It's official, I'm old.

BIRTHDAY. HAPPY?
I am having a hard time coming to grips with the fact that I am 22. Wow, that's old. 21 was ok, but 22 is crossing the line.

That aside, today was a pretty good day. Andrew couldn't be here, that wasn't very cool. But I got a new shirt, purse, the book "breaking dawn" & swimming suit. My family took me to Wingers for dinner (yum) and I had some heavenly concrete pie. My brother Trevor made a chocolate cake for me. I got to shower, get ready, paint my toenails, and take a nap! Anyone who is a Mom can appreciate that!

I figured since I made a list about Andrew on his Birthday, I'll make one about me....

22 things about me:

1. I have lived in more places than I can count on both my fingers and toes. Anywhere in Utah, you name it, I've lived there. My family moved a lot. Andrew & I are trying to carry on the same tradition. (not really though)
2. I am supposed to be dead. When my mom was pregnant with me, she & my dad were in a bad plane crash. After that, I was in two car accidents as a baby, with no car seat. My Mom held onto my arm as the car rolled. We all came out untouched.
3. I hate black socks. They are just plain nasty. I refuse to wear them and want to gag when I see others wearing them.
4. I have a big freckle in my eye. It's heriditary. My Mom has some in her eyes, and my Grandma has tons in hers. Some people are a little freaked out by it.
5. I love the smell of dishwasher detergent. The lemon kind. It smells so wonderful, I could eat it.
6. I don't know how to blow my nose. I just can't.
7. I am 5 feet and 3/4 inches. That's tall.
8. I have no sisters. it really bothered me growing up, but now I am fine with it.
9. I love to write. When I was a kid, I wanted to be a writer when I grew up. I still love to write poems.
10. I play the guitar. Well, I did. I want to learn more someday.
11. I love to sing. I sing all the time and I don't care who hears. I like to sing and play my guitar, but that I do alone.
12. I hate the word plaza, via & skew. They are just terrible words that need to be taken out of this language.
13. I love LOVE love taking pictures. I could do it all day. I want more than anything, a nice camera, and some people to pose.
14. I don't like talking on the phone, or when people litter.
15. I love to shop. This isn't unique because 99% of the girl population shares this same interest. But I like to bargain shop. I could go through thousands of clearance racks a day, and feel okay about it. When I am sick, tired, sad, mad, I just need a small dose of shopping, and I am cured for the time being.
16. I hate the word "retard". It hurts my ears. The appropriate word would be "disabled". which brings me to the next one....
17. I love working with people with disabilities. They are the cutest, purest, sweetest people in the world, and theres not a whole lot that makes me happier than making a difference in their lives.
18. I am more like the man in the relationship. I am irresponsible, disorganized and impulsive. I also hate to cook. (I love you Andrew.)
19. I usually have to take a bath every night. It's my way of calming down.
20. I love scrapbooking or doing any kind of craft really. I love it so much that sometimes I forget to breathe.
21. I am athletically challenged. If there is a ball involved, you can count me out. I lack the coordination and interest. I really don't like sports.
22. I love the sun. And chocolate. And travelling.

okay, that's me....
