    As an improvisor, I constantly shock myself since I don't know what I'm going to say until I say it.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (gentile @ Jun 27 2007, 06:19 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>"I think anger is born of being surprised," I said as the car started."Whatchoo mean by that?" This was the first time she seemed remotely interested in anything I had to say. "I try to anticipate surprises. If a naked man was out in public, I wouldn't be surprised."</div>yeah, budha said something along the lines of the bad things are the things you don't anticipate....which is why I just try to anticipate any worst case scenario so I'm never in a bad mood. Not to mention that when you anticipate the worst case scenario and the worst case scenario doesn't occur it's awesome. This is a snippet of conversation that transpired yesterday:Doctor: I'm sorry, you have an absess we will have to drain it's an incredibly painful procedure...Me: That's a relief. Thought it was a Squamous Cell Carcinoma

    Oh yeah, one thing that shocked me was that I passed the calculus bypass test, despite the fact that I have never taken calc or precalc, and math is my weak point. I just educated guessed my way through (it was multiple choice....how can you have a multiple choice math test?) and ended up passing so that I could have my choice of any math class to take.

I played ona team with 4 10+ ppg scorers. We only played 5 minute quarters. I was mostly just the pointforward, setting people up. I didn;t really shoot unless I was wide open or I was under the basket or in the paint. Plus neither of you played in hte IHSAA, pretty much the biggest youth basketball league in Indiana, so there are tons of great players.

    I guess the first time was in grade 9 a few years back. Id always flirt with her and vice versa, then one time I was joking around with her and her friends and I put my arm around her and then she put my hand on her boobs and I started squeezing them, felt amazing.

I can hit mid range just fine, but once you get behind that line it must be a psychological thing. I feel extremely uncomfortable going outside the post.

    I lost 45 lbs. I used to way overweight (5' 179 lbs) then about 2 summers ago I worked out as hard as I could and ran like 2 miles each day during the summer - it was hell, but well worth it. I never thought I had the work ethic to actually do it.oh btw now im (5'6" 133 lbs)

    Re: Have you ever done something you didn't think you were capable of doing?

    During a summer tournament game in 8th grade, I managed to hit 6 3-pointers and my friend hit 7. We combined for 40 of our teams 45 points. It was easily the most absurd performance we've ever had because our team at the time was horrible. What's even more funny is that my friend was about 5'0 back then...He was not tall at all but he could shoot.

    I went from a C- to a B in science in one day right before the end of the year. I aced the final. It was crazy though, I am usually horrible at tests and almost always mess them up and I thought I did with that test, then I get it back and it says like 45/45 and I about peed my pants.

[​IMG] Just kidding.</div>I'm 5"10, and since grade 9 is considered middle school where I live, I was usually among the tallest people on the court...One game I WAS the tallest player in the game, and I ended up getting 14-16 boards, 9 points and a shitload of blocks. That was a crazy game. We were missing our center so I played almost the entire game too.
