50 Things about myself

So I saw this on Sara and Dinah's blogs and decided to try it...mainly just to see if I could think of 50 things to say about myself. Apparently when I am done, I am supposed to tag other people to do the same. So here goes.

1) I really hate Spanish literature...yet have a Masters degree in that area.
2) I would rather sit at home all day and watch tv instead of going to work.
3) I could watch the movie "Elf" over and over and never get tired of it.
4) I still haven't unpacked my clothes from boxes yet...a week after moving in.
5) I am a reality TV junkie. Seriously. Some favorites: Project Runway, Top Chef, Shear Genius, The Bachelor, etc.
6) I have never seen any of the original Star Wars, Indiana Jones, or Godfather movies....and have no desire to.
7) I have absolutely no idea what I want when it comes to planning my wedding.
8) I have a weakness for movies that star Hugh Grant.
9) My dream job: travel around the world like Samantha Brown (Passport to Europe girl) and find fun things to do in foreign countries/cities.
10) I like to open other peoples' presents. (Just ask anyone in my family)
11) I have a horrible temper, which I am trying desperately to fix.
12) I cannot stand olives, raw onions, sweet potatoes or mayonnaise.
13) I'm really bad at basketball (in fact, I was cut from the team in the 9th grade...I was probably one of the oldest girls trying out)
14) I'm not that athletic...I realized that I sort of faked my way through highschool.
15) I want to learn Italian and Portuguese in the next few years.
16) I love having projects to do, but rarely ever finish them.
17) I am quite possibly one of the messiest people that I know.
18) I get bored very easily. I think I have developed a severe case of ADD.
19) My first job was at the movie theater....vest, bow tie and all.
20) I have no sense of style whatsoever. I would rather wear blue jeans and tshirts any day over other kinds of clothes.
21) I will readily admit that I Loooooove Lord of the Rings.
22) I hate to-do lists and never get everything accomplished that I write down.
23) I hate living in warm/hot areas...which is ironic due to the fact that I have lived in the South all my life.
24) I have an unnatural fear of cockroaches and lizards.
25) I always intend to eat leftovers, but actually never do.
26) I'm not a touchy-feely person. I used to be, but somewhere down the line, that disappeared.
27) I have had several nicknames through the years: "Hays" "Hayles" "Hayleykins" "Hale-bop" "Hayley-Bailey" and "Darla."
28) Although I sing in public a lot, I have a huge case of stagefright, which I believe comes from horrible incident at the Landmark talent show when I was six and performing a song from "Oliver."
29) I have no idea how to cook.
30) I am not very disciplined and am extremely unorganized (making it very interesting that I am teacher).
31) I want an international family like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
32) I sometimes wish I had gone into music as a profession.
33) I can't ride rollercoasters that just go up and down. It has to have flips and twists in order for me to get on.
34) I am completely apathetic towards all things political.
35) I am terrified of being a wife and mother. I'm very afraid that I won't be good at either.
36) I am extremely ticklish and will get violent if someone tries to test this fact.
37) I am not very good at sitting down and reading the Bible.
38) I get ridiculously happy when I am singing at the top of my lungs and dancing in the car.
39) I have tried to keep a journal, but now have about 6 different journals with about 3-4 entries in each.
40) I will be old and gray and still be laughing at people falling. There is nothing funnier to me.
41) The whole idea of wearing a huge wedding dress and having all eyes on me makes me feel a little nauseated.
42) I almost can't stand the wait for the new Harry Potter book.
43) My dream is to live in Europe. (Spain to be exact)
44) I cry. Alot.
45) I get really scared when driving over bridges. I feel as if I am going to go flying over the edge and crash into the water.
46) I have never used my checkbook register...not once in the 10+ years of having a checking account.
47) I have the best family in the world.
48) I am blessed to have met a wonderful man who loves me and finds joy in taking care of me.
49) I couldn't be happier than when I am surrounded by the people that I care about.
50) I am tired of this little game.

So now I tag Ashley, Jon, and Mitch.
