Apparently, I am only 25 things. Hmm.

So there's this silly thing running around on facebook that forces you to post 25ish things about yourself for your friends/the world to know about you.
At first, I was completely opposed and scoffed at this idea, how silly, my friends already know me, I thought.
Then, after being tagged in at least 8 maybe 10 of them by my pals, I finally succumbed to the madness and joined in the festivities.
Here it is. Gobble it up. There will be a quiz later, hah.

1. I have recently discovered my artistic side and am pursing it full force, oh dear I may be way in over my head, but am not looking back.

2. I LOVE Oregon. And no one can convince me that there is any state better. Even if you try to convince me and I relent, I really don't, I will always love it. Come and visit, you shall see.

3. I start and finish every day with a constant flow of music. This will sound dramatic, but it's like my heartbeat. It keeps me alive and exciting.

4. There is nothing better than cruising in my jeep, on a hot day, with friends, a delish beverage in hand, and belting...just belting.

5. I went to Italy 2 years ago and fell in love. I must return.

6. I have a serious addiction to scarves. I have a draw full, like 25 plus. They are SO magnificent. I love cold weather, the clothes are just so much cuter.

7. I am a five year old, and love PB+J's, goldfish, apples & cheese and grape jucie. My kids will love me for it. hah.

8. I was a cheerleader all throughout high school and miss it to this day. It was the only place where my loony-ness was not only accepted, but applauded and was put out in some ribbons and a short skirt for the world to see and be excited about. However, my body is eternally jacked up as a result, perfect. But I LOVED every second, best part about high school.

9. My family is ridiculous, people always say that...but its really true. They made me who I am and without them I would make no sense. They are my favorite thing about my life.

10. I serve a God who no doubt thinks I'm and idiot, and loves me insanely regardless. Literally, hallelujah.

11. I love taking pictures, there's just something about it that feels like a crazy trick that only I can control. It's invigorating. I wouldn't call myself a photographer yet, but I hope to be some day.

12. I am a very tactile and smell attached person. If there is a candle or anything that could potentially smell good anywhere near me... I will smell it. And tell you how good it smells (and maybe even give and obscure/exact description of it) and then ask you to smell it. I do the same thing with texturey-looking surfaces. My hands and nose are always moving everywhere, wherever I go.

13. I love pointless teen dramas. I could give you a detailed plot line at any given moment of Gossip Girl, The OC, Gilmore Girls….You name it, its TV gold.

14. I love being outside, it’s so rejuvenating. Camping, wakeboarding, hiking, climbing on things, having adventures. THE best.

15. I could never have a desk job, it would break every exciting bone in my body.

16. I really enjoy being an encouragement to people. To be able to be there for them when they have no hope or any good ideas of what to do. I just love being able to be supportive.

17. My favorite thing is to have no plans. No destination, no time frame, no ideas. I love not having anything set in stone, and then just seeing where it ends up. It gets my blood pumpin.

18. I am deathly afraid of man-hole covers in the street. It is not at all irrational because they MOVE, that’s their whole purpose, and to walk over them knowing full well that they move is just insane. Oh, and storm grates too, can’t do those either.

19. I hate seafood of all kinds. I keep trying, but I’m afraid there’s no hope for seafood and me. We are a lost cause.

20. I know every word to every Dashboard Confessional song. They are my soulmate.

21. My friends are legit. Home friends, school friends, they are all wonderful and hilarious and God picked them out so well for me. They are adventurous, loud, silly, loving, smart, passionate, beautiful, completely ridiculous, driven and all seem to think I’m cool as well, which is a plus. I am richly blessed.

22. Being an aunt is THE coolest thing I've ever experienced, and my nephew is SO boss.

23. I think a man in flannel is THE sexiest thing ever. And now that it’s in style you can imagine how insane it makes me. When there was a Lumberjack GYRAD or something last year I had to leave the room because it was just way too sexy.

24. I love getting ready in the morning; picking out what I’m going to wear is my fave part of the day. There are so many choices, and it feels like creating art; an outward expression of my inner emotion. Think about that the next time you get dressed… its so fun.

25. Jean on jean is repulsive and should not be allowed in public. I wish the fashion police was real, I would LOVE that job. Making American citizens fashion sense suck less, one day at a time.

25. I have super stubby everything. Stubby fingers, toes, hands, legs, you name it. I am a stub.

26. I get lost everywhere. Even in my hometown. And am a terrible driver, although I am making an effort not to suck so much, who knows if that day will ever come.

Love, love, love.
