Lists

I make lists, it's sort of what I do.

It makes life less complicated.  Helps me stay organized (and sometimes I can be a serious neat freak).

So I thought I'd share some of my lists with you guys!

Here's a list of my lists (or you can just scroll down... either way.  It's very, List-y)

• The Cast
• The Ultimate Playlist
• Favorite Words
• Wish List (come on, everybody has this list somewhere...)
• Bucket List
• Book Log 
• 3 Words

Yes, I'm also a bookworm

Thought I'd make a book log, I mean.  I've always had one, but I'm just gonna start over.

Ratings:

The Ultimate Playlist

It's pretty self explanatory.  A GINORMOUS (yes that is a combo of gigantic and enormous) list of all the music I love in no particular order.

1. Bottle it Up - Sara Bareilles
2. Breakeven (Fallin' to Pieces) - The Script 
3. Hey, Soul Sister - Train

The Cast

Wondering who these people are that I keep mentioning.  Here's a rundown on the characters of my life (yes, the names are all fake).

• Nadia Echo - ME!  Yes, I'm a loony, love obsessed teenager that is the star in this show.
• Chris (or LB) - My brother.  Little brother by 5 years.  A total pain in the ass and annoying me on purpose but I still love him (but only because it's mandatory.  Just kidding...Sort of).
• Cedric - Cousin that I rarely see but for some reason he talks to me.  A LOT.  I don't even know how he got my cellphone number...
• Kiki - Insane, boy-crazed teen.  She's been my best friend since like 2nd grade (we've known each other longer, but we used to be rivals and it ended with vandalism and cops...It's a long story) and we are basically sisters.  She gets on my nerves A TON but I still love her.
• Scarlett (AKA Tilly) - She's a little behind everybody else when it comes to the outside world, (for example, her blog...sort of had to help her out with it, she's definitely not very internet savvy.  In fact, the exact opposite).  She's quiet, but super sweet and smart, tall and a total BEANPOLE (inside joke, you'll have to ask her if you want to know).   
• Marie - She's super athletic, and definitely really smart, and a little crazy, but she's definitely pretty cool.

How many of you have seen/heard of the movie "The Bucket List"? I think it was a good movie and right after I saw it I got the idea to make my own bucket list...For all of you who don't know what a bucket list is, it's a list of things you want to do before you "hit the bucket" (AKA die)...

17. Try out acting (how cool would it be to be a FAMOUS actress, but not the crazy ones)

38. Have you ever seen in movies when a girl and guy are out or with all their friends and they are near a lake (at night) or break into an empty pool...And no one was expecting to go swimming and they all just strip to like thier undies and bra and dive in? I think it would be FUN to do that!
