25 Random things about yourself

[dragonfly411]

They can be anything. Anything you want. I'll start.

1)I arch my eyebrows when I'm mad.

2)I cannot decide on what my favorite food is. I've tried many times, and generally my top choices include cheese, but then I think about things like venison, baked fish, cajun style grilled shrimp, sushi, bananas foster, tiramisu, chicken and dumplings, lasagna........

3)I wasn't girly growing up, so I feel like I'm constantly playing catch up with things like hair and makeup. I still can't put my hair up in a bun and have it look effortlessly cute. I'm 24.

4)I can catch more fish than you.

5)I can't just chew square of gum. If it's the tall pieces fine, sure I can, but things like Orbit, or Dentyne Ice.... come on. I need some volume here to chew on.

6)I don't like when things I love doing become a chore, or a job.

7)I want to smack people who chew with their mouth open.

I love to travel, and usually the places I go have a very deep and long lasting effect on me. I feel homesick for places I've only visited once when I was young, or places that I go to frequently.

9) I cannot paint my nails by myself without it being a disastrous mess.

10)My favorite one exercise is squats.

11) I love yoga

12)I can maneuver a truck or four wheeler or boat with all the best of the guys.

13) I have guns and I know how to use them.

14) I have a knack with animals. I am especially good with horses, but am also generally the dog trainer in my family.

15)I'm territorial, and possessive.

16) I'm an honest and loyal friend. But I don't trust easily at all, and once you lose my trust, that's it, done.

17) I hate dresses and skirts.

1 I have a very deep love for music. I love almost every type of music, and it makes me emotional.

19) I'm a daredevil, and I love a good adventure.

20) I have a double jointed finger.

21) I'm too sensitive. I'm too naive. I'm also too easily angered.

22) I find people extremely fascinating.

23) I once bred guppies. I tried mollies as well but they all died of diseases.

24) My room consists of more bookshelves than it does walking space, closet space, or makeup space.

25) My picture has been in an outdoor magazine, and a horse magazine

2. Even though, I “dish it out,” I cannot “take it” at all.

3. I dated my DH for almost 10 years before we got engaged.

4. I think DH is the most amazing person in the world—and I am the luckiest person in the world to have him think the same about me.

16. I brush my teeth at least 10 times a day.

18. I rarely order food as is. I see the menu as a starting point for negotiations.

19. A part of me dies anytime someone uses the word utilize.

21. I don’t work as hard as I could.
