About

By Asia Bird

Here is way to much information you probably never wanted to know about me

Things I Love

Zach, the smell of clean sheets, tattoos, planet earth, my wonderful family, and fabulous friends, the smell of fresh cut grass, stepping on sprinkler heads, watching needles going into skin (I like watching people get tattoos, shots, or drawing blood – I have never seen, nor do I think I would like watching people do drugs like heroin or other crazy stuff like that). I like going to the dentist, singing to Zachary, hats of all kinds (it it normal for a girl to have more hats than pairs of shoes?), vampire/werewolf/zombie/monster stories, kung fu movies, chocolate chip cookies for breakfast, sore muscles (because that means I did something to earn it!) I like coke slurpees, because there is no carbonation in them. I love cold cloudy days, and I like snow. I like sharks (not actually the sharks themselves, but rather I like learning all about them, I guess). Mountains. Not wearing any shoes (I might be the only girl that hates shoes – I only own like 5 pairs of shoes) Pets – mine and other peoples. I love having my back tickled, probably more than anything in the world (much to the detest of anyone sitting next to me – yes, if you sit next to me, I will ask you to tickle my back). I could live off of popcorn and strawberries (not necessarily together, but they are my two most favorites). Handwritten letters, cuddling, the song that meadow larks sing in the morning, black and white photography. History (especially US and European history during 1938-1948, and English history from 1400-1500, wild west stuff, and pretty much any history in general) fire places, computers/internet/techy stuff – especially if made by Mr. Jobs (I’m totally an Apple geek). I like inside jokes, of course hopefully you and I have them! Cheese pizza (thanks to Erin for introducing me to the crack that is plain cheese pizza). Movie quotes. Keeping in touch (don’t be afraid to email me or call me, even if it’s been a while) with friends and family.

Things I Love To Do

Snowboard, travel, hike, wakeboard, dance, find new adventures, skateboard, go rock climbing, go camping, read – read – read, sleep in, bake cookies and breads and other yummy stuff, take pictures, try to speak Spanish with out sounding like a total idiot, ride 4 wheelers (especially when it’s muddy), movies, beat people at air hockey (trust me, you don’t stand a chance), cut off my split ends while talking on the phone, spin fire, play volleyball, organize and reorganize stuff (“Have you seen my…[insert noun here]…? Or did you organize it away”, I hear that from Zach all the time), scrapbooks, of course! I love to jump on trampolines….yeah, I can do cool stuff on a trampoline. I like playing laser tag – especially if Jack and Chase play too (those two are pretty much GI Joes), hanging out with friends, going to the flea markets! I like to watch live hockey – Go Sharks! I can always talk about religion and politics and life. I like to wear black – not in a creepy goth/emo way (sorry mom, sorry erika – I’ll always be fashion challenged), roller coasters (I gotta warn you….I’m a screamer).

Movies I Love

First, and always at the top of my list is the Parent Trap - the old one with Haley Mills. Not the Lindsay Lohan one. I pretty much LOVE movies – just in general, so it has to be pretty bad for me not to like it. But some of those special movies that I could watch over and over again include The Sandlot, Grease, Last of the Mohicans, Resident Evil 2, Shaun of the Dead, The Gods Must be Crazy II, Dirty Dancing, Ace Ventura Pet Detective, Love Actually, Monte Python and the Search for the Holy Grail. Anything with Johnny Depp or Christian Bale. Project Grizzly and the Grizzly Man…as long as I watch em with Zach and Stetson. I always cry when I watch All Dogs go to Heaven. Always. I really like movies that make me think, or that I find myself still mulling around a few days after watching it.

Books I Love

My all time favorite book is the Fountainhead. I’ve read it many times. Each time I read it, it’s like I figure out something new about myself. Other than that, I am CONSTANTLY reading. Sometimes it takes over everything. If you ever want a recommendation for a good book – ask me!

Music I Love

I like all music, but especially the kind that makes me want to move! Mostly I listen to Punk, Alternative or Classic rock. But when I’m in a mellow mood, I like to listen to Spanish guitar, or classical music. I think that classical music makes me smarter, even though I know that’s a myth. I love it when Zach or Erika sings, especially when they are performing. I can’t sing nor can I play an instrument, so I have a lot of respect and admiration for those who do. I love 80′s music, I’ll even admit to belting it out to country music when I’m alone. I also LOVE LOVE LOVE Christmas music. And that’s pretty much all I listen to from the day after Thanksgiving until New Years Day. I know that it bugs everyone around me – and to them I say….ba humbug!
