For kicks and giggles: 25 random things about me
I saw someone else post theirs here and I figured, what the heck. So if you're bored, here's something to read I suppose.
1. Church ministry is my passion. It took me years to figure this out and a lot of frustration along the way, but at least I finally made it... I'm also passionate about my church. Salem Alliance is like my home away from home.
2. I have no idea why I got a Poli Sci degree, and even less idea what I am going to do with it. Although at least now I can carry on an intelligent political conversation with someone, even though they usually just want to argue with me.
3. I love photography. Iit only took me 22 years to figure that out. Every once in a while my creative side breaks free; those moments are seriously amazing.
4. I love to dance, but I'm embarrassed to dance alone.
5. I have a sickness for reading and checking out library books. Slightly akin to having eyes bigger than your stomach. Two jobs + 4 books / 3 weeks = late night reading sessions to avoid overdue charges.
6. People at my job think I look like I'm in Jr High.... seriously. The Fed Ex guy didn't want to let me sign his electronic signature thing today. He didn't believe I was over 21...
7. I could probably live on tuna, pizza, and broccoli for the rest of my life. Although not necessarily together.
8. I have my own font, in my own handwriting. "Megeletto" If you want it you can have it too, just ask me for it.
9. I can't resist shows like The Bachelor & The Hills, even though I'm sure they're mostly scripted.
10. I wish that my wit was faster.
11. I won a calculator on a local TV math show when I was in high school, but they never sent it to me :(
12. I was a cheerleader in high school & in college (for a bit).
13. Managing money scares me. Just the whole concept of it makes me want to hide under a rock.
14. My biggest pet peeve is when people "forget" to use their turn signal before changing lanes or turning. Seriously irritating.
15. I don't drink coffee OR tea, and I don't care for alcohol.
16. I've never had a bloody nose or a broken bone.
17. I love doing things like going shopping or to a movie completely by myself. It's not that weird, I promise.
18. I got carded for ordering an alcoholic drink when I was over 21.... in Mexico (yep, they'll let 7 a year old buy liquor, but they're cautious with me)
19. I like grammar. A lot. I secretly loved to proof other peoples papers when I was in college (and some of my co-workers still let me).
20. I absolutely LOVE Salem/Keizer despite the obvious lack of things to do here. If I had my choice I would live here forever.
21. I've visited/been in over 30 states and 5 countries. Yet I don't like to travel..... go figure.
22. With a friends help, I made up a fake boyfriend in Jr High to make a boy jealous. Guess my inability to lie with a straight face runs pretty deep because he never bought it.
23. I'm like a faucet when it comes to tears. Movies, TV shows, sappy interviews, and even commercials can make me cry.
24. When my brother was really young and he didn't know what a word meant he used to ask me. If I didn't know, I made something up.
25. U of O was the first "public" school that I ever attended. From preschool through freshman year of college I attended private Christian schools.
