The Introverted life

So online I found a list of 53 things about introverts and it made me all warm inside like a toaster. The bread that popped out of this little toaster? This post. So read the commentary on my personal favorites then go check out the link at the bottom. It's real GFG (Good For Giggles).

 53 is a lot to read so let me give you the highlights so you can understand me better:

#1.Have you ever been at a party with me and I suddenly just...disappear...I'm off recharging my battery. Leave me be.

#8. After about 3 text messages into our digital conversation you you be getting a saved response I have in my notes App.

#18. If you don't think I spend 3 hours every weekend starring at the ceiling fan or watching ripples in the river...you don't know me at all.

 #22. If you show up to my house unannounced and I'm not home...SHH! In actuality I'm probably watching you through the blinds wishing you away with my mind. I need time to prepare to talk to people. Even you. Sorry.

 #34. I hate introducing myself so this is the story of my life EVERY. SUNDAY.

 #37. If we are texting and you ask to call me I will literally go jump in the shower for 30 minutes simply so I can say I was too busy to answer your call. Talking on the phone is the devil. (I realize I probably shouldn't give away this little secret. Sometimes I actually DID just decide to take a 30 minute shower and it has nothing to do with you calling....) If I enjoy talking to you on the phone, consider yourself very special.

#44. When I really need alone time but life won't let me stay at home in bed, I put on headphones. So if you see me with headphones on and a slight scowl on my face, this is my equivalent to a turtle retracting into its shell. Or an armadillo. Or a hermit crab. Take your pick.

 Here's the list. Also, no commentary, but #2, #24, #48 and #49 made me laught the hardest. If nothing else look at those 4 (also, language warning for 21 and 42 :) https://www.buzzfeed.com/michelleregna/generic-excuse?bffbbooks&utm_term=.lqKYgL9oD#.wqm6Zwy1x

How I Met My Mother

     In order for you to fully understand my story I need to start 26 years ago in Tacoma, Washington. Born into the world was a little brown starfish with more hair than cousin It. She was cute. She was 4 pounds. She was me.      I won't go in to too much detail in order to respect my mother's privacy, but she wasn't at a place in her life where she could take care of me so I went into foster care. My birth mother came to a couple visits to see me, but shortly after, she disappeared. Two years later this awesome couple adopted me and a family was born. My parents were open with me about my adoption from Day 1. I never knew anything about my birth mother except what I could find on my birth certificate: name, birth date, etc.      Despite being happy, there was always a missing piece. I just wanted to KNOW. I wanted to know where I came from. I wanted to know what happened. I wanted to meet the person whose toes I inherited! That sounds really silly but it's true. Yo

Termites and Midnights and Night Lights

Hi! It has been too long. I've been...well I could say busy but I'd be lying. Actually I've been lazy and boring and that means watching lots of episodes of F R I E N D S , eating mac and cheese for breakfast, and taking naps in the sun . No one wants to hear about that. But I did do some fun things =) 1) B I O L O G Y I decided to take Biology this summer. Now, for those who don't know, Math and Science are the names of those two little demons in Disney's Hercules movie...at least in my mind. So Biology is my LAST general core class at BYU. Most people take it their 1st semester of college and I'm taking it my senior year. I've been dreading it. Well, so far it has been surprisingly enjoyable. We read a book called Voo doo Sci ence (I know, I know) and it was really cool. Now we are reading a book about decisions and it has guys blowing up missiles and fire figh ters in action. It rocks! Don't worry, it gets better. Today we played with TERMITES

You're worth it

Image
It was beginning to be one of those days. Couldn't find my glasses, locked my keys in my car, the shower nozzle broke and water got EVERYWHERE, cut my finger. Who let all the monkeys out of the cage?! SERIOUSLY?! I hate those days. Not only that, a particular person in my life was being hard on me and making me feel like an idiot. Whether or not that was their intention, I was starting to believe it. It all hit at once and it felt like too much to bear. Since crawling into bed and disappearing for a couple decades wasn't an option (I'd rather not sleep through the end of my twenties, I think they have lots of potential) I knelt down to pray. All I could say was "God, tell me I'm not an idiot. I just need to feel like I'm worth something." Almost instantly all those bad feelings went away and I felt, no, I KNEW I was important. Even if nobody else loved me (don't worry, I know I'm loved ❤️) I KNEW God loved me unconditionally. He knows my poten
