I’m Kristen. Welcome to All In My Twenties, my place to pour my little heart out on the daily!! This is the world just as I see it. Why dont you kick up your feet and stay awhile?!
After countless emails, texts and Facebook messages, Ive agreed to particpate in the ever so popular "If you really knew me" posts, to get Raven's hot ass off my back! ;) Ive also promised to share the good shiz! So here you have it ladies...
If you really knew me...
you would know I wash my hair twice a week MAX. Sometimes I stretch that shiz to 5-6 days. In my defense, I have little to-no oil production on my scalp. Its SO weird, I KNOW! I dont even sweat in my hair. And one extremely drunken summer of college I may have went 13 days without washing my hair. Thats SICK and I know it. But I was way too drunk to care, or notice for that matter.
you would know my biggest insecutity is, and will always be, my rather large ass. This thing has been with me since high school and you would think I would get use to it. But NO, it'll never happen. Every single time someone comments on it my heart cringes a little. I smile and laugh it off even though it really bothers me.
you would know my phone number. Its been the same since freshman year of high school. I would probably die if I ever had to get a new one. Imagine Carrie SATC post calling off her engagement. That would be me.
you would know I LOVE to clean out my ears with Qtips. L.O.V.E. Its my favorite part of getting ready! And if the Qtip isnt dirty, I feel like I didnt do a good enough job. 9 times out of 10 it isnt because I clean my ears way too much.
you would know I have to chase Tugger every single night to clean his face and every single night he runs to the exact same hiding spot. Sweet boy will never like his wrinkles being cleaned.
you would know that having my room and closet perfectly clean, with my laundry put away pleases me like nothing else. Okay maybe Christopher pleases me more, but a clean home is a close second! TMI.
you would know I once shaved my sideburns off because they didnt stay in my ponytail. No I was not 6, I was 19 and pretty intoxicated at the time. Explains the ridiculous thought process. My hair dresser was absolutely horrified and will never let me live this experience down. Niether will Steph!
If you really knew me...
you would know that trust is the ONE thing you should never break in my book. Once thats gone its damn near impossible to get back. Actually I dont think anyone has ever regained it with me. Burn me once shame on you... Burn me twice shame on ME.
you would know that I want boobs more than anything in the world. I think boobs are so feminine and girly and I wish I had boobs without a push up bra! If I have it my way, I'll have them soon enough!
you would know I that I blister and bruise VERY easily. I cannot remember the last time I had zero bruises on my body. And my skin blisters if something rubs it twice. Its ridiculous. These are from tennis shoes. Seriously??
you would know "just because" mail brightens my day.
you would know my worst fear is divorce. And I genuinely believe "A family that prays together stays together".
you would know that I have to sleep with "covers" even if its 100 degrees. I will literally find the thinnest sheet I can just have something over me. With that said, my feet have to be out of the covers to feel the fan. Oh there must be a fan.
you would know I LOVE sweet tea and hardly ever drink sodas.
and last but very not lease, you would know how much I love all of you!!!! Awwww!! :)
hahah ive had the same phone number since sophomore year (?) in HS ... even though i moved to nyc i refuse to get rid of my florida #!! i also must ALWAYS have a sheet or something covering me to sleep!!! & i want boobs really bad too! hahah
ReplyDeleteoh, and i literally cannot remember a time i didn' have a bruise on my body and i just got two blisters in the insides of my toes! ouchiie!
so basically, twinsiiess! hahah
thanks for sharing!!!
Love this! I have a big ass too and I hate it. I don't understand why people feel the need to comment on it.
ReplyDeleteI love these posts! So many things in this I can sympathize with - big ass, having a clean house makes me SO happy, love Q-tips :)

ReplyDeleteI wish I didn't have to wash my hair as much!
ReplyDeleteugh I am jealous that you only have to wash your hair twice a week. I have the thickest hair imaginable and it is SO annoying to wash every other day. :( I might have to do this on my blog..hmmm
ReplyDeletehaha. laughing at Tugger and his wrinkles. and bruises?! oh man, I'm the same way. you just made me look down at my legs and I see 4 that are visible. It might have something to do with jumping out of a plane. hmmm.
ReplyDeleteI love this so much I can't even stand it. The first pic is the best pic ever: )
ReplyDeleteI only have to wash my hair twice a week too at the most. So nice to just shower and go! Oh but the mornings when it has to be washed, I hate doing it! So many of my oily haired friends are jealous but i think it secretly grosses out my boyfriend!
ReplyDeleteI adore having a clean room complete with laundry put away, however, I hate the actual process of getting it that way!
