1. I am completely obsessed with game shows. My favorites are Match Game, Let's Make a Deal and the Price is Right when Bob Barker was the host. Older game shows are much better, the best being from the 70's. The hosts were classy and dashing, the contestants weren't there to be on TV, and they were written better.
2. I am a practicing Christian, currently being confirmed (probably would not have guessed, right? :). I see confirmation as becoming a member of Christianity. I think there is much to gain from most religions, and it is easiest for me to gain from Christianity at this point in my life.
3. I love shopping at vintage stores! While they are occasionally rumored to house fleas, they make one's wardrobe quite unique for much less the buck from your wallet. I always check for high wasted items and vests.
4. While most of the time I consider myself too lazy to cook, I love to cook on occasion. I think it is important to nourish the body, and indulge every so often. I recently found a recipe on this website http://www.tastespotting.com/ that houses some of the most delicious recipes I have ever seen. The one I currently want to try is for easy ice cream. Apparently if you blend frozen bananas, it makes a delicious, creamy ice cream! The best ones to use are browning bananas, and you can add in honey and peanut butter. Sounds delicious!

5. I am a movie buff. I love cult classics and quirky comedies. Some of my favorites are Little Miss Sunshine, the Royal Tenenbaums, Away We Go, Napoleon Dynamite, Slumdog Millionare, and basically countless others.
6. I am terrified by preparing for the future. College is so daunting. It's not so much picking a college, but getting into it. And then there's the tremendous cost and SAT's. It's pretty much horrible. Sometimes I feel like I can tackle it and look up scholarships, but most of the time I can't even think about it all.
7. I have a very strange sense of music. While most people become very attached to a few artists and learn everything about them, I just become attached to songs. I do like some artists a lot, but mostly I just listen to a handful of their songs a great number of times. I like the Velvet Underground, Crystal Castles, Bob Marley, Justice, and a vast number of other songs.
Haha, this image ties in both 4 and 7 very well.
8. I like inspirational quotes, mostly from Buddha, Ghandi, or the Tao Te Jing. I feel like their messages are amazing ones that we can all continue to benefit from today.
9. Eating out is probably one of my favorite things to do. Some of my favorite restaurants are Jason's Deli, the Cheesecake Factory, Cocoa's Cafe, Kat's Deli, and many others. I hope to work at Chili's when I get my license because I know the menu so well.
10. I like to read the newspaper. My favorites are the Wall Street Journal and the Economist. Next year I am going to be a co-editor of the news section for my high school's paper.
So I know this post was completely random and not like anything else I've posted. I'll try to put up more of that normal writing. But I hope you enjoyed it.
