'Perfect Imperfections'

This is a challenge from PrettyPrettyPrincessPosts:

-3 things you DON'T like about yourself
-3 things you DO like about yourself
-3 UNIQUE things about yourself

So here we go!

I do NOT like:

-My nose-EW!!! It's just weird shaped and nasty...

-My nails-they're fun to play around with and paint, but sometimes they're just annoying. Especially my toenails-I trip ALL the time-I cannot even count the times I have tripped and broken a toenail, and then ended up bleeding everywhere...yech

-My violin skills-I started when I was in 6th grade (long time ago), and I really haven't gotten any better. But Mama Bear is convinced that if I practice I'll get better (I beg to differ)

I absolutely, and totally LOVE:

-My legs-you will never see anything above the knee, because I am super conscious about my white thighs (yes, even when I swim I wear jean cutoffs), but I love my calves. They LOOK muscular, and they probably are. This year in college, I was in a 3-story building and some idiot decided to put my classes on the 1st and 3rd floors, with my schedule having them 10 minutes apart. The elevator is on the OTHER side of the building, so it was just faster to take the stairs. BUT IT KILLED ME!!! Needless to say, I actually was 'working out' this year. : P

-My music sense-Music has been a huge part of my life, mainly on my dad's side of the family. My grandma played piano, my dad plays piano, and I play piano. But a lot of my family has sung, too. I have really bad stage fright, so I wouldn't be caught dead singing a solo (that hasn't stopped my mom from making us four kids sing... IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE CHURCH!!!!)

-My 'Level-headedness'- A lot of people who know me very well have said I'm very level-headed, and very grounded. This is true! I also try to keep an open mind when meeting new people, and it makes me sad to see people treated poorly because of how they are (cultural background, financial situations, etc..). Seriously, people? We're all human! NO ONE IS PERFECT!!!!

3 unique things:

-I can sorta-kinda-maybe play the harp. I purchased one approximately 2 years ago, and LOVE it!!! I can't play it very well, but I do practice-that one I am determined to accomplish!

-I am super mega quiet. It's not necessarily that I don't have anything to say, I just live by the motto, "It is better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt." (Mark Twain). I am not very street smart (and not always booksmart, either), but at least I know when to shut up!

-I have never lived outside of the northern half of Utah. (okay, this one isn't unique-just boring) Most of my family lives here, and my parents have always had good 'luck' with schools, jobs, and teachers, etc, and have never found a reason to move out of state. I sure do love to travel, though!!

So that's just a piece of me, most of it you've probably known because of the blog...so TAG!!! You're it-go post about you!!!

  1. YAY! I love it! I also always get a swim suit with swim shorts. I just don't like how if you get a wedgie with the swim suit people will notice it, and I don't like the look of my thighs.. YUCK :)
