True. I'm mildly claustrophobic, so large crowds in small spaces tend to be a minor nightmare. Besides, when I'm watching a film I like to be able to talk about it with whomever I'm watching it with—definitely a no-no at a movie theatre. Therefore, the only time when people will catch me in a theatre of any kind is when my choir's performing in some auditorium or other.
The person below me doesn't mind doing "experimental cooking". (I got creative with a recipe for pad thai tonight, so what I ended up with was by no means traditional but actually tasted quite good.) |

False! Unless a crowd is looking to be very disappointed. 
I don't like cooking. I can follow a recipe if I had to cook, but as I dislike it, I never learnt too cook... it would be impossible to "experiment"... anything that is not following a recipe is not likely to be edible.
So really, I can organise all you want, but no cooking for me. And my family doesn't gather in one house for the holidays, so no crowds.
The person below me will have all the family in their home for the holidays. |

False. My mother is trying to get me to stay with her and any large gathering of my family usually ends in murder!
The person below me has eaten something they now wish they hadn't. |

Er, well, I suppose I have to say "yes" to that. I have a few articles of clothing I have to wear to certain sporting events.
I love long walks on the beach. I detest myspace. Large crowds of people freak me out. I had a really bad hot dog the other day that really upset my stomach. And I don't cook. My hubby does, though.
The person below me wishes the weather would make up its mind as to what season it is! (we've had upper seventies one day and mid 50's the next. Everyone is going to be sick!) |

True. The weather in this part of NJ has been awful! A few days ago it was beautiful, and now today we've been stuck with this crappy, misty-type, sort-of-rainy nonsense.
Long walks on the beach at sunrise are very up-lifting. Close second is a really crisp and colorful fall afternoon.
The person below me lives with a 'rabid' sports fan.
Philadelphia Flyers hockey has become a touchy subject in our house lately.  |

False. However, I have several friends who are rabid sports fans, so I find it hard to get away from the sports talk once in awhile. You'd think that I'd know more about players and stats and things like that just from being exposed to them so often, but that is strangely not the case.
I don't really have a good luck charm or a lucky piece of clothing or jewellery, but I do usually carry a round-ish stone with a hole through the centre—both because I like it and because a friend of mine found it for me when we were at the beach about four years ago.
It would be a nightmare to try to fit my whole family in this house. Both my mother's family and my father's family are very, very large. Even when it's just a family gathering for my father's family, we have to go about an hour and a half out of town to a big old farmhouse owned by my Aunt Jane and Uncle Len.
The person below me is exceptionally fond of tea. |

True! But only cold "peach tea", the one you normally drink in summer (is this the correct name? Help, I don't know! This is one of the situations in which reading fanfiction can't help finding the right word... well, I hope you understand it).
Anyway, I'm a real addicted, I can drink a whole bottle in few minutes.
I've read that E.A. Poe was terribly addicted too and he finished being diabetic...
Thankfully, nobody in my house is a rabid sports fan: also I don't really have a good luck charm or a lucky piece of clothing or jewellery, just things that I like very much because of the memories connected with them.
The weather in Rome is beautiful again, in the middle of the day you could go to the beach and pretend it's August!
Crazy world and crazy stupid humans who are doing their best to destroy it and alter all its functions...
The person below me believes in recycling... (I do!) |

True - although I'm very bad at actually DOING it.
The person below me is writing (or has written) an original novel. |

Well, it depends from what you mean with "original".
Not a HP fiction? In this case, true.
Doomspark, may I ask you what your signature means?
The person below me likes Chinese food. |

True! I also love tea- I'm trying to give up coffee!
The person below me likes playing scrabble. |

True, but I haven't played in a long while.
I'm also a tea drinker, but I need at least one good cup of coffee in the morning. Chinese food is good.
Recently I've decided to start working on some children's books I started a few years ago. My goal is to get published before I'm forty. Wish me luck.
The person below me has seen a bear up close and personal--outside the zoo. |

Most regrettably true. The bear population up where I am has gotten so big that from the time that the bears wake up in the spring to the time that they go into hibernation in the fall, there are multiple bear sightings every day. I've seen them wandering through my backyard and down my neighbour's driveway more times than I care to think of. I've also seen a bear caught in one of those cage trap things up at the cottages and campground owned and operated by the family of a friend of mine.
Stupid "Bear Alliance".
On the brighter side—yes, I do like Chinese food (or at least, what we know as Chinese food over here, as I've never actually tasted authentic Chinese food). I had shrimp lo mein for supper last night, actually.
I'm trying to write an original novel just to try my hand at it, but I generally tend to do better at poetry or short stories than at novel-length things.
The person below me likes to solve puzzles like crosswords, jumbles, sudoku, etc. |

True! I love puzzles, sudoku, not so much crosswords as I can't usually finish them. I'm good at logic kind of puzzles, not that good with words.
As for bears, does seen the ones in Bern count? It's not a zoo, but a special place for the animals that represents the city... so they may have been close to me, but they only look cute and beg for bear-cookies... and do silly things in order to win the cookies.
I tried my hand at writing an original story (you can't call it novel... it was never long enough for that). I have parts of it written, but I never finished it. Maybe sometime I can do it. I'd love to write an original novel, even if I never get published or anything.
The person below me reads fics in several fandoms outside HP. |
