Manhattan through Spiritual, Southern, Single eyes

Quote

O make me Thine forever;
And, should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
Out live my love to Thee.

25 things about me

1) I make up words and if you hang around with me for long you will also use them. Score if you can tell me at least one of my made up words.
2) I randomly say things in French (For example, I never say, Pajamas. I always say Pyjamas.)
3) I've had the same best friend since elementary school. Awesome and dangerous. She has pictures and stories for black mail. I say her name a very specific way.
4) I am ESTJ on the Myers Briggs but have tendencies of the I for personal refueling & some tendencies of the F. I guess I'm getting more emotional as I get older. Just great.
5) I'm a country girl at heart but...
6) I would wear heels everyday if they were as comfortable as they are cute.
7) Christ is most important in life. II Cor 5:17-21
8) I plan to travel my whole life experiencing new cultures and places.
9) I have a love/hate relationship with New York. Don't we all?
10) Good, true, committed friends are hard to come by. I've got a few who are stuck with me forever. (Ta Ta's, Squawk, Hannahs)
11) Some of the funniest people I know are Adriana, Laryssa, Crystal, Ashley L., Joe Naramore & Blair Burke.
12) I've tasted great joy and great sorrow.
13) I'm a wuss. No comments from any peanut gallery/former roommates about my whining. It comes with the package ;0).
14) My brothers and Adriana can draw out a playfulness in me that no one else can.
15) I probably have the most awesome, crazy family out there. Just come to a reunion with me. You will agree. I'm blessed.
16) This is impossible but an awesome day would be riding four wheelers/motorcycles on my Paw Gene's farm in NC with my brothers and then getting dressed up and going to a Broadway show in NY.
17) My parents have taught me how to laugh until it hurts, have compassion on those around me, and to cling to Christ.
18) I've lived in North Carolina, France, South Africa, and now NYC.
19) I broke my arm in Mrs. Rhye's Second Grade class on the monkey bars. If I think it about too long I can still feel the pain. Reference # 13
20) I love watching shows about medicial mysteries like the Woman with Half a body, or Half ton Dad, or the one with the lady with crazy, big legs. And yes, I might add, all 3 of these people are married.
21) I've seen every single episode of Friends a million times and pretty much think of scenes from the show daily. You can't tell me Ross' leather pants aren't hilarious!
22) I have two non-blood related nieces. Lily & Elizabeth and I love them.
23) When I was 3 years old my dad had me sing, "Jesus loves me" in a bar.
24) My grandparents have been some of the most influential people in my life.
25) I love to read. Some faves are, "Strong Women, Soft Hearts," "Kite Runner," John Piper's Swan Series, "Redeeming Love"
