Hmm... let's see...

1. I'm left handed.

2. I love my camera more than I love most (MOST, keyword...) people. No lie.

3. I plan on having a ton of kids. For those of you that know/have seen my nephew, you know that I love him more than life itself. I want a LOT of kids. If I was financially stable and in a stable relationship, I would have kids now. I'm 20. I've had that mentality since I was 16.

4. I hope to pursue photography someday.

5. My family means a lot to me. Lots of kids nowadays don't like their families much, but I really do love my family; all of them. My grandparents are also pretty amazing... my family is the only thing keeping me from getting the heck out of Wisconsin.

6. I care too much about people. And the wrong people, too. I put my heart and soul into everything I do, and I care more about making other people happy than I do about making myself happy. There are a few people out there who I would do ANYTHING for, just to see them smile.

7. I'm addicted to doing surveys and posting them on myspace and facebook and such. I have TONS.

8. I'm also addicted to quotes. I have tons saved on my computer, tons on my livejournal, tons in a binder... having a few simple words explaining how you feel about something its just reassuring.

10. I want to learn to speak and read Latin.

11. I follow no religion. I'm agnostic.

12. I am a virgin. Yes, I'm 20, and a virgin. My friends are all shocked when they find out. It's not that I'm begging to lose my virginity or I even CARE about losing it, I'm just waiting for the right person.

13. I have two tattoos. One is a bass clef and a treble clef in the shape of a heart on my left wrist. The other I got done last night. It's on my back and it says in Latin, "Dum spiro spero" which means "While I breathe, I hope". I plan on getting another one soon for Gavin.

14. I love to text. I sent nearly 8,000 a month. (be shocked, I know...)

15. I want to learn to play the cello. I've always loved the cello.

16. I played french horn for 7 and a half years before I quit. I regret it every day, I just didn't enjoy the college symphonic band AT ALL.

17. I have really bad stage fright. Public speaking is my worst enemy.

18. I have big feet. Like... big. Size 11, anyone?

19. I'm horrible with spending money. My bills get paid, but I spend money way too fast.

20. I'm a dog groomer. I love my job, very very much.

21. I smoke. (yes, yes, I know...)

22. I have two men and one woman in my life that I can tell everything to.

23. I HATE getting up early. I am SOOO not a morning person.

24. I've only been kissed twice.

25. I have a scar on my cheek from getting bit by our lhasa apso we had when I was one.

26. I've been driving for almost 4 years, and I've never been pulled over or gotten a ticket. I have been in two minor accidents, one wasn't my fault.

27. I have only passed out once. It was at work and I hit my head on the floor. I don't recommend it. =p

28. My mom has 7 sisters. Altogether, there are over 30 cousins on my moms side of the family alone, and over 10 second-cousins. I love my family. =]
