100!!!!!!

So, this is my hundredth post since April of 2010. Almost a year ago, I started this thing that I thought was going to be a nutty misadventure. I mean, I'd already attempted a blog before and it failed epically. But I've been pretty good about posting on this thing, so this post will be all about 100. It will literally just be 100 things that have happened to me, about me, or thoughts by me. And they will be happy. I promise. Here we go.

1. I'm moved by my own writing--something about that is weird.

2. Movies and books can create bonds, but music is the universal thing that bond all people.

3. Ben Rector is the best semi-undiscovered artist out there.

4. Senior year really is as great as people say.

21. Walks down memory lane are fun. Most of the time.

22. I have a secret pyromaniac hidden inside of me. Shhhhh!

25. My room is pink but I wish it were brown.

26. A&M is not a school you would probably pick to go to if you wanted to study English. However, that's exactly what I'm doing.

27. Baseball>football. Sorry, Cowboys; the Rangers have my heart.

28. Jerry Jones, you built a spaceship in Arlington. It's ugly.

29. Also, Jerry Jones? You're not from Texas. You're from Arkansas. So stop putting on that awful accent and pretending that you are the essence of Texas.

30. I despise LSU. And Arkansas. And pretty much everyone else in the SEC.

31. Mac>PC

32. If your town doesn't have a Dairy Queen within 20 miles, you shouldn't be on a map in Texas. Though founded in Illinois, DQ is a Texas staple.

34. I really want a t-shirt from Henrietta, Texas that says "Henrietta Football" or something on it. That's where my grandmother is from and I'm kind of obsessed with it. And my grandmother still has family that lives there and I might get it. SCORE.

76. I am incapable of successfully curling my hair.

77. I'm wearing a Josh Hamilton shirt right now.

83. I've never been in love, but I've sort of had my heart broken.

97. I love weddings. They're just so awesome.
