what i like about me

Posted in mousie by anonymouseandcheese on July 6, 2008

I was inspired by Haley-O to make a list of some things I like about myself.  You do it next, and tell me about it please.  Here goes:

  1. I have a good fashion sense.  I may not exercise it at all times, but I do know how to buy clothes for my body – both colors and styles – and I do know how to put together complete outfits – clothes with shoes and jewelry.
  2. I’m smart.  I am.  I know I come off like an airhead sometimes a lot of times (even on my own blog), but I’m smart.  I like to say it’s a little combo of book smart and street smart.  When I was in high school, a friend from youth group who went to a different school found out that I had straight A’s (don’t worry, it was just easy high school junk and also don’t worry, I went on to get a B in chemistry), and he was shocked.  That was the first time I realized that the impression I unintentionally give off is not always consistent with reality.  That impression is genuine, it’s just not the whole picture.
  3. I am a good baker.  Anymore, it seems like scratch baking is a dying art, but it really isn’t much harder than buying a mix at the store and it tastes SO. MUCH. BETTER.  Please don’t start doing it if you don’t already though.  I like to impress people with my scratch baking, and if everyone does it, it’s just not that impressive.
  4. I can type really fast.  I chalk it up to chat rooms being cool back when I was in my learning-to-type years in late junior high/early high school.
  5. I’m excellent at Scrabble, Scattegories and Trivia Games.  (See #2 above.)  Seriously.  You want to be on my team.
  6. I’m good at planning things.  I make organized lists, think of details and execute well.  I took a spiritual gifts test once and I scored high in the Administration/Ruling category.  Yes, I rule.

Okay, so I guess I’m pretty great.  Who doesn’t want to be friends with me now?

    I want to be your friend!

    I do scratch baking too. Except for brownies. I haven’t made it to scratch brownies yet. But scratch cake is SO much better than mix cake.
