What's the weirdest

What's the weirdest complement someone's given you? Someone once told me I had the best scowl they'd see in a long time (I didn't realize I was scowling until they told me), and someone else said I had a good sarcastic laugh. :D

*grin* Lena's compliments, of course! That I'm a spectacular villain and all that. How can you not love that?

I don't know.... I'm so forgetful, sometimes I forget that entire weeks existed. So I have no idea. I'll keep an eye out for new ones, though!

Haha. It's strange - I think, "No, thing A happened before thing B, but after thing C. But wait, thing C was the day right before thing B! Wow, there must have been a day in between them after all! That's weird!" And this will be two days after thing B. It's kind of scary. I'm going to start keeping a journal. Maybe that will help. It'll help me when I write to my (let's see, oh, five! sorry, forgot how many I have) penpals, too. Computers are wonderful - I can just type one letter and then change the heading.... Dear Elisabeth *prints copy* Dear Jessica *prints copy* Dear Hannah *prints copy* Dear Grandma *prints copy* etc. Of course I change other things too, but you get the idea. Anywho, I can never remember what happened over the course of the week I'm supposed to be writing to them about. :P And when I forget that a week existed, chances are I forgot to write to them that week, too. :P:P:P:P

 

-EH the totally forgetful

Sometimes I'm like that. But more often I have an almost perfect memory (except regarding anything my parents tell me to doLaughing).

Hmm, I'll have to think about that, too.

I'll write back if I remember something ;D

LOL! Well, this compliment wasn't exactly weird, just placed at the wrong moment, which therefore made it weird. I had had the last straw with a boy in my YG and I was giving him a piece of my mind when in walked our Awanas commander. I just carried on while she handed out flyers and finished before she was done. When she walked out, the air was ready to explode with tension but what did she say? "M, you should do acting or something." It was just NOT well-timed at all.

I was in Awanas until maybe fourth or fifth grade.... The Awana Games (formerly Awana Olympics) were fun, as was Bible Quizzing. Haven't done it in years, though.

It's not really a compliment, but once some random person said while he was walking past my brother, "You got an anchor on your shirt."  Then my brother whirled around, and he started muttering "Well . . . he does . . ."  And then he was gone.  (My brother WAS wearing a shirt with an anchor on it that day :) )
