    1) I have an uncontrollable fear of spiders.
    2) I play flute, and a few other instruments. (I was in high school marching band. Yes, I went to band camp....no, it wasn't like that).
    3) I have a 9 year old daughter who is visually impaired.
    4) I love kids and would love to have a few more.
    5) I am really good at using a sewing machine.

    :laugh: @#2...I play flute too. Any time I tell people that, the first thing that comes out of their mouth is...did you go to band camp?

    1. I hate when people ask me "favorites" questions. I'm too indecisive to pick just one when it comes to minor stuff! Lol

    2. I love to bake.

    3. I'm really into music....I've played the guitar and flute for the last 12 years, and I love to sing.

    4. I've gone to thirteen different schools in total (including college).

    5. I'm an insomniac...and sleeping too much freaks me out hahaha...(if you slept 8 hours every night, that's 1/3 of your life that you spend sleeping...if you lived to be 100, you'd have been asleep for approx 33 years of it!!!!)

    What's your favorite thing to bake. Kidding you don't have to answer

    And # 5 totally understand I use to spend all night not going to sleep because why stop having fun than taking up your life in bed. Having kids have taught me the beautiful thing that is sleep . Now I want all I can,

    1) I have an AA in Business and I'm almost finished with my BA in Child development.

    2) I'm a published poet, but not one-hundred percent happy with the work I've had published. I was published in the seventh and ninth grades, and once again in my freshman year of college. I hope to create a book of poetry one day and have that published (Even if it's self-published).

    3) I'm writing a book as I lose weight. Three chapters and a prologue are finished thus-far.

    4) I'm extremely excited about my UGW reward for losing weight - a new wardrobe. I'm so excited that I now use my Pinterest mostly for pinning ideas. I have a board for dresses, skirts, tops, jewelry, shoes, and jackets. I know it's a little extreme but it's very motivating and I can't wait to have the ultimate shopping spree (I'm saving up!) Here's my Pinterest for anyone who wants to look: http://pinterest.com/hayleymolloy3

    5) I'm not as cheery and optimistic as I appear on MFP. I mean, when I'm healthier and making better choices I probably am, but lately I've been kind of depressed. I still log in every day and sometimes post motivating quotes, but my friends have no idea that I'm the one who needs motivating. Sad, I know! I'm working on it. :)

    3. I live in New Zealand

    I desperately want to visit your country. Every time I see any tourist advert specials on New Zealand the beauty of your country side blows me away. It's probably the top thing on my bucket list to do

    1. I have trypophobia, fear of things like honeycombs and the patterns in tripe. Sometimes I can't stand to look at the insides of a sunflower or a car grill (particularly Dodge grills).

    2. I started smoking when I was eleven, quit when I was 33, crave those cancer sticks every single day.

    3. I can't look at paintings that I have done without thinking they are total crap that no one would ever want hanging in their home. I loved to paint until my husband started pushing me to try to make money with it. I went a year without painting and am just starting to get back at it. For pleasure only.

    4. I am probably at least bi-sexual.

    5. I cannot pronounce the letter "L" in the middle of a word.
