All Smiles: 25 Years Young

be warned: this post will be REALLY long.

As you probably know my birthday was this week!! I LOVE my birthday! I mean, LOVE. This year was good. I got to spend time with my friends and family and I did exactly what I wanted all day. I found myself especially grateful and appreciative that people were taking time out of their busy lives to call, text, or come visit me. I especially love my family for always striving to make it so special for me. I have had the best support system these past two years in Utah and I want you all to know how much I appreciate it.

Since I love when people do those random blog posts that say "25 things you didn't know about me" or "the ABC's of my life" I decided to do one too, in honor of my birthday, so that I can remember myself how I am right now.

1. I am a obsessive package tracker. When I order things online, I constantly check the "status" of the package. I like to know every city the package is in!
2. Currently I am obsessed with the BLT sandwiches from Great Harvest. I can't get enough.
3. My favorite treat is still Emily's mint brownies. Especially when she makes the icing different colors!
4. Puff pancake is my favorite breakfast dish. With strawberries, bananas, powdered sugar, and lemon wedge.
5. I love trashy reality tv. eg. basketball wives miami, mob wives, RHOA
6. I went to therapy from February to June. When I checked in with her in October, she told me I didn't need to come anymore. I would recommend therapy to anyone.
7. This was the year I learned that friendships don't last forever. Honestly, I just didn't think it was true before.
8. I really do love accounting. I wish I would have had more courage to start accounting before I graduated in PoliSci because I knew I didn't want to be a lawyer 2 years before I graduated!
9. Some people spend money on clothes. I spend money on cases...like cases for iphones, kindles, or my toothbrush. I love cases...nice ones.
10. I haven't bought any new clothes since October. I hate my wardrobe but refuse to buy something until I lose weight.
11. I still hate when people lie and secrets. I always will.
12. The real reason I want to live in CA is because one day I was watching the RHCP video that was filmed in Venice Beach and I saw the girl that was dancing on top of the fence and I thought to myself I could be doing that right now. I could be having so much fun. Now every time I think of CA, I can only picture that video. Is that lame??? I've never shared that. I have a ton of legitimate reasons why I could move there but that is THE reason that made me even consider it.
13. I like myself. I don't feel like a lot of people can say that. But I genuinely like myself. I like who I am. I like how far I've come.
14. I'm worried about how long it will take me to get a job but I am confident I'll find one eventually.
15. You know how some people only get a "little" mad? Something will happen and they won't be furious, they'll just be ticked?? That doesn't happen to me. I have only one level of anger. I'm either angry or not.
16. Happy Endings, New Girl, and Up All Night are my favorite shows right now. They are hilarious!
17. Still dreaming of the black Lexus LS with my name on the door.
18. The first thing I do every morning is check my e-mail and my ical. I like to have a general idea of what's going on that day.
19. I am not one of those people who have to have everything set in stone, I'm usually pretty easy going but once I commit to something I commit. I'll always say I'll visit but until I actually have the ticket....anything goes.
20. I LOVE to laugh.
21. I have a hate/hate relationship with commas. I love semicolons though.
22. I love to play games on my iphone but I usually move on from them pretty quickly. Games don't hold my attention for much longer than two weeks.
23. What does "split the infinitive" even mean???
24. I'm a bitch when I'm tired or hungry.
25. I have the best friends in the whole world.
