A friend of mine did this, and I was intrigued to see if I could even come up with 100 things about myself. It took my three weeks as I had this document open on my laptop and when I would think of something I would write it down. Finally I finished and here it is:
1. I love my friends, I have some really great ones!
2.I went to college to graduate in Psychology or History and ended up with Theatre and History. I see it as the same thing.
3. I love the stars. I love staring into them and thinking about who can see the same ones I can.
4. I love mythology.
5. I love the smell of fresh mornings, especially when camping.
6. I love campfires.
7. I think the sky is beautiful, but I sneeze when I stare at the clouds.
8. I think honesty is important but I think timing is more important. I should probably give God a break on that one.
9. I love my family more and more as we all get older. Not because I didn’t get along with them before but because it is like we are all the same age now.
10. I am sincerely intrigued by the paranormal.
11. My favorite thing is telling stories to Nathan, he gets excited. Even more I love hearing them in detail from Lanae later.
12. I love hanging out with my sisters. I think they are so cool.
13. I am not very good at letting people OUT of my life. Even if I should. I keep friends around for a long time even if I don't talk to some very often. It is hard to shake me. So sorry if you have tried and I am still here.
15. The only nicknames I have let stick are: May May: by Sarah only; Lissa: by Lanae only; M: by Abby and Scott; and Meliss.
16. I love the Rocky movies, besides great memories of home, they inspire me.
17. I love living in the Salt Lake Valley now.
18. When I get near the edge of something I fear throwing myself off of it. Like cliffs. Large holes etc.
19. I like my job, a lot.
20. I love working with students. I love calling their young punk selves out on crap.
21. I think my mom is amazing. And I hope that I can be like her sooner than later.
22. I love flying. It makes me feel like I am a real traveler. Someday I will be.
23. I wish I had more money.
24. I loved college. Every single moment of it!! I met kindred spirits and i love school!!
25. I think that my dating life is HILARIOUS!
26. I love the Symphony. I love picking apart what I hear in my mind, and listening to one instrument at a time.
27. Cats scare me. I think they think too much.
28. I am intrigued by the theories and dogmas of all religions.
29. I know there is a God.
30. I think that free stuff is awesome!
31. I secretly want to be famous.
32. I wish I could apparate like in the Harry Potter books. I think the idea of traveling so quickly is amazing. Though I think it would take the amazement of traveling so maybe it isn’t as cool as it seems.
33. The more I read the more I like it better than movies. Someone said that you can read a book and know in a moment an authors complete lifetime of sought knowledge and in a movie you get nothing like that. I agree.
34. I love movies still.
35. I want to be a paleontologist or an archeologist.
36. I love it when my brothers tease me.
37. I think that dreams should be listened to.
38. I love laying the grass in the middle of the rain.
39. I would never do high school over again. Jr. High even worse.
40. I love popsicles.
41. I love talking walks.
42. I don’t know the words to any songs. I try, but nothing sticks. I am not sure how I memorize anything!
43. I like healthy food a lot, I just can’t afford it.
44. I love to cook for people.
45. I think that chocolate is amazing. I used to be a vanilla person. I am not sure when it changed but I am glad it did.
46. I am a patriot. The first song I remember learning is “God Bless the USA”
47. I am most likely Egyptian, or some sort of Middle Eastern. Along those lines I love it when people think I look Italian, hispanic, jewish, really just anything.
48. I get headaches often.
49. I love who my best friends have married.
50. I love singing in chicken with Ryan.
51. I love sitting in bookstores for hours just reading.
52. I love sitting in USED bookstores finding old treasures. I like looking inside the front covers of books to see what others have written to each other and have thought of the book.
53. Sometimes I think it is my fault that my dad lost his first job, and that really weighs on me.
54. I love any form of entertainment that has me still thinking about it days and months later.
55. I don’t know that words to any song. It amazes me that I can memorize anything for a show.
56. My life is a scored musical. Those tragic ones that you shouldn’t be laughing at but you can’t help it. It is either that or cry.
57. It wouldn’t bother me to be single for the rest of my life, and that thought bothers me. I should want it more than I do. I am just sick of the stories. Oh well at least it is entertaining.
58. I wonder what my friends think the reason to me being single is because it seemed to come so easy for them.
59. I love buying stuff for people. I note in my head when you say you like or want something, and it stays there until I can get it. Another reason I wish I had more money.
60. I love to teach!!
61. I wrote a comic strip in Jr. High with Valerie Brown about a pig named Hamlet. It was during Chemistry: I hated that teacher!
