just one defining thing about yourself, what would it be?
I would seriously consider the first -- goodbye goofy nose! But I've reached an age where I'm really trying to embrace my own unique surface. Past decision? Plenty of choices I'd have to pick from but I think every wrong way I've ever gone has still helped shape who I am today and gotten me to my present very fortunate situation so ....
Definitely it would have to be a personality trait. Though deciding which one to adjust still leaves me with rather a gnarly dilemma. I may have an embarrassment of riches there!
there was a time that I did not honor my intuition about a person. My life would be the same now if I had, but I would have spared myself 10 years of marriage to the wrong person and the subsequent fallout.
However, I've learned to live with the fact that we make the only decision we CAN make at the time we make it. I was not the person I am now, then, and probably that experience is why I now trust my gut instincts so much.
If I could go back and tell my 20-somthing self anything, it would be "never stop doing yoga - at least, until Pilates comes in and then do that"; "take singing lessons!"; and "never diet. Just don't eat bread or sugary things."
I would have voted past decision, but I've come to live with the choices I've made. But one thing I would love to get rid of is the double chin I have. Even though it wouldn't change my looks any, I'd feel less ugly. And losing weight isn't going to do anything about it, as it comes down to genetics. All the women in my mom's family have it, no matter what weight they are. I'm usually fine about it, unless I happen to catch my reflection just right and am reminded how hideous it looks.
Are running a lot closer than I thought they would. Interesting! Part of me thinks the divisions might be age - related. Too late to add age options for voters.
Yes, I said it. I have 38D's, and they are constantly killing my back and neck (had 34B before having kids). Also would love to get rid of my "baby tummy"- my girls were tall babies, and I'm only 5 foot 1/2 inch tall (1.5m, for those who aren't in the US - or, for comparison, about the same height as Kili, according to WETA, and shorter than both Thorin and Dwalin ) with narrow hips, so I got stretch marks like crazy, and they don't shrink back after the babies are born Come to think of it, both issues were caused by my girls with the pregnancies. Love them dearly, but they gave me two things that cause constant back, neck and shoulder pain
Also my hair. It's honey colored blonde that turns a good red if the sun catches it, and it's super curly. Downside is that it's also very fine, and super curly, blondish/red, fine hair are ALL types that break easily I want to grow it to my waist, if not the top of my butt, but keep getting setbacks where I have to cut it to above my shoulders because of this issue- I would LOVE stronger hair! By the time It got to the bottom of my shoulder blades and almost to my waist (recently) nearly half of it was only 3 inches long! And it was under the long part, but still....of course, a dyeing job gone bad resulting in 4 dyes to the same batch of hair before it was finally corrected properly scorched it No more dyeing for me!
