two truths and a lie: an ice breaker.

since last time was so fun, i thought maybe we can do another ice breaker together. it was hard to come up with one that we could do through blogging and the only one that kept popping up in my head was an ice breaker activity that i never really liked doing {because i'm so bad at it} - it's called "two truths and a lie". have you heard of it? 

it's simple. all you have to do is tell three things about you - two of them have to be truths but one must be a lie. the goal is to figure out which of your facts are true and false. 

i'd love it if you either guessed what my truths and false were and/or if you could leave in your comment two truths and a lie about you, i'll play along and try to guess. since this is an ice breaker, feel free to comment on other people's comment as well. it'll be fun. but! you have to come back and let me know i have guessed correctly! a helpful tip: either make them really outrageous or really typical. those are the hardest to guess. 

here are my two truths and a lie: 

1. i once slept overnight inside the franklin institute, which is a science museum based in philadelphia, as part of a trip with my girl scout troop. 

2. a long time ago i participated in a pie eating contest and almost threw up afterwards. it always makes me feel queasy now whenever i see "anything" eating contests. 

3. i once worked as a volunteer translator for a mobile health clinic and didn't know how to say "are you sexually active" in korean. so i just stood there stumbling over my words and doing a slow clapping motion with my hands in hopes that the person would "catch on" to what i was trying to show her. it was so embarrassing. 

can you guess which are my truths and a lie? 

and now it's your turn!
