I've been tagged by wonderful artist Erika. This means I have to expose unusual things about myself to the world and find seven others who would willing to do the same. It's a fun game and helps get to know the persons you are interested in. There is no obligation to play this game, but if you want, these are the rules:
1. Put a link in your posting to the person who tagged you.
2. List 7 unusual things about yourself.
3. Tag 7 other bloggers at the end of your post and comment on their blogs to let them know."
My seven mysteries:
1. In 3rd grade, my painting won some award and I was chosen to do a painting for the entire school to enter a large competition. Unfortunately I don't know what happened to that painting; they never returned it to me. lol
2. I scored full 800 points on the math in SAT.
3. I refer to all animals including bugs as "persons" or "people."
4. I had a close friend from Mexico. He spoke only Spanish, no English, and I had no training in Spanish, but we could always carry conversations and understood each other. Nobody knew why.
5. I used to do Tarot reading for my friends and family since I was at high school. I even participated in a psychic show in San Francisco and got paid by reading Tarot.
6. I had a 9 to 5 job only for one year in my entire life. Always worked and still work at home. My job is freelance technical translator.
7. I have traveled Japan, US, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Indonesia, Australia, and Italy. The most memorable things are not the beautiful temples, majestic scenery, or historic buildings, but the little creatures I met and came contact with.
I am tagging the following artists who are my great inspiration; if you have already been tagged by someone else, just ignore my tag. Remember this is just a game. Please participate only if you want to.

Thanks for tagging me Akiko - I've always admired you but after reading all your mysteries I admire you even more! Wow - only one year working a 9-5 job - that's AWESOME!! And your work is always an inspiration to me.
My my my, am I glad I tagged you, those are some very interesting information! Wow you have psychic powers! Hmmmm do I have to touch the tarot for you to read? :) And a perfect score in Math I don't think I personally knew anybody who has ever done that WOW I'm in the presence of another dimension ^_^
Erika, people are full of mystries! By the way, I have not touched my Tarot deck for many years. Would love to create my own deck one day!
Shelley,I have been enjoying your blog. Can't wait to read your 7 things!
Akiko, so it looks like Erika got us to come out and play. The most interesting statement you made for me Akiko was #3. Your a little crazy too- in a good way of course. Strange though that your logical mathematical mind would allow you to be so artistic and creative. Simple addition and subtraction is about the best I could do. I use to watch the young kids on the train in Japan doing complex Calculus. I understand completely how you carried conversations with your friend. You both spoke the universal language of sound and gestures.
I loved learning a little more about you!
Alice, I'm glad you like my #3. I just don't see much difference in ALL living creatures.
