25 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Me

Being jobless I get really bored (as evident by my last post!) so sometimes I do random things like this to keep me from going nuts.
Here are 25 random things about me. I wonder if anyone actually knew all 25 before they had read this note. Hmm....

1.I have big brown eyes which I’ve learned to use to my advantage ;) and I have naturally curly hair that fits my personality to a T.

2.I hate being ignored. When I was little I would go out of my way just to make sure people, especially my dad, would pay attention to me.

3.That leads me to my next point. I am such a daddy’s girl. I love him so much! He is my number one fan. He only ever missed 1 of my dance performances when I lived at home and he’s even flown up to Utah to see me compete in Dancesport.

4.My mom and I are SO much alike on the inside yet look completely different on the outside. Pretty much if you know and like one of us, you are bound to like the other one. And, we both think we’re pretty much amazing ;)

5.I just love my family!! They are my best friends and I love spending time with them. Even though it can get crazy at my house, it is still one of my favorite places to be.

6.I can’t sit still. That’s probably why I love dancing so much! I took my very first ballet class when I was five and I haven’t stopped dancing since: ballet, jazz, hip-hop, lyrical, tap, clogging, folk, and now ballroom.

7.I am lucky enough to have my best friend double as my amazing dance partner.

8.Without even realizing it, I will start playing songs on whatever my fingers are touching as if I’m playing the piano.

9.No worries, I actually do play the piano and I love it. I love playing fast. I once had a group piano class (pointless class!) and my teacher told me I would never be able to play very fast the way I held my fingers when I played. I was the only student in the entire class who could play faster than he could—Ha! in your face slowpoke piano teacher. ;)

10.I love to teach. It doesn’t matter what it is, piano, dance, the Gospel, everything.

11.I am a very happy, positive person. You can’t get me down for too long. Besides that, smiling is so much better than sulking! I just love life! I love sunny days, walking in a light rain, dancing in the snow, rainbows, music, smiles, happy movies, musicals, pink!, happy things!

12.I have a lot of faith. Everything is in the Lord’s hands and I just know things will turn out for the best.

13.A child’s giggle is my favorite sound ever

14.I regret never learning how to play sports

15.I love going to concerts and to the theater. If I could afford it, I’d go to at least one performance every week.

16.I sing really loud in the shower and I wish I had the confidence to sing like that in public

17.I go on random cleaning sprees where I clean everything around me and if you make a mess after one of them you better watch out!

18.I love learning! I want to learn as much as I can.

19.My friends span a range from 4’9” to 6’4” so it kinda looks funny when we’re all together.

20.Speaking of, my friends are amazing and I am so grateful that they are always there for me

21.Ice cream, Ice cream, Ice cream!

22.If I had the choice between living in a huge house and owning cool things or traveling the world, I would travel. I want to go everywhere, see everything. My dream is to go to Paris and try to speak French with the people there (the key word is “try”).

23.I was homeschooled until college and people are surprised at how “normal” I am. (If they only knew!) I started college when I was 16 and just graduated from BYU in Business Management.

24.In one month I got hired on at my first real job and laid off from it because it had to close down

25.I am a very goal oriented person. I love checklists and sometimes I add to the list just so I can cross more things off. I love making goals and pushing myself to reach them. I hate it when someone tells me I can’t do something because I know if I put my mind to it, I can do anything.
