The Twenty Five Random Facts
[Feb. 7, 2009]

1. I am a funny girl, I'm not going to lie. The better you get to know me, the more I let it out. My sense of humor can be quirky at times, I will start laughing at even the most random thing, and sometimes it just triggers a memory and makes me laugh harder.

2. I am a morning person, I think it must be in my blood- because I had tried so many times to be a night owl- but I cannot do it. I love the morning's anyway, since everybody decides that they hate mornings, it's very quiet and peaceful. I love the sunrise, and that light that seems to make everything crisper, it's just before sunrise. I love it.

3. I like classical music. I love listening to Keane and John Mayer as much as the next person, but sometimes you just need something soothing. Sometimes when I listen to it, one song can speak so much more than all the lyrics on a Switchfoot CD.

4. I will talk to myself. Not really a huge revelation, but I do, it bugged my boss the most.

5. I have all 8 season's of Andy Griffith on DVD and I watch them regularly. I would marry Andy Griffith.

6. I like baking from sratch. Anything else just feels wrong.

7. I will most likely answer to: Bethany, Stephanie, Brittany and Hey You, Tall Girl! Oh and Beth- but not all the time, explained below-

8. I prefer Bethany, not Beth. Only Family and Good friends call me Beth regularly. Otherwise I feel like they/you are talking about Beth Seastrand/Dimick or even someone else. Plus also Bethany was the name of the town, not Beth.

9. I hate having my hair in my face. I think this had something to do with a childhood of bangs in my eyes, and middle and High school spent in ponytails. I don't know how other people live with it. If you see me with hair in my face/eyes, it usually means I've given up, typically by the end of the day I will bobby pin it out of my face.

10. I will read anything by Robert Farrell Smith. (He Wrote: Baptists at Our Barbecue, Miracle of Forgetness, and Bitten)

11. I am a horrible Dancer. I dance alone, a lot- mainly to Keane because you just can't listen to "Bend and Break" without trying to actually bend and break.

12. I will read anything by Brandon Mull. (He wrote: The Fablehaven Series, The Candy Shop War)

13. I had vampire teeth before my braces.

14. I LOVE Nancy Drew games. I'm not a good dectective, but I still love the games.

15. Because I watch so many movies, I know about a lot of actors- Their real name and a list of movies they've been in. I don't actually know anything about them. Some people think that I am that girl who spends her time with the gossip magazines, just becuase I know their names and some movies they were in. I really don't care about their lives that much. Just the other day I discovered that J. Lo had babies- and was married. Who knew?

16. Right now my hands still smell like a mixture of celery, onions and garlic. (We were learning knife skills in my culinary class yesterday)

17. I'm sure you really had a deep burning desire to hear about 16.

18. I had Sondre Lechre's "To Be Surprised" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yywmhpTvJWQ ) stuck in my head all day yesterday.

19. I now have it stuck in my head again.

20.I saw "He's just not that into you" yesterday. It was cute. I hated the bits with Mr. Skank and his mistress who also was a skank. but loved the Beth/Neil and Gigi/Alex bits. Everything else I probably could've lived without- but then the movie would'nt have made much sense.

21. My dream home would include a window with a bench, a real fireplace, a pantry with room for a freezer and a fridge, and a Loft. (A Secret Passageway to Disney Land, and a secret room- but shh. Don't tell anybody.)

22. I randomly Capitalize words that are not Nouns, but are fairly Prominent in the sentence. It's a curse.

23. When I am listening to music from my mp3 player (Actually any music that I know) I will mouth the words. People who don't understand that I am listening to music think I'm crazy, I'm sure. I also can't help but move to the beat of particularly good songs. Yeah I look quite sane. :p

24. I think "chatspeak"/"textspeak" will be the downfall of the English Language, and I refuse to take part in it.

25. The pressure is on! 2% milk is like a dessert for me. For the past 7 years, I've only had Soymilk immediately available to me- so having regular good ole milk from a cow, is a treat.
