My philosophy that I live by is, be true. to you. I never have wanted to hide who I am.
I have never wanted to put on a facade. I am me. I wanted people to get to know the real me.
So here are some quirks about me that not many people know.
** I literally am addicted to chocolate. I told Matt verbatim ” I could go without chocolate for 2 weeks! I am not that obsessed’
I tried giving it up, but on day 2 I started tearing up and bundled up in the fetal position on our couch. I had to phone Radelle for strength to get past such a craving.
But even she couldnt help.
Oh hell, I have been eating those words ever since they slipped off my tounge.
** I am scared to walk down streets at night by myself. If you are at a wedding I am shooting, go take a peek out of the window,
and you will see me, carrying all my camera gear, sprinting across the parking lot to the vehicle. Other times, I will pretend to talk on my cell phone.
I never think to actually call anyone. I just talk to myself. Scared and alone.
** I don’t like Bananas. I probably haven eaten one since 1999.
** I love board games. Love them. I want to have the biggest, baddest board game collection around.
** I speed all the time. I really do. Unless I know it is a spot where the po-po usually are. But most times, I rip it.
(if Christine Hayes/Sawatsky is reading this.. close your eyes!) And if Matt is driving, I am a HUGE backseat driver. I think he tunes me out.
** If I find a song that I really really like, I will listen to it on repeat for hours and not get tired of it.
This can last up to months and years.. Dead serious. Beautiful Life by Charlotte Martin one of my all time faves.
** I really try not to read or watch the news. The main reason is because it is so depressing.
I know that this makes me ignorant of my surroundings and rights, but hey, ignorance is bliss.
Plus, I dont think I’d ever leave the house at night if I did know what is out there.
** When doing laundry, I usually put in twice the amount of soap that is needed. I want them realllly clean!
** Two words. Audrey Hepburn! I have loved her all my life. It isn’t rare for me to sing the songs from
My Fair Lady in an old British accent. (Matt is sooooo lucky that he is married to me!)
“Someone’s ‘ead restin’ on my knee, Warm an’ tender as ‘e can be. ‘ho takes good care of me, Aow, wouldn’t it be loverly?”
** I have naturally curly hair. Oh, and when I go to bed with my hair damp, I wake up looking like a little monster. It is wild!
** In a suspenseful/scary part in a movie or show, I plug my ears. Matt doesn’t understand why. And frankly, I don’t either. I just do it.
** I think I am pretty funny, and after I tell a witty joke, or a funny comment,
I ALWAYS ask Matt if I am funny. His answer, Yes. So I choose to believe him.
** I am sooo unbelievably lucky to be married to the man of my dreams, to be surrounded by my friends and family.
I don’t really know why my friends have stuck with me all these years, but I am a lucky girl. And as for family, they have to stick
with me, and I am so grateful for it!
