1/25/2012-What Makes You "You"?

There are a few things that I think make me the person who you all know (and love!) Don't eat strange foods, knows lots of unimportant trivia, not assertive, shy, uncomfortable in unfamiliar settings, funny, good memory, minimal willpower, fickle. What a combo!

  1. Besides being highly intelligent and drop dead gorgeous I also have the following qualities – lack of self control, sometimes wild, sometimes grumpy (when I don't eat), sometimes mean, but usually nice – sometimes to a fault. I also love pj's, sparkling water, coffee, wine (obvi) salads, sourdough and going out to eat. I always find money wadded up in my pants pockets and love cheesy pop music. I clean a lot.

  2. Stubborn, immature, super sensitive and has a temper(only certain people see these), sassy, loyal, passive aggressive, loves food and will try any kind of food, silly, laughs at everything, easy going, homebody, Auntie, very good at keeping secrets, 90s R&B and boybands are my guilty pleasure, has a soft spot for dogs, especially labs, and I recently found out that I have an extra spleen.

  3. extra spleen annie? wowza!
    you all are being way honest and way critical of yourselves. I think all of you need to put "beautiful", "great friends" "caring" and "generous" too!

    If I'm being honest,I suppose I would describe what makes me as, sensitive, motherly, excitable, passionate, organized, a bit moody, and I tend to stay in my comfort zone. I love to be with my family and prefer to stay home and drink wine over going out to a bar. I have very few people that are really close to me and prefer it to stay that way. I'm not one to want new friends, I like the ones I have. Although I love to gossip and talk with my friends, I push away people that are aggressive, judgmental, superficial, loud.

    1. Haha! Me too in terms of being happy with the close friends I have. I feel weird when I say that I don't want any new friends. I love the ones I have.

  4. I'm silly with those I'm comfortable with. Can take life too seriously. I'm sensitive and sometimes too sensitive. I have high expectations for people. Love to be around people, but really enjoying staying home, too. Like to drink, but not by myself. Worry about what people think of me. Very empathetic. Love children. Generally nice, but show my temper if I feel hurt or betrayed. Wear my heart on my sleeve (and on my skin, since I flush easily when happy, mad, etc. Ha.) And have discovered through living in new cities that I come across outgoing and meet new friends easily, even though deep down it's out of my comfort zone. And kris - I always find folded up money in my pockets too!!

  5. loving reading all these. extra spleen for annie -- well, fun fact about me, i've got an extra kidney. overachievers in the organ department in this group!

    about me, hmmm, well: i love me some delicious food and can appreciate craft beer and a good glass of wine (or 10). i would eat anything and love to try new things. i love to travel. and to also pack light. i could go on a 2 month trip to europe w/ one backpack and be happy about it. i'm adaptable. you could throw me into any environment or situation and i would find my way comfortably. love dogs. love the outdoors and love to sweat (by getting a good workout). i have a knack for world war II and have read tons of non-fiction books from that time. i'm loyal, go with the flow, independent and modest. i have a spiritual side that most people don't know about. love bright colors combined with earth tones and gold accessories. i have a brown thumb (trying to turn it green). i have friends from all walks of life and love them all very much for who they are and what they bring to my life.

  6. This is such a good topic!
    Hmm I'm very stubborn and have selective hearing - I only hear what I want t to hear. I'll argue anything even if I agree with you and sometimes I make stuff up or exaggerate. I am loyal (sometimes to a fault). I'm religious and believe that god has an excellent plan for me, and that has allowed me to take the chances I have (moving to NY and ATX w/o and job). I make friends easily and refuse to lose them, so now I find myself not wanting to get as close to friends here in Austin bc I wont have room/time for them! I get stressed easily and hold it in which results in throwing up, shingles, who knows what else - so I have to go running or to yoga to help balance that. I am a freak about organization and clutter. I love my friends SO much.
