Found this over at The Mistress Lounge and thought I'd play along.
* I am shorter than 5’5”: Yes, I am 5'4".
* I have many scars: I have a scar on my stomach from exploratory surgery for what turned out to be a polyp, a scar just below my navel and two dot scars a bit below that from another surgery for what turned out to be pain caused by scar tissue from the first surgery, a scar on my knee from falling off my bike as a kid, and a burn scar on my right arm from accidentally lighting myself on fire while making tea at age 10.
* I tan easily: I lobster easily.
* I wish my hair was a different color: I think it's a bit mousy now that I know what it looks like when I have highlights in it.
* I have friends who have never seen my natural hair color: Considering I have friends who have never seen me at all, I'll answer yes to this.
* I’ve had braces: Yes, just recently!
* I wear glasses or contacts: Yes, I wear glasses. I wore contacts in college but they damaged my eyes and now I quite enjoy having the shield of glasses over my eyes.

* I have freckles: Yep.
* I’ve fallen asleep at work or school: No.
* I failed more than 1 class: I failed organic chemistry even though I tried real hard, then got really depressed and failed physics the same semester. That's when I knew it was time to switch from pre-vet to français...

* Disney movies still make me cry: It depends how close to my period I am.
* I’ve laughed so hard I’ve cried: Often. And lately.

* I’ve had my tonsils removed: Nope.
* I’ve sat in a doctor's office with a friend: With Hay, but only while we have been a couple.
* I’ve had my wisdom teeth removed: Yes. I ate ice cream and threw up all over the floor from the anaesthesia. Nothing bad happened to me otherwise and I stopped taking the pain meds that same night.
* I had a serious surgery: Yes, see the scars section above.
* I’ve had chicken pox: No one is aware of me ever having them but in 2000 my primary doctor did a blood test and told me I've had them already.
* I’ve gotten lost in my city: I've lived in this area my entire life. I may not know exactly where I am sometimes, but if I drive for any length of time I recognize a landmark eventually.

* I’ve sat on a roof top at night: Not at night.

* I’ve played a prank on someone: When I worked for the same employer as Hay everyone used to prank each other constantly. Now I just mess with my officemates' desk toys.

* I’ve been snowboarding: No. I used to date a guy whose sister was a pro snowboarder.
* I’ve had a crush on a teacher: Holy crap, I even had a dream of the guy having sex with me while he recited poetry. Oh, and then there was the matter of my security conference instructor. That was a really pleasant week. :)

Armed with a language arts degree, how did you find yourself in IT?
I've worked in computers since age 14. That field was supposed to provide me with a paycheck until I got to what I really wanted to do. Best laid plans?
