Randomness.....

Ok so Heather tagged me.

So here it goes 10 random things you may or may not know about me:


1. I was an Oyama full contact karate fighter in my early to mid twenties. I fought with competitors from all over the globe and even have a couple of division trophies stuffed in my closet. I would go to Japan fest every year in Atlanta and do board breaking demonstrations. It was really cool when the little girl's would ask for my autograph! hehe

2. I have posed nude for fine art photographs and my body has been cast into a sculpture.

3. I have never flown on a plane. I have however ridden in a hot air balloon and on many boats.

4. I have a real fear of growing older. I think it is more about the fragility of life itself rather than the prospect of not being young.

5. I have sung on stage in front of thousands of people at the Omni in Atlanta (when I was a kid).

6. I began acting in plays with my father when I was just 5 years old.

7. I wish I was as successful and adventurous as I am in my head.

8. I was married before (yep I am now on my second marriage) to a musician and traveled on tour buses and met many interesting people. Mostly band members and artists. I once ticked off Lisa Loeb and Adam Ant. hehe

9. I have a real impulse to touch artworks that I see in galleries and museums. I have set off a few alarms in my day. :) I like to touch them because I feel that I am somehow connecting with the artist who used their own hands to create the work. It is indescribable.

10. My secret Hollywood crush....drum roll please......Tim Curry!

My life is SO lame BUT I have flown on a plane... we'll leave out the part about hyperventilation and my dead grandmother's rosary beads, though... :)

Unfortunately, I do not have the energy to come up with 10 random facts right now! Besides, they wouldn't be as interesting as yours!! However, I am passionate about martial arts and will have my black belt someday ;-)!

Julie said...

Wow, pretty interesting! :) Julie

I am little behind on blogging and I just realized you tagged me! First time for everything! That karate stuff was pretty cool...and I'm jealous of the hot air balloon ride!
