10 or more top ten lists

Hi Everyone,
So I have a friend that gave me a challenge and what it is is that I have to complete 10 or more top ten list . Yes that is a ten or more separate lists. She told me that this is a great way to get to know someone. The lists can be anything from a simple your top ten movies or can run deep like your top ten dreams. So I decided that I would try this out and share them with you all :) I hope that you learn a little more about me! :)

Top Ten Facts About Me
1. I am 1 of 1000 kids to be born with a disability called Spina Bifida.
2. I'm person that keeps my emotions in too long
3.  I can be a push-over (learning to not be)
4. I let my fears sometimes run my life for the most part. 
5. I hate being used but sometimes don't realize till too late 
6. My true friends are the world to me.. Mess with them and you will see my dark side 
7. I am more of a writer than a talker. I can pour my heart out in a message then I can face to face.

10. I dont trust easily. I have gotten burned too many times. So if I say I trust you please take it to heart. 

Top Ten Books I Have Read (these books I have read recently. I dont always get a chance to read so when i do I sink in the book. I hope they inspire you to pick one of them up and read)
1. Unlimited- Jillian Michaels- this book is a self help book but unlike others she is so unfront with alot of things. I would recommend this book to anyone who has thought they are lost in life.
2. The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks- I love this book. Yes, its a tearjerker but i love a touchy moments sometimes.
3.  Reba:My Story- this is the life story about my hero. It goes into great details of her struggles and triumphs
4. Shania Twain: From this moment on- I recommend this story to anyone who needs a good read about a girl that came from almost nothing and became one of most successful musician in the world.
5. Sleeping Dogs Lie- Rebecka Vigus- If you love a good mystery. I would recommend this book. It has a great story line and pace to it.
6. Dolphin Tales- this is a story of a dolphin that was caught by some fisherman router and got washed up on the shore. She was rescued and lost her tale due to infection. It tells of her incredible determination to live
7. Harry Potter Series by J.K. Rowling- Yeah I know what your thinking that they are so childish but to be honest I love there story line of mystery and the meaning of love.
8.  Soul Surfer by Bethany Hamilton - This is the story of Bethany Hamilton. She got her arm bite off by a shark but learn to surf again.

Top Ten Fears
1. Forgetting- I have had my share of deaths in my life. Heck when I was little I would being living from one to another. I have this huge fear that I will forget those people especially my Grandma Rita. I cant remember how her voice sounded, her smell, her laugh. It just makes me sad to think its all disappearing.
2. Moving away/Letting Go- This a complicated thing. I want to move away from here. I want to go to warmer weather or maybe Tennessee. The reason stopping me is the fear of what if? What if my shunt screws up? What if something happens and I don't know how to hang it..
3. Not fitting in- This is something I've struggled for a long time. Living with a disability, I've always compared myself to other people.
4. The Unknown (Future)- I am not a good one at new things. I get anxious alot and I actually think too much.
5. Standing in front of people- I have this huge stage fright for as long as I can remember. I can have dreams though that I am standing front of people at talent show and things but I froze even in Public speaking class.
6. Losing people I Love- This is a constant fear because no one is promised tomorrow! One minute they are there and the next they are gone. I just want them all to know I love them so much! I have had to many go and I regret not telling them how much i really needed them.
7. Crawling things- This includes spiders,any rodents, or bugs. They give me the shivers.  
8. Needles- Ive always had a phobia to needles. I am getting better though. I used to flip out just by the sight of them.
9. My Dreams Not Coming True- This is always on my mind. Its scares the crap out of me to never get to give my hero (REBA) a hug and thank her in person. To never get out in the world and make a difference.
10. Failure- I guess this is big fear of alot of people but for me it is huge. I dont like to fail. It hurts too much and when I do fail it feels like a part of me dieing.

  1. A year ago you would not have even attempted one list. I am so proud of you. You've found some great quotes to live by. You've shared your dreams and fears. I am honored to count you as a friend. You are NOT your disability, you are a delightful young woman. Let's get with that girly look a bit more.
