I'm The Type Of Girl Who Can Watch Hours Of Horror Movies And Not be Scared But Screams Bloody Murder When The Toast Pops Out Of The Toaster


Apparently I am endearingly charming. Who knew?

1 When I was little, I used to spend hours on the swing set in my backyard, trying the swing high enough to fly.

2 I have a ridiculous amount of purses and shoes, yet sometimes I get the feeling that if they were all to suddenly disappear, I wouldn’t care. Almost as if I only have things because I feel like I’m supposed to.

3 I love being driven around, and sticking my head out the passenger side window and feeling the wind on my face and in my hair, I even like it when its snowing.

4 I am the messiest, most disorganized person ever, and I have no intention to change, whatsoever. I’ve actually gotten to the point where I am amused, by it all.

5 I still watch cartoons sometimes, and often get way too involved with them.

6 Sometimes I wonder if we could just be characters in a movie, book, or TV show, and some author somewhere is writing our lifes, as a story, and if they`re laughing at our pathetic attempts to find meaning. Or if the entire world is just a dream. Who’s dream it is, I really have no idea.

7 I think in terms of movies, seeing everything as scenes and needing the music that is playing to perfectly sync up to what is going on, or to what I’m feeling, like a soundtrack.

8 I have extremely vivid dreams, that alternate from being impossible fairy tale-type things, and being so close to real life that for days afterwards, I am unsure whether or not it actually happened.

9 I desperately want bright yellow walls, and big, bright windows. I am also hopelessly obsessed with kitsch, loving things that look like things, such as my chocolate bar mirror, bright colours and wild patterns, and little desk toys.

10 I love big funny words, like zeitgeist, sycophant and oxymoron and make a point of using them, even when they don’t apply. When I was little, I invented my own words, like Hilo (Hi and Hello), and Cha-Chos (how I said Chaos).

11 I don’t like they type of foods (like steak, or any type of poultry), served at any fancy meals, or special occasions, and sometimes I think it would be very easy for me to be a vegetarian.

12 I love dressing up in costume, and still play dress-up, making characters out of my own clothes, when I need to cheer-up. I also have a penchant for winged eyeliner.

13 I am weirdly superstitious about some things, needing anything with a number to be one of my three lucky numbers (3,6,9)or a combination of them. I also have a lucky necklace and bracelet, that I have to wear when I’m worried about something. I also, try to find significance in everything, finding that whenever I just heard about something or am interested in a certain topic, it or things related to it, appear everywhere, or that if I did something one day and a certain thing happened, then if I do it again, the same thing will happen again.

14 I constantly fall for the villains or anti-heroes in stories, finding them more interesting and endearingly flawed, then the heroes who are often boring one dimensional characters.

15 Thanks to my Dad, my childhood memories are mainly focused around on three things: Batman (I was Batgirl, now I`m more Harley Quinn), Records and the Beatles. I was also obsessed with The Last Unicorn and The Wizard of Oz.

16 I actually prefer simple daisies and dandelions to big expensive bouquets. I love it when it the spring, the field in front of BR is full of golden dandelions, and looks like the yellow brick road, and then In summer, is full of their wispy ghosts, that you can pick and make wishes on.

17 When I was little, I wholeheartedly believed in Unicorns, Fairies, and Mermaids.

18 Sometimes i wonder if I am really as grown-up and capable of taking care of myself as I like to think. Sometimes, i still feel like a little girl who was forced to grow up, and like I missed something important.

19 I seriously envy those characters in fiction, who can just leave everything in the middle of the night, put of long cloaks and go on quests or have fantastic adventures.

20 I want to be part of some big movement or revolution, or some interesting pop culture event that becomes part of history and that everybody`s kids learn about in school.

21 Whenever I go to sleep I feel like I am wasting time, and that i should be doing something else. I love staying up really late, until everyone else has gone to sleep and I feel like I am alone in the world, or like I am watching it from somewhere else.

22 I love that moment, when in an airplane, you are taking off and the ground feels like it is disappearing under your feet. I always take my shoes off and feel the ground under my sock feet. I also really like motorcycles. I actually wish I had enough courage to get one, one day. It just seems so free.

23 I am both extremely scared and incredibly excited to go away to school next year, I`m getting worried about starting all over (again).

24 I come off as a very timid, shy person on first impression, but if you get to know me, I really never shut-up (then you wish I was shy).

25 I love to laugh, (Hi, ten minute laughing fit) it is one of the best feelings ever, like letting your guard down and letting everyone see the real you.
