Confessions

1. I listen to my music too loud in the car. I love being absolutely enveloped by the sound. But I know I shouldn't...because I might hurt my eardrums someday (that's what my mom told me).
2. I love dancing, singing, and driving--at the same time--a dangerous occupation, perhaps, but I blame it all on my high school friend Amber Haueter White.
3. I have never been pulled over, but I have a j-walking ticket, and I accidentally stole gas once; so there's my criminal record for you. Don't worry, they (being the officers) found me, and I confessed in a written apology with the amount accidentally stolen.
4. I love eating raw cookie dough, and I haven't died yet.
5. Sometimes I would rather be reading by myself than in a crowd socializing.
6. Reality TV. So embarrassing. I never thought I liked reality TV until I found the Food Network and HGTV shows on Netflix. They are a guilty pleasure--Chopped, The Next Food Network Star, The Great Food Truck Race, Fixer Upper, International House Hunters, they are all things I shamefully enjoy, even though I know there are a lot more productive things in life: like reading, cooking, serving others, and being president of the United States. I blame this on Ben's MBA program and him being gone so much or doing HW, leaving me alone at random hours of the night.
7. I love music like Enya, Celtic Woman, and the Canadian Tenors. Nerdy but oh so true.
8. I also love clean, modern clean pop music that you can dance to!
9. I once was told I dance like a black person; I am still not sure how to interpret that.
10. When I used to straighten my hair occasionally, everyone would ask, indirectly, why I didn't do that more often or every day because it looked so much better (after 2 hours of hard labor). I tried not take that as an insult to my curly hair, but as you can tell, I'm not over it. It doesn't help that my husband thinks I would have been married much sooner if I had straight hair--indirect quote. Obviously, I wasn't affected enough to straighten my hair permanently. And good thing my husband now loves my hair curly :)
