lots of useless facts about myself :)

i've had this blog for a while, yes? yes. and i've posted tons, right? wrong. i've posted twice. i'm sure i'm not letting anyone down, nobody ever reads this ;) and i'm okay with that.

i deleted my facebook around two weeks ago. i was probably considered addicted. i would check my facebook before school, after school, after work, and several more random times before bed. i had enough. i quit ol' facebook cold turkey. for several days afterward i would find myself going to facebook and being like, 'oh, hey; i don't have a facebook'. then i would end up on twitter, my new favorite thing to do. and with twitter you find a lot of blogs. therefore, i have decided to become an avid tweeter and blogger. dream big, right? p.s. i decided i would allow myself to reactivate my facebook account on my birthday, february 16. honestly, i'm hoping i won't want it back.

with that, i have decided to revamp my blog and start fresh. i will write a little bit about myself so you all (the millions of people reading this *what a joke*) can learn a little more about me.

i'm payton. my hair is dark and my eyes are the color of emeralds. occasionally freckles grace my face. born and raised in a village with less than 200 people. not some awkward indian tribe, just a little village where everybody knows everybody. i've always liked it here, but lately i find myself wanting more. i have a zest for life like you wouldn't believe. i am ready to go out and explore the world. but will i end up back in my village? more than likely. i go to a school that is similar to a jail. it is referred to as the academy. i would try to explain, but you wouldn't understand unless you went there. there are 64 people in my graduating class. another situation where everybody knows everybody and you cannot do anything without everybody finding out. real cool. i have a brother and sister, who are incredible. my sister has never failed to be there for me. she's ten years older than me, and has always been nothing short of incredible. my brother is a goofball. he is five years older than i, but we get along great. we just get each other. when you get us together, be ready for some action. we are crazy. i currently reside with my mother and father, who are also incredible. oh, also.. my mother is a saint. outside of my immediate family, i have some crazy relatives. we are all very close and i love it. its a great feeling to know that you can always rely on them. they are all great people.
lets get to some random facts about me? ok. :)
my favorite color is green. i think its refreshing, rejuvenating, and eco-friendly. that last part was a joke. i think texting is a nuisance, but you'll catch me doing it frequently. my three biggest pet peeves are, in no particular order: 1.) bad grammar. 2.) bad driving. 3.) liars. i tend to sleep at all of the wrong times, like during class and after school, because i seem to have serious issues falling asleep at night. i don't watch a lot of tv, but my favorite show is probably house. oh, and i like the real housewives of orange county; gretchen and lynn are my favorites. i think i can tell genuinely good people from the rest, but i have no evidence of this. in my future i would like to get married, or maybe not. i just want to find someone that makes me happy and go with it. i would not like to have kids, because i just don't think its my thing. i do however find myself interested in reading blogs from women who are/have been/want to be pregnant. i like being able to read a blog and feel the happiness radiate off of the screen. and i also like to provide myself as a shoulder to cry on during the not so happy times. regardless, i think pregnant women are the cutest. (wow, did i really just put several sentences about pregnant women that i do not know in my 'about me'? yes.) i am different, no doubt about that. my mood swings give me whip lash. if you would look at my itunes, you'd say 'what the heck'. i have music ranging from alexandre desplat to akon. black rebel motorcycle club to black eyed peas. lady antebellum to lady gaga. michael jackson to miley cyrus. taylor swift to t-pain. thom yorke to theory of a deadman. you get the point, ha. i love music. every aspect and concept of music makes intrigues me. my favorite animal is a giraffe, but i don't have a giraffe; i have three stunning golden retrievers; ditka, mac, and lovie. they make me smile. i had a goldfish, michael phelps, but he is no longer with us. rip. ;) i'm considering taking up a boxing class. i believe that would be extremely beneficial for me, and for the safety of others. i love hello kitty. i am often in a great, happy mood; but i can get super vicious. when i sing rihanna i feel like a rockstar. i have a pink laptop and a black car. i could go on, and on. there are little nooks and crannies (sp?) that i keep finding stuff about myself to share with you. i feel like i've got a good start on this, though.

have an absolutely amazing week. i cannot wait for you to go through this crazy thing called life with me, via my blog and yours :)
