That's because you're in South America. In North America, it has to go the way it is in the picture.

And so does in Europe.

Exactly. Does the water really go down the drain the opposite way there? Although, I can't recall which way it goes down here.

Hmm... The word "dissertation", I suppose. Also, any letter that's sent by HSBC or gas/electricity.

Oh, and Cliff Richard.

I have no idea. I don't know which way it goes here or there xD. Let me see!
I think it goes counterclockwise, at least that's my mom's toilet.

Incisions. And injections. And anything that pierces the skin/eyeballs.

And pubic hair. I was once friends with this girl and found one in her bathroom. I feel so fucking sick.

And because of this pubic hair thing, I also can't look at Prince/The Artist Formerly Known As Prince/Squiggle/Mr Pube.

Strange, I quite enjoy that pat of cooking. Perhaps something to do with man as hunter-gatherer... although that's hardly relevent today. Now it's "Woman shopper, cooker, cleaner, organiser,..." and "Man...Drinker."

eewww. it's the texture of raw meat, handling real flesh. yuck. i can't stand it. i think this is how some people become vegetarian, and i almost became one. oh, but i enjoy lots of drinking, too! ;-)

I hate public speaking in front of large crowds. I'm totally cool speaking to small groups of people or one on one...but the thought of going up to a podium to give a speech or something puts my stomach in knots! Actually, just being in a large crowd of people is uncomfortable for me. I think I've said this before, but for example...at the Travis concert this summer when everyone was pogoing during WDIAROM I had to stop for a second because people were touching me and bumping into me and I felt claustrophobic for a second and was like hyperventilating, lol.

Eeeeeeeewwwwww. I can't stand that either. I have to get someone else to do it for me. I think it will drive me to vegetarianism someday. Chicken is the worst.

I had a weird thing with ovens for a while, but I'm pretty much over that.

I don't like talking on the phone, even to people I love. It is nearly impossible for me to get up enough nerve to make an appointment over the phone. The dentist doesn't scare me, making the appointment does. That's why I ended up cutting my own hair; I couldn't call and make an appointment at the salon. (I did a pretty decent job, though, if I do say so myself!)



I don't like talking on the phone, either. I often don't bother answering it, and prefer emails. It helps if I'm representing someone else or a company, then I can sort of hide behind a role.

I worked as a switchboard operator as a summer job before this started, imagine!
