6 random things about me – I've been tagged :)

by Katinka - Spirituality on November 29, 2008 · 8 comments

Blogs are about communication. And I started this blog out warning my theosophical friends that I was going to get personal every once in a while. I’m afraid I haven’t been true to my word – but that’s going to change today.

I’ve been tagged by Joyful Days and I’ll be tagging 6 other bloggers at the end of this post.

So here goes. 6 things about me you didn’t know.

  1. I got my septum straightened this week. It still hurts a bit, but seems to be healing fine.
  2. As a young girl I used to have periods when I wore nothing but skirts and other periods when I would only wear pants.
  3. I didn’t grow up vegetarian, but my mother did cook 3 out of 7 meals without meat, when I grew up.
  4. I got my drivers license after I was 30. My brothers both can’t drive at all. Nor can my father.
  5. I’m Dutch, but that doesn’t mean I ever tried drugs.
  6. I lived in the USA (Austin Texas) for a year when I was 12, with my whole family. We moved there because my dad was learning a new profession (IT).

So here are the six bloggers I’m tagging:

  1. Paul Coelho (yes, he has a blog)
  2. Creative Mother Thinking
  3. Zen Habits
  4. Catskill Cottage Seed
  5. mirabile dictu
  6. The Level 8 Buddhist

Hi Katinka, nice going! Thanks for playing the game. At least now I know your nationality – I’d wondered from the start because of your unusual but lovely name. Hope you heal completely soon!

Hi, I felt those six things about your personal incidents came out from the bottom of your heart. I liked it very much. I am a feed subscriber to ur blog
and i find difficulty in understanding the writings because of ur language
with uncommon ,difficult words. I am subscribed to many blogs but never
felt uneasiness of understanding. Your writings are great and hope you can make it still better by choosing simple language.

Actually, Katinka is a Russian or Bulgarian name (depends on who you ask) which my parents picked out of a name book. Nothing Dutch about it. The healing seems to be going alright. Though it still hurts and I don’t yet have my usual energy back.

It’s not all about endurance for me, but I decided to keep the six things linked, and it was my mode at that moment since i was coming off a three day push setting up another group in social media.

If I were to answer what it’s all about? those six items would have a different slant.

Thanks for tagging me. I’ll be doing it in a short while. I always like this kind of meme, one learns a lot about other bloggers.
