Fortune
Thinking what about to write (my muses are on vacation now) I got an idea to share some fun facts about myself. Let it be a challenge to us for sharing five random facts about ourselves. Let’s get to know each other a little better.
And so, five random facts about myself:
1. Whenever I walk, I look through the outside to the windows to see how people live, especially when there are no curtains and it is already dark enough. Lithuanians, unfortunately, often pull the curtains, but in Scandinavia, it can be seen a lot of their lifestyle and interiors from their homes. Each time being in Scandinavia, I enjoy their homes without any curtains but with a lot of flowers on the windowsills. Such curiosity looks weird but what to do, I have such a weird habit.
2. I cannot live any day without olives. I eat buckets of them in the literal sense of the word. Everyone who knows me laughs, they say: don’t give me any cakes but give me olives if want to see my happy face. So my friends store enough olives if they invite me to the guest. I can eat them in the morning, lunch, and evening. And never get bored of them.
3. I am very fond and interested in psychology. Sometimes I regret that this is not my profession. I always listen and try to help as much as I can. And it doesn’t matter if I know that person or not. I wonder about other people and the troubles that plague them. I like to watch people react differently to all kinds of things like when they lie, say honestly, get angry and so on.
4. I have been in circus only one time, and I no longer was interested in such a thing. Firstly, I felt bored, secondly, I am against the exploitation of animals. My mother was right to never take us there, I think we lost nothing. Instead, we often went to performances.
5. I am fatally afraid and dislike all worms and snakes. When I see any worm I can even vomit and if it were in my hands, I would probably be unconscious.

This is a great idea, my friend.
The facts you write here are very interesting, especially about caterpillars and snakes because you are like my wife and her sister. My wife even found it difficult to mention the word of snakes, she will throw her mobile even when she only saw it on the phone, and her sister would be very shocked and panicked if someone said caterpillars or worms.
This is a fun idea! I am enjoying reading these posts and learning about the members here.
Great idea Fortune! I have seen these posts popping up. Glad I finally found out who posted the challenge, thanks to Carol and her link to your post. You and my son have the same taste when it comes to Olives. For Christmas this year, I found a place that had all kinds of olives. It looked like an old country store. They sold sandwiches, sea food and of course OLIVES.
I feel the same about the circus, and zoo’s for that matter. I know we need the zoo’s but I still wont go. It really bothers me to see them caged or in the enclosures.
An interesting habit you have. I could eat olives all day long the problem is they are too expensive in SouthAfrica.We produce some of the finest cultivars in the world and our farmers win awards every year but they are more expensive than imported ones, how absolutely stupid and selfish is that?
Another big fan of psychology here.
I almost chose it as my major at college.
It is just fascinating to try to understand another human being.
You and I agree on Number 5. As for Number 4, how odd that we both had the same reaction to the circus after having only gone one time.
the strange thing is when I first tasted olives (they are not growing here), I did not like them at all. Years passed till I again tried them and could not stop eating…
I am glad, I am not alone who hate circus.
That’s a nice way to learn a bit more about each other. We have number 1 and 3 in common.
That’s great to know. I hope to read more about you.
There are ban on the animal on circus now.
Yes, we have started discussions about banning them too, and a few animals are banned already, but in my youth, they were a part of a circus.
I have not gone to any circus for a long time and last time when I went animals are there.
Yes this is a great idea for a new challenge. I am into psychology as well.
I am glad to read, some of us are interested in human psychology.
It is a nice Challenge to state five facts about ourselves. I too like psychology and I do have that habit of peering into people’s houses from a distance. I don’t know why…
I see I am not alone such here.
It’s called voyeurism, in some countries, it is an offense, “peeping-tom” or crimen injuria. (lol)
Thanks for the term, Andre. It’s a bad habit and it’s not that I covetous. Just to see…
I did not know olives were so addictive. I hate the circus world. I have never been to one and I will never be!!!!
