I remember being in preschool and having the teacher as me to slow down while saying the alphabet, and I stubbornly stuck to the idea that L M N O and P were not, in fact, separate letters.
Obviously they are just one giant, multi-purpose letter with a longer name than W.
Anywhoooo, I stumbled across this lovely MySpace-esque survey while blog-stalking the lovely and ever-laugh-inducing Rachel Rydalch, and couldn't pass up the opportunity to re-visit my early high school obsession with filling them out.
If you're already bored, feel free to pass up this chance to read 26 facts about me (it's not like I'll ever find out); if I've sparked your curiosity, there is no shame in continuing to read (again, no one will know). So here it is:
A is for age: 19 years, 7 months, 6 days and 32 minutes (at least at this moment; by the end I'll be a little older!)
B is for breakfast today: One delicious bowl of cinnamon toast crunch. It's the taste you can see!
C is for currently craving: A nice conversation with the lovely Sarah Adams. Because she always makes me smile :)
D is for dinner tonight: I honestly don't have the slightest idea.
E is for favorite type of exercise: Running! I just need to do more of it so I don't feel so lame and out of shape.
F is for an irrational fear: An elephant landing on my house. Okay, not really. But whenever someone says, "guess what!" I want to say, "OHMYGOSH did an elephant land on your house???" A) it's the first thing that comes to mind and it's really funny in my head and B) it's completely improbable and I dislike when people ask silly questions like that. I mean, how would I even begin to guess what you're going to say most of the time? There are infinite possibilities and it's just a lot of work. So just tell me what you want to tell me, okay?
Anyway......
G is for gross food: Dirt-flavored carrot and assorted fruit smoothies. Courtesy of my father. ;)
H is for hometown: Okay, here's the thing: does "hometown" = place of birth or where you grew up and have real childhood memories and all that good stuff? I can never figure that out. So... I was born in Saipan, I've lived in Spokane, Bellingham, a bunch of other places in the Seattle-ish area, Puyallup (which I actually remember) and then I guess Auburn is where I really grew up and have lots of happy memories that I will forever cherish.
I is for something important: Blankets! They are wonderful things.
J is for current favorite jam: As in... jelly with seeds and junk? Music? Because I like strawberry jam. And anything Mika at the moment.
K is for kids: They are the greatest!
L is for current location: My bed! It's very comfortable. More so than the broken computer chair. :)
M is for the most recent way you spent money: Fuel for my car. *sigh*
N is for something you need: WATER. It keeps me alive and I will always be grateful for that.
O is for occupation: Currently........... nada.
P is for pet peeve: Haha, well based on my tangent on letter F... when people use "guess what" or dramatic sighing or laughing unnecessarily loud at a text (etc....) to get you to ask what they find so exciting/amusing/shocking/sad/whatever. If you want to tell me something, JUST SAY IT.
Q is for a quote: "All I want to do is eat ice cream. Eat ice cream, pretend to be a kid, and forget about those stupid boys..." I came across this recently. Cheesy old 90s shows really had it right! ;)R is for random fact about you: I would really, truly rather spend a night watching movies and eating food that is horrible for me with a couple people I actually care about than go out and do whatever "normal" college kids do. Call me boring but the whole partying scene isn't really my thing.
S is for favorite healthy snack: Apples and peanut butter :)
T is for favorite treat: Ice cream, no doubt about it.
U is for something that makes you unique: I have this weird scar on my leg from middle school, when I ran into a tree stump in the dark at camp. My friend and I were running from a guy dressed as Santa Clause because if he found us, we'd have to swap beads with him and wouldn't be able to get the medicine needed to save the camp mascot. It was really a matter of life and death.
V is for favorite vegetable: Broccoli, ever since I was little.
W is for today’s workout: Does walking to the mailbox count?
X is for X-rays you’ve had: The only ones I can think of are all the ones the dentist/orthodontist take.
Y is for yesterday’s highlight: The delicious dinner my wonderfully talented father prepared!
Z is for your time zone: Pacific!
Now you possibly know a little more about me!
And I have aged a total of 37 minutes since I started.
(I was interrupted by my sister somewhere around letter P).
Okay, I promise my next post will be something worth your time.
Byeee.
