16 Things about me.

Originally on Facebook:

Ray tagged me.. and I have nothing better to do until my lab at 2:20. I maybe skipped my first class. I feel horrible though.. my voice is on its way to becoming pathetic.. sad times.

These are 16 things that you probably don't know about me:

1. One day I hope to be working at a major Advertising agency in a big city.. I'm scared that I'm never going to figure out how to get there.

2. Most movies that I purchase are impulse buys.. it's kind of like I collect them, but my collection provides me with at least an hour and a half of entertainment.

3. In the past I wanted to be a photojournalist, until I realized that you can't have a soul in the world of photojournalism. Imagine being the one taking a picture of the burning building where a woman is screaming that her son is inside in front of it. If you are not bothered by that.. maybe photojournalism is for you.

4. I'll admit it, I daydream about the future and how I hope my life will be.. where I will live.. what I'll be doing.. and all that stuff. I wish I could fast forward to 5 years from now and see if everything turned out like I hoped it would.

5. I usually skip at least one class every week. It's a bad, bad habit. All of my MWF classes, with the exception of choir, don't have attendance policies, that makes my habit worse. I've skipped 4 this week, and it's only Tuesday.

6. My roommate and I are convinced that we are turning into the same person.. which works for us, because we are quite awesome.

7. There is the tiniest possibility that my mom might have breast cancer. It worries me a whole lot more than it worries her. She tells me everyone is saying that it's probably nothing, but isn't that what they all say? At least we'll know in 48 hours.

8. Most of you have probably noticed, I have a horrible problem with eye contact. I have a bigger problem with it with guys than with girls. This summer my boss criticized me about it, it made me cry, and now I make a conscious effort to work on it every day. It is pretty bad when you have a hard time looking your own boyfriend in the eye :(

9. I have a good taste in clothes, my only problem is, I can't afford anything. So, while I want to be in the perfectly coordinated and accessorized outfit, I'm stuck in the jeans and t-shirt because of money.

10. In the fall of freshman year, I'm convinced that I was depressed. ..and if I had not met Ray and started hanging out with him on a daily basis, I think it would have gotten much, much worse. He gave me something to look forward to at the end of the day, before that all I had was my horrible dorm room to come home to.

11. When I get any extreme of emotion.. whether it be angry, sad, happy, grumpy, etc.. I have to journal it.. mostly for the angry/sad emotions.. but I rather enjoy writing about really happy times. Journaling has always helped me get my emotions out.

12. I'm horrible at giving advice, but I am very good at listening to people.

13. I have always been shy, but if you think I'm shy now, you should have seen me in high school, or even worse, middle school. Once I get to know people, I talk a lot more. I wish I could start a conversation with a stranger like my mom can.

14. In March, my best friend and I had a falling out, in April, we healed our wounds, I'm so glad we did.. no matter what.. I know she will be there for me and I will always be there for her.. we had our issues, we got them out, and now we're better for it.

15. I'm becoming a little bit obsessed with the Twilight series, but I still don't read them in my free time. I'm odd.

16. I've been sick for the past 4 weeks with some sort of sinus infection.. I should probably go to the doctor (yeah, I was running out of stuff to say).

Well.. that killed about an hour.. If I tagged you, either I mentioned you and/or I think you should do this too.
