my mom's dog died. her disgusting brothers ate it, when she left. she found out when her dog was dug up. this was in the philippines, but that doesn't make the philippines look bad, that was like 30 years ago.

Hmm. I can't think of anything too incredibly odd but a few years ago, when I was doing a lot of family research, I found out a lot of intersting things about my family's past.
- My great-grandmother and her twin sister were "mistakes." Their mother was 50-something when they were born...their father, 62 I think. Nobody thought the mother would make it through labor with twins so when they were to be born, the family moved back to Tennesse so the mother could be buried there after giving birth. Turns out, she didn't die.  - My great-grandfather (husband to my great-grandmother above) worked on the Manhattan Project, desiging a specific part of the atomic bomb. I still don't know what exactly he did....he was never allowed to tell us. - I'm related to Princess Diana and when she died, not only didn't we go to England to attend her funeral but my mom wouldn't let me wake up to watch it on TV either. I was little and she thought that I wouldn't understand a lot of the stuff that was going on. Plus, because of the time difference, the funeral was at like 2 AM our time or something crazy like that. I believe we did send flowers, though. |

oh yes.
my parents got divorced when i was 6, and all this time they told me it was because they "didn't get along". sometime a few months ago, my mom told me that my dad cheated on her, which is why. i dont completely believe it, seeing as she has a tendency to excagerate things, but hey... it worries me... |

My father’s family side has related hard of hearing problem. It could be genetic issue. Who knows? The reason I mention this because I’m hard of hearing too .. and i wore hearing aids. I’m very suspicion and aware of that situation due to the fact that my cause of hearing loss is unknown and my brothers seem to be hard of hearing.

Yah...i kinda have a weird story.
Ever since I can remember I've been told I'm adopted from Seoul, Korea. My parents didn't try to hide it from me. When i asked why i looked different and where i was from, when i was a kid they would just say, "Seoul, Korea". And a little bit ago i found out i'm not from "seoul". i'm from somewhere else in Korea...it came up in normal conversation the other day, and i was just like.."oh.." lol i dunno, there you go |

Julia- No, I've never met Prince William or Prince Harry
Spencer- I found out this information from my grandmother and great-grandmother when they were still alive. Also, from my sister when she did a family history project, my mom's uncle (my grandmother's brother) who loves family history and knows just about everything there is to know about our family, and other family members who know a little about our family as well. |

QUOTE(RiC3xBoy @ Oct 7 2005, 6:43 PM) Well, about 4 years ago I found out that I had never lived with my parents until I was 3 years old. Same.  I was taken care of by my Grandmother and Aunts and raised in China for the first three years of my life.. which I had no idea of. Not much of these stories in my life, but my godsister does. She still doesn't know, we're not really allowed to tell her, but she thinks that her parents are married right now, but they aren't. Infact, they were never married.. and there's some confusing explanation behind this that I'm not supposed to know about =) |

People on my dad's side of the family have bad luck with death. One had a ladder fall on them, one fell out of a window, one fell down some stairs, and they all died. And those are only a few examples.

My mother had 1 other child that she aborted..
//Edit// Oh wait, I remember that now. I remember getting unsettlingly upset with her, ignoring her, and making her cry. What can I say, I'm a devil child. |
