Hold Me Like Holy Water

I haven't been tagged on this one - but I wanted to do it anyway. Tagging's overrated, as far as I'm concerned (except for previous post...then it's wonderful!).

My Confessions...

I confess that I used to have a celebrity crush on Heath Ledger, especially as seen in "10 Things I Hate About You." (I guess the fact that I have often been compared to Katarina Stratford plays a part in that...see below for more on that one though) It has since faded, and completely died with the release of this.

I confess that I often turn on Frank Sinatra music and waltz by myself around my bedroom.

I confess that I took illegal pictures of the Sistine Chapel (I didn't use my flash!), even as the guy yelled "No Foto!" at me.

I confess that I never really learned treble clef/left hand piano. I only know chords.

I confess that I don't understand text messaging in the least. If you've got something to say, call me. Why waste the time to type out like, 3 words?

I confess that I have phone anxiety and do not like to talk over the phone with strangers. I avoid it at all costs. I have remedied this somewhat by working at the bookstore, as I have to call customers when their orders are in. However, I still get nervous each time.

I confess that I have a tendency to exaggerate by adding one to everything. If I have 2 apples, I will say I have 3. If I went to bed at 1am, I will say it was 2am. I do not know why.

I confess that I got a tattoo of a cherub on my ankle the day I turned 18.

I confess that I was, at one point, anti-EWTN. I thought it was boring, stupid, and for weeeirdos. Now I can't get enough.

I confess that at one point I wanted to be a Franciscan. This was because my encounters with the Dominicans in the area I grew up with was less than inspiring. We'll leave it at that.

I confess that my mood strongly depends on how my hair looks.

I confess that I love love love olive oil. I can't get enough.

I confess that I Google EVERYTHING. I am an incessantly Googling someone/thing.

I confess that I pride myself in being criticized for being too conservative (especially in That Class).

I confess that I stole a Jubilee 2000 banner from the chapel just before it was destroyed. It now hangs in my bedroom.

I confess that I was once a quite militant feminist. This is the biggest reason I cannot stand them. I know, from the inside, that their views are unfounded, ridiculous and just plain wrong.

I confess that I have a ridiculous obsession with other languages/cultures.

I confess that I will often do things for the free t-shirt. This includes helping freshmen move in at the beginning of the school year.

I confess that I call Black and White "team colors."

I confess that I am studying to be a teacher, yet have a ridiculous aversion to going to class and am often tempted to skip without feeling the slightest amount of guilt. It doesn't mean I don't love learning. I'd go to class - if that was what happened there!

That's all I've got for you.

Caritas et veritas.
