I randomly have mental breakdowns and start sobbing for no reason.
I swear...a lot. I blame my old supervisor at work for it.
When I'm emo or feeling down, I listen to slow depressing music instead of happy, upbeat music.
I hate paying full price for clothes; I only love thrift stores/ consignment shops.
I love Mexican food.
I like long hugs (as they're not from creepy people).
I always wear socks. I only wear sandals if it's ~80* or so outside. Even in summer, I HAVE to wear socks to bed.
Because of this, my feet are very soft.
I like the smell of onions.
I don't like cucumbers.
I hate big dogs; I only like little dogs. (If I had to choose, otherwise I just don't like dogs in general)
I don't like horseback riding. At all. It hurts me a lot!
I do not wear regular flip flops ever. I have Chacos, and they are the best sandals EVER.
I don't like hiking.
I love watching the sunset.
I'm afraid of storms.
I'm obsessed with lyrics, tattoos, and dreadlocks.
I sleep with pillows, blankets, books, and clothes on the other side of me so it doesn't feel so lonely and empty.

Getting back to life
So for those of you who don't have a Twitter/ don't follow me on it, I spent most of Friday in the ER.
Now, if you know me- you know I HATE going to the hospital/ doctor. But I had been having severe abdominal pain for 14+ hours, and when I was looking into it, everything said that was cause for going to the ER. So after hours of calling my friend Brian, I was off to urgent care/ ER in LaCrosse... They did some x-rays and blood tests, only to find everything was "normal".
I called shenanigans. I'm clearly NOT normal, as the pain is still here... Luckily it's improved since then. But it is still here. I'm supposed to have been eating rice, apples, bananas, and toast only. But I fail and have no self control... So that hasn't been happening. BUT from this day forth, I AM going to have a vegan diet. Because dairy is one thing my body cannot digest, among other things. Unfortunately, chronic digestive issues run in my family so I think I'll have to be seeing a gastrointestinal specialist in the near future to figure out what the hell is wrong with my body.
In the mean time, I must get back to enjoying life, as "normal" as it can be. What is normal anyway? Who knows. I'm attempting to get back on track and focus on school...despite the strong senioritis I have :P
The weather is getting better, so that's cool. Most people call it "spring". I call it "track weather" ;) Thanks to my papa and having track be a part of our lives since I was a wee tot. Hehe.
How is everyone else's lives? I'm sure I'll update with more detail soon. For now, I will leave you with some random pinterest photos, and a couple happy songs I've been listening to on repeat lately. :)
These make me dance :)
(Dad this would be great for some of your classes!!)

Love this woman and what she preaches.
This is great.
Mmhmm.

25 Facts :)
1. I hate being barefoot. I love wearing socks, even in summer.
2. I wore contacts for a couple years in high school, only because I wanted to wear sunglasses. But I gave up on them because I HATE the feeling of them. My eyes got too dry and painful all the time. So now I only wear glasses, and I have prescription sunglasses.
3. I always wear earrings unless I'm showering or sleeping. I feel naked without them.
4. I hate the sound and feeling of two dry things rubbing against each other. For example, at work the other day my coworker rubbed a cleaning scrubby against a cardboard box; I cringed and freaked out.
5. I hate all birds except eagles. And I mean REALLY hate. Ever since Spain and the pigeons that basically tried to kill me everyday there, I can't stand them.
6. I am deathly afraid of moths. I love butterflies, but moths are basically the devil.
7. I have a very strict bedtime routine: brush my teeth, put my mouth guard in (I have TMJ), I need to have a full glass of water, chapstick, and lotion by my bed; check my alarm at least three times, check to see if the door is locked at least twice, and can only shut off the light if I have my phone light on at the same time.
8. I am really afraid of the dark.
9. I don't like cucumbers. In anything.
10. I love learning about Hispanic culture, it absolutely fascinates me. Well, pretty much learning about any other culture is exciting to me.
11. I think dreadlocks are amazing, and I hope to have some someday when my hair is long enough.
12. If/ when there is a species that eventually kills off humans, I think I will be reincarnated as that species. Even though humans are capable of doing a lot, I don't think we are "all powerful" and I think the earth will be fine without us. It sounds dark and mean, but it's just how I feel.
13. I've enjoyed Michael Jackson's music since I was little girl. Thanks, Dad!
14. I was fluent in Spanish after studying abroad there for a semester, but as soon as I came back I lost it. I want to eventually become fluent in it again. That and American Sign Language too.
15. I have never just drank a glass of milk by choice. I like milk in recipes, cereal, and coffee. That's it.
16. With that, I only have almond milk. I'm pretty much lactose intolerant so I rarely consume dairy.
17. I don't wear make up. I haven't worn it since 10th grade, except for the handful of times my friends basically forced me to wear it ;)
18. I think red hair is so pretty.
19. I am excited to give birth. I don't like little kids (unless they're my own), but I want to experience being pregnant and [hopefully] giving birth at home in a tub, with a midwife, and no drugs. (DISCLAIMER: I will not be doing this until I'm at least 30. ;]) And I'm excited to breastfeed.
20. Mexico and Nepal are my two ultimate dream places to go to someday.
21. I have two younger sisters and they are my life. We all look the same, but we're all pretty different when it comes to personalities. But they have been my best friends since we were younger, even though I told them random lies all the time and they believed me. (For example, I told Emilie that if you pause a movie for too long the tv would blow up. Oops :] Haha)
22. If I had to identify myself as part of a religion, Hinduism and Buddhism would be it. I like them because they're more of lifestyles guidelines than forceful organized religions.
23. I love shopping at thrift stores and garage sales. It's really hard for me to buy clothes brand new now.
24. I constantly get holes in the big toe part of my socks and shoes. I don't know why, but it's been happening for years. I think it happens to my grandpa too. Weird?
25. I greatly dislike gender stereotypes. (i.e. girls have to wear pink; boys have to play with trucks, not dolls; only moms can take care of the baby, etc.) Our society forms them right from when a person is born. It sucks. I want to try and eliminate those stereotypes from my kids' lives right from the get-go!
