So I found this list of 30 things that should help expose more of my personality and I thought I'd try it. Check out the full list here.

The first thing on the list is 20 random facts about me. :) So here I go :)
1) When I was a kid I was a witch for Halloween around 6 times. I don't know why, but I loved being a witch. (no pun intended)
2) I'm still friends with my first crush. I still have a crush on him. Shhhhh.
3) I am usually the one to apologize and try to mend a friendship. Friendships are so important to me and I dont like to walk away from people. I'd rather apologize than save face.
4) I will randomly text people I love and tell them why and how much I love them. I've had friends worried I was suicidal because of it. I guess it's not a common practice unless you're saying goodbye. But I want people to know how great they are, and how much I love them.
5) I am currently going through some of the hardest things I've ever experienced.
6) I'd love to write a book, preferably an autobiography, but I have no idea where to begin or where to focus my subject on. There is so much I could talk about.
7) In first or second grade I had to write a book report on Abe Lincoln and thought he was such an amazing man that I wanted to marry him. I was very sad when I found out he was dead and that was never going to happen.
8) I love nightgowns.
9) When I was a kid and actors died in movies, I thought they really died. I partially wanted to become an actress because I wanted to learn the art of resurrection.
10) I also believed that all of our lives were story books and when we were awake was when our book were being read. I still think that's a cool idea.
11) I spent a lot of time alone in high school. It's weird to think about now that I have so much trouble being alone for too long.
12) The idea of being a red neck is very appealing to me. Not the missing teeth, weird part, but the muddin, hunting, riding horses and drinkin beer part. I dont know, they seem to have more fun.
13) In my opinion, one of my best attributes is my ability to overcome tough situations. I wish I would have just had this skill, instead of learning it, but I'm thankful for it none the less.
14) I have no idea where my impressive ability with children of all ages (legit all ages) came from.
15) One of my favorite memories from high school, comes in the form of an old man I use to make cookies for and hang out with after school everyday. He would tell me about his life and I would listen. I miss him.
16) When my friend Genevieve came to visit when we were 20 years old she said to me , "you havent changed a bit. You're just as boy crazy as you were the first day I met you" That made me look at my entire life from a whole new perspective and make some serious changes. Although I still really like men, and admire them greatly (They're just great) I have a lot more respect and love for myself. Standards, yo.
18) I've changed the way I spell my name twice. Originally it was Nicki, and then in high school, on a quest for my identity I changed it to Nikki, and then when I moved to Arizona I seized the opportunity to go back to Nicki; however, it became so confusing that I just stopped caring how people spelled my name. Except Nicolette, there is no "h" in Nicolette. That is important.
19) In my early 20's I dated a man that I was completely crazy about. He lived 2 or 3 hours away (I cant remember) and the last time I saw him I didnt want to let go. He asked me why and I said, " I feel like I'm never gonna see you again". I never saw him again. I think about that moment a lot.
20) I love my name. My full name. I think it's perfect and although I have every intention of taking my "hypothetical" husbands name, I definitely wish I could marry someone with my last name that I had no relation to whatsoever just so I could keep my name intact. Is that crazy? I dont care.
So there you have it... 20 random facts about me. I hope you enjoyed it. I hope it gives you a bit of insight into who I am.
