Twenty things people should know about me!

So I was searching for a little inspiration via Google. Well I was searching ten things people should know about horses, but then I saw a heading for twenty things people should know about you. that’s when the idea happened. So here you go, twenty things you guys should know about me.

1. I am extremely stubborn. let’s just say when I decide I want something my way, I fight like hell to get it. Some call it spoiled, I call it getting the job done.

2. I love horses, but that’s not all. I also love trucks, gardening, movies, John Wayne movie specials, being with friends and as odd as this may sound, I love where I work.

3. I actually like some polka music. That’s right people I said it. I like some polka music. I guess I get it from my Grandpa, but when Big Joe Polka show is on, I cannot help but tune in.

4. I love Oyster stew! Mom doesn’t make it very often because she along with millions of other people in the universe hate it. But really, who couldn’t love the taste?!?!?

5. When I am mad, I am furious, but when I am not I am pretty funny! people don’t really see me mad that much, but according to my mom, when I am really mad about something I am A. really snippy and always have the last word. B. I can never seem to let it all go. However on most of my good days according to friends and family I get them laughing to tears.

6. I am VERY opinionated. Much like my Grandpa, I say what I need to say when I need to say it. Who can help a girl really. If I don’t like something, guaranteed I will say something.

7. I hate being referred to as a “Hillbilly” or a “Redneck.” Alright folks, may I ask you, what really qualifies a person as a “Hillbilly” or a “Redneck”? I have been called both and it really ticks me off. Is it having a farm? Many in this world do. Drinking beer? The last time I checked many people buy beer and they are not in anyway country. Having a trailer home? That’s what I would refer to as being down on your luck and not a lifestyle of choice. Can’t we just call people “Cowboy”, “Cowgirl” or even just “Country” instead of placing us into this derogatory category?

8. I love to eat chicken, but I am deathly afraid of birds! So you know how everyone has those #1 fears? Well birds are mine. They scare the living hell out of me.

9. I won’t just settle for any guy. I am a firm believer in chasing your dreams and in that I believe that applies to finding the right person in your life. I mean common, you will be spending the rest of your life with this person. You don’t want some free loader that sits on your couch and eats chips all day do you? Now I am not saying I believe in “the one” or having a soul mate or anything, but I do believe that there is someone out there that you are meant to be with. They are well worth waiting for. I know what I want and I have high expectations, but I will not settle for anything less.

10. I am a firm believer in dirt cleanses the body. No I am not talking a mud bath at the spa or anything. I mean just getting down in the mud making mud pies, gardening or even having a mud fight is good for the body. I can’t really explain it, but you come out covered and feeling good in the end.

11. I LOVE kids, just not all kids. I for the most part love all kinds of kids, but there is one exception, bratty/spoiled kids. They are so rude, manipulative and wreck things. I for one cannot stand it and when the moment is right I call them out. Who really wants to see that?

12. I am a die hard Republican, in a family full of Democrats. Well all I can say is I stand my beliefs and give my thoughts when I wish. However I am always ready to get a mouthful in return.

13. I live on the straight and narrow, but do like to live a little. I am a firm believer in doing the right thing, but I am also if it feels good do it. Sometimes life gets just to boring.

14. I am terrified to drive. I know, but its true. With how fast cars move, my mother yelling and me being in control, it scares the hell out of me. So much that I honestly cringe just thinking about it.

15. I used to be REALLY shy. Couldn’t tell now, but I used to be so shy that it used to take me three months to raise my hand for the first time in class. I guess that’s what I get for being sheltered most of my life. THANKS MOM!

16. I am not afraid of the dark, but I cannot sleep without my dog there. All I have to say is that if there is ever an intruder in my room I am covered. Got my pillow, my blankie and my dog. Nope he won’t get me!

17. I wear my purity ring with pride! I honestly I think that the body is precious and should be well respected and taken care of both physical and spiritual. However it is a personal choice.

18. I hate cartoons, but my weakness is the Wonder Pets. Who couldn’t love those little guys Linny, Tuck and Ming Ming. I watch it every other Thursday with my cousin, she’s 3. We plan our whole night around it. If someone came up to me and told me to sing the theme song, I would sing it with joy. “Wonder Pets, Wonder Pets weir on our way, to help a baby animal and save….” On every night at 7:30pm on Noggin.

19. English is my first and only language. LITTERALY! For some odd reason, I did not inherit the famous gene of language.

20. I am in no way girlie, but I got my nails done and loved it! **GASP** That’s right folks, I got fake nails and liked it. However with all I do, they won’t stay on for long! I have been a nail biter since I was three and have never quit!
