INTRODUCE THYSELVES (please?)

[Camille]

Hi all! In lieu of being a corny book club introduction post, here are some icebreakers that you can answer to tell everyone about yourselves:

1. What is the scariest thing that you've ever done for fun?
2. If you could instantly become an expert in something, what would it be?
3. Name your favorite children's story!
4. What is the silliest thing that you have an emotional attachment to?
5. What failure have you learned the most from?

You can either answer ALL FIVE or answer AT LEAST THREE :) please enlighten everyone!

Thank you kindly!

hahaha alright alright here are my answers:
1. hmm hopped a wall into a graveyard at night to explore with friends.
2. an expert in physics, I already know a lot about the paranormal so need more science facts.
3. hahaha favorite spooky story was the girl with the green ribbon. favorite child book, probably Corduroy or Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
4. I am very attached to my dragon figurines...
5. my failure to communicate in a relationship taught me a very valuable lesson that communication and compassion are very important. also learning to properly express emotions instead of ignoring them. I learned you can bury them but one way or another they will resurface.

2. I would become an expert on fixing cars & helicopters. You never know when you'll need to hotwire something in the midst of a zombie apocalypse.

3. The Trumpet of The Swan - does that one count?

4. Kandi bracelets that I made back in my raving days. They're just these multicolored, plastic beads strung together on see-through elastic twine, but I made them during one of the best & wildest times of my life & I can't bear to throw all of them away because of all the memories! I even have two mason jars full of the ones I made & the ones that friends made for me, including a wide blue-and-white arm cuff w a gigantic kandi Pokeball.

5. Devoting all of yourselves into your work. I got burned really badly when I was a visual merchandising athlete at Nike over 9 years ago- poured so much energy, love & commitment into my work & the position I was promised by the leadership team was then given to someone who hadn't had the slightest clue as to what sort of work went into my role, all because of politics. From then on, I learned not to wholly invest myself in work (as well as blindly trust my managers) that wasn't MINE (bitches).

I love this Idea.
1. Scariest thing i've done for fun lets see....OH I played with a OUIJA board in highschool...NEVER AGAIN lol
2. If I could easily become an expert in something it would be to become fluent in multiple languages if not all :) Sweet Skill!!
3. Favorite childhood story is The neverending story and The cat in the hat.
4. The Silliest thing i'm attached too ummmmmmmmm I don't know possibly all the gimp I still hoard from middle school lol
5. I would have to agree with Nicole communication. I've learned not everything need to be spoken and it's not what you say but how you say it and I believe I will be working forever on communication because its a never ending lesson...in my opinion
