The List: Part 2

A couple of weeks ago I wrote a blog titled, The List: Part 1. If you haven't checked it out, it is a few post down. Instead of talking about addiction and recovery, I decided to answer 30 questions that I came across on The Hopes and Dreams blog. It is a little get to know me exercise. I decided to break it up into 3 parts. I will now answer the next set of questions. Here we go. Enjoy!

11.) Describe 10 pet peeves you have.

Slurping food, my dad's alarm clock (it is a rooster), slow drivers, when I say no mayo I mean no mayo, the Atlanta airport, people that don't flush the toilet, messing up a nail after getting them done, judgmental people, telemarketers, leaving no hot water when I am going to take a shower....

12.) Describe a typical day in my current life.

This is quite hysterical to me. I am basically a dog sitter all day long. I open and close the door for the dog to go in and out. I am in a transitional period in my life. After Michael had passed away, I moved back home with my parents. I am still unemployed at the moment, but I am going to graduate school in the fall. I have some health aliments that I am in the process of trying to get fixed as well.

13.) Describe 5 weaknesses you have.

Impatient, Out of shape, Indecisive, Not very dependable these days due to health problems, Soft spoken-doesn't speak out when needed.

14.) Describe 5 strengths you have.

Creative writing,  Friendly personality, Optimistic, Nonjudgmental, and Funny.

15.) If you were an animal, what would you be and why?

Definitely a cat. All they do is eat, sleep, and poop. Sounds like a good day to me.

16.) What are your 5 greatest accomplishments?

College graduation, starting Campaign Loud, my writing career, being the best aunt to my niece and nephew, and taking care of Michael like I did.

17.) What is the thing you most wish you were great at?

No doubt, singing!!!! I have ALWAYS wanted to be able to sing. I can't carry a tune! Every time I go to karaoke with friends, I wish I could get up and sing, but they would laugh me off the stage.

18.) What has been the most difficult thing you have had to forgive?

This is a tough question, because I really haven't had to forgive much. When Michael was sick he told me he never meant to hurt me and wanted me to forgive him for everything he put me through. I told him he never did hurt me and I know he never meant to do everything he did. I guess that would be it.

19.) If you could live anywhere, where would it be and why?

Malibu, CA. I LOVE the ocean and I love CA. Malibu to me is just refreshing and relaxing. I hope to someday work at a rehab facility in Malibu after graduate schoool.

20.)  Describe 3 significant memories from your childhood.

My grandmother and I use to play cards on a Sat. night while watching The Golden Girls and Empty Nest. Those were the best times.
Dancing. I took dance and was on a competition team. Every memory I have from dance is a pleasant one.
My love for Kenny Rogers. I was just a little thing when I fell in love with his music. My grandmother would put his record on and we would sing and dance. I went to his concert when I was 4 or 5 and later on in life I went again.




The List: Part 3 will come soon. Until then, have a great week.
