25 Random Things About Me

Alright...my sister wanted me to do this, so I guess I will bare my soul. However, most of you know I am a pretty random person anyway, so some of this might not come as a big surprise!;-)

1) I made it to the semi-finals of the National Geography Bee when I was 12 years old...dang Gila River question did me in!

2) One of my dreams in life is to ride an Icelandic horse...I love their "bangs"

3) If I don't have tea, I don't feel like myself.

4) I wear five different fragrances,choosing each one depending on my mood.

5) I was on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire two weeks after 9/11...It was also the first time I had ever been to New York.

6) I want to adopt a child someday.

7) My first job was as a housekeeper at a bed and breakfast...which was supposedly haunted....though I never saw anything unusual!

8) I speak some French and Russian, and want to learn Spanish and Chinese too...at the very least.

9) I consider procrastination to be my worst fault.

10) I will occasionally sleep with socks on.

11) I must have something sweet at least once a day.

12) I am a huge Disney fan...and I collect Disney Pins...ask me about it sometime!

13) I went on a mission trip to San Francisco when I was 15 with my church youth group. I helped an aids patient who was sick do his laundry. I accidentally shrunk all of his shirts. I still feel horrible!

14) I really have a hard time talking on the phone...I'm trying to do better.

15) I love lodges with big fireplaces...coziness is my favorite atmosphere.

16) I chew violet flavored gum.

17) I can quote the entire A&E version of Pride and Prejudice (6 hours long)...with hardly a stumble or lapse of memory. I've seen it that often.

18) My mom, sister, and I have voices that are barely distinguishable over the phone.

19) I have a strange urge to visit New Mexico.

20) My eyes can look blue or green, or both...depending on what I am wearing.

21) I have two dimples...one that I was born with, and the other that I got near my eye when I fell on a concrete step at age 5. You can only see it if I smile really hard.

22) I like my burgers with no veggies...they interfere with the flavor, I think.

23) I still have my favorite childhood stuffed animal...its the snuggles bear from the laundry detergent.

24) I like spy stuff.

25) I have been known to sing in my sleep.
