100 things about me: November 2005

#30) I have big feet

I wear a size 8.5 in men's. I usually shop for shoes in the men's department because I can ask for an eight and a half. I usually prefer the tennis shoe styles for men than what they make for women.

#29) I would like to go back to college

I really would like to go back to school, but I have made so much more difficult in my head that I haven't really seriously found out whether it would be feasible or not at this stage in my life. I feel like it is something that I should do, but I am not sure what it is that I want to do...considered becoming a teacher, but I am not sure that I really want to do that...I need to pin down what it is that I really want to do...

#28) I have an ugly butt

Okay, I know...it is probably TMI, but it is true...I remember when my sister went through puberty and her face stayed broken out with acne and how I used to tease her relentlessly about it...then I prayed, God! please don't let me have acne on my face! Let it be somewhere no one will ever see, like my butt if I have to have it...Don't tell me God doesn't have a sense of humor. I have always gotten breakouts on my butt. Go to beach and sit in sand: breakout. Go sit anywhere and breakout, pretty much. Detergents and lotions can break me out as well. Usually, it is the cheap-o detergents. So, I stick with Tide and Johnson and Johnson's baby lotion.

#27) I live with my older brother

Okay, it makes me seem that I have it so not together and it is true...Living with an older sib is like living with your parents, except that the rules aren't as harsh and usually it is easier to negotiate changes. Me and my older brother are the best of friends, but I have kinda strained our friendship by having to be so dependent on him.

#26) I don't get online as often as I'd like

so often times I'll have all these great ideas for a blog entry, but am unable to put it down. I don't remember what my original topic for this entry was going to be...

#25) I recently got new training

I got trained to help out in HR/Clerical at work. So, I do that in addition to being a Cash Office Specialist. I enjoy what I do. I like counting the money and I like meeting all the potential team members.

#24) I love playing games

Games are so much fun to play! One of my favorite games is Trivial Pursuit. I'd like to get the new one w/ DVD. That looks like fun. I like Pictionary, Taboo, Jenga, Uno...Monopoly is one I don't really care for, but play just because I like playing games.

I would love to find the Uncle Wiggly game I had as a child. Speaking of childhood games, Chutes and Ladders, Candy Land, Sorry, and Trouble are great fun. Oh! Hi Ho Cherry O is really fun, too!

#23) I read the dictionary

It is something that I have done since I was little. I'd read the dictionary like a book. Absorbing new words and trying to incorporate them into my everyday vocabulary. Back then, I used to be called a walking dictionary, but your brain is a muscle and mine has not been flexed in some time, so I have dumbed down quite a bit. I am reading it a bit more to regain what I lost.

#22) I hate to clean!

Cleaning is a necessary evil. It is such a tedious chore. I would rather do almost anything else than clean. Some people get it twisted and think that because I hate cleaning, I don't. I clean more often than people think. It is something I do b/c I know it needs to be done, but don't enjoy it in the least.

#21) I love Mariah

Guess us mixed girls think alike b/c whatever I am going through, she has written a song about it. I can put a life experience to a lot of her songs. It makes me feel that I know her. I think that were we to ever meet, we could have a lot of fun hanging out. I can't wait for her re-issue of "The Emancipation of Mimi" b/c I want hear the new songs she put on it.

The two songs that fit my mood right now are "Babydoll" from the "Butterfly" album and "One and Only" from "Mimi."

#20) Quiero a aprender espanol

I want to learn to speak Spanish fluently, but not sure of the best way to go about it. I know a lot of useful phrases and can usually fumble through a conversation, but it would be great to be fluent.
