So I recently came across a blog post from fatmumslim titled "50 Things to Blog About".
Figured this would be a great chance and more of an excuse to blog more often.
So I'll pick one at random whenever I feel the inspiration and babble about it for the world to read.
Let's kick it off with subject number 33.
[[33. Bad habits. Share yours and why you won’t give it up. Ever.]]
Bad habits. Let's get completely honest here. I'm probably the most OCD person on the planet. Well maybe not on the planet, but I'm pretty high up there.
Bad habit 1 - I am completely obsessed with my nails being short. They can't even grow a little bit without me grabbing the nail clippers. I used to strictly bite them, but now it's mostly just clipping them. Short nails are clean nails. Just saying. I can't give this one up because I would lose my mind entirely.
Bad habit 2 - I floss EVERYWHERE. I use those little portable floss sticks they make so I literally will floss any time my teeth are bothering me. Now when I was a kid, flossing was the last thing on my mind. But as I've gotten older it's become an obsession, and I'm not embarrassed to floss my heart out no matter where I might be. Note to this though...I don't flick the plaque at people or on things, that's just gross. I always use a tissue to get rid of the excess. I won't give it up because I love having clean teeth!
Bad habit 3 - I am a total pack rat. Not as bad as I used to be, but pretty bad. Luckily I've gone through most of my belongings and gotten rid of what I don't need here recently. Although being a pack rat has it's positive side. I've found so many things from old friends and previous schools that most people have thrown away years ago. It feels great to see the things my friends and I shared throughout our younger years. I won't give it up because obviously it can be a good thing.
Bad habit 4 - A common one, I'm sure. I LOVE my Red Bulls and my mocha frappucinos from Starbucks. So bad for me but two things I won't ever give up because they are too good, and they are my favorite for when I'm craving something full of calories and sugar.
Bad habit 5 - I tend to open a can of soda and only drink half of it. Sometimes because I get busy and forget about it until it gets warm and flat, other times I just lose interest in drinking it. Maybe I should start buying the little cans. Hmmmm. I won't give up drinking soda because it's the greatest.
Bad habit 6 - Not sure if this is a bad habit but it's craving my brain gets. I love to rub the bottoms of flared jeans. I put the fabric in between my fingers and the coolness feels so good against my skin. I literally rub them until they get faded and weak and then I rip them to pieces. I won't give it up because I think it's a release from the stress I feel.
Bad habit 7 - I unlock and check my iPhone too much, even when I don't have a message or email to check. Usually after I open it I remember I have no friends. Hah. I won't give it up because yes, I am phone obsessed.
Bad habit 8 - Last and final habit I can think of. I am totally in love with school supplies/office supplies, whatever you want to call them. I have probably well over 500 pens/pencils/highlighters/Sharpies/markers etc. I have tons of spiral notebooks and loose leaf paper. Post-its, index cards, you name it, I've got it. Now before you say anything, I recently threw away a bunch of writing utensils, and I plan on giving a lot away to people who have a normal amount of pens or don't have enough. I won't give it up because I LOVE PENS. If you're like me then you have to be in a certain mood to write with a certain type of pen. Inky, ballpoint, fine point, it all depends on my mood.
So that's way more bad habits than I thought I had, and there are probably more. But for now I'll stick with the 8 that came to mind first. What are your bad habits? Comment on this post and let me know I'm not alone, LOL.
Stay magical.
