50 Random Thoughts that You Probably Don't Care About

I am kind of bored and homework doesn't seem all that appealing right now, so I decided to compile a list of 50, yes 50, things about me or that pass through my mind on a fairly regular basis. I am not doing this because I like talking about myself (well, that's not the biggest reason anyway) but more so because I wanted to challenge myself to see if I could come up with a 50 things about me that are semi-interesting. If you bore easily, I suggest you stop now. This post is probably going to be rather dull.

50) I don't feel like I watch a lot of TV, but I know I do. I try really hard not to start watching a new show because I get addicted to it easily. Then I hear my friends talking about how amazing the show is and I start watching. 

49) I will forever and always love Hanson. Yes, Hanson. If I died right now, I would die a happy woman because I saw them live for the first time last year. 

48) For whatever reason I have always had this strange feeling that I was going to die young. I don't have any desire to die, but I just get a weird feeling that it's going to happen. It's not something I am scared of. In fact, I am oddly okay with it.

47) I hate crying in front of people. When I am alone, I will blubber like an idiot. If I am around others though, I try to hold it in. Some people probably think that I don't have a soul because of it.

46) I never had a strong desire to rebel against my parents. It never made any sense to me. Maybe it's because my parents weren't very strict in the first place.

45) I am really excited to have a family, but have absolutely no desire to start one anytime soon. I want at least 3 kids.

44) The 3 people I am closest to in this world are my grandma, grandpa, and granny. I would be totally lost and a completely different person without them in my life.

43) My Granny's favorite story to tell is from when I was about 3-years-old. She was asking me about a movie I saw and asked me what theatre I went to. I replied, "at a theatre near you". We were on the bus and she said she nearly peed herself laughing.

42) I have had 3 majors in college. I am going to get my undergrad degree in communicative disorders, but I have no ambition to go into that field. I want to go into student affairs.

41) Because I want to go into student affairs, I have a pretty limited choice of grad schools, which means that I have to live somewhere away from home and that idea both excites me and scares the shit out of me.

40) The earliest memory I have is being in church with my Granny playing with my toys. I don't know why I held onto that memory

39) I have always wanted to learn to yodel, but I have heard that it's really difficult.

38) My first actual job was working at a pharmacy. I like to tell people that I sold drugs

37) I'm not really like either of my parents. I have my dad's dumb, weird sense of humor and that's about it, really.

36) When I am stressed or overwhelmed, I love taking long, hot showers. They seem to calm me down

35) I grew up having cats as pets. I have always wanted a dog though. 

34) In a period of 8 months, I went through 3 Razr cell phones. They suck.

33) I try hard to be good with money, but I am way too impulsive for my own good and it's gotten me into trouble more than a few times.

32) I lived in Chicago for about 6 months and then I realized that I wanted to be closer to home.

31) I have the best job in the world. I have seen things that I never thought I would and met people that have had a tremendous and positive impact on my life.

29) I hate dead baby jokes. They make me want to cry.

28) The Wizard of Oz will always put me in a good mood.

27) If I could sleep all day, I would. Alas, I have a little thing called class and a job that prevents me from doing so.

26) I am trying this new thing where I eat healthier. It's really difficult to do with the food they serve in our cafeteria. 

25) My idea of a fun night is just chilling with friends. Every once in awhile I have this urge to get plastered, but I would rather not spend the money. Sometimes I go to watch other people get wasted. That's always fun.

24) I hate scary movies. It takes me forever to get to sleep after I watch one.

23) My current favorite read is a book called The Shack. It's a pretty difficult read and it's taken me a long time to read because of that.

22) A lot of people think that I have a lot of patience. On the contrary, I don't with everyone. I usually have more patience with kids and my residents than with anyone else.

21) Most people can't stand vomit, blood, or anything else like that. I, surprisingly, have a strong stomach for that stuff.

20) I can't stand seeing needles being poked into skin. I don't know why, but it gives me the chills.

19) When I go home, I stay up all night watching Nick at Night. It makes me feel old that now they are playing shows from my childhood.

18) Nothing makes me happier than putting a smile on someone else's face.

17) I think I am pretty good at accepting things that I can't change. It makes me a lot happier by doing that. 

16) I am a pretty big optimist. Most people can see that as a fault, but I am a realist and I know that bad things happen. I try to see the good in situations though.

15) I hate Shia LaBeouf

14) I also hate Rachel Ray

13) I can out burp a lot of guys I know. That grosses some people out. Oh well.

12) My favorite weather is sweatshirt weather. My favorite sweatshirt to wear is my Hanson one.

11) My favorite time of the year is when hockey and baseball overlap

10) I used to microwave ice cream and then eat it with a fork

9) Unlimited texting was the best investment I ever made

8) I really want a tattoo, but my fear of needles is keeping me from that.

7) I hate when people mix up homonyms. It's not that difficult to distinguish "its" from "it's". 

6) I also dislike poor grammar in general, especially with college students. Go watch some School House Rocks and get it right.

5) That being said, I love editing papers. I became the go to person for that last year. It was so much fun, even if the boys liked to wait until the last possible minute to ask me.

4) My least favorite part of my job is the confrontation. It sucks, but I am a lot better at it than I was when I started.

3) I am so glad that I am out of middle school and high school. I have seen middle schoolers and high schoolers today and it scares me for our future.

2) For being in a job that requires organization, I am definitely not.

1) Online shopping is my guilty pleasure