62. I am a hopeless romantic and yet i think everything out logically.
63. I thought Tracy Chapman was a boy until I bought her CD.
64. I like odd numbers better than even numbers.
65. I loved working with the Special Olympics!
66. I am gullible. Severely gullible. I know that I am, and they say the first step is recognition. So I am on my way I guess.
67. I hate seeing what has happened to cartoons these days. They look dark and evil compared to the awesome that was old cartoons.
68. I have a very distinguished laugh.
69. I laugh randomly which makes people feel uncomfortable cause they feel like they have missed a joke but it is just cause my mind is constantly racing.
70. I love symbolism.
71. I love dancing. Not like dancing with the stars dancing, but more of a move to the music any which way that means and i don't care what people think.
72. I love Improv. I think it is because I don’t have to memorize anything, and I can DO anything I want.
73. I admire my mother.
74. I like going to the movie theatre alone.
75. I love studying Masonry.
76. I think that science (as in facts and not theories and postulates) only continues to prove further that there is a God (as in truth, not dogmas of men).
77. I served a mission in New Jersey.
78. I have a degree in Theatre and History.
79. I want to open my own theatre venue someday for everything from open mic and improv to bands and productions.
80. I am scared of needles pulling stuff out and putting stuff into me.
81. I have a striking fear of becoming diabetic. And have wide respect for those that already are.
81. 1/2 Mary Harvey, Florence Thomas, Fatima Warner, and Marcell Bartrand are some of my heroes.
82. I listen to my dreams.
83. I have a book of raps that I have written. I don’t show them to many people.
84. I have "Songs of the week" that are really cheesy awful things to everyone else but I listen to them ALL the time, and really end up being "Songs of the month."
85. I am an abrupt person. When I first get to know someone they think me rude because I just leave a room, or hang up on a conversation without an awkward segway or anything.
86. I like to get in and out of a car fast. Abby used to yell at me for getting out of the car before it was in park, I'm not one to check my makeup in the mirror before driving or double check that the headlights are off before getting out.
87. I am a great parallel parker.
88. I am not a person that wears t-shirts and jeans. I don't wear dresses all the time; I just don't see what is so comfortable about jeans.
89. I like when things are stressful and you have to get a million things done because I am more likely to get it all done that way.
90. I think the lead up to a kiss is far much better than the actual kiss. Don't get me wrong I have had some down right amazing kisses, but the lead up is where I get the fireworks.
91. I am who people make previews and commercials for. If it is a good commercial I AM SOLD! You can get me excited about a product I would never buy in a lifetime. It is hilarious even to me.
92. I wear the color green when I am nervous or need to feel great. I also wear it alot, and rarely can you find me without it on at all.
93. I like popcorn. Mostly with Cathy and Tasha. They make popcorn fantastic.
94. I believe in superheroes. (I think it is the paranormal thing!)
95. It has honestly taken me three weeks to write this thing and I can't think of five more things but I am going to pull them out!!
96. I love getting sunburns. Yep. I like the tight sensitive feeling in my skin. I like the just red burns, nothing more than that. I DO wear sunscreen.
97. I have an addictive personality I think. I think I would be an alcoholic and addicted to gambling if I did either. That is why I stay away: not because I am LDS. Though I think it is genius that the LDS faith says either of those things are real great for ya!
98. I attract crazy people: not as in those that are physically attracted to me are crazy (some of them) but I mean that crazy people in the streets find me out of the crowd and add themselves to the stories of my passing days.
98 1/2. I hate it when people HATE the president so much over the war thing: It is NOT one mans fault we are in the situation we are in. Out country is built on checks and balances and people forget that too often. ALSO: our boys were not drafted each one that is there CHOSE to be there. As bad as it sucks that people make bad decisions I think they can throw rocks when they are perfect. I am not saying you can't hate the president, that is fine: do what you want. . . I am just saying you have to hate a wide group of decisions made NOT one person.
99. When I see homeless people in the street I am overwhelmed with a feeling of helplessness and want to invite them into my home. It seriously is a good thing I don't live alone: I would be housing homeless people for real. I want to be able to hand them a better life; but I also realize that isn't the way it works. Anyways it consumes my thoughts when I walk past them.
100. I learned a lot about myself writing this, and felt a little silly at times. But they are all small insights on my life that I doubt anyone read completely through. But ya know I think that everyone is consistently trying to get to know themselves and at every point in their life and it's the little things that makes us up, so I guess I got to know myself a little better here doing this. And remained positive. If you got through it: I am amazed. And a little cautious because now you know stuff: a lot of stuff. Well WELCOME TO ME!
