8 things tag from the broom, in no particular order
1. I am proud of who I am
The truth is I am an insufferable snob when it comes to me. I've always known I was fantastic but somehow the whole pride coming before fall thing thing was drilled in to me and I hid beneath self-effacing humour and extreme fake humility for most of my life. Somedays I feel like rubbish but even on those days, I know I am slumming. There are people I know who genuinely think I have an insecurity complex. Which makes me feel all bizzarre as if maybe there is a upside down twin of mine out there who is woefully insecure. For, on most days, in my head, i really, and truly do believe i am prettier/ smarter and /with more vibrant personality that most people I meet.
And the only reason I don't completely act out like the obnoxious snob that i am is because of lessons drilled of god. For, even now, admitting that i am proud being makes me want to whisper a 'not really' to God before he decides to vanquish pride by smiting with irregular periods that appear on white skirt on day of work presentation (for that really is the ultimate fall, thanks god).
2. of unbloggable mistakes
There are so many mis steps I have taken in life, most of which are my own fault and/or result of extreme laziness and inability to confront and take decisions about life on my own. But the missteps taken have taught and molded me much more than the right ones
3. the boy
Just because he is the boy and he is truly the most exasperatingly loving person in the world. Someone who is truly my v.own but not. It's just so surreal to have some one in your life who you can love and hate, sometimes, always or even at the same time, who can be close one minute and far the next and who you can be uncompromisingly yourself with all-the-time, well atleast till he tells you to give him a break.
4. My BFFs and FFs - the M.L, the J.T. the B.T., the J.A, the RJD, the EA, and so many more.
they made and make me me.
5. my sister the Annmol - for she teaches me every day what courage and confidence and personality really is. She is my role model in so many ways
6. the Sammon - for he is the funniest, cleverest, smartest brother in the whole wide world and I can't wait for them to come be with me as soon as possible
7. The father - always and forever, the father - the things he does/has done/achieved are things i can only hope to reach
8. The Mother - if I could be half as good a mother as she is, i will be a freaking awesome mom
Frack - this turned into such a sentimental mush of a post and i wanted it to be a slightly funny, slightly heartwarming one.
Some days, I worry so much that i am losing my sense of humour.
30in2005 - that's what I'll angst about after I marry the boy - about if i am losing my sense of humour?
