conformity

So I decided to start a blog. Mainly because every one and their dang mom has one, yes my mom has one too, and also because I just felt like it. Not too sure what I'll write about but probably some random things here and there that may or may not interest you in the slightest bit. No biggie though, like I said, everyone and their mom has a blog so there's plenty of reading to do. :)

This first post is one I put on my facebook so most of you have probably already read it. I've made a few changes and changed the number to 20 instead of 16 - random numbers like that kind of weird me out. Also, anyone can comment and anyone can do this on their own if you'd like. Enjoy!

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are invited to write a note w/20 random things, facts, habits or goals about you. At the end, choose at least 20 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I think you are an amazing person and I want to know more about you. But, if you don't respond that will not change.

1. My family means the world to me. We are extremely close and I love hanging out with them more than some of my own friends. We always laugh and have a good time.
2. I think it's crazy and somewhat scary how a lot of my friends are getting married now and some even having kids. But, at the same time, I can't wait to be married and be a mom.
3. I've wanted to go to Cape Town, South Africa for a VERY long time and my parents think I'm absolutely crazy for wanting that. I would LOVE to see penguins on the beach.
4. I love staying at home and watching movies. It sounds a lot more fun to me than parties and hanging with a bunch of random people.
5. I'm NEVER healthy and I've learned to live with that.
6. I can't stand people who have no respect for others. I guess it was the way I was raised but honestly, I find a disrespectful person to be very unattractive.
7. I have a sudden desire to make a drastic change in my life but I'm not sure what to do or what I even want to do.
8. I'm obsessed with buying jeans and shoes. More specifically, converse, vans, flats and ed hardy sneakers.
9. I'm secretly glad I have a heart problem. I think I took life for granted before and never realized how much I have to be grateful for. It's brought me closer to my family and even though it's really hard and I'm really scared, it has honestly blessed me.
10.I love people watching, long drives, walks in the fall, great photography, quotes on starbucks cups, postsecret, poetry, sitting in a coffee shop reading a book and life lessons.
11. I really want to go to school for nursing or radiology and I hope I can get a job at OHSU or Doernbecher. I think after spending so much time there and seeing how much they truly care and it's not just a "job" to them, has really opened my eyes and heart. *no pun intended* :)
12.I'm secretly terrified of dying young, sudden death, heart failure and heart attacks. I try to hide my fears to seem like this isn't bothering me but in reality, I would LOVE to meet a person my age who is going through the same thing.
13. I hate being really girly. I enjoy doing my hair (sometimes) and wearing make up (sometimes) but I also really enjoy getting dirty, fishing, fast food, not worrying about my weight and doing nothing with my hair. I think it's a bit more attractive.
14. I'm craving individuality, creativity, optimism, pure happiness, humor, change and a grande london fog tea latte.
15. I can't wear heels - EVER! I look like a man walking in them. I'm content with flip flops, flats and sneakers.
16. I want to dye my hair blond and red and cut it short. I also want to pierce my nose. I think it'd be really attractive, just not on me.
17. My aunt is my best friend and other half. It's amazing how much me and her have in common and how much we are alike. I can't wait to live with her and be able to have her around whenever.
18. My nose is crooked and it drives me insane. From one side, it's really cute and from the other side, it's big and not so attractive.
19. I think my parents are some of the most amazing and entertaining people I've ever met. They are so incredibly supportive and accepting.
20. I absolutely love the movie Juno and wish I had a sense of humor like hers. Life would be SO much easier that way. :)

Well, that's all for today or for now. Have a great day folks and enjoy my ramblings. :) *LOVES*
