A Hobby of Mine...

Plants! I love plants of all sorts, indoors or outdoors, I don't care where they're at, I love them all. I have quite a collection of house plants in my room, they make me feel so happy! Our backyard is probably my favorite place on Earth, I love all of the different plants that are growing out there! There's nothing better than being outdoors surrounded by plants, trees, flowers, grass, I don't care, any foliage is fantastic!

A Habit I Wish I Didn't Have...

COUNTING!!
I count absolutely everything! Sometimes it can be almost handy, it helps me remember things at times, but for the most part it is incredibly annoying. In high school they diagnosed it as OCD, I don't know how I feel about that diagnosis, but whatever causes it, it's semi exhausting!! My love of odd numbers and my disdain of even numbers really comes into play here because I spend a lot of my time trying to figure out how to make groups of things have an odd number of items in them. Truly though, I think I'd be just fine without this little habit...

A Photo Of My Family...

We're not a big photo family, we never have been. I think I remember one time growing up when we had a real, professional family picture taken. So this is as good as it gets :)

The Next Three Items on my Bucket List...

1) Go skydiving!
     I have been seriously talking about doing this one for the past year and half at least and yet I haven't quite done it yet...I should just do it already!

2) Get my college degree!
     I put this one as one of my next three because I was functioning under the "get it in, get it done" concept and then I went back to school a couple of weeks ago and I'm really enjoying myself. I've got myself to submit to the idea that I'm going to have to get a masters if I keep going with International Studies as my major. I think it might be worth it...just as well I didn't specify which degree I was going to get. Phewf.

3) Learn to play the guitar!
    I was dedicated to this one for a good solid two weeks earlier this year, I lugged that thing from LA to Phoenix and everywhere in between. I spent hours strumming it (much to my Dad's dismay I'm sure)...I had even gotten calluses on my fingers! (The true sign of a legit guitar player) Then I let myself get distracted. I'm re-dedicating myself starting tomorrow. Just as well my cousin was playing it the other day so it's already tuned.

My Dream House...

My dream house is the one that the Braverman's own on Parenthood. I LOVE IT.
I love everything about this house. I love the yard, it's wooded but not too overcrowded, plus they have the lights strung from the trees (which I adore) and an awesome outdoor table that's BIG. The interior is rustic, but modern enough to not seem old and dank. I truly can't describe it nearly well enough to do this house justice. You should probably just watch Parenthood on NBC Tuesday nights at 9 pm. (I should probably get a kickback for that awesome plug.)

I Suck At Counting...

...so I'm not going to anymore. No more counting days. So, for today's post it's all about what I did today! I slept in this morning until 6:40 am, then I got up got ready and headed out the door for school. At school I ran into an awkward acquaintance, got chased down and asked for my number by a sort of weird boy, I got told that my hair looked "tamer" today than usual and got picked out of one of my classes to read a paper in a "valley girl" voice because I'm the only blond. I love SLCC. At work I felt kind of sick, but luckily that went away because it was a typical Monday busy, busy! Then I went to the gym, looking and feeling pretty sick, which worked out fabulously because it turns out that it was a high school reunion of all the boys I've ever known ever. Yes. Good old Mondays.
