25 Random Things

Hi gang, 
Amelia gave us a super idea, so I'm going to take the liberty of posting 25 random facts about each of us that you really don't want to know anyways:
Facts about EmEm:
1. I have a 2nd degree black belt in karate... yeah, I'm kind of a big deal
2. If you call me up in 6 years and ask what I'm doing, I'm going to be an emergency flight nurse working for CALSTAR
3. I am the ultimate facebook stalker... watch out, kids
4. I need to maintain a 4.0 for at least the next 3 semesters
5. Sometimes I miss middle school.
6. I was born 2 weeks late with a broken collarbone, which leads me to #7...
7. I was the fattest baby you'll ever see.
8. I got my earring ripped out while surfing two summers ago, and the second I got back in the water I couldn't feel any pain. I truly believe that the ocean is healing, and there is no where else I'd rather be than in the water. 
9. I have ocd, and it bothers me when people say they have ocd just because they're organized or they don't like germs. That's not it at all.
10. I love taking naps.
11. I'm a Certified Nursing Assistant
12. I worked for a week as a Student Nursing Assistant on the Alzheimer's/Dementia Unit of a nursing home. It was the single most humbling and life changing experience of my life.
13. I went to Chile and Argentina last summer with my bff KK. 
14. I'm a pack rat. I save everything. 
15. My role model is my momma. 
16. My favorite number is 31 and my favorite color is green.
17. I'm a Twins fan!
18. My brother and sister mean everything to me and I'd do anything for them.
19. My dreams are almost ALWAYS vivid, and I can usually remember them...
20. ...Last night I dreamt that I was camping with my family and there was a forest fire, so we had to swim to the middle of the lake until the helicopters could put it out... but it turned out that the fire could travel through the water, but when it touched you it didn't hurt so bad after all. We finally found a clear spot in the lake and stayed there until the fire was put out.
21. When I don't wake up on time my little brother comes into my room and puts ice cubes down the back of my shirt :(
22. It bothers me when people mix up your/you're, there/their/they're and to/too

15. My least favorite smell is burning rubber
16. One Thanksgiving when I was eight, I got the pleasure of sitting by my grandpa who told me a story about how he witnessed a man fall out of a building from so many stories that his spine went through his brain. Now I think about that story at least once every Thanksgiving. Works up an appetite.
17. I have to finish chewing my food on the left side of my mouth before I can swallow it. twss?
18. I used to really want braces in fourth grade because I thought it would make me look cool. I never got them.
19. I wish I were bilingual
20. I'm not a huge fan of any other kind of chocolate except dark.
21. I tell everyone I meet but in case I don't know you; without my contacts or glasses I'd be legally blind

So anyways, there you have it. I know... we're fascinating. We actually just baby-sat my old neighbors Theo and Raina tonight so that was fun. Yesterday was Ellen's 19th birthday so we went to Mystic Lake to play cosmic bingo which was really fun! But right now I am sexhausted so I'm gonna get to bed... actually I probably won't go to bed for another few hours but I'm too tired to keep writing this. I'll update you all more later! Ciao.
Besos, EmEm
