About me

Well I'm bored so I'm going to tell ya'll some random things about me. Enjoy!

First one. Admittedly, I got this idea from a friend-of-a-friend's blog and I even stole a few, maybe even word for word (I don't remember), because they applied to me very well.

Sometimes I like to say ya'll even though when others say it I fake gag.

I am a very jealous person by nature.  I'm trying to be better.

Even though I'm army strong I still kinda like to be a girl and get dressed up sometimes.

Sometimes I even like being treated like a girl.

I really love traveling.

I'm afraid of the future.

I expect a lot from myself because I know I can handle it.  I don't expect the same from others because I don't know them like I know myself.

I'm secretly shy.

Apparently, I'm a natural flirt on accident... Grr...

Even though I act kinda dark sometimes I like things to be happy, light and carefree.

Lake Powell is one of my most favorite places in the world.

I'm a really heavy sleeper.  Sleep is something my body selfishly takes even when I don't have time for it.

I wish I could dance well.

My sisters are some of my best friends.  We have good times together.

I look up to my cousins so much.  They are wonderful people and inspire me to be all I can be.

I want six children. We'll see if that changes when I actually give birth to one.

When I give short, one-word answers for questions or am simply uncharacteristically quiet, it's because A) I don't want to talk about it, or B) I have a lot that I could or possibly want to say about it but I can't figure out how to word it.  Give me a minute and I might figure it out, but usually it's reason A.

I don't like making decisions because I don't want you to end up doing something you don't enjoy.

I'm not very good at goodbyes.  

I love drawing, writing, dancing, music and basically creating any form of art.  However, it does not mean I hold any talent in any of those areas.

I'm not the most organized person (understatement of the century), but I still like to organize things.  (Sorting at the food bank is my favorite).

I would love to have a really big gothic revival, second empire, richardsonian romanesque, or renaissance revival style house with towers and secret passage ways.

I wish I had an interesting name that meant something to me personally.

I hope to write a book someday.

I love eating, but who doesn't!

I get stressed really easily.  It's not very healthy.

I don't do well with emotional trauma.  My body stops functioning and I stop caring to look after my needs.  Once again, not very healthy.

I'm am deathly afraid of losing control of mind, body, or spirit, spiders, clowns, needles, doctors, and any type of drug.

I act tougher than I feel.

I have really crazy insane dreams. I kinda like it.

I don't sleep well (probably because of the above fact).  I wake up many times throughout the night. The fairly consistent time is between 3:05 and 3:15.

I don't really think.  Well I think but if someone asks what I'm thinking I can't really recall it in any form of language on this earth today.  I can't wait to learn the Adamic language!

I really want to learn Italian.

I really want to go to Venice or Greece. Or both for that matter.

I love eyes.  No two pairs of eyes are the same.  Each has it's own burst of color and spark of life.

I sleep with a stuffed dog named Roger every night.  I love him.

I wish I could dress more like a girl and more trendy but I feel like I'm faking it when I try...

I love shark tooth necklaces.  They are hard core and great conversation starters.  You have no clue how many people I've met starting with the inquiry, "Hey is that a shark tooth?"

I love words.  Sound, meaning, spelling, etymology, and all.  

I also love using words most people would replace with a more common word. Such as "inquiry" in the place of "question."

Muscles are fascinating.  It's not only because I'm a girl either.  Even muscles on animals fixate me.

Heck who am I kidding.  Every creation of God is entirely captivating.

I hate when needles are pointed at me, but I love doing the pointing.  Drawing blood is just too much fun.

I have a 5 year old boy trapped inside me. He doesn't take to kindly to the blonde population.

I love to learn random new things.  For example (and many of you probably already knew this... yeah yeah yeah), the spelling "blond" without an 'e' is used when describing "males, mixed gender, or uncertain gender" and the spelling "blonde" with the 'e' is used when describing the female gender.  And I certainly hope by "mixed gender" a group of males and females is meant because otherwise my mind just gets awkward.

Mythology, while I take none of it seriously, holds a large portion of my interest and shapes much of my conversation.

I love to read.

I wish dragons were real.  And fairies and leprechauns and unicorns and pegasi and all sorts of mythological creatures.

I abhor the english language and all of it's grammatical and pronunciation exceptions.  But I am thankful I'm not speaking french.  

Oh I also hate standard units of measurement. Metric makes so much more sense.  People need to stop whining that it will be too hard to change.

I also kind of hate 12 hour clocks.  They aren't as hated as standard measurement, but 24 hour clocks are so much less ambiguous.

I'm a suck up, through and through.

It's hard for me to give my trust to people.  If I think you deserve it I will try to trust you. That still doesn't mean it will come fast.

I lie... a lot. It's somewhat compulsive.  I'll lie without thinking then say to myself, That's not true, stupid, but then I feel too dumb to correct myself.  The problem is that I see it more as story telling than lying.  They aren't huge.  They're just stupid.  Like sometimes I tell people that I ate cereal for breakfast when I really had eggs and it just comes out.  It's not like I forgot it's just what comes out.  I know, it's retarded.  I guess I like to see what I can get away with.  Another problem is sometimes I get myself to believe the lie so I'm not even lying anymore because I don't even recognize the truth.

I'm nerdy.  I like online role playing games, anime, manga, live role play, math, and the history channel.

My dream used to be becoming a Navy SEAL because they are all things military.  Too bad I was born into the wrong body.

Feet are gross. 

So are raisins.  I think of raisins like old people grapes, and I don't eat old people. I do, however, eat corn nuts which I see as corpses of corn.

Mushrooms have the most unnatural, disgusting texture ever. The end.

I pretend to sleep a lot.  I also sleep a lot, but I pretend a lot too.

I like to pretend to be all deep and profound.

I like to think that I am the exception. Sometimes I get myself to believe it too.

I'm trying to be more patient... and more understanding and forgiving, and mature, and responsible, and trusting, and loyal, and nurturing, and gracious, and humble, and polite, and sensitive, and grateful, and loving, and honest, and basically I've made too many promises to try to be better in too many things all at once and they're all getting neglected because I can't take it.

If I don't laugh at your funny story or joke it doesn't mean it wasn't funny or that I don't care.  I'm either A) holding my amusement inside, or B) my mind is preoccupied with something. It's usually the first reason but either way don't take it personally.

I like pirates a lot.  I want to go live a life of adventure on the sea... But it would probably get really old.

I a tad OCD.  Not in the useful way, just the insane way.  My room is a mess so that OCDness escapes me.  I do, however, eat waffles a very certain way, close cabinets, pockets, backpacks, purses, mailboxes, lockers, etc..., space things evenly and straight, touch things that are furry or soft looking, try to flip all light switches the same way while keeping the light on/off, flip cards in a deck all right side up, and a myriad of other insanities.

I think everyone should cross their sevens and z's.

I am rubbish at acting so don't ask me to play charades unless I'm REALLY hyper and tired (mormon drunk).

Well that's all I want to ramble on about... I hope you enjoyed the randomness!!
