| Sometimes it can be just social exclusion or being ignored. When I finally made an attempt to lose weight back in my senior year of high school, my classmates started to notice... A few boys, mainly classmates who were involved in sports/sports related activities, approached me during class on one o... |

| Depending on the circumstances, I'll eat dishes in a certain order. For example, if I was told (or observe the food myself) that one particular dish is scalding hot I put that aside for later and eat the colder dishes first. However, since I live with Japanese customs I want to respect the idea of a... |

| Yes, all the time. I usually latch onto someone I'm most familiar with (friend or someone I'm sort of familiar with), but I also run the risk of being seen as "unusually attached" so at some point I'll go off somewhere and find a place where I'll less likely to be "socially harassed" to take a break. |

| I faced a similar position when my group members in high school history class so naturally, I got really angry as I tried to do that best I can to finish it up. Although at some point I notified the teacher and I was relieved that he took my problem seriously. I'm assuming that he knew my work habit... |

| I live in a place full of condos (8 housing units per building) with a private pool. Ever since I was still in diapers, my mom would sometimes take me there for a swim and that's when I developed a natural ability to swim. In addition I started taking swimming lessons at various pools near local par... |

One of the shows had a hula hoop act so I spent almost every night and several months trying attempt some of the tricks mys... |

| Nothing odd about it. Although I'm also guessing it is a side affect for growing up with Japanese customs (but I live in the US). In the addition of actually visiting Japan throughout my life, I have been to hot spring spas numerous times so being naked amongst other naked individuals of the same ge... |

| Art. Luckily, I'm indulging in mostly art classes right now as I'm an art major (though I still have to pick out upper divisions courses which shouldn't be too bad since I don't have to take math classes anymore). On the other hand, I don't like math classes so much, especially if it's something lik... |

| I generally hate socializing, but it really depends on the person and setting. If I get into a conversation with a mature, energetic college classmate; its cool. Although I did attend senior prom...but that was only because I wanted to be with my friends and make the end of my year memorable. |
