25 things about me

1. I love to travel and see the world. I know that when I get older I will be traveling and living other places all the time. My favorite parts of traveling is getting there (it’s a time that you have to just relax and can't do anything else), eating food that you are horrified to try (then loving it of course), meeting new people that have a totally different view of life than you, seeing places from the movies, and making long lasting memories. 2. The dark and night time in general is one of my favorite times. The dark is peaceful or scary or anything you want it to be and I have such fond memories of it. Like, camping and telling ghost stories when its dark, playing hide and seek in the dark, watching movies, jumping on the trampoline, skiing, fireworks, and so much more. Plus, it’s when ninjas are out. ;)3. Rain and snow, and seasons in general actually are the best. Every time it rains or snows or is sunny or something, I say I love it and at the time, I truly do. Colorado is such a great place to live for that reason because there are the best seasons. I dance in the rain, play in the snow, and hang out in the sun. 4. People make me happy. I love listening to people tell funny stories, or make funny expressions, or do stupid stuff. People watching is also fun. In my life, I have meet so amazing people in my life so far, and can’t wait to meet more- I love meeting new people. I am so lucky to have the friends I have and I am thankful for them every day. You guys rock my world. 5. Cooking and baking. SO fun! I love trying to make new things and totally “phailing” or doing amazing and wanting to do it again. Although generally I would rather help someone who knows what they are doing because I generally don’t. ha. 6. One of my pet peeves is people who are constantly complaining. They need to get over it. I am a very optimistic person and am always smiling. I think it’s the only way to get though life because life is hard, and it is too easy to get depressed and feel sorry for yourself then just give up. I will complain occasionally but only because I’m frustrated and I generally end up laughing about it a few minutes later. Smiling and laughing is the best. I think that every day, you can decide to see the glass as half full or half empty and you make the day what it is. 7. I am not perfect by any means and don’t need to be. I love who I am, but I do try to make myself a better person as to never be arrogant. I am not easily insulted or offended, but I do get frustrated when people don’t follow through with their word, which I know I shouldn’t. 8. I love debating with people who won’t get mean about it or offended. I defiantly have some good friends who have totally different opinions that I and I am 100% good with that. I think that different views are good because we really shouldn’t all be the same. 9. I have a list of things I want to do in my life and I have already crosses some off so I just need to add more. One of the most recently crossed off?? Reading a great book, at night, by a fire, while it’s raining outside. =D Good times. 10. Bubble baths are one of my favorite pass times. I love to just sit in candle light, in a warm bath full of bubbles that smell so good. It is so calming and amazing. But also, I love bubbles in general. I love washing dishes and using so much soap that bubbles go everywhere. I love that bubbles float and you can catch them sometimes. 11. Joking with people is so fun. I love playing tricks or being sarcastic because generally people start laughing and it is fun to do. I also love when people joke with me because I will take it well too. If someone can laugh in a good way from it, I generally like it. 12. Karate has always been a lifelong passion for me. I started in first grade when I was six years old. Now I’m almost 18 and still go to karate at least once a week. I hold a second degree black belt in Tae Kwando and American Freestyle Kempo. This summer, I’m hoping to get my third degree black belt and then get a first degree in Arnis and Ninjutsu. My karate teacher is like my second father, and everyone in the sport is so amazing and I have come to see them as family. 13. I don’t like cake. Ok ok, I don’t like most cakes. I do have a few that I like but I don’t get them nearly enough. Haha. But I do like pie. Pie is so yummy and there are so many different kinds. I try to have a slice a week. Maybe the saying should be “A slice of pie a day keeps the doctor away.” Lol. 14. I really don’t like to share personal things, so if I have told you something, you probably mean a lot to me. Uh, yea, nuff said. 15. A person lying is really bothersome to me. I can tell whenever you’re lying so it would be better to be just straight forward with me. I would rather hear a really bad thing, then to listen to someone lie. I think lying just gets complicated and when you start lying to others, you begin to lie to yourself. 16. I love driving in the rain at night. Whether it’s raining then, or has just finished raining, it is so calming and beautiful. I will generally go out driving after a rain just to see it all and be in the dark rain. But dancing or sitting in the rain is also amazing. To feel rain drops fall on me- it’s a gift. 17. I am very passive aggressive. Ok, this is not a good thing and I am really trying to work on it. I am very good at being passive aggressive and it is really hard for me to even see the bad side to it, but I know there is one. 18. I take criticism well. If I ever get annoying or I’m being stupid about something, just tell me. I would rather hear the harsh truth but then fix it because I know what it’s like to not be able to tell someone something they should hear. It’s too frustrating. 19. I have one friend that my karate teacher introduced to me several years ago and now we are such good friends. She has taught me so much and we have had many good times together. I don’t see her nearly enough, and I wish I saw her more, but she is always in my heart and always someone I can talk to. 20. I have no idea where I want to go to college next year but I know that I’m going out of state. I want to eventually become a doctor and work with a program in 3rd world countries. Since I love traveling, and I love helping people, it seems like a great job for me. 21. I like math and find it actually kind of fun. Therefore, I don’t like English at all! Haha. I know it’s really weird but I’m good with that. We all have our different passions. 22. I also love the government. Well maybe not currently, but I love it in general. I think it’s interesting how it works and everything that goes on. I hope that someday I can take part in an official government activity, like being an advisor for medicine in other countries or something. :)23. I don’t even know where to begin looking for songs to listen to so I generally just take other people musical ideas. But I love listening to music. All different kinds even though Rap and Country can get rather annoying. 24. I wish I were really amazing at singing because I’m defiantly not. Same goes with dancing. All I can think of is that maybe eventually practice will pay off. 25. I have tried so many things in my lifetime. Softball, soccer, ice skating, gymnastics, dance, golf, the flute, the piano, the guitar, the harp, and probably way more that I just can’t think of right now. But I will always try something new. I don’t regret things, just look back and laugh, or try to fix it. :)
