Mood:  chatty

Random things you might wonder or never thought to ask...

•My name is Keiome which is Japanese for "Seed of clear and holy beauty" and my last name (currently) is Meadows.  So it's like the seed of clear and holy beautiful grass and flowers.

•My middle name is Anita, which is my mother's first name.  Her middle name is Frances; which I love and she is not too fond of.  Her best friend since the 7th grade's middle name is Anita too.  Actually she was Jackie Anita Green and my mom was Anita Green, that probably led to them being friends.  And then when Jackie had her daughter, she gave her the same middle name.  On the rare occasions we are all together, someone always brings that up.

•If the only job I could ever do was organize and alphabetize I would consider it my Heaven on earth

•I am so sensitive. It doesn't take much to make me cry. I was never really teased (to my face) about being big, but i was teased all the way through my senior year of high school for being a "cry baby"

•I have wanted to be a writer since the 2nd grade in Mrs. Wynn's class. I wrote a paper about my dog eating my favorite Cabbage Patch doll. I apparently translated my emotions well because the next morning she told me she went around to all of the teacher's and showed off my paper. It inspired me then, and I'm in school now to get closer to my dream.

•I was accused of plagerism in the 7th grade by my language arts teacher (what's her name, the blonde lady from the Green Gators). I did a book report on The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton and she thought i copied it straight from the back of the book. But what she didn't know is that I was OBSESSED with the movie ever since I saw it on Dinner & A Movie, and then read the book and then listened to the book on tap. My name was cleared the same day.

•I feel like I'm the only person in the world who hasn't been to Disneyworld.

•I almost joined the Airforce, I just felt like it was the right thing to do.

•Most of my friends that I have now, I've had since elementary school. I have only 4 friends that I didn't attend school with (elementary, middle, and/or high school)

•I think Devon Sawa and Christina Ricci were the cutest couple in the early 90's (Casper and Now & Then) and I'm still a bit obsessed.

•I hate feet!!!! I just hate them, ALL of them. I can't have people touch mine, I can't touch any that don't belong to me. It's just... ugh!!!!

•Computers and the whole world of computers have no appeal to me whatsover. I hate them. Okay, I don't hate them, but I don't like them as much as my generation does. But I do enjoy how easy it is to connect to things online. And my fiance is all about computers and technology.

•My musical taste is very ecclectic, but it wasn't always that way. I used to listen to rap and R&B only. Then one day when I was like 9 or something I was in the car with my mom and i got yelled at for knowing the words to "Gin and Juice." So I stopped listening to anything that wasn't soft rock. By the time I hit high school, I started watching MTV and got into everything.

•I love Rainbows. I don't care what anyone has to say, I love the colors. it was my favorite color in elementary school. : )

•The movie Pay It Forward changed my life. It IS a way of lfe for me.

•I will put it in my funeral plans that I must be buried in T-shirt and jeans. Preferably a tee with something funny written on it.

•I bought a guinea pig because i couldn't get a puppy just yet. Then two months later she gave birth to 3 guinea babies. 4 for the price of 1.... yay...

•I think we secretly all want to be a rock star

•New shower curtian smell is my favorite smell

•My security blanket is anything Disney related... or musicals. I sleep better, I'm happier, and just more comfortable.  To steal a quote from my friend Casey's facebook page:

"When and if I ever have children, they'll probably like me in their first years because I love watching Disney movies. Probably not so much when they turn teenagers and they have to watch Pocahontas for the thousandth time."

•I can't remember a time where I wasn't referred to as chipper, perky, or any other word that means the same thing. At work I am sometimes known as Care Bear and Miss Sunshine. But if the world only knew...

•I love History. My current interests is Biblical History. I just find it facisinating. Before that it was Poahontas. I love museums and historical sites too.

•I am extremely friendly, but I don't make friends that easily.

•I am so empathetic that a lot of movies and music, and even some awesome television shows, stir me up and leave a lingering impression on me for most of the night.
