100 Things about Shelye

I guess I've been tagged... Here are 100 random things about me...

1. I hate the term "vertically challanged." Just say I'm short, it sounds less offensive to me! Just like I'd rather be called "fat" than "obese" :)

24. 24 is my favorite number. Its also my birthday.
25. I have a theory that all men look good in Kilts. You can be fat, ugly, skinny, weird, goofy, or whatever. It doesnt matter what you look like, if you are in a kilt, you become insta-sexy.

This is a non profit organization where a bunch of us freaks dress up and recreate medieval history.

63. I have the absolute best mom on the planet. She really is my hero. she is so giving and generous. She genuinely wants to help others without worrying about herself. If I ever grow up (which is doubtful at this point) I wanna be just like her. She loves everyone and isn't judgemental. She really is my hero!!
64. My dad may seem quiet and shy, but he's a freaking riot!! My dad is hilarious when you never expect it. Its almost weird that he's funny. Kinda creeps me out. LOL

67. I'm no longer in love with Phil. This is a huge relief to me to finally get to start moving on. Now I just wish my divorce was final.
68. I love thrill rides. I love amusment parks and I very badly want to try the catapult and sky coaster at lagoon. I'm scared I'll admit it. but I love being thrilled.
69. I love water and water sports. I never could get "up" while water skiing, but I love boating and swimming, and tubing, and ANYTHING to do with water. I think i was a fish in a past life.

72. I really enjoy pottery. I miss it.
73. I get migraines. :( I have one today in fact. I've had migraines since I was 11 years old. When I was in 5th grade, they even thought I had a brain tumor and I had to undergo all sorts of testing. Which isn't a big deal, but is pretty tramatic when you're that young.
74. My favorite video game is Smash Brothers.
75. My favorite Smash Brothers character to be is Kirby.
76. My 2nd favorite video game is tetris. I RULE at tetris.
77. One day when I have my own home, I want to devote an entire room just for meditation. I want it to look like one of those fancy holistic spas. With dim lighting and earthy music or native american flute music or something, with candles and water fountains and insense and stuff. I want a room that I can escape to and just think. Thats a dream i've had for years. It'd be even better if I had my own personal maseuse in there to massage me whenever i needed it. I sure hope I'm rich one day!
77. I LOVE vegas. I know its "sin city" but I effin love it! Its my second favorite place in the world.
78. My first favorite place is Oceanside, CA. I know its random, but I think i was meant to live by the beach. I've only been there a few times, but everytime i've been its been such an amazing experience. I love it so very much. I love swimming and laying out. I really want to learn to surf. See? I totally was a fish in a pst life!
79. I love to people watch. I could spent hours sitting at the mall or Lagoon or even walmart just watching people. People are crazy and it fascinates me!
80. My favorite sound is a cat purring.
81. I have 3 favorite smells. I love the way it smells after it rains. I LOVE the smell of wet cement. As child I used to lick the cement and sniff it. Wierd huh? I also love the smell of saw dust. I guess part of that may be because my dad is a carpenter. and my newest favorite smell (a recently aquired one) is the smell of Jen. She wears this amazing abercrombie perfume that is to die for!
82. One of my biggest pet peeves is when people put the toilet paper on the roll backwars. The paper should fall toward you, not away from you. I usually change it if I see it wrong. LOL am i twisted or what? I dont like it sticking to the wall before I use it. I also HATE IT when people do not replace the roll when they use the last of it.
83. Ever since I was a little girl I wished I was an Indian. (As in India-not native american.) I love Indian culture! I love their clothes, and dancing, and music, and their gorgeous light brown skin.
84. Up until a month ago, my hair length was past my butt. I cut about 6 inches off, so now its just down to just above my butt. And man! Everyone seems to think I should cut my hair! Maybe I should put a poll on here and see what people think. Should I cut off all my hair? My mom wanted me to add the fact that I wear my hair in a bun everyday so that (and i'm quoting my mother) "don't get my hair caught in my crack" LOL
*Update: I added the poll to the upper right hand side of my page. Please vote!
85. I love peanut butter. I love any candy with peanut butter in it. Or even peanuts. I love peanuts! Or other nuts. Cashews, sunflower seeds, etc.
86. My favorite perfume is "white musk" at the Body Shop. I have the body wash, the lotion, the body powder, body glitter, and the perfume. I'm addicted to it!
87. I LOVE PIRATES!!! I love any movie or poster or anything to do with pirates. And I had this addiction even before the Pirates of the Carribean craze. Of course that enhanced it. I love Jack Sparrow!! <3
