Finally, I've found another person who didn't grow up with a microwave! My friends all thought it was so weird. I'm 33 and still not very good at knowing how long to microwave something to heat it up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-a-random-fact-about-you/page/2#post-473973 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 16:22:06 +0000 fussygal 473973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@running Elley I still don't know how to dive!</p> <p>I started bowling at a really young age and had a 170ish average when I was 13. I even went to the "state Olympics" for bowling at 12. I stopped when I was 14, but recently started back up and am loving it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-a-random-fact-about-you/page/2#post-473856 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 14:46:18 +0000 Boogs 473856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: It is impressive!</p> <p>@matador84: Wow you must have never slept! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-a-random-fact-about-you/page/2#post-473484 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 09:28:43 +0000 matador84 473484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@boogs @arden I loaded up on coursework. I didn't intentionally plan to finish so fast, it just worked out. I remember I had to get the deans approval but I would take 9 hours in a summer session at a time. I never took breaks either and went to school every session that was offered with a full load. I did this while I was teaching full time also-I took night classes in the fall and spring ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-a-random-fact-about-you#post-473461 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 08:45:43 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 473461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lemondrop: now that's something to brag about! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-a-random-fact-about-you#post-473289 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 01:35:55 +0000 MaisyMay 473289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: @Arden: For me, the secret was having a May birthday. My birthday was right before graduation, so I still took 4 semesters to get my MA, but turned 22 pretty much the next day, so it was a standard 2 year degree, but it sounds pretty impressive this way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-a-random-fact-about-you#post-473287 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 01:34:14 +0000 StbHisMrs 473287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use to raise pygmy goats, I can give them vaccinations, and assist in kidding.
