So I know I promise a thought provoking one... but College have kept me busy and fried my brain... so for the moment we will just do this pointless, passing the time blog.....
1. I have put off doing this because I'm pretty sure my life is not interesting enough to come up with 25 things worth reading....
2. I love being active: rock climbing, weight lifting, volleyball, racket ball, walking, snowboarding, hiking... yet I can be the laziest person in the world too
3. I got scuba certified this past summer but have been diving since a family vacation a couple of years ago (Mexico is really lax about the whole certification thing...which means it is lucky our guide didn't leave us and we didn't all die...)
4. I always wanted to learn how to surf but the west coast of Florida means no real waves... I almost drowned learning during a hurricane off Lido beach once though...
5. My sister and I used to think my family needed a reality show because we are sooo weird... our dinner conversations alone would make one interesting 30 minute show...
6. My two best friends total anywhere from an 8-9 year age difference... one is soon to be 18 and the other is 25
7. I played varsity volleyball all four years of high school as well as travel ball for two... and will automatically love anyone who will play with me here at Belmont...
8. I used to want to be a music supervisor (person who picks the music for films) and am obsessed with how music works in movies...
9. Also along that note... My goal is to own pretty much every movie I ever liked... I'm well on my way...this semester alone I've bought about 40 movies...
10. Again along those lines... I would love to have a media room in my house... like with the walls just lined with shelves that have books, records, cds, movies, magazines... whatever all over them... with a big fire place and an big old cumfy leather couch to read on... and maybe like a music room attached with like every instrument you could ever want to play in there... haha even though I can only play the piano as of now...
11. oh ya... I played classical piano for 14 years... but had so many teachers with different techniques and stuff that I wouldn't call myself good enough to have played for that long... I quit lessons my senior year of high school because all my teacher's student were like going to Julliard and crap like that and I just didn't have the passion to compete at that level anymore... I played mostly because my mom insisted on it (it was the source of lots of fights in high school)... but I love music and love to play for fun...can't sight read to save my life...
12. I went to summer school in second grade so that they wouldn't hold me back a year because I couldn't really read... my sister jokes that I was stupid until 5th grade when all of a sudden some test decided that I was gifted...
13. I feel a calling to go into ministry but have idea what that looks like... maybe sharing in the pastoral ministry of my future husband, or being a missionary...that seems absolutely possible for me.... I'm not really sure all I know is that I want God to be at the center of EVERY single thing I do everyday... I want that to be the total purpose of my occupation as well....
14. My major is general business with a minor in Christian leadership... the only reason I'm not double majoring in both is because I would need a foreign language for a C.L. major... and I CANNOT learn languages....that is a pathetic reason...
15. I'm a huge Harry Potter fan...I listen to them on tape at night to help me fall asleep....(my roommate calls my ipod the Potter pod) and will instantly love anyone who will discuss the books with me...haha
16. I don't easily make friends because I have trouble opening up and trusting people at first but once I do...I consider them a friend for life... I would rather have only a few close like family feeling friends than a lot of people to hang out with....
17. No one has ever been able to guess my correct weight or clothing size...
18. I eat the stickers on fruit because they are edible...
19. I can't spell... I got straight C's in that subject for as long as it goes on your report card....usually things come out phenetically...(haha see can't even spell that... or just like i can't type... I would say spell check underlines about 60-80 % of the things I type....
20. I can't touch my toes...or do a handstand...or a cartwheel
21. I LOVE fast food... at some point in high school I went to a fast food restaurant everyday... for at least 2 months...
22. My first word was purple... and I used correctly in context... my mom was asking my sister what color headband she wanted at the store and I just answer: purple!
23. I give my opinions way to easily which I consider as something I need to work on...
24. I've lost my voice at every sporting even I've ever officially played in... and it takes me about a week to fully gain it back...
25. I'm a total pack rat... I keep every bag I get from stores...save all the boxes that I get packages in...all the containers that shampoo and stuff comes in...cards... movie tickets... magazines... old cloths... jewelry... wrapping paper... well lots...
haha so there we go... I'm sorry to anyone who actually read all of these!
