28 Things...

I decided about a month ago that on my 28th birthday that I would post 28 random things about myself. I apologize in advance for any typos as I'm doing this from my phone since my desktop is at the doctor's.

1) If I could learn three things it would be how to dance, how to play piano and how to box on a punching bag properly.

2) I would give a whole lot to be able to sing even remotely well. This, however, I don't feel is something that can just be learned and is simply a gift that I don't have.

3) I wish I'd pursued acting. It was something a few of my teachers over the years thought I'd be great at, but I never did much with it for some reason.

4) I'm a chronic joint cracker, but I try not to do it around other people because I know some people are disgusted by it.

5) I am a people pleaser. John thinks this is more to my detriment than anything else. I bottle a lot trying to keep others happy.

6) I'd also be interested in learning how to make my own jewelry.

7) I was on a med at the age of 14 for a month that gave me lasting problems of my pupils dilating too much. It causes a fair few headaches.

8) I love Booster Juice with a passion.

9) I miss my father-in-law far more than I let on.

10) The smells of canned or juiced pineapple instantly makes me nauseous. I try to simplify things and just say I'm allergic, but I'm highly sensitive to it and it's not pleasant.

11) Any day that combines Dr Pepper and bacon is a winning day in my book.

12) I'm a geek at heart and love being given opportunities to geek out.

13) I love having impromptu dance parties with my boys.

14) My birthday always falls on the same day of the week that year as my mum and my brother. This year we had Friday birthdays.

15) I'd love to have a stylist to work with that could help me find a fashion style that suits my personality and my body type.

16) I'm a huge fan of The Olive Garden and The Old Spaghetti Factory.

17) Caleb and I sang a song together a couple of weeks ago and it was an incredibly special experience that he's chosen to make a daily ritual.

18) I am a planner. I love planning out everything, even vacations I'd never be able to actually take. I just find the process enjoyable.

19) I did the whole Personal Progress program in 8 months (give or take a few days).

20) 1/6 of the music on my phone is by Glee Cast. It's seldom that I like the original better.

21) I sleep better if there's music playing quietly the whole night.

22) I love hugs!

23) I love the Christmas season and have a hard time waiting to decorate, but I refuse to decorate before November12th.

24) I love playing outside in the rain. I find it very refreshing.

25) I'm scared of the dark and sleep with the light on when John's not with me.

26) If I were to go to school I have absolutely no idea what kind of course I would want to take.

27) I still occasionally miss my eyebrow piercing, even though I'd never have it redone.

28) I seriously have some of the greatest people in my life and I'm beyond grateful for them.

Happy 28th birthday to me!
