1. I'm a vegan and proud of it =) I'm no longer a vegan, but I'm going on 6 years of vegetarianism.
2. I hate the sound of silverware scraping against glass. This is still true.
3. Whistling reaaaallly annoys me. This is still VERY true.
4. I love writing. This is why I'm an English major with a concentration in creative writing.
5. I want to read as many books as I possibly can. I haven't worked very hard at this goal lately, but I still want to read as many books as possible.
6. I'm petrified of bridges. I have overcome this phobia.
7. I have panic attacks when I see clowns. ANY CLOWNS. I have overcome this phobia.
8. I'm afraid of the dark. I have overcome this fear.
9. I believe in ghosts. Some things never change.
10. I want to go ghost hunting. I still have not done this and that makes me sad.
11. I dont trust many people. Does anyone actually really trust anyone?
12. I believe the world would be a better place if everyone was bisexual. Correction: the world would be a better place if people were more accepting of the LGBT community, but life could be easier if we dismissed those boundaries that we set for ourselves and let ourselves fall in love/lust with the people that make us happy. Your soulmate is not necessarily of the gender you are most attracted to.
13. I'm agaisnt war. Correction: I am against the excessive use of force to benefit ones own country/religion/political agenda.
14. I think gay marriage should be legal everywhere. Clearly.
15. I believe in aliens. ALIENS.
16. I sing reaally loud when I think no one can hear me. I mean, don't we all?
17. I have like 5 panic attacks per month. I always knew that this was abnormal, but I was too afraid/ashamed to get help. My panic attacks are few and far between thanks to my bipolar meds and my therapy sessions.
18. My favorite colors are blue, green and brown. Yup.
19. I hate wearing skirts, but would love to wear dresses every day if I looked good in them. Ahhhh, things have changed. I love wearing skirts and I look hella good in the right dress.
20. I'm really weird and I love that. So much weird.
21. I'm pretty much the bitchiest person you'll ever meet if you get on my bad side. This is true for most people, no?
22. I don't judge people unless they give me a damn good reason to. Sure, keep telling yourself this, Amy. We all judge everyone every moment of the day, but we pick and choose what we keep in our heads and what we say out loud.
23. I bet most of the people I tag in this wont read the whole thing, but that's okay. If you're reading this, I'd like to thank you for clicking the link to read my blog.
24. I stalk peoples lives on facebook when I'm bored. YES I DO. If we're friends on Facebook I've most likely stalked your page.
25. I love the park. I don't go often, but parks are beautiful places.
26. I hate the beach. I hate the beach in the summer, but in the fall its a wonderful place to be when the sun is setting.
27. I hate most of the people in Long Branch High School. LOL, true.
28. I want to be famous. I want to inspire people. I want to be successful. I want to lead a happy life.

30. Smiling is on my to do list. I remind myself all the time.
31. I love screamo music. I mean sometimes I do.
32. I hate rap, unless I'm hyper and want to dance to it. Basically.
33. I don't dance. Well, I don't dance well. I dance when I'm drunk... you can imagine what that looks like.
34. Even though I dont dance, I want to dance in the pouring rain in the middle of the street. Yes.
35. Pennsylvania is my favorite place in the world. Yes and I haven't been in quite a while.
36. 5 is my favorite number. Always has been.
37. I often have several crushes at once. This gets me in trouble.
38. I dont think I'm pretty. I make time every day to look in the mirror and point out one thing about myself that I like that day; sometimes it'll be the same thing for days in a row, but some days its different. I'm learning to love myself, I'm learning to feel beautiful, I'm learning that I need to stop measuring my own beauty based off of someone else's beauty. I am beautiful.
39. I belive in magic. Not really, but that would be cool.
40. I want to be a doctor. I used to want to be a veterinarian, but now I want my PhD. in English.
41. I want to have a huge house when I grow up. I want to have a place that I can call home. A place that I look forward to coming home to each night... that I own... that is all mine.
42. I believe in the illuminati. Deadass.
43. Love will find it's way to everyone. Even in my darkest times I've always believed this. Love is a crazy thing and just because you haven't found that romantic type love I guarantee there is someone in your life right now who loves you.
44. I believe that everyone is faced with several roads they can go down, but only you can choose which one is right for you. Your life is in your hands and you have control over the way you live your life.

47. I have an addiction to food. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF.

51. If I help save one person's life before I die, I will be able to rest in peace for all of eternity. Yes.

53. I fall for people too easily. I don't know what falling is.
54. Pain is a part of life that I have learned to live with. This is still true, but also untrue. I know how to deal with the pain of failure. I have learned healthy ways to alleviate the physical pains caused by my ailments.
55. I have type 2 diabetes, PCOS, spina bifida, depression, anxiety, amongst many other things, but thats what makes me.... ME. I am not my disease. CORRECTION: I have PCOS (under control), diabetes (under control), the depression and anxiety happen to be Bipolar Disorder (under control too). I AM NOT MY DISEASE.

59. I laugh alot at stupid things that arent funny. Well, this will always be true.
60. I talk too much. YUP. 
61. I don't smile much, but that doesnt mean I'm not happy. I smile a lot and I am generally pretty happy most of the time.
62. I get hyper easy. This actually wasn't being hyper this was the manic side of my bipolar disorder.
63. I'm sure I'll update this later with more things. Probably not.

65. I have the most amazing sister ever... Siobhan. ...I love you Sio.
