enjoy!

I saw this is another blog, and decided to give it a try...it is a lot of fun.
It's called "create your own fireworks" and it goes like this:
I have this list of little factoids about me! :D if you want to make your own (which you should try it is a lot of fun), just make another statement about my statement. ie: #1 is "I love cats" now you can say "I despise cats" or "I love bananas." Just say your own thing that involves part of my statement. Simple enough. So now I begin...
1. I love cats.
2. Coldplay's X&Y is my favorite CD. I got it right before my England trip, and it's all I listened to for that entire week. I can even remember exactly what point in what song the plane took off at. That was the best week of my life, and it's what the cd makes me think of :)
3. I'm not the best at cooking, but I can bake fairly decently.
4. I could always use more sleep. But then again, can't everyone?
5. I was born in Rapid City, South Dakota. But I don't remember anything as I moved to Illinois at the age of two. I'm also the only one in my family born outside of IL or WI.
6. I only went to one high school, but I've moved a total of five times and went to three different schools before the 9th grade (Niel Armstrong (in Richton Park) K-5, Nelson Ridge (in New Lenox) 6, and Martino Jr. High (also in NL) 7-8).
7.I haven't eaten any organic food on purpose. But I'm sure I've come accross it at some point in time.
8. I'm slightly homesick now...but I'll be home again soon.
9. I'm not allergic to any type of food, but I have an overly sensitive stomach, so there's a lot that I can't eat or have to be careful with for fear of upsetting it.
10. I was a really active kid, always outside and running around. Not anymore, though, I haven't been for a while, but I was once.
11. My parents don't drink, and I have absolutely no intention of doing so besides a pretty drink (ONLY 1) on my 21st birthday.
12. I love shopping. It is like therapy. When I have money, of course...
13. I'll be in NYC in May! and I can't wait!!
14. Anyone who is rude and/or mean is not worth my time.
15. I am just a little less freaked out about my grades than Hermione. Granted, I don't respond to this stress by studying fervently, but I do freak out over grades easily.
16. Spelling is simple. I do make screw ups, but they are not common.
17. My favorite flowers are daisies and Hibiscus flowers.
18. I try not to swear. If I'm frustrated enough, I'll slip, but for the most part, I just don't.
19. Words are ludicrously enjoyable. Especially long, confusing ones. :)
20. I wish I was bigger. Just a little, and not to the point where my clothes have issues fitting. Just enough so I don't look so fragile and my bones (particularly my collarbone, hips and spine) don't make appearances no matter how hard I try to hide them.
21. I can be artistic and creative if I really want to or am in the right mood.
22. I try not to worry about money.
23. I love swimming. Not laps, just floating around and goofing off. I'm like a fish.
24. I've done two big injuries to my mouth: when I was eight and riding a bike, I turned oddly and did a flip over the handlebars and landed on my two front teeth, chipping one and fracturing both. Then, when I was nine, I was on top of the monkey bars coming down in between them, biting my lip, when the back of my head hit a bar causing it to fly forward and making my teeth hit the bar in front of me. I bit almost all the way through my top lip (I still have the scars), chipped the one tooth again and fractured the other.
25. I have a huge fear of losing my parents, especially my mom. This is mostly because my mom went through cancer when I was 7, so for a period of time I very likely could have lost her.
There's 25 more...so I'll just post this for now :) the rest will be up shortly.
