You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.(To do this, go to “notes” under tabs (+) on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.)

1. Everything happens to me on holidays it seems like. I was born on Christmas, I had my appendix out on St.Patrick's Day when I was 10, had my ears pierced on Halloween (okay that one was controllable but not planned), and there's another one but I'm not gonna mention that out loud cuz no one wants to hear about it!

2. I want to write and publish a book. I'm currently working on this!

3. I am going to Italy in June but I also want to go to Ireland because that's where my family is from. I am 1/4 Irish!!

4. I am related to president James Monroe.

5. I've had pneumonia 4 times, 3/4 times had to be hospitalized for it.

6. I was in a TON of beauty pagents when I was little (that's when I was thinner!) and wanted to be Miss America one day.

7. I've always wanted to try acting but have always chickened out. I came close in high school when I was going to try out for Grease to play Rizzo but chickened out at the last minute.

8. I want to write and sing my own songs...currently working on this and very close to achieving it!

9. I cannot have my food mixed together or touching. Most of the time I eat on what my family calls "convict" plates (the sectioned plates) when I have more than one different item in a meal, and I'm a picky eater!

10. I used to talk in my sleep when I was little and yelled in my sleep. I also used to fall out of my bed all the time and had to have those rails on the bed...LOL!!!

11. I used to be able to impersonate the character Ms. Swan on Madtv but can't do it really well anymore!

12. In high school I liked Britney Spears back when she wasn't crazy and was clean and learned the dance to "You Drive Me Crazy" video and would do it for my friends cuz I have no life! LOL!

13. In my English class Senior year of high school we had to act out scenes from Macbeth and make up a song about Macbeth. We had to take a song that already existed and make new lyrics that fit with our scene from Macbeth. I made up one to (guess who) Britney Spears' Opps I Did It Again, but was too scared to sing it for my group. The pot head boy in our group made up one to Stairway To Heaven but didn't show up the day we had to do our performance so I was forced to do the Britney Spears one and it was the first time I ever sang in front of people. My crazy teacher made up awards for the performances that we had to vote on and I WON for "Best Song." LOL!!! Oh, did I mention that she taped our performances? So, there's some tape going around somewhere with me on it singing Macbeth's version of Opps I Did It Again!

14. I had a pet rabbit for 7 years when I was little names Speckles...awe!

15. I want to see the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) in person one day.

16. I can't go probably more than 5 minutes without singing or humming.

17. I have a scar on my mouth from where I had to get 5 stitches from where a boy pushed me down on cement stairs when I was little...way to go kid thanks a lot!

18. I've been bitten on the eye and have a scar.

19. I've had 2 concussions in my life. One a friend's brother gave me when he threw the wooden trapeze (sp) bar at my head from his swingset. The other one I gave myself when I was trying to shut my grandma's heavy van door and got my head and hair caught in the door...nice job!

20. I've never been kissed.

21. I was OBSSESSED with NSYNC in high school! LOL!

22. I graduated college Magna Cum Laude with a 3.75 and probably would have had a 4.0 if I could have gotten through College with taking Math courses...dang Math you're my downfall!

23. I want to go back to school to get my Masters (which I think I'm starting in October) and maybe my Specialist after that.

24. I've sprained my right ankle 3 times from falling down stairs all 3 times...apparently I'm not too graceful and surprisingly that's all that got injured! I'm not talking like 5 steps...I'm talking like at least 13 or more steps! When you miss the first step it's all down hill from there...literally!

25. I didn't learn how to swin until I was about 9/10 because I was afraid and still can't really swim that well and I won't go in water that's over about 4ft because I can't touch the bottom.
