HOWEVER, I am NOT a sucker for the stupid things you have to 'send to 8 people' or 'move the last name to the first position and then send your favorite color to the person listed in the 6th possition' ... No. That doesn't work for me.
And thanks to a friend, I have yet one more to fill out! I'm sure by now those who are close to me know all the answers, so Ill try to think of some new stuff to add to keep all 3 of my blog readers interested :)
So here is the game...
1. Each person must write 11 things about themselves that readers may not know.
2. Answer the 11 questions the tagger asked, and then ask the people YOU nominate and tag to answer 11 questions.
3. Choose 11 other blogs and link them in this post.
4. Go to their page and tell them.
5. No tag backs!
And we're OFF! 11 things you may not know about me:
1. The first thing you should know is that I went through and edited the grammar, syntax, and capitalization's of this entire post that I copied/pasted from my friend. I doubt they were here errors, and were from the originator of this game...but still! come on people! Bad writing makes my skin crawl. Even though I often make mistakes in my own writing.
2. I am OCD (okay so you may know that about me already) but what you don't know is that it is slightly selective. While I am organized and methodical and lined up and level and straight and balanced in most things in my life, my bathroom, and usually my bed room are trashed either with laundry or general "clutter".
3. I love tattoos. On men's backs, arms, torsos... as long as they are well done and not trailer trashy or stupid (like a hulk outline on your calf, or a Tinkerbell on your bicep. classy [or at least as classy as a tattoo can be] )
4. I love waffles. I have them almost every Sunday after church. With various syrups. I have two waffle irons; one round and one square that my grandma had. That being said, I have food-additions. I can eat the same thing every day for a while. Example: I ate tuna with pickles and cheese for dinner every day for about 3 months once; and I once ate cream of wheat with cinnamon and raisins M-F for over 2 years.
5. I love school. While I complain about hating one class or the next, I love the mandatory learning and reading; as long as it is reasonable and not hundreds of boring chapters. But I love most of the information that I walk away with. (I also love the fact that when I write a paper, I can fluff it up and B.S. a ton of stuff here and there, and the praise I receive is GREAT! - In college, I have currently held a 4.3 for the past 2 years- This can NOT be said for my high school years)
6. I like to read. I mean, aside from 50 shades of gray... I like C.S.Lewis and have most of his books. I love to read church books that's are full of deep doctrine and brings to light topics and ideas that my lil' mind wouldn't comprehend on its own. I like the classics, like 'Love in the time of Collera' and 'The Odyssy'. I rarely get the time to read the books I want, but when I do, that's what I would read.
7. I love shopping by myself; its one of the few things I like to do alone. Yeah, Ill go with friends, but I want to look at the things I want to look at, and go to the stores that I want to go to, WHEN I want to go- Waiting around for others, especially while shopping irritates me. And I don't mean to brag, but I am a pro. I can spend hours roaming stores and dropping hundreds on random clothes and shoes and things that I want.
8. One of my vices, is trashy stupid lame pathetic train wreck style cant look away "reality" TV and competition shows. Honey Boo Boo, Kardatshians, Teen mom, Tosh.o, my big fat gypsy wedding, chopped. I cant get enough, and I cant turn away.
9. My Biological dad (or 'Sperm-Donor-Steve' as I call him) was once an active member of the church, but now he practices Asatru. This is a Norse heathenism, that worships and believes in the Norse gods (Thor, Oden, etc...) He even has a necklace that represents Thor's hammer- kind of like the one in the movie. I don't get it, but I am open minded and feel people should believe how they want.
10. In my life, I have had 2 whole brothers, 2 half sisters, 1 half brother, and (get ready for this...) 13 step siblings.
11. I love my hand writing. My mom has really nice hand writing, and so I practiced and filled notebooks with writing and swirls and cursive, print, and various fonts. It is interesting to see how we (my mom and I) have similar words or letters, but yet, it is a style all its own. and I love it.
11 Questions given to me:
