Amish-ed A Few Things

First, I'd like to apologize for the bad puns. I just thought I should be consistent with the lame title for my previous "Amish" post. Hopefully this is the last of my posts on this subject, so you will not have to endure further excruciation...
If you've been following along with my blog for a while, you might recall that I once posted a list of reasons that make me Amish. Basically, I'm not with the times and have odd similarities with the Amish stereotype. Even though I called them my "Top 10", they were really only the ten things that I could remember while writing that post, so I've decided to continue the list here...

1. Never traveled on a boat, plane, or train completely by myself.

2. Never seen the Grammy's or Academy Awards or Oscars.

3. Not sure what the distinctions are between the items mentioned in #2.

4. I have trouble talking to people older than me, regardless of how chill or cool they are...family members are no exception, sadly.

5. Have never ordered anything online, other than course registrations (even that was with the express permission/command of my parents).

6. I am STILL afraid of looking at, nearing, and (God forbid) entering lingerie stores.

7. Although the purpose of comedy shows is to relax and have a good laugh, I find them stressful because if the jokes aren't funny, watching becomes pointless, and thus I feel forced to laugh.

8. I feel nauseated just before I have to write a test or do something nervewracking (e.g. performing something for others).

9. Bought my first real posters a couple months ago at my school's poster fair.

10. I don't have a camera of my own, and thus I do not have any awesome pictures/polaroids of me and my friends plastered all over my wall. (Instead I have reflective stick-on butterflies from Dollarama :( )
