I did this on Facebook in early 2009 and I thought it would be a good blog post! I'm not sure if they compare/contrast well, but they are interesting to read. I am hoping to post more often!

Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you. you are obviously exempt if you have already posted.
1. There are about a million other things I should be doing right now: sleeping. studying...
2. My family is by far the most important thing to me. They are my 4 best friends. and without fail are the most amazing, giving people I have ever met.
3. I want to be an aunt, but not a mother. and possibly not even a wife.
4. I worry about everything. I over think everything people do and say. apparently, this is called general anxiety disorder. who knew.
5. I didn't believe in soul mates until I met my friends. They accept my odd, crazy, anxious ways. and I accept theirs.
6. I am absolutely terrified of the dark. and scary movies. and spit. and snakes (even on tv)
7. Marley Bear Rozelle is my yorkie pom poo. except she doesn't look like a bear anymore, more like a cat. She is really smart. Really fast. and does not listen to me whatsoever.
8. I think roommates are fun and a wonderful way to get to know someone. Mine are diverse and refreshing.
9. I have never played a sport, ever. Well actually I played soccer when I was six, some kid made fun of my name at the first practice and I quit.
10. I eat condiments on everything. If I can't dip my food in something, I probably won't like it. My diet basically consists of chicken. and wraps. with chicken in them.
11. Apparently, I am a messy eater. Recently I realized where I got this from- DAD!
12. Legally, my middle name isn't May. My mom had a completely natural childbirth and somehow wrote "Ann" on my birth certificate. BUT we didn't notice this until several years after "MAY" had stuck.
13. I am really sentimental. I tell everyone I love them, and tend to think once I have met you, we are already best friends. I like to talk a lot, sometimes I make people uncomfortable.
14. I'm not a very good driver, but I make up for it by driving slow. (or atleast I like to think I do)
15. I was absent more days in high school than I was present. I am still working on this.
16. The first bible I ever owned was given to me for my 19th birthday by two of my best friends, Mandy and Kristen. I am still learning a lot about my faith, and am considering myself a work in progress.
17. I can cook, but I don't. I can clean, but usually don't.
18. I like to people watch. It is kind of an obsession. I look at peoples blogs and facebook pages quite excessively. and I could sit in any public place and watch people. I get this from Grandma Janet.
19. "You are a catholic and if anyone ever saw your parents liquor cabinet they would believe it." - Kristen Funchess
20. I love to dance. but mainly by myself, no grinding.
21. Money burns a hole in my pocket. If I have it, I will spend it. Very simple.
22. I love to travel. I would go somewhere every weekend, break, summer if possible.
23. Along with my biological sister, God gave me over 200 sisters who constantly blow my mind with their outstanding motivation and hearts.
24. I love the clothes and culture of the 1920's. If I could be born again, I would live in The Great Gatsby.
25. I like to buy shots. for everyone. every chance I can.
Kristen has more about me....
26. I can somehow spend over $9 in one trip to Taco Bell.
27. I have moved about as many times as she threw up in fourth grade.
28. I thought it was Mardi Gras when it was New Years. and was named Ms. Mardi Gras 2009. I am still waiting for my sash by the way.
29. My kids (which I'm not having but Kristen is convinced I am) will be wonderful disasters that her kids will think are the coolest kids ever. and that scares Kristen.
30. When I'm awkward, I feel the need to tell people, which makes it funny. and this happens frequently.
31. One day, Kristen will pay me $500 an hour to shop for her, along with a million other people. and that is what I will call a career.
32. Gatorade is my source of energy on the weekends, and basically the week too. Blue Gatorade.
33. My day would be boring without Blackberry Messenger and the smiley faces on it. and my 14 contacts.
34. When I was 16, we went out of town for two weeks. On the first night someone put a catfish in our mailbox. Needless to say when we got back, after record breaking heat.. it kind of melted/molded/grew insects. My dad was really happy. My yard has also been forked, but never rolled.
