About Me

StrawVerri
I always hate filling these things out because what can you post on here that doesnt seem like you are trying to sell yourself to a bunch of strangers?!?!
If you want to get to know me... the best way is to read my blogs....
What else can I say about myself?

I used to have on here that I was a positive person yet as I think about it, I realize more often than not I tend to prepare for the worst because I EXPECT the worse, which would in actuality make me a negative person rather than a positive one. Regardless, I am ALWAYS smiling!!! I am easily amused and I also seem extremely hyper, which would probably be due to the fact that I am a dork.
I have found that people always try to define me and put me in a box, so if I must fit into a box my box is definitely not a cube! Whatever label is placed on me be it Chicana, Republican, Mormon, female, minority and whatever other stereotype label you want to pick there tends to be something in my personality, thoughts, or actions that contradicts it. (I am a walking oxymoron)

Just a little bit more about me
I love chocolate pudding.
I am not a lesbian, but I would turn lesbian for Salma Hayek.
I love Tupperware and probably know more about the stuff than an actual Tupperware representative does.
I love popsicles.
I am on the CARNE ASADA DIET. Hell NO I would never turn vegan.
Experiment 626 Rocks!
I am obsessed with Harry Potter. My kids say he is my boyfriend.
I like bubbles, A LOT. I convinced my kids to get a bubble machine last time we went to Costco because I wanted it!
I like Jackie Chan... LONG FUNNY STORY. My kids say he is my boyfriend as well.
I have glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling above my bed. I want to add more.
I don't do drugs BUT I do drink Red Bull and AMP. Full Throttles are ok and Monsters SUCK (too much sugar).
I like Star Wars, not a geek but yes a fan!
I am not a tree hugger, but I do recycle.
I support the troops.
My toes are usually cold.
I am picky. PICKY PEOPLE are AWESOME!
I leave the cap off the toothpaste.
I leave the kitchen cabinets open.
I sleepwalk.
I have been called a redneck on several occasions.
I don't smoke. Tumor causing, teeth staining, smelly, pukey habit. Enough said.
I like sticky notes.
I love Jepoardy! Some dude in high school used to call me "Jepoardy Girl."
Ozomatli. Need I say more?!
Sharpie Markers are awesome.
SNICKERS should be part of the food pyramid.
I steal the covers.
I finally learned the code on how to make bullets on myspace because the arrows sucked.
I have 4 kids... Don't ask me about them unless you want me to go on and on about how awesome and smart they are!
More than likely I have lost an earring recently.
I love clorox wipes.
I like Aquafina, but sometimes drink Gatorade.
I dont mind doing laundry, but I HATE FOLDING!
$6 guacamole bacon cheeseburgers (from Carl's Jr.) are mmmm... *drool* (hambiggies!!)
Cinnamon ALTOIDS!!!!
If you knew what I was capable of... then you would never piss me off. (just ask my ex~~mwahahahahaha~~)
I like washing pots and pans, but I hate washing utensils.
I like playing chess... even though I suck at it and always get my ass kicked when I do play..
I used to bite my nails. KEYWORDS: "Used to"
IT'S ALL ABOUT ME!! :o
I don't dance (lack of coordination)
I hate mint and chip ice cream.
LEMON HOT Cheetos are good for breakfast!
I am a homebody.
I like building puzzles.
I like playing video games (PS2). My current addiction is Rampage, but my favorite is Dragon Warrior VII.
I always carry my "bag of tricks."
UNO Cards are an essential.
I always carry a Suduko book.
I have a hat and a guitar pick.
I always carry hand sanitizer and handi wipes.
Pocket tissue is a nessecity, not a luxury.
I have a thing about "licking" people.
I always lose my blousing straps.
Sunflowers are my favoritestest flower.
I haven't seen the sunlight in ?? days. (I lost count a while ago.)

U.S. Military (Marines, Army, Air Force, Navy, and Coast Guard)
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
THEODORE ROOSEVELT
Paris Sorbonne,1910
"It is better to die on your feet than to live a lifetime on your knees."
Emiliano Zapata
