Just for fun- 20 Things About Me:1) I ADORE photography and I have no shame about sticking my camera in your face to get "that great shot."
2) I wanna take art and photography classes this summer. Correction- I WILL. I'll make it happen somehow.
3) I'm usually pretty apathetic about girly things, but every so often I'll go all out- makeup, smelly good stuff, the works.
4) I work at Lane Bryant. And I get 40% off. It rocks, except that I spend all the money I earn there. Well, maybe not ALL of it. But some of it. I try hard not to.
5) I hate retail. Well, sometimes.
6) One of my best friends, Janet, gave me a minor concussion last week when she "jumped" over my head.
7) I have one fish, and his name is Squishy, after the baby jellyfish from Finding Nemo.
8) I invent words. And they usually take (and by that I mean people start using them).
9) One of the reasons I am so passionate about photography is because I don't have a lot of pictures of my dad. And I wish I did. So I refuse to let that happen again. Another is because I inhereited it from him. He was quite the shutterbug.
10) I still (and always will) miss him everyday.
11) I can't bring myself to visit his grave more than once or twice a year. I don't know why.
12) My brother is engaged and I absolutely LOVE his fiancee. She's the best. (Hey, it counts- it's sort of about me:).)
13) I ADORE green beans.
14) I HATE cockroaches. HATE them. HATE. I usually scream and jump out of the way.
15) I really like IBC Cherry Limeade. I don't get it very often though.
16) I LOVE getting flowers. Any kind, but my favorite is Gerbera Daisies.
17) I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. No biggie.
18) I don't like having to explain to people what that is all the time. Look it up.
19) I don't know yet if I want to have kids. I bet I will once the time gets closer, but right now I'm all about traveling and a puppy. I REALLY want a puppy. (I guess that should have counted for two numbers. Oh well.)
20) My faith is what keeps me alive. I'm not perfect (big surprise), and I mess up more than I get it right, but it is and always will be the most important part of my life. I never deserve it, but for some reason God has seen fit to love me and protect me from myself. And for that I am eternally grateful.
Your turn! This was fun. I think I might do more some other time. I really wanna know about the people who read this! Post it in the comments section or link to it, whatever. Even if you can only do 10 or even 3, I'd love to read it. :) Thanks and Gig 'Em!|||113139758453239082|||20 Things!

Here we go..."yah prollie!"
1. I get happy when the weather changes.
2. I still sleep with my blankie I've had since I was born and Pinky-the pink dog my gramma gave me when I graduated kindergarten.
3. I am totally in love with Michael Payne--sappy, yes--but true.
4. The song "On Eagle's Wings" will always make me cry.
5. I am a Fightin' Texas Aggie RPTS (recreation, park and tourism science) major.

7. In softball, I played 3rd base for 2 years until a linedrive almost rearranged my face in a tournament in Dallas summer '02.

10. I think creamed corn is a glimpse of Heaven.
11. The Lion King box on my desk was a gift I got in 3rd grade from my neighbor back home, Mrs. Camp, who died about 5 years ago from alzheimers. She'd tell me stories and pick magnolias off the tree in her front yard.

19. I like the way my quilt feels on my legs.
20. I like how I am told that when I'm cranky, it's funny, b/c it shows I am human.

I. LOVE. YOU. MOMMY. You can always make me cry. And I'll be right there beside you in the uncertain future. You don't have to be afraid. Murr. :)
1. My name is Monica (I didn't want to make an account or anything). This is my first time doing anything like this so I'll try my best.
2. I absolutely love being an Aggie. There's just something about Aggieland that I can't get enough of.
3. My bestest friends are like my sisters (too many to list but I'm sure I'll mention them later). I believe God and my sister Angela have made them a part of my life.
4. I believe everything happens for a reason.
5. I was recently diagnosed with Celiac Sprue disease. It's hard to explain...basically intolerance to wheat stuff.
6. I love looking at the stars and wishing on shooting stars.
7. I've always wanted to kiss someone (special) in the rain, yes, like in the movies.
8. I don't like being tickled but at the same time love it too ;).
9. I want to be an Aggie Wrangler (the country western dancers).
10. I absolutely love to dance.
11. Lisa is my best friend from LV. She always put up with me when blabbing about my crush throughout hs. I love her to death.
12. Janet is my best friend from CS and my roomie this year. We met at Fish Camp. I love her to death too. I don't know how I would have survived my fish year w/out her. Or this year so far either.
13. Heather-you are an amazing person. Even though you "bug" my roomie (i thought i'd keep it pg) I still love you!!!
14. I love Shannon too and she is amazing as well. We have bonded so much in just a few weeks. She's so kind and caring and is always there for me.
15. All my other friends, past and present, are amazing and I have learned so much from them.
16. I want to skydive for my 25th b-day, God-willing.
17. Even though my parents and brothers and I don't get along extremely well, I still love them and I have realized how much a part of my life they have played a role in. As much as I hated them being so "controlling" I probably would have come out a much different person if they hadn't.
18. I'm always living in the past and wondering what could have been when I know I should be living for the here and now and looking forward to the future, not planning it.
19. I don't have a car but am blessed that I have friends and family that do.
20. Even though they have passed, I love my grandparents and miss them. I am glad for the time, as little as it was, I got to spend with them. So cherish your loved ones.
