So I think I’m unpopular.
On Facebook everyone has been circulating this “25 Things” – Just a random list of bizarre, or quite ordinary things, about yourself. When you’re done you ‘tag’ 25 people and then they have to do the same. Its just a silly way to get to know more about the people around you.
It seemed like a lot of people were not liking it, but I was secretly hoping someone would ‘tag’ me. Well, it never happened
(hence the unpopular part)
So I’m just going to do it anyway.
#1 – I hate milk. My husband forces me to drink it so that I can get the calcium, even though I eat yogurt everyday.
#2 – I truly believe Mexican food to be the greatest, and could eat nothing but it for the rest of my life.
#3 – I used to want to be a Marine Biologist for most of my childhood, but at the same time I have always had a strange phobia of being too far away from land.
#4 – I don’t wear makeup. Minus eyeliner, I can’t stand the stuff.
#5 – I honestly and truly think my mom is cool.
#6 – I hate pancakes, but I love waffles.
(we don’t own a waffle maker, but when we do I want a heart shaped one! So cute!)
#7 – I’m an extroverted, introvert. I’m always wild and outgoing but really, I just want people to be my friend. On, when I was a kid (like 5 years old) I went around door to door in my neighourhood asking if there were any little girls what wanted to come out and play with me.
#8 – I have never wanted to go to Disney, or any of those other parks and I get a little annoyed when people try to convince me that I’ll love it and that I HAVE to go, it makes me want to go even less.
#9 – I know for a fact that my husband is the cutest, most sweetest, most bestest husband in the world.
#10 – I hate money, and I love giving it away, but I like buying things for myself, even though I have to ‘convince’ myself into purchasing anything (such is the plight of a poor, responsible univeristy student)
#11 – I actually stayed up for a little while last night trying to think of clever and witty things to write on this list.
#12 – Number 11 was actually one of those things I thought of last night that would be witty to write down.
#13 – I cannot stand chick flicks. I love action, adventure and westerns.
#14 – I have these ‘moments’ where the real presence of God and His blessings in my life just hit me. They are rare but beautiful and intense.
#15 – I would rather have an extra helping of veggies than dessert.
(especially canned peas…yum!…great…now I’m craving peas.)
#16 – I’ve had three classes in my time at university that have really stood out among the others and changed my whole world. Epistemology, Christianity and Culture, and Theology of Marriage.
#17 – I LOVE having people over for dinner. I love cooking, preparing the place, the cleaning the laughter…I’d do it every other day if I could (with one day to clean and buy groceries in between)
#18 – I cannot see why people would rather live in a HUGE city like Toronto over the country. The people in the country are so much kinder, less reckless, less self-involved, and more relaxed.
#19 – My favorite color is always changing. I still love orange but I used to hate green, but now its like my #2 color.
#20 – I’ve shaved my head 4 times and got mistaken for a boy all the time – I never want my hair short again. I have also not seen my natural hair color since I was in grade 7.
#21 – I think squirrels are the best! They make me smile every time, not matter how bad of a mood I am in. They look so hyper and happy.
(wow, I can’t believe I’ve thought of 21 things so far!)
#22 – I don’t feel as though I have really truly earned my philosophy and religious studies degree. I feel like I am just starting to get it after four years.
#23 – I’m not really a fan of the beach. This probably stems from being over weight as a child and now having a pretty lousy self esteem. (too bad we didn’t live in the good ol days where full body bathing suits were the social norm)
#24 – I think the homesteads on westerns (the one story with the full wrap around porches) are so awesome.
#25 – I am very aware of mortality (which is a nice way of saying I think about death a lot) BUT it makes me appreciate the life God has given me all the more.
Wow…I’m shocked I made it to 25! Hope this didn’t bore you to tears.
