U- Unknown fact about me: I was born in November and I have a beautiful topaz ring which I keep in the cool art deco box it came in.  My dad was 50 when i was born, and he was so happy to have a daughter at that late age that he went right out and bought me that ring and gave it to me on my 16th birthday.

W- Worst habit: Wow!  Too many to name.  One would be taking a nap every afternoon after school and not getting other stuff done.
