Introducing..... Countdown Style

So Liesl, did a Countdown about herself on her blog, and I thought it would be perfect as an intro for the Send Something Good introduction that I need to do about myself. It's a lot! Probably MUCH MORE than you want to know about me, but hey, you can skip parts, and I'll NEVER know!

 

This is ME:

 

 

 

TEN things I wish I could say to ten different people (but don't say their name):

1. You are a coward.
2. I think the way you view life is incredibly freeing, and I wish I could be a bit more like you.

3. I still wish we had gone on that date.

4. Guess what? It's gonna be okay.

5. Thank you for the message you wrote, you told me I had depth, was beautiful, funny, and so much more. Your words meant more than you realize.

6. You. You're my favorite memory when I think of an entire summer. I was so happy, too young to see past anything but the tall grass. It was wonderful.

7. You are so much more than you are doing in life right now, and I don't understand why you're letting it all pass you by.

8. I'm sorry I let you down, you deserved so much more.  

9. What's your favorite color?

10. You are the most wonderful friend a girl could hope for. Really, you are.

NINE things about myself:

1. I've never had my fortune told. I've had my palm read, which was so interesting. It's on my bucket list though.

2. I LOVE plays and ballets. But I really want to go to the opera.

3. My eyes are my favorite feature, they've got yellow sunflowers in the centers, most people don't notice that.

4. I can shape my tongue into a 3 leaf clover.

5. I really want to spend a day at the beach, doing absolutely nothing. One day.....

6. When I was younger, I used to read the dictionary, and when my eyes got tired, I'd read the stories in the Reader's Digest.

7. I love to climb trees.

8. I want to own a ballgown. My friend Jen and I have planned for years to throw a masqued ball, just so we could buy ballgowns and dance the night away.

9. I love to be creative, even if I don't finish the mass majority of my projects.

EIGHT ways to win my heart:

1. It's the little things, brushing my hair from my eyes, holding my hand, anything that let's me know you just want to be next to me.

2. Surprises.

3. Letters in the mail.

4. Humor, I love nothing more than a good giggle.

5. Names.

6. Stargaze with me.

7. Chivalry.

8. Kisses, always kisses.

SEVEN things that cross my mind a lot:

1. The Past.
2. Ideas I want to try from Pinterest. So Pinteresting!

3. Gardening Ideas.

4. Finishing my house.

5. Love.

6. Places I want to travel to.

7. The Future.