ReplyDeleteregarding your "biggest insecurity" - I HIGHLY recommend Jillian Michaels' Killer Buns and Thighs DVD. It's only like 25 minutes (if you don't do the warm up and cool down, which I never do) and there are 3 levels, and all are KILLER! You can tell a difference in like 2 days. I can't imagine what 30 days of it would be like! I LOVE your blog, btw, as I've told you before :) And I have like 6 bruises on my legs at all times, and I have no clue why! Hope you have a great week :)
ReplyDeleteI have to have covers on too!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd getting divorced is one of my biggest fears as well. scures me to no end!
xoxo
I sleep with a blanket always as well, with my feet sticking out too!! I also bruise too easily!!
ReplyDeleteFun post!!
I cannot sleep at ALL without covers and a fan. I honestly think it might be impossible ;)
ReplyDeleteLoved this! I did mine yesterday and had so much fun! And haha, I shaved my sideburns about a year ago, haha, sigh... I was so dumb to do that. They grew back in all directions...
ReplyDeleteBy the way, fellow sweet tea lover- McAllisters has free tea tomorrow :) Just FYI.
I can't even begin to tell you how many phone numbers I've had since HS - I'm such a carrier hopper!! That's awesome though, I wish I had the same.
ReplyDeleteI bruise easy too - it blows!!!
Is it bad I've never tried Sweet Tea...? Us Northerners are out of the loop..
I HAVE to sleep with something over me too no matter how hot it is and my feet are always sticking out and I have to have a pillow between my legs. All sorts of sleeping rules lol.
ReplyDeleteI also only wash my hair about once a week - It's thick and so dry. Thank goodness for Dry Shampoo to get me through "one more day"
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that I am not the only person that only washes their hair once or twice a week!
ReplyDeleteOMG! We're so similar. I wash my hair maybe 2-3 times a week. I clean my ears obsessively. LOVE that feeling. HAHA I've had my number since my first cell phone too! I have to have covers on and my foot out of the bed too!
ReplyDeleteThe one thing we're not the same on is organizing my room. I'm so bad at it. I crazy clean it, and then wait for it to get crazy messy again before I organize it again. Wanna come help? HAHAHAHA
I'm really jealous of your non-hair washing abilities. If I could go even one day without washing mine, I'd be thrilled! I have a slight panic attack if I can't dry my ears with a q-tip after I shower or swim- absolutely cannot stand wet ears!
ReplyDeleteJust stumbled across your blog! You're adorable. I think we're the same person. :)
ReplyDeleteI also hate washing my hair but it doesn't get oily...so, dirty hair, don't care! (and it even looks better dirty)
I currently have 8 bruises: not a clue where they came from! I bruise so easily!
And, I have the perfect e-card for you. I've got a big ol booty too (i chalk it up to gymnastics, gone fat instead of muscle) haha! I'll tag you on instagram :)
And of course, I'm a new follower!
I love these posts!! I love "just because" mail...I think I need a pen pal! And I really wish I could not wash my hair everyday. The only way I make it more than a day is camping, and then I don't really care.
ReplyDeleteLove reading your blog!
I love this! I'm doing mine tomorrow. I laughed out loud about cleaning out your ears because I love it too! I can't stand when I think there is ear wax in there. It grosses me out to the max. I also heard q-tips are super bad for your ear drums but I don't care haha!
ReplyDeleteI totally do the same thing with covers...I rather be cacooned in a down comforter in the middle of the summer and a foot stuck out to feel the AC than be without any blankets. So silly but oh so comfy!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is "It's about time!" My hubby is the same way about Qtips! I have had the same number since highschool and it irritates me when someone I knew in highschool asks me what my number was. Weird. Oh there MUST be a fan if I am sleeping!
ReplyDeleteI am the same way with sleeping! I have to have something on top of me, if it gets really hot, I'll poke my feet out, but there must be some cover on me!
ReplyDeleteLove the post! I am the SAME with covers. I will not allow myself to sleep without them. I swear the boogie man might get me! HA! Have a fab day!
ReplyDeleteI love everything in this post. I also wish I had boobs without a push-up. Damn those women blessed with boobs for days!
ReplyDeleteI love this. May jump on the train!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA you seriously always crack me up!!! The QTip thing, OMG!! HA!!! We're definitely alike on the hair thing!!! And I have the opposite problem in the boob department!
ReplyDeleteFor real the world would most certainly end if I had to sleep without covers.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have an ass for days but zilch for boobs. But boys love butts so shake it lady!
My ass is HUGE, too. I like to refer to it as my Texas Toast, because it is white and thick. We shall band together!
ReplyDeleteI only wash my hair once or twice a week too. My cell phone has been the same for 13-14 years, and I now live in a different area code. I just can't give it up. No matter the temperature, I have to have a blanket. It just feels weird not to have one.
ReplyDeleteDivorce completely freaks me out too. That is why I waited until I had been with my boyfriend for 10 years before we were married.
