NUMERO SIXTY!

So since this is the sixtieth blog, I figured that I would write sixty things about the Mayralicious that we all know and love.
1. I know that i am a daughter of Heavenly Father. He loves me and I am blessed. I have been given so many talents and I am trying hard to utilize them.

2. I love to sing. I love music and singing and the joy that it brings to me.

3. I actually stopped singing for almost two years and it was TERRIBLE. But I think that i needed it to realize just how important it is to my life.

4. I want to be in college SOOOO badly right now. I wasted a whole semester and I kick myself every time I hear about people that are in college.

5. I love to write in journals but I procrastinate and don't get around to it.

6. I also LOVE to write letters. At one time, I had pen pals in three states and four different countries.

7. I love receiving letters almost more than sending them out.

8. I love my family a whole bunch...even though we fight, we're messy and loud, and my neighbor down the street once commented that he wasn't sure just how many people REALLY were living there because he'd seen about thirty people or so that were "re-occuring Characters" in our crazy lives.

9. I'm adopted. Sometimes I wonder about my birth family but then I remember how great my REAL family is and I'm totally happy with what I've been given =]

10. I want to find a fairy-tale romance, but I would HATE to be a wimpy princess. Snow white?! SLEPT. Sleeping Beauty? Self-explanatory. Even Cinderella had someone take care of her. I'd rather be like Mulan or Pocahontas.

11. I want to be married in the Temple and I will settle for nothing less.

12. I'm pretty self-conscious at times but I know that I'm pretty most days so it's all good. I also try to be as friendly and awesome as possible. That makes up for all the things I'm insecure about.

13. I LOOOOOVE to help people.

14. I ABSOLUTELY ADORE setting up couples. Call me Hitch. Or Yenta! Right? Of Course Right!!

15. I love to laugh and I try to keep humor alive. Nearly everything can be helped a little with humor.

16. I want a dog VERY badly.

17. I'm addicted to caffeine, texting, and my computer.

18. I love to do crafts....Crochet, painting, even coloring with Crayons.

19. I love making lists.

20. I use the word Love waaaaayyy too often.

21. I discovered that I am allergic to dust. Dang.

22. I secretly adore cleaning.

23. But I HATE doing laundry!!!!

24. I write about really deep stuff and then get nervous because of how deep it is so I start talking about cats.

25. I'm a voracious reader.

26. I have workaholic tendencies so I try to be verrrry careful. I can literally make myself sick from over-working myself.

27. Secretly, I'm still a little bit afraid of Eggs....and fish.

28. I'm not afraid of much else. Which is ridiculous.

29. I want to be a mommy really badly....and then I hear all the REALLY whiny kids misbehaving in the mall or Wal*Mart and two things go through my head....One, I'm SOOOO grateful that my Mom was very strict and never allowed temper tantrums in public, and two, "Wow I'm glad I don't have kids yet!!!"

30. MY mother is the best in the whole world. Just so you know.

31. I wanted to Marry the most patient guy in the world, but there are two that I know that are competing for the same spot and they're both taken...My dad, and My Grandpa Halcomb, who is BY FAR the most patient person I've ever met in my LIFE!!!

32. I have RSS. Which is a self-diagnosed illness that is properly called Restless Soul Syndrome. It means that I've got to move around because I'm a glove and my Spirit goes crazy at night if I stay still for too long. I have to be walking or pacing or driving. I have a whole vignette about it but it's too lengthy to go into here.

33. I LOVE to write. I write poetry and short vignettes and I want to be a REAL writer someday.

34. I'm almost nineteen and I still really haven't made a concrete decision as to what I want to do with my life.

35. I have a job that drives me up the wall.

36. My favorite smells are: Freshly baked bread (especially Gingerbread!!), Arizona Rains, Men's Cologne (when worn in small doses), and for some odd reason, Gasoline.

37. My favorite colors are Green, purple, and Blue.

38. I know that most people HATE living in an apartment, but I REALLY want to live in one. I'm sure I'll feel differently when I actually do live in one, but I LOVED the dorms.

39. I have my whole life planned out and it's really funny cuz I write out a "Life Plan" about once a year and I go back and read them and almost die laughing. Every single time, I have a different opinion about who I want to marry.

40. I adore going on dates.

41. It always impresses me when a guy asks me out or for my number. That takes guts. Even if I'm not terribly interested, I almost always say yes because I really admire their bravery. That sounds sorta vain....wait....

42. It also really impresses me when a guy goes out of his way to do something interesting or different for a date or for asking for one.

43. I've been proposed to WAAAYYY too many times. But when the Right Guy asks me, I'll tell him I said no to all the others because I just KNEW that he would be coming.

44. I'm secretly terrified that I may never get married. I know it's an illogical fear. But I'm still afraid.

45. I love watching spooky movies...Especially old ones. The newer ones are either too gory or they throw in a lot of immorality.

46. I get distracted VERY easily.

47. I want to be a better Scrapbooker but I don't have the time, money, or Materials.

48. I LOVE making blankets for other people.

49. I push the snooze button about eight times, so I have to set my alarm like an hour and a half earlier than I really need to get up.

50. I take a LOT of pictures, but I'm not a very photogenic person in my opinion.

51. To compensate for that lack of photogenicity(is that a word?!), I take a LOT of goofy pictures.

52. I know next to nothing about taxes and I worry about having to deal with them every year for the rest of my life.

53. I realized that I am an adult...and it sorta scared me.

54. My friends are the best! They mean the whole world to me, and I would do ANYTHING for them!!

55. I have NO inhibitions about going up to people and introducing myself. That could probably get me into trouble someday.

56. I LOVE pickles!

57. I've started working out and it's difficult but I'm already seeing results!!

58. I act very goofy and ditzy, but I am a very intelligent person. I have been blessed with a sound and good mind and the ability to learn. And I am SO grateful for that.

59. I'm a very bubbly, warm person and as much as I talk, I'm also a WONDERFUL listener. And I give pretty good advice too.

60. I actually really enjoyed doing this!! You should write sixty things about yourself too!!!!

<3 <3 <3 Mayralicious!!!!
