Bump...I am filling this out when I get home!

1. 22 going on 30... no one believes I'm 22 and I often forget myself
2. I own two amazing rescue dogs, a pitbull/jack russel mix named Kona that was hit by a car at 12 weeks old and has a permanently disfigured leg and a limp (we were gunna name her Pogo, but thought it was mean...), and Cash, a hyper, 70lb pitbull that's the biggest snuggle bug I've ever met!
3. I used to competitively ride horses and have fallen off and been bitten several times and was even kicked in the stomach so hard once that I had a hoof-shaped bruise for two-weeks!
4. I'm petrified of butterflies
5. My parents are my best friends and absolute role models
6. My boyfriend of over 5 years is in nursing school. I'm about to pull out my hair dealing with him as he goes through this!
7. I'm running my first half marathon in September and want to run the Chicago marathon in 2012 and the Disney marathon in 2013.
8. I've been to Disney World 9 times, am a self-proclaimed Disney addict, and even have a tattoo of Mickey Mouse
9. I own my own condo at the age of 22. I'm quite proud of my ability to establish good credit and put it to work at a young age
10. I'm a control freak and a neat freak... I'm very much a virgo
11. I played lacrosse in high school and love to wrestle around with the boys and play football... but my nails are always painted and I love jewelry, shopping, and shoes!!
12. I just started off a career as an event planner and I'm looking forward to seeing what it turns in to!
13. I love cooking... especially light cooking! Every Friday night I go to the grocery store and make all sorts of salsas, baked goods, and food for the weekend
14. I waited tables for 6 years and didn't really mind it too much. It's stressful, but if I didn't have to work full-time I'd still probably do it. It's a great way to get an opportunity to meet tons of people (and I could burn 800 cals in a shift easily).
15. My brother sat on me when I was 11 and broke my wrist
16. I'm passionate about animals and get very upset when people are afraid of my dogs just because they're "pit bulls". Just like you don't want to be stereotyped, neither do they. Same with Rottweilers, German Sheperds, Dobermans, etc.
17. I'd kill to live in San Diego or Colorado but would only move away from Chicago if I got an amazing job offer (DISNEY!!!!) or my parents moved with me.
18. I like things to be smooth and everyone to be happy. I'm working on not letting people take advantage of me.
19. I interned for a HORRIBLE lady and am not "trigger shy" at work. I'm always afraid that anytime I goof up that I'm going to get yelled at... learning that's not the case and working on it.
20. I absolutely love Fleur Di Lis... my mom does too. I went to New Orleans a few weeks ago and spent far too much money...
21. I enjoy my time alone. While I adore my friends, family, and boyfriend, I really need and love my time alone.
22. The guy that sits next to me at work REALLY annoys me... especially right now... his voice... ugh!
23. I actually think I'm really attractive. I could definitely lose some weight, but I love my smile and think I'm pretty cute
24. I LOVE to read. The best part of my job is that I have an hour commute and get to read on the train every day!
25. I'm really an attention hound. I love when people take notice of my efforts or even a new hairstyle or outfit. I love getting comments on my blogs, posts, etc... be my friend? :flowerforyou:

I'm super bored:

1- I love all colors but I surround myself with Green, Blue and Black and White.
2- People say that they don't drink to get drunk, I cannot avoid that as two drinks in I'm buzzing
3- I love nature - from a distance.
4- I was born in South Korea
5- I used to be a vegetarian and I still don't eat a lot of meat.
6- I have an IQ of 175-80 <--you need to talk about which IQ test you have taken and if it is valid, mine was and it's the Wechsler.
7- IQ is stupid
8- I sing every single day and it's a good thing I spend a lot of time alone
9- It's fun to translate entire conversations in my head via song lyrics
10- I've never been stung by a bee, jellyfish, yellow jacket or wasp
11- I wish so much that skin cancer was not real so I could toast my entire body like a lizard in the sun
12- I'm afraid of heights, practically phobic about insects, and swimming in the ocean
12- The dark isn't exactly fun for me either
13- I have zero tattoos. I might get one..or maybe not
14- Vegetables taste fantastic to me. I could probably survive on only vegetables. I feel sorry for those that don't enjoy them.
15- My grammar sucks
16- I live undercover in my neighborhood, if they realized what I was really like, they'd kick me out lol.
17- One of the things that would get all of the other uptight suburbanites panties in a bunch would be that I find it acceptable to smoke a joint on my back porch
18- When I was a little kid I used to think commercials were mini movies
19- I like being over prepared
20- I'm 35 and I feel young as hell
21- Used to have two cats named Virgil and Sydney. I wish they were still alive.
22- I love names and name things often and whenever I can
23- If they created any way to integrate proven technology to increase our personal memory or connect directly with technology I'd probably sign up (cyborgs)
24- If I weren't a mother and married and this were far in the future I'd be in space.
25- I hate stuffed animals and pink things
