...thus I return with a
meme.
1. I honestly believe that there is good in every single person on earth, and I make it my goal to seek it out.
2. I absolutely love getting and wearing jewelry, but I have managed to lose every single important piece of jewelry I've ever owned. I fear for my future wedding band.
3. I miss softball a lot sometimes. I especially miss the way it made me feel like I was a part of something, and how great it made my body feel to be in that kind of physical shape. I feel like a lump of lard now in comparison.
4. Sometimes I think I'm somewhat bipolar.
5. I could totally see myself getting into extreme sports. I love rock climbing, hiking, backpacking, camping, and I'm going to go kayaking and skydiving before I die.
6. I wish I could be an artist, but I don't think I have the talent, so it will never be.
7. When I read a book, I don't just sympathize with the characters - I become them, in my head. Sometimes (very rarely) it gets so bad that I get confused about what's reality and what's something I've read.
8. When I was in high school, I thought I was prescient because I kept having dreams that would come true.
9. My religious beliefs are an interesting conflict between Quaker Christianity and Wicca. I'm afraid sometimes that I'm going to hell, and at other times I believe there is no hell, and at other times I'm convinced that I'm saved from it. No matter what I do, I can't get away from what I grew up believing. It's an interesting day-to-day existence.
10. I think in music. There is always a song in my head, and it's the way in which I relate to the outside world.
11. There are several people in my life that I feel I could be great friends with, but I'm never sure how to begin with them.
12. I don't understand why people are so unwilling to talk about things. It's impossible to know a person if they always keep everything to themselves, and so many problems could be solved so quickly if we could just learn to have respectful conversations with each other.
13. I wish I could live off the grid, in a waste-free and simple existence.
14. I want to live in a foreign country.
15. I am not a city girl, though I don't mind visiting.
16. Connemara, especially the area around Killary Ford, is the first place on earth where I felt whole, and like I was being exactly the kind of person I wanted to be.
17. I love to write.
18. I feel like modern popular fiction is making us all dumber.
19. I feel like the Twilight books are encouraging superficial infatuations and the expectations that a relationship is going to be something easy and perfect. Relationships are work, people. That doesn't mean they're bad. Also, they're horribly written books. Horrible. Yet I couldn't put them down.
20. I know the world is becoming entirely self-centered, and I wish I knew what to do about it.
21. Swiss cake rolls rock my world.
22. When I play the piano, I get so lost in the music that you could be standing right next to me talking to me and I wouldn't notice you.
23. I finally know what I want in life and I'm working ceaselessly toward it, and that is one of the best things I've ever known.
24. I love being spontaneous and doing things to make other people smile.
25. Sometimes I zone out big time and people think something's wrong, but really I'm just thinking.