35. My drunk name is Molly Rainforest. She steals stupid things, double fists whiskey sours, and will corner you to talk about life. She also will buy a round of shots. and act like she can afford it."
Today's 25 Things About Me'
1. I am currently doing laundry at my sister's apartment, because I do not have a washer and dryer at my apartment. Every month I say I am going to buy a set, but my money seems to go to other "necessities"
2. I have completely changed my life over the last year and a half. Location, Occupation, Appearance.. It was completely necessary, and the scariest thing I have ever done.
3. I am going to be an AUNT at the end of May. It is by far the most exciting and joyous thing that has ever happened to our family. It will be interesting to see how our "over 21" lifestyle adjusts with an infant.
4. I'm still not sure if I want to be a mother or a wife. I am hoping that God will lead me to someone who will make me believe in these things. I'm not holding my breath.
5. Following up from number 4, I am completely single. There is so much to be said for being independent at this time in my life. I have learned so much about myself.
6. I live in Buckhead in Atlanta, GA. But I stay so busy with work I don't get to do all the fun things around the city. I think I might need to make a Bucket List for this summer.
7. My room has to be arctic temperatures when I sleep. If I am hot, I won't sleep.
8. I think half of my diet lately consists of cereal and icecream. So satisfying. My roommate is trying to expand my world of cooking, but I am very resistant to it.
9. I've had 3 iPhones. 4 iPods. and 4 digital cameras. I am just really bad at keeping up with things. Although, my current iPhone serves as all three.
10. I travel a lot to see friends and family. The relationships in my life are important. My parents taught me that jumping in the car and driving to see the people you love is simple.
11. I'm growing my hair out to my butt.
12. I get a medium French Vanilla coffee with cream and sugar and two frosted sprinkle donuts at Dunkin Donuts every morning. It makes me SO happy.
13. I'm not a fan of traditional exercise, but I love anything outdoors. Hiking, camping, rafting, canoeing, climbing, frisbee golf..I'm lucky my dad is constantly planning stuff like this for us to do!
14. I love to dance. Although, I have no rhythm and I can't clap on beat. Anyone from Phi Mu theme night can attest to that.
15. It might surprise many to know that I am really informed on current events and into politics. I think that being informed and finding your own answers is so important.
16. I come from a family of dog lovers. I have Marley still, while my brother has two labs, my sister has a maltese, and my parents have a maltese and a lhaso apso. When we are all together its a zoo. I don't like cats, and when people tell me they are "cat people" I usually say "Oh, that explains so much" ;)
17. In 2010, I started my own business, Duet Accessories. Next month I will have a full website, and within the next six months I am hoping to have the financing to open a boutique. This is hard, complicated, and time consuming, but it is fulfilling a life long dream.
18. I love to buy gifts for people. I love the buy things in general. This is something I have to watch very closely. I tend to spend a lot, save too little.
19. I'm not afraid of the dark anymore. I've been through worse, and conquered it.
20. I would pay a hefty fee for just ONE afternoon on the refuge with my friends. In the last year we have moved all over the place. I think we are doing an excellent job staying in touch, but its the little things that I miss.
21. I feel like everyone around me is getting engaged, married, or pregnant. I think its hilarious that NONE of my best friends would touch those words with a ten foot pole. Fierce.
22. Chelsea, my roommate, and I work together. We spend an outstanding amount of time together. I still love her, and I am happy we challenge each other. and that we speak in Russian accents to each other.
23. I love anything antique or vintage. Anything upcycled or recycled. I just like taking something old and making it new. I also believe that 50-70 years ago people had much better taste than we do now.
24. I am walking the 3 Day breast cancer walk this year with my cousin, Jenny, in honor of Kaye. I am beyond excited to do this.
25. I'm the happiest I have ever been in my entire life. I am clear headed and moving forward. I have great people in my life, no "fluff" :)
