now, I'd just like to take this moment and say thank you and to invite you to comment our posts and to talk to us. SO COMMENT, DAMMIT. COMMMMENT. Just kidding. You don't have to (yes, you do).

Currently Reading: Wide Awake by David Levithan
