I'm a bit of a quirky kid. I realize that everyone is, but sometimes I feel especially so. I started thinking of some of my quirks tonight, so I decided to list them. The list grew easily. So here I am in all my glory:
-I don't like listening to voicemails, but get frustrated when an unknown number calls and doesn't leave a message.
-I'm one of the few people under the age of 40 that adores black licorice. I could eat it any time. Do not like licorice tea though. Definitely do not like that.
-I just spent $80 on essential oils, and I recommend them all of the time. Slowly turning into my parents....
-I talk to myself a lot. :)
-If a book really captures my attention, I am hardly capable of doing anything else until it's completed.
-I regularly race the people on the treadmill next to me. I can't stand when girls put their jackets over the controls.
-I peel my grapefruit- like an orange. It takes forever.
-I hardly ever use condiments, but I use tons of seasonings.
-I drink herbal tea 2 or 3 times a day in the winter. Peppermint's my favorite.
-I love cloudy days, and I really miss storms.
-I only have good phone conversations in the car usually. Otherwise, I am bored with the phone. I do realize that this is not nice and definitely unfair. Sorry family.
-I haven't had a crush on a boy in 7 months. That's a long time.
-I stay up late at night even though I prefer mornings.
-I make fun of my students to stay sane, but I absolutely love them. -I like short boys better than tall boys.
-I don't like Southern boys. This is not a rule, but it might as well be. I want to like them. I even try to like them. I still don't.
-I love LSU football, but I would really love if BYU was ever good enough to beat them.
-I love wearing cowgirl boots.
-Whenever I feel like I'm losing control of my life, I change my hair. It makes me feel rebellious. I know it's not.
-I hate hearing people eat and can't sit next to anyone eating unless there is quite a bit of background noise. I don't particularly enjoy other people hearing me eat either.
-I'm a human thermometer. My students make fun of me all the time. I turn red when I feel embarrassed, feel flattered, laugh too hard, smile to big, get upset...you get the point.
-I don't like peanut butter, have no problem resisting chocolate, but have a very high tolerance for any type of chewy candy.
-If I like a movie I can watch it again and again. (I've lost track of how many times I have seen Anne of Green Gables, The Man From Snowy River, or Pride and Prejudice)
-I have a huge rib cage. People even comment on it.
-I love country music and grew up near Nashville, yet I have never been to a single concert.
-I always win the I have never game. I don't know if that actually makes me a winner. :)
I know there are more, but that's what I came up with in 15 minutes tonight. There are definitely soooo many more....
