Randomness...got to love it!

I am in the mood where I don't know what I want to write about, but I feel like blogging. So, I think whatever comes out, that is what it will be.

I guess you could say I love music. I love listening to it everywhere. I guess that it what a handy Ipod/ touch is for. Everything at the touch of a button, or a couple of buttons. Sometimes I find myself, without realizing it, singing out loud. Sometimes not in the best of places. Other times, I can be in my house or in my car. I bet if you pass me by on the street and you see me driving, you would crack up. I do, what I guess is called, car dancing. As well as singing my lungs out. It music can also show what kind of mood I am in. I am very eclectic when it comes to that sort of thing. A variety is always good. I also like to dance in my apartment. When I am cooking or cleaning is the funnest. I am all over the apartment there, and it makes it more fun.

Which leads me to dancing. I know I can't dance, and I am not ashamed. For, I will dance anyway. Alan has been teaching me some swing. Which, is completely awesome. He even wants to take maybe a ballroom dance class or some other kind of dance class, which would be cool too. For one, it is good exercise. And considering I like to move a lot, it helps with that as well.

I have been one to never be able to sit still. Gosh, you should have seen me at school growing up. It drove me up the wall. I would constantly be moving. I also like a job where I can move all the time. I don't know how people work and sit in chairs all day. Plus, I think my butt, even though a good size (LOL), still goes numb from a huge amount of sitting.

I also like meeting new people. I love being on the go with different people. If I tried I could pretty much book myself a week at a time with people to hang out with, or do stuff with. Actually, come to think of it, I have done that on several occasions. I love learning about people's lives and getting to know them on a whole new level. Sometimes I think I scare anyone who doesn't know me that much. I can be a little, how to say it, overwhelming at times. Plus, I think I giggle a little too much. I laugh more then I ever have.

I love laughing. My dad used to be able to make me laugh so much, I would actually stop breathing for a little while and my chest would hurt. I think laughing keeps us young. I am always up for a good joke. So, if you have one, please share. For it would make me very happy. I know that the best solution for when I have my down moments is to crack me a joke, or maybe it will take a little more then that. I think everyone has their moments.

I see to also always view life through a photo lens. I love taking pics. It, I believe has been a hobby or passion, I guess you can say for a good portion of my life. I look forward some day to taking some photo classes and getting even more into it. God created a beautiful world, I believe it is our duty to capture it, along with the moments of our lives. I like to go through pictures and have that moment flood back to me. It can be instant gratification.

I like to sit in a quite place sometimes and just absorb everything around me. I like the feel of sand or dirt between my toes or fingers. No, I don't care if I get dirty. You can always get clean again. I love when the breeze blows through my hair. I like how sometimes when I people watch it can make me smile. When I see an old couple holding hands, I think about my future with years and years of love with my someone special. I like how a song can spark a great memory of my past, and being able to live that memory over again. I love how sometimes silence can be the best sound in the world, but at the same time can sometimes be the loneliest.

I think about how lucky I am to be here in this world. I have all of my senses. I love the fact that I can touch, feel, smell, hear, speak, and see. Then I think of my mother in law, and what a strong woman she is. Her whole life, almost, she had to get through the barriers of being deaf. She is kind of an inspiration to me. She challenges me to be a better person. You want to learn her language. It makes me thrive. I love learning sign language. It makes me feel more connected to her, as well get a better understanding. It is not easy. I forget some of it all the time, but that only makes me want to work harder.

To anyone who knows me, I have this love of reading. I know I need to get back into it. I almost have a book finished. I just feel like it keeps my mind going. Plus, I love to visualize everything. So, it helps open my thoughts and mind. I developed this love from a very early age. It is actually my dream to have an awesome library as years past. We will see what happens.

I also have my moments of loosing my train of thought. I do this a lot. I am one to get distracted. And then maybe a day later I will remember and out it will come, except in a different conversation. Which, I end up throwing that person off track. I think that is why I have to get things out right away, other wise in the next min, they can vanish, and my point will be long gone.

Then there are the times when stupid stuff comes out of my mouth, and I am like, "what the heck?" I have no clue why I say these kinds of things. I tend to not think before speak, on some occasions. It has gotten me in trouble sometimes. okay, somewhat all the time.

Or, I get so goofy that people don't know how to react to me. Really, all you have to do is just join in. I like to act goofy. Relaxes me most of all. Sometimes I will try to embrace anyone who is with me. When I am out with Alan or one of my friends, and we are at the store, I sometimes start dancing down the aisles or start singing. I love to see people's reactions. Sometimes they look at me like they don't know me at all, or they will laugh and join in. Those are the best. I have gotten to a point where I don't care what people think. I like to be the person that I want to be. This has taken me a long time to realize this. But I am glad I finally did.

The best thing you can do for yourself is laugh. You use more muscles frowning then you do smiling. I like to make people laugh too. To hear someone giggle is like music to my ears. It makes me feel good if I can get someone to laugh, even if it is at one of my corny jokes or whatever it may be. So, laugh already.

...One of the first things that people notice about me, and I am not lying, are my light blue grey eyes. You can't imagine how many old people used to comment on them. Not joking. I hear it all the time. I happen to like them. They are my dad's eyes. One of the things that he did give me. What is nice is I can sometimes freak people out with them. Kind of an advantage. I can open my eyes up really really wide and just stare. Kind of giant ghostly eyes. Works all the time. I like blue. I think it is because my mom used to dress me in pink a lot. So, I think at some point of time, I rebelled. Now I have blue everything. Maybe I need to open my color pallet up a little. Change....

....that is hard for me. I am not very good with change. When I find that I like something, I usually stick with it. For example: if I find a subway sandwich that I like, I will not try anything else. Usually when I do, it usually fails me. I am sometimes a hard shell to crack. This, I know, needs work. I am not blind of it. I will let you know how it goes.

I can be an emotional person, or have my emotions get to me. Sometimes I will start crying for no reason, or sometimes something will just hit me. I can run on my friends or other people's emotions. Empathetic I believe it is. I can take them in, and it can effect me deeply. But I think it can be a positive thing. A lot of my friends will come to me if they need to talk to someone. I think it is a relief to get emotions out so they don't get bottled up inside. I sometimes have a hard time to get my emotions out myself.

I love to cook/ bake. I used to help my mom when I was younger, or even my grandma. I loved helping my mom with Thanksgiving and Christmas lunch/dinner. Rolling the silverware in napkins and aligning the special crystal glassware for the special occasion. If just made it that much more special. I love gatherings where everyone is around the table ready to dig into all the good food.

I love that satisfaction that I get after creating any kind of food, but I am always skeptical of it until I get someone else to taste it, and see what they think.

Other random things...

I am addicted to TLC, discovery channel, ABC family, comedy central, history channel, discovery medical, biography channel, and others.

I have a love of milk. I am somewhat lactose intolerant, but not to a point where I have to stop drinking it. I just can't get out of control.

I can get motion sickness. I have gotten car sickness, where it has gotten so bad, I had to have my dad pull over. I usually have to take motion sickness pills if I plan to ride on any kind of ride, even the simplest.

I am very quiet when I meet new people, but then I relax. Doesn't take me too long.
