1. I'm adopted. Yes, I was a baby when this happened. It took a year for my adoption to go through the court system (they lost my papers once). Yes, I've met my birth mother & no, we no longer are in contact.
2. I'm obsessed with Harry Potter. Not to the point of knowing EVERY single character and super detailed things, but nonetheless, I love it like woah.
3. I'm so much more of a nerd than people might think. I try to hide this, like, all the time. In fact, I'm surprised I'm even married to someone who I don't think is all that geeky (although he thinks he is). And he's good looking.
4. I'm incredibly insecure. Compliments make me incredibly uncomfortable.
5. I am not a fan of hugging (unless drunk). Yes, I hug my family and my husband, but as far as hugging my friends, I don't particularly like it unless I've known them a super long time. Sometimes even then it still makes me uncomfortable.
6. I watch the Disney Channel, like, a LOT. "Wizard of Waverly Place" is my favorite show on the Disney Channel. I like watching the Disney Channel b/c I get sick of all the reality tv/sex talk/whatever that's on normal television.
7. I'm not religious. I'm stuck in a place where I don't know what to believe. I hate when people preach to me about God/Jesus/whatever. Just leave me be.
8. I love British culture. I want to live in the UK. And before you even ask if I've even been there...yes, I have, and I'm going back this summer to visit my in-laws.
9. I'm overly nice. I know that sounds really, um, egotistical about myself, but I am. I hate confrontation. When things bother me, I just bottle it up and stay nice to whomever it was that upset me. If I don't like someone for whatever reason, I'm still nice to them. I don't speak up for myself for ANYTHING. However, in all the years I've been this way, I'm really trying to kick the habit.
10. I'm obsessed with makeup. I could live in Sephora. Makeup Forever is my favorite brand of makeup, and it's one I would endorse to anyone. I can totally justify spending $40 on my Makeup Forever HD Foundation (in #110) every 3-4 months. I could even think of ways to justify spending $200-plus in one single visit. I have to stay away from the mall now that we have a Sephora here in Champaign, IL. I'm only allowed to go when I do need foundation (or something else that I'm out of). I usually take Mike with me since his attention span for Sephora is nil. He makes sure that I don't start wandering about the store staring at things or over buying items.
And those are 10 random things about me....if you even cared. But whatever. Awkward Jared Leto loves you.
Hi, I stopped by from 20SB :) I like your facts, it's nice of you to open up like this. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHa, I found you through 20sb as well, and I must say, we have a LOT in common!
ReplyDeleteI'm super nerdy. I love Harry Potter more than anyone should, and video games too. I really love British culture, and though I have not been there, it's my dream to visit. (Also I am slightly obsessed with Doctor Who). I'm insecure and not religious, and I too enjoy the Disney channel because of the lack of reality shows.
Reading this was almost like reading something I'd write! I am definitely following your blog. :)
