things i'm afraid to tell you

I'm not sure where this begin... from what I can tell Jess started the motion then Ez, Meg, Liz and probably a bunch of other fabulous bloggers decided to give it a shot, too. I think it's a great exercise to get real with the blog-o-sphere. I think sometimes people can come off fake or "too perfect" on the web, which I get, we all like to keep things positive! But it's nice sometimes to see a human side of people... so here I go:
Sometimes I spend $7 on fro yo. 

I don't think I'm snobby when it comes to much, but in terms of food and beer, I'm a huge priss. I believe every meal should be the best meal ever and I won't go near a crappy beer. Extreme? Definitely.

I get self-conscious sometimes which is why I don't feature many photos of myself on my blog.

I often judge people not interested in traveling. I guess it's just such a huge part of my life that it baffles me when others don't have the desire to see the rest of the world.

I'm really sensitive. Probably overly sensitive.

I am terrible with money. Really terrible. And I really like buying things for other people and of course myself too. However I won't go into detail for fear of my parents reading this and freaking out.

I think about falling in love and my future husband [whoever he is]... a lot. Too much. The idea of sharing my life with someone is just the most exciting and beautiful thought to me. [This actually sounds really pathetic and weird now that I'm typing it out... but this is all about honesty, right?]

I watch The Bachelor and The Bachelorette... I know, I know, judge away. [But how can you not? It's amazing these people think they're gonna fall in love when 100% of the relationships have not worked. Too comical.]

I'm really not sure if I can ever be a parent and it makes me feel like a bad person.

I hate my hands. I feel like they're too big for a girl.

I do not like Colbie Caillat's music. At all. Like I physically cringe and freak out if I hear one of her songs [sorry Colbie; sorry fans].


{Thanks for loving me anyways! HAPPY FRIDAY!}

Ok, I have to say, we have A LOT in common!!! I agree with you about food & beer (and in my case, good wine as well). Also, about Colbie Calbot. I just don't get her! Also, I watch The Bachelor/Bachelorette and it's great entertainment. Totally entertaining in every way!!! I could go on and on about your list, I'm right there with you girl! :) Love this post!

i loved this post! i loved that you felt that you could share it with your readers and i loved your honesty :)
a) from the looks of things, you are a beautiful girl - so i hope you never feel self-conscious about making an appearance because i think i speak for a lot of people when i say that we would welcome and even encourage it!

b) thinking about your future husband isn't pathetic at all. like you, i think loving someone (especially forever) is a beautiful thing. i believe God has ONE person set aside for you; and that you'll find him someday is a beautiful thing to think about.

Great post.. I love that bloggers have started this series. I used to be bad with money too until I married a CPA/Financial planner. I have no choice now but to be better with it! Which is good and bad... Good for retirement, bad for now b/c I can't spend as much! Ha. Love your blog!

xoxo,

I meant to ask you if that's your dog in the picture? We have a Bernese Mountain Dog! :)

Allie said...

NO WAY! i am so jealous. its not my dog... he sadly belongs to a friend... however as soon as i dont work 10 hours a day and live in an apt that allows pups, you better believe the bernese mountain dog is my top pick for a pup!! soo precious and sweet.

Pretty sure if we hung out, we'd have the lady version of a bromance. Can I tell you how refreshing it is to stumble upon another single blogger (or at least I think you are based on your comment about your future hubby)? I was starting to think you had to be married or in a real serious relationship to be included in the blogger world. Anyway, I'm a San Diego girl too and I'm loving all of the fab food finds you've mentioned! Looking forward to reading more!
