Boredom

It's the end of the first week of school, and I don't have any homework yet. So, while I'm waiting for Mark to finish his homework, I'll try to think of 100 things about myself. Wish me luck.

1. I like math/statistics, and thus my major is statistics.
2. I enjoy learning statistical programming languages to complete my homework assignments.
3. I enjoy learning statistical programming languages for fun.
4. I can't stand to have my hair be the same length for a long time.
5. I designed my wedding ring and am proud that nobody else's ring will be the exact same.
6. My favorite object is my calculator.
7. Second to that is a toss-up between my phone and my palm pilot.
8. I feel naked when I don't have at least one of these 3 objects near me.
9. My favorite board game is called Power Grid, and I will recommend it to anyone.
10. I love Logan and now consider it my home, though my mother's house will always be a home to me.

18. My job is pizza delivery and I actually enjoy it most of the time.
19. People can be really rude to pizza delivery people.

21. I love deep dish pepperoni pizza from Domino's.
22. I want to be a cartoon when I grow up.

47. I really enjoy computer games like frogger, sudoku, and heroes of might and magic.
