40 things about ME!!!

GUESS WHAT i'm 40 today!!!!
(So this was written for my 40th Birthday about a week ahead and it was planned to be posted on my 40th birthday...my brother wasn't even sick when I wrote this buuuuuut as you all know, things very quickly changed!!! So everything that is written is written the same way I wrote it before my brother's deaths so I actually can't even remember everything I wrote but I wanted to go ahead and post it now...John would want me to move forward and keep celebrating life!!!)
.
Soooooooo 40 things about ME!!!
.
1. What's my favorite thing about myself?
My personality!!!
I really, truly, just LOVE, love, LOOOOOVE, being ME!!!

2. What's my least favorite thing about myself? Ummmm... Idk...maybe being scatter-brained! Getting lost in my imagination...like crying over a non existent death...lol...over thinking stuff!!! 
3. What's my favorite physical feature? My eyes or smile or my hair- Ok pick one, MY EYES! 
4. What's my least favorite physical feature? Probably my teeth
5. What stresses me out the most? People's emotions...I'm a very happy-fun-loving-easy-going kind of person. But I'm also a pretty empathetic person so I tend to take on what others are feeling- If someone has bad self-esteem I want to change that because it bothers me so much that they would feel bad about themselves or like if someone is sad or depressed or in a bad mood it makes my emotions all uh emotional...if that makes sense!!! LOL Buuuuut only if it's someone that I'm really close too!!! Otherwise I really don't get stressed to much...kinda weird that people's stress, stresses me! LOL  
6. Am I introvert or extrovert? I am ambiviant! That means I'm both! I love people and am outgoing, buuuut I also enjoy being by myself, I never really get lonely and actually need to get away and just be with me sometimes too. I mean, that's how writers are...we kinda got be in our own little world...Hee, hee!!!
7. What's my least favorite school subject? Math!!!
8. What's my biggest weakness? SHOPPING...If you consider that a BAD THING...otherwise...it could be a STRENGTH!!! ;))))

10. How do I show someone that I love them? Hmmm either through gifts or spending time with them! No probably by spending time! Quality time! IF I want to hang out with you instead of myself, I probably love you!!! Hee, hee!!!!
11. Is it a bigger deal for me to say I love you or for me to say I miss you? I Miss you!!! you see, I'm a very loving person, and I could just about tell anyone that I love them, and truly mean it...I DO!!! Buuuuuut I don't like to say anything that's NOT true, like fake sayings, sooooooo to say I miss you to someone, I mean, I could love you buuuuuuut, that doesn't mean I actually mind being away from you, buuuuut IF I miss you, well, that means I ACTUALLY MISS being with you...make sense??? Buuuuuut I can't just go around continuously telling everyone male or female that I love them AHAHAHA!!! It's not always appropriate to say I love you, yet, I can't say the more acceptable thing UNLESS I actually feel it...otherwise I'd be lying!!! LOL

40. Do I believe in interracial Marriage??? NO!!! You guys didn't think I would say that did you??? Weeeeeeellll the truth is that RACE isn't actually real!!! It's a man-made thing that stems from Darwin's theory of evolution. The theory of evolution created race, believing that humans developed from monkeys and the whiter a human was, THE MORE DEVELOPED AND FURTHER THEY WERE FROM BEING A MONKEY!!! Yep, it's pretty messed up thinking!!! Evolution created race and racism. Therefore, as a one-God-Apostolic-Christian, I DO NOT BELIEVE IN INTERACIAL MARRIAGE because there's actually only ONE RACE!!! The human race!!! There is inter-cultural marriage, buuuuut NOT interracial!!! We're all just different shades of brown!!! And before you say something about me always talking about being Italian, that is MY ETHNICITY AND CULTURE AND TRIBE ...buuuuut it's not a race...Some of us have more brown than others BUUUUUUT we're all made from the same thing…DIRT!!! For my 40th birthday gift- READ ONE BLOOD!!!
