Funny How Things Work Out

Isn't it though? Most of us have ideas of how things will be when we grow up. People look at kids and the way they are and for some reason think it shows what they will be like when they are adults. Lets take a look into the things that have changed about me since I was younger.

1. Growing up I had NO sweet tooth at all. I didn't even eat the cake at birthday per ties.
*I just ate a piece of pumpkin pie COVERED in whip cream. And I get cravings for sweets now.

2. I wanted to be an ER doctor.
*I don't even want to take an Anatomy class at school because I don't want to dissect a cadavar.

3. I would put zip lock bags over my hands and hold my breath whenever I had to touch raw meat.
*I like medium rare streak, and I touch all kinds of raw meat while cooking now.

4. I was insanely picky about food and wouldn't branch out.
*I will try everything once. And if I don't like it, I will keep trying it over and over again to see if it will grow on me.

5. I had a really closed mind about life issues. And maybe that just had to do with my age.
*I am open to hearing others opinions on things, and am willing to change.

6. I used to not care about what others thought about my clothes and hair.
*It really matters to me now.

7. I hated reading.
*Do I really have to say what the change is ;)

8. I wanted to be a mom by the time I was 22.
*I'm 24, and not trying.

9. I lived in heels.
*I live in ballet flats.

10. I was loud, and cheery, and patient.
*I like quiet, I'm happy, but not always, and I am trying to be patient :)

Of course there are so many things. But I won't write them all done now. The thing is, I am just realizing how much I am not the person I used to be. Its not bad, it just is. I used to write really well for my age. And right now I am struggling. But I am growing and changing as we speak. And I think that is a wonderful thing. I don't ever want to stay the same.
