#21 - 30 Things My Future Husband Should Know About Me

#21 - 30 Things My Future Husband Should Know About Me

#21: February 7, 2013: Words
As a writer, words mean more to me than anything else. If you tell me something I believe it until you give me solid reason not to, and even then I still hold on sometimes. So please please please Don't ever lie to me intentionally, lies always hurt me more than the truth - and I'm tired of getting hurt by lies, it's happened far too often.

#22: February 9, 2013: Bacon (and ketchup)
I love bacon and I love ketchup. I try to use them in lots of things - Macaroni and cheese with bacon, with ketchup on top, eggs and bacon with ketchup. I love them - that's all.

#23: February 11, 2013: Go Yankees!
Yes, I am a Yankees fan. My Grandma and Grandpa Cobb raised me that way. I will always despise the Red Sox, and I laugh at them a lot lately. With this said, I despise A-Rod and will never like him no matter how many homeruns he hits for the Yankees. And I can, and do, root for other teams and some other players.

#24: February 14, 2013: Valentine's Day!
My view on Valentine's Day:
I don't care so much about huge plans just for Valentine's Day IF you show me how much you love me all year round (which you should do anyways) and I get random romantic moments all year. But this is definitely conditional on that if. And this doesn't mean that you can forget it all together - I still love hearing "Happy Valentine's Day."
This also doesn't mean that I won't give you anything. If you look back to #7, you will see that I love giving presents. :) So you will get something from me, guaranteed.
Addition:
My Grandpa Cobb will always be my favorite Valentine. You can come close to him, but I'm afraid no one will ever equal him. He was just simply the best.

#25: February 15, 2013: Cuddling
I love to cuddle. Especially in the cold winter. To me, there's nothing better than cuddling under a blanket, watching a movie. But I also understand that most men don't like to cuddle in the heat - I don't either, sometimes. So you give me cold weather cuddle and I'll give you hot weather.

#26: February 17, 2013: Why I'm Proud to be a Penn Stater
It's not the football team that makes me proud to be a PSU Alum. There are some years when they really suck. But it's their perseverance that makes me proud - they always survive and bounce back. It's definitely not the basketball team - they always suck. It's the fact that they never give up that makes me proud. In fact, it's not really athletics at all. It's the heart and soul that Penn Staters have. It's the fact that people like Joe Paterno donate the majority of their lives to help other people  without wanting anything in return. (To me it is great to do things without expecting something in return, but even greater when you don't want anything - there's a difference to me.) It's the fighting spirit of the Nittany Lions - no matter what people say they keep on fighting and are always proud to be a Penn Stater. It's events like THON that make me the most proud. A forty-eight hour dance marathon -that's right dancers are on their feet for forty-eight hours! - a year long fund-raising effort to raise money for the Four Diamonds Fund which provides families with kids receiving cancer treatments at the Hershey Medical Center funds so the parents don't have to worry about finances while their kid is fighting cancer. THON is also the largest student run philanthropy in the world and has been going on since 1977 when it was started by one family who lost their son to pediatric cancer. This year THON raised $12, 374, 034. 46 - all going to the Four Diamonds Fund, and all this was done without being recognized in any of the national media circuits. THON is why I'm proud to be a Penn Stater, and always will be!

I have to admit I'm pretty disappointed from this morning ... (But you kind of made up for it the next day with the TWO phone calls and all the text messages :) )

#28: February 23, 2013:
I will fight for you if I have to. I hope that I don't have to, but I will. The phrase you joked about the other day: "He's mine. Back off bitch!" will be the nicest thing that I do. ;)

#29: February 24, 2013:
I don't expect you to be perfect, just perfect for me :) (Which so far, you are :) )

#30: February 25, 2013: Cooking
I'm not a great cook, but give me a recipe and the right ingredients and I can be a decent cook, sometimes even good. My family picks on me for "not being able to cook" but they don't know that there are some thingsthat I can make pretty darn well. And I can bake great!
