Description:

This is the first in a series of swaps that I am going to do that will be an impetus for us to write about ourselves for posterity. Everyone has those stories and things that get passed down generation to generation, and when this is through you'll have collected information for your own little "Me by Me" autobiography of sorts while sharing your story with other friendly swappers!

This is an email swap that takes a little bit of work. I want you to write down 25 little known / fun facts about yourself - things you'd want your children or grandchildren to know. Please don't just write a quick sentence, write a little paragraph at least and tell us some really interesting things about YOU! This is the chance to brag about all those things you've done that are special in your life, or maybe something that makes you who you are today.

Newbies welcome with a filled out profile, otherwise at least a 4.8 - please PM me about recent 1's or 3's.

Just for an example, here's one thing about myself that I might put in the email:

  1. I've been inside the middle pyramid on the Giza Plateau in Egypt. It was very claustrophobic and there was really nothing to see but a big room once I got in the middle but it was still an awesome experience. It was either that or ride a camel and camel's are disgusting!

IDEA: You could start a "Me by Me" journal and print out your answers after each swap, and start collecting them so that at the end you'll have a great little book to share with your family and/or friends about YOU!

This is a fabulous idea because I scrap about everyone else mostly, and never take the time to tell about me. Now is a good time to do it!

I think this is a great swap idea. I am paring done on my swaps right because I overcommitted and am neglecting personal stuff for swapping. But if you do this again down the road I'd like to join.

I understand @loricritt I will probably do this one again in the future. I have ideas for other Me by Me's as well.

It's hard to come up with 25 things!! But I'm working on it.

It has been hard to come up with 25 things. I have 6 so far!

mellyrose89 09/12/2009 #

I've managed to come up with 20, but they're getting a bit less interesting!!!
