25 Things You Always Wanted To Know About Me!
1. I dislike rude people and feel that everyone should learn manners. Parents teach your children these words – “please”, “thank you”, “you’re welcome”, “may I” “hello”, “goodbye”, “Mr.”, “Mrs.”, “Miss”, “excuse me.” Is that so tough?
Gestures are good too- shaking hands, opening doors, waving, eye contact, smiling, and talking without food in your mouth.
2. I love music soooooooo stinkin’ much! I pretty much listen to it every day. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about it or at least dream about recording it. I love playing my guitar. I may not be that good, but I love to play and sing.
3. I love mustard on my grilled cheese sandwiches. I only know of like 3 other people that do. I know it’s strange and twisted, but it’s true and I love them!
4. I still sleep in a twin bed that I had when I was 6 years old. I love it, it’s comfortable, and I live alone. Why change now?
5. I think my sister is the funniest person on the planet. No one will change my mind on that one. She can make me laugh in any situation and then again she can make me cry too from laughing so hard or from being angry at her. She’s great. She’s my best friend!
6. When my girlfriends and I were in college we stated that when we are old and our husbands all die off we will move to Florida and live in a house like the Golden Girls. Sad, but true and the plan still seems to stand. I was deemed as Dorothy, the retired teacher. Go figure.
7. I am very close with my cousins. We grew up together at my grandparent’s house on the weekends and we are very close in age. This stands on both sides. I am close with cousins on both sides of the family.
8. I live in the same apartment that I lived in 20 years ago when my parents first divorced. It kind of looks the same. I have a few memories. Don’t remember moving in the first time, but I sure do the second time.
9. I often wonder what life would be like if my parents were still married. I wonder if they think about that as well.
10. I loved high school! I cried the day I graduated. I loved high school so much that I decided to go back to teach at the high school that I attended. I would not give up until I got the job. I love my job, the students, and the people I work with! What more could I say or ask for?
11. I once thought about moving to Haiti to teach at a missionary school for a year or a summer. I love it there! 4 mission trips later and I am I am still not tired of it!
12. I also thought about quitting college to become a missionary. After some prayer, I knew my calling was teaching and short-term missions.
13. I hate snow with a passion!
14. I would rather have a cold for 3 weeks than throw up for a day! It’s so gross and it’s the worst feeling in the world. I would rather gargle shards of glass.
15. My favorite holiday is the 4th of July. Independence Day. That’s something to celebrate!
16. My younger sister of 2 years can beat me up or at least she used to. We have not had a fight in a few years. I think I can maybe take her now. I have taken kickboxing. I have some skills.
17. I am my father’s daughter and it scares me sometimes.
18. I believe that Elton John is better than Billy Joel, but Fleetwood Mac is my favorite band and is way better than both. You can take that to the bank!
19. When people are late to events, it is a sign of arrogance. That person is holding everyone else up and assuming that they are more important and worth waiting for. Newsflash! It is rude and it holds up everyone’s schedule for the rest of the day putting them into a rush and a stressful time instead of a stress free time. I understand if something happens and you are unable to be on time.
20. President and government bashers drive me crazy. You have the right to an opinion, but if you didn’t vote, you don’t have the right to complain. Everyone should respect our president regardless of party affiliation. They are all men and not everyone is perfect. I can think of plenty of things that all the presidents in history did good and bad. He without sin, may cast the first stone. I would love to see half of the people who complain about our government and country try to run it with what little they know. See how far they get. We live in a great nation built upon solid principles. Let’s keep it that way and not let society tear it apart with our negativity. I will get off my soapbox now.
21. Ice cream is my favorite food. It’s not a dessert, but a food.
22. I refuse to read the book “Twilight.” Vampire love does not thrill me.
23. In high school I would get homesick when I would travel, now I love to travel and be away!
24. Someday I would like to be a principal or a curriculum coordinator. That is in the future. Right now I am teaching. That’s where my heart is for the time being.
25. I became a Christian when I was in 5th grade when my best friend witnessed to me. I had always gone to Sunday School and church, but the true and real commitment was not there. I rededicated my life to Christ when I was a sophomore in college and it has been awesome ever since!
