I was born on Friday the 13th ^w^ I tend to do things people would see as "bad luck things" as often as possible. Such as walking under every ladder I see or forcing black cats to cross my path.

Because it's a show for girls

- I never, ever tell anyone my dreams. Ever. Secrets. Sssshhh.

- I could never walk under a ladder

- I could never dream about putting my violin away without untightening the bow (well, that's more of a law actually)

- Lights and doors should always be closed/switched off if not in use.

- Things should never be spelt wrong.

- There is more, but it's way too OTT to be posted here.

I'm a horrible, superstitious perfectionist. Ick.

How is watching Card Captors and it being a girl's show being superstitious?


- I don't talk about bad things happening to the people I know (such as death, sickness, etc). Afraid it may really happen if I say it out loud or even think it. I don't want bad things happen to people I love, is all.

- I knock on wood if I for some reason do say something of the above superstition to safeguard my people. *knocks on wood now*

- I don't like talking about things to do with the devil. Whether the devil exists or not, I'm not sure. I just don't like talking or dealing with things that are in some way "evil", such as ouija boards. Other people laugh at me for that, but I'll respect the rest of you to not do so. Too much reading of bad experiences. It really makes me feel unwell to think of things like that. *knocks on wood again*

- I don't let the wind play on my wind-chimes when the windows are open (out of respect to someone else's superstition, a common Chinese one that ghosts are attracted to the sound of wind-chimes).

- If there is a mirror directly opposite a bed, I cover it with a cloth. I forget where I picked this up from, but it's not good to have a mirror opposite your bed. The only thing I garnered from this is that I did it to someone who was disbelieving of it, although she later admitted it was more comfortable sleeping with the mirror covered. I think there's something scientific involved actually.

- I believe it's perfectly possible there are some supernatural truths out there that I don't understand - and I don't care to. Better not to mess with what I don't know.

That reminds me.
I won't look directly in a mirror for more than a minute or two. And not only mirrors, any reflective surface. I saw something on Beyond Belief:Fact Or Fiction years and years ago.. probably 10 years now, where a lady was brushing her hair in the mirror and something, her reflection I guess, lept out of the mirror and held a knife to her throat. And they said it was fact, even though I know better. It scared me anyways, I was only 8ish when I saw it, and it stuck with me.
I have to run up stairs. Once I got detention for running up the stairs at school when everyone else was walking, and I tried to explain that it was just a superstistion and I was scared of walking up them, but she wouldn't believe me.
