Probably right on the computer people bit...but I'm definitely a computer person so it's all good ;)
Hmm, I've never actually added up the number of times I've moved...I'm sure the number is fairly substantial, but maybe not quite 26, haha. I'll figure it out while I'm doing nothing at work today ;D
I went to a college called Full Sail Real World Education. It was a bad move. I was already registered and scheduled at a college called RIT, one of the top three schools in the country when it comes to computer science. I was dumb. It's about the biggest mistake I've ever made. RIT was even giving me about 20,000 a year to attend there (tuition was something like 28,000/yr)
I love to eat, too :) I can really pack the food away. The reason I was doing the snake thing at the time: we ate our meals in the uni's cafeteria. one day shortly after i arrived i ate there and ended up being violently ill...after that i couldn't trust eating there anymore.

Full Sail Real World Education sounds like the kind of place where they either sell you to a sweat shop in Taiwain or train you to be a merchant marine.
Though I lived in FL for 4 years, I've never heard of it.
Are you allergic to something that made you ill?
And haven't you ever heard of Ramen noodles? 10 cents a pack, the sustaning force of most college kids. I know I ate enough of them in my day.

Haha, yeah the name sounds bad. It was located in Winter Park (basically Orlando).
I may have been allergic to something...I'm not sure. I have a really weak stomach. The only things I know I'm allergic to is once certain kind of medication and most beers (probably all, but I didn't get ill when I tried Guinness).
Oh, and ramen noodles, haha...we didn't have access to any way to cook food while there (I was in 9th grade at the time). We could only eat at the cafeteria and order out once on Sunday. I don't like ramen, though. I'm really picky, food-wise ;)

I lived in Lakeland so I know where Winter Park is. Still never heard of the school, but that's okay. There are lots of places I've never heard of.
Won't eat Ramen, but will eat an entire extra large pepperoni pizza! lol!
That's okay. I don't like black olives. All other kinds, yummy yummy, but not black.
If beers make you ill, I'm not letting you drink irish car bombs on New Years. Even if Guiness doesn't make you ill, like you say. I don't like people getting ill at my parties.

Fair enough, Serenity ;) I'd prefer not to be ill at your party, either, haha.
I counted up the times I've moved, and it came up to 23...which also happens to be my age. I sure hope that doesn't mean I'm going to move every year for the rest of my life ;D
I'm something of a pizza fanatic. And about the black olives, that's hilarious! The only other topping I'll take on my pizza (on fairly rare occasion) besides pepperoni is black olives.
That's fine on the irish car bombs...i'm sure there will be plenty else to drink :p

I was up to one a year for awhile, but as an adult I've been staying put a bit longer than I have as a child. So I'm losing my average.

One thing that I think you all don't know about me?
I'm a published author. No, you can't find any of my work at Barnes & Noble or Amazon.com. No, you really don't want to read any of it. In high school I won several awards for stuff that my writing class required me to submit. I've won a couple short story awards, a nonfiction award (with a dissertation on a popular Christmas carol, no less), but somehow I've managed to win a bunch of awards for poetry. I don't know. But back to the whole published thing, supposedly there's a hardback book at some college in NC with a poem of mine about how haikus work.
Since I started college, I really haven't been inspired to write anything worth entering into any contests.

ohhh....I like this as a topic for our little scyscraper.
Sad, though 'cause I've been a pretty open book and don't know if there's anything relevant about me that I've not shared a least a little about.
Ohhh...Here's something that I've not said, but could likely have been deduced anyway.
On Letterman's "Will It Float?" game...I like the "Grinder Girl" more than the "Hola hoop Girl".
Ok, you're right, not very revealing. *ponders*....
I Used to play this Collectable Card Game, and a friend who was once our DM in her DND Game, when to work for the company, and kinda put our characters into the game. So, I'm a card.
