The vision in one of her eyes is signficantly better than the other. When she got glasses for the first time, she kept looking around and marvelling that “Everything is in 3D!”

When she was twelve, she had neurosurgery to restore full movement in her right arm. In the three days that she was in hospital, she could not get past Level 1 in Mario Brothers on the NES.

She used to collect liquid egg timers. They’re way cool.

She owns so many clothes that she has a summer wardrobe and winter wardrobe. It’s an absolute pain to change them over. She is usually lazy and slow at it so in the first months of autumn and even into winter, she can still be found wearing t-shirts and skirts.

She owns shares in Pacific Hydro because they are way cool. She tried to apply for work there once or twice but being a minority shareholder does not guarantee you a job interview.

If she were to hate a cuisine, it would be Japanese. How do you justify charging that much money for cold, primarily vegetarian, raw food?

The fruit she ate today – banana for breakfast, two small apples for morning tea, a banana for lunch, half a custard apple after dinner, a mandarin and an orange while watching TV.

Last year, she spent $1823.45 on dancing.

In Prep, she received an award for being able to tie her shoelaces… even though she wore velcro-fastened sneakers.

Her family have four fish – Silver, Spot, Goldie and Frankie.

She has never watched a scary movie in her life because she is sure they will give her nightmares.

She once won a public speaking competition by speaking about public speaking.

Apparently, people don’t like to do it. Speak in public, that is. She loves it, it makes her feel powerful, adored and funny. (Sssh, don’t say anything to shatter her delusions…)

She used to be hyper-competitive until she met other competitive people, realised how uncool they were and is now placid and easy-going. So now she is way cool.
