The guess who will post next game!! !

Post Reply New Topic

Yeah, you sorta should. I have collected sea shells too (before I knew about that). They are beautiful!

The next person never believed in Santa Claus.

I did.

The next person did too.

Nope. I never did. My parents never sold me that story, so I couldn’t believe that any child really did believe.

The next person stopped playing with toys earlier than me. (The last time I played with toys I was 11.)

Yeah, I did.

The next person has always had a comfort item that they needed with them.

No, not always. When I was little I had a long-limbed teddy named Daniel who accompanied me everywhere. When I turned 6 he was replaced with a seal I called Nordlys, and she was with me everywhere but to school until I was 8.
Before an exam in junior high I brought a small turtle figurine on a whim and had it in my pencil box. I found it relaxing to touch it. I did very well that day, and so the turtle figurine became my good luck charm, and I liked to bring it along for exams and things like that, but it’s not a big deal if I can’t or forget. I don’t have to have it with me. I wanted to bring it when I was assessed for AS but I didn't dare bring it in case things went really bad. As you know I had some bad experience with psychiatry.

The next person has or has had a good luck charm.

Nope.

The next person can remember is great detail events from before the age of 3.

How detailed it is can vary, I usually don’t remember clothes for instance (like what I or others wore) but yes, I have several memories from before I turned 3, most of which were emotional which might have lead to me remembering more easily.

The next person never watched the news as a child.

I would sometimes. To see if school would get called off due to snow. I liked winter then.

The next person usually always watches the news, even as a child.

Haha, I can believe that made ya love winter! School are never closed here because of snow. Blah! You have no idea how much I envied American children when I learned that schools closed when there was too much snow.

I usually watch the news (or take a look at the headlines if I miss it). I didn’t usually watch the news per se when I was a child, it was more a matter of being in the room when it was on and paying attention when something caught my interest one way or another. I remember all the talk about Becquerel after Chernobyl and I’m very glad I was too young to understand the seriousness of the situation. The ferry catastrophe outside Zeebrugge also made an impact on me, especially when the reporter said that divers had come across dead people starting to dissolve (sorry to be graphic, just repeating what they said). That was the first true cognitive understanding I had of death. Before that I felt sad when I found dead birds. The first news story I reacted to when was a bomb went off on Oslo Central train station in 1982. My mother had taken the train to work that day and I asked my father if that was her when they said a woman was dead. I was scared but I still lacked true cognitive understanding of it. The covering of AIDS is another news story I remember well, and I found it very scary; I was 9.

The next person usually knows what to say.

Haha....I'll tell you about getting out of school for snow in a PM. I do have something to say about it.

Yes, 98% of the time. Though sometimes people will catch me off guard with such rudeness or with questions that it hard for me to answer honestly without feeling bad. I'll explain that in a PM too.

The next person finds it much easier to talk to people online then IRL.

Okay

Yes, very much so. Writing and lack of real time makes it easier. And the possibility to edit! IDK how often I have wished I could edit things I say IRL. The only thing that is harder online is guessing how what I say is taken.

The next person finds it much easier IRL.

Yes, most of the time. There are times where writing is easier if I just can't face someone. Conflict type stuff.

The next person is experiencing cold weather where they live.

Did you have to remind me? Actually it’s just over the freezing point for water now, so not too bad. Sunday we had rain. There’s a lot of snow though.

The next person would miss snow if they never saw it again.

Yeah, but only if I didn't have anywhere to be.

The next person does enjoy looking at the snow before cars and people start trekking through it.

Yeah, pristine snow looks good, and also snow on branches and hanging off roofs. When you look closely at it and see the layers from how it has slid you can’t help be fascinated.

The next person finds waterfalls beautiful. (They are among my personal fave natural phenomena.)

Who wouldn't? They are indeed beautiful.

The next person doesn't have a lot of waterfalls near to where they live.
