In other news, I’m looking to buy a new-ish car. Specifically a Jeep Liberty. I found several that I’m interested in but one of them got sold. I found a good one in Andover, it’s a 2007 and has 40,000 miles. One of my guidelines is that I can’t have a car with over 40k miles, and still has a warranty. I got approved for an auto loan through Chase and I’m just trying to find a car before March 16th, when my loan expires. So…..wish me luck!

Plans for my birthday are already processing…..I’m taking that Friday off [the 17th] and on my birthday we may be going out to dinner at Applebee’s in block E, then to the Twins game, and then back home to drink UV blue and lemonade. Friday when we wake up we are heading to Hinckley for the weekend. We’ll be home Sunday afternoon. I’m super excited! It will probably be my aunt, cousin, and a few friends. Seems pretty laid back.

Here are 25 random facts about me.

1. I like living and being alone…..it’s relaxing for the most part.

2. I am in the process of trying different types of wine. So far the only one that I really like is Moscato by Sutter Home or Gallo.

3. I love watching movies. I’m shooting for at least 15 per month now that I’m not in school anymore. Movie List

4. I have a weakness for actors who are older than me. Particularly Edward Norton and Johnny Depp.

5. I am the first person in my whole family to graduate from a 4 year college or university.

6. I love to eat pickles. I could eat them everyday.

7. Buffalo Wild Wings Thursday nights are my favorite……$0.60 boneless wings. Delicious.

8. I love my car to death………I don’t know what would happen if I were in a serious accident and it were totalled.

9.I only paint my toenails obnoxious colors like hot pink and bright red. Never anything neutral.

10. I seem to be the only one in my family who can SAVE money, which is odd because I am on a very tight budget.

11. I am a big texture person…..my blankets have to feel good against my skin, and I won’t eat food if it has a weird texture [like mangoes].

12. I played hockey for a really long time and I quit so that I could get a job and make money. I still love to skate.

13. There are always ice skates, a hockey stick and a pair of gloves in my trunk…….even during the dead heat of summer.

14. I am fairly particular about spelling. I cannot stand when people use the wrong form of words [too, to, two, and there, their, and they're]. Also, the word definitely. It comes from the root word definite, and EVERYONE spells it d-e-f-i-n-a-t-e-l-y. Boo.

15. I haven’t been much of a traveler because of time and money in the past. This is not stopping me anymore. I have 14 days of vacation per year and I’m going to spend each one of those days out of this state. I have already gone to Arizona this year, and I plan on Florida in April, and Las Vegas in October. Next year maybe New York City and Atlanta. Haven’t decided yet.

16.I used to speak fluent Spanish. I wish I spoke it regularly throughout college, because now I am very bad at it.

17. In July I am planning to move to downtown Minneapolis. Hopefully I can find a reasonably priced loft with underground parking.

18. I hate swimming. Everytime I’ve swam in the last 10 years I’ve almost drowned.

19. I have had my social work license for about 4.5 months, and still have not had it framed. The only reason for this is that I cannot justify spending $80 at Michaels to have it professionally framed. There is not a regular frame that fits the license.

20. I am interested in working in corrections sometime in the future, whether it be as a social worker or as a correctional officer.

21. I work for the Salvation Army with mostly homeless individuals and at times it can be very taxing.

22. I originally went to college wanting to be a doctor. I soon found out that med school was not for me because of the requirements.

23. I am planning to take a course at Century college in Phlebotomy so that I can moonlight as a vampire. [Don't get it? Google phlebotomy. ].

24. I enjoy spending my weekends being lazy on the couch and watching television.

25. I own 2 papasan chairs, and I am looking for a papasan couch for less than $50….this has been very difficult as they are $299 brand new. :/
