My 25 Things That You Don't Know About Me.
It's a facebook phenomenon and EVERYONE is doing it. But, I don't usually like to write pointless annoying notes, so I thought I'd do it here inside.
1. I think Elliott Smith is the most amazing, blessed, song-writer in the entire world. I'm blessed that he's from my home state.
2. As much as I love the city, I'm a country girl at heart. Not a day goes by that I don't imagine running through wheat fields in the middle of August, with warm earth squishing between my toes.
3. We (my mother and I) knew that I would become a psychologist when I was found reading her DSM in our library/study when I was 3.
4. Animals are my kin, my soulmates, and the loves of my life.
5. I have had the biggest fear of commitment ever since my first boyfriend devestated my life after 5 years. This was solidified when the love of my life dropped me a few years later. Case and point, I will attempt to breakup with someone every 3 months like clockwork to avoid getting too close.
6. I am adopted and an only child of a single parent.
7. Baking is my passion. My aunt and I used to bake every Saturday morning after watching One Saturday Morning on ABC (remember that!!??). Pies, cookies, cakes, you name it. There are videos of me when I was 2, standing on a chair helping roll out pie dough.
8. I have a fear of being just like everyone else...This in turn, makes me just like everyone else.
9. I'd like to think of myself as a writer. Maybe not a good one, not anything spectacular, but at least remotely talented. This leads directly into #10...
10. I narrate my life. It's cheesy, a little insane, but I do it. Example: "As she walked down the cereal aisle, thoughts of him swarmed her mind. She was so engrossed that she passed right by the Special K."
11. I'm a closet anorexic. I say "closet" because I'm actually too intelligent to execute my disorder, so I secretly loathe myself inside even though I know I am NOT overweight.
12. I hate that I'm a girl. Everyday, I wake up, look at myself and wish I was a boy. I don't want a sex change though.
13. I used to play football. I played on a boy's team in middle school and a girls team in high school.
14. I am NOT Mexican. If you tell me I'm Mexican, call me a Mexican, I will gut you. There is a difference between Mexican, Hispanic, Latina, Latino, and Spanish. If you don't know, look it the fuck up.
15. When I was 18, I was raped by my best friend. Ex-best friend.
16. I was born with a little bit of fetal alcohol syndrome. This makes math extremely difficult for me.
17. I've been dancing for 8 years. Tap, jazz, hip-hop, ballet, pointe...you name it, I've done it. I don't dance anymore because I don't have time. AND I was in an accident that fucked up my balance. Sad.
18. My right eye is half brown and half green. This is due to cocaine that I ingested in utero.
19. I've been told by every guy I've ever been with that I give the best blow jobs in the world. I'm not 100% why this is, I thought that I do what every girl does. From what I hear, this is not the case. Slip this info to your girlfriend and I can give them a tutorial.
20. When I was born, my Mom called me her 'Little Bean Burrito' for a lifetime. Looking back on it, that is terribly racist.
21. I am insanely independent. Don't try to control me because I'll rebel just because I can. Example: Today, my boyfriendn told me that I shouldn't run when I went to the gym because of a swollen ankle. I told him to fuck off and said my ankle was my own perogative. Oops.
22. I used to barrel race in my younger days. My pet was my horse, Danni, and my senior year of high school I help deliver her baby, Dakota.
23. 2 of my boyfriends have attempted suicide. This is not because of me (I'm told), but the fact is that I've had to deal with two suicide attempts. Don't talk to me about suicide because I will have next to no sympathy. My heart is calloused. This is ironic. When I walk over overpasses and always wonder what it would be like to jump or drive off.
24. I got my first, and current, car when I was 16. A red 1991 Honda Prelude. Her name is Miss Scarlett, and she is perfection in every sense of the word.
25. I created a gang. It's a real, legit gang. I'm also a graffiti artist. Next time you're in Seattle look around for DBK or E.Money.
**bonus** I've never used an illegal substance in my life. I'm proud of that.
