Here are 20 things about me you may or may not know but most people won't know...
1. I'm terrified of chickens and the dark.
2. I've read the Bible all the way through.
3. I've been called into Christian ministry, I'm just not sure where yet.
4. I don't express my emotions very well-- I bottle up.
5. I have a hard time making eye contact while talking, unless the topic of conversation is funny and light.
6. I love classical music.
7. I used to struggle with a secret sin, which some of you are aware of (almost 8 months free of it though!!!).
8. I play the tenor saxophone and am attempting guitar.
9. I write poetry, and it is either about love or it's angry. I've been published three times.
10. I wrote a song, but only one person has ever heard it, and that is because he was recording it for me.
11. I'm an over-achiever in most aspects of my life-- I'm a perfectionist to a fault.
12. I have a weakness for intense eyes, a kind smile, flowers, beautiful words, and strong hugs.
13. I cry at chick flicks, and even at non-chick flicks (War of the Worlds, The Longest Yard, etc... it's not hard to get me crying at a movie).
14. I rarely cry about things that happen in real life, unless I'm very, very upset, angry, lonely, or frustrated.
15. I got my name from one of my dad's ex-girlfriends in high school (he really loved the name Tracey) and then my middle name from a Beatles song (Michelle).
16. I have family members in the movie "Deliverance" and my aunt was in both "Adams Family" movies.
17. I love Shakespeare, especially 'Hamlet' and 'Romeo and Juliet'. I also like Goethe's 'Faust', Dante's 'Inferno', The Illiad, The Odyssey... OK, I just like plays in general.
18. I'm on my way out of my Chapter 40-- Chapter 41 is in sight!!!
19. I love the rain-- I love to watch thunderstorms roll in, to feel the drops on my skin, the wind in my hair, the electricity in the air...
20. I have more pictures of my dog in my dorm room than pictures of anyone else.
And I pass this on to: Mike, Colin, Andrew, and Joseph.
