you know that 25 things thing...

1. My favorite color is Pink. bright hot pink, not that disgusting light pink. I've always thought I'd be cool to have a pink car, I'd never do it, but secretly I want one. Pink, bug? ;) 

2. I love to read. I get lost in stories and they are so a part of my real life as I read them. 

3. I have the best friends in the world. I don't know what I would do with out them, or how I ever didn't know them. 

4. There is a giant stuffed Giraffe, named Bongo, sitting beside me right now. 

5. I don't eat red meat, the stuff makes me want to throw up in my mouth. 

6. For a short phase in my life I was tom-boyish. I refused to wear dresses, pink, or anything frilly. My how times have changed. 

7. My dream is to one day live in England. 

8. The travel bug inside of me is biting and needs to be fed. I must get out of the country soon. 

9. I used to have a duck named 'Cuh-cuh'. 'Cuh-cuh had a baby duck named 'Baby Cuh-cuh'. They are still to this day my favorite stuffed animal. Followed closely behind by my giant stuffed pink pig that i used to use as a pillow. 

10. I have a small obsession with Chai Lattes. I just can't help myself. 

11. To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my favorite books. It was also the first "school assigned" book I ever read. Thanks Mrs. Click, I still have my 'foldable'. 

12. All I want to do with my life is help people and love on people. Therefore the question "what do you want to be when you grow up" is really hard for me. 

13. I've always wanted to join the Peace Corps, ever since Jessie talked about it on Saved by the Bell. 

14. I can't remember what life was like before I had a sparkle on my nose. I love it. 

15. Children aged 2.5 to 4 are my favorite age to work with. 

16. I love people, and meeting people. But I have a hard time actually making real friends. 

17. I met 17 of the most amazing people in my life when I boarded a plane for London, England. I never knew how much those 4.5 months would change my life and how much they would mean to me. 

18. It is my dream to retire from life one day and live in Manarola (Cinque Terre), Italy. 

19. Awkward men seam to love me and gravitate to me. I can't help this and I have no idea how to make it stop. 

20. I dearly love to laugh. 

21. I asked Santa to bring me a boy for Christmas, he didn't come through... maybe he didn't get my letter in time. 

22. I love mindless girly movies/ chick flicks.

23. It is my dream to adopt a child from every nation and have a United Nations of Children. Ok maybe not every nation but lots of them and still call them my "united nations of children." This is how I will accomplish world peace. 

24. I really really really wish World Peace were possible. 

25. Some times I like to imagine what my life would look life if I'd made a different decision or things had turned out differently. Like if I hadn't chosen Samford. Or if I hadn't lived in the house I did summer 2005. Or if I hadn't had a best friend growing up that looked like my twin and was also obsessed with O-town. If I hadn't out grown the tom-boy phase. I like my life as it is, its just fun to think about and wonder. 

26. I'm OCD (or CDO, if we're going alphabetical) I need for things to be in even numbers.
