If You Really Knew me...



Good evening!!

For tonight's blog, I'm gonna be doing something a little different than my usual, jokey/sarcastic/bitch-it-out session. I will get a little deep on this one..but I got this idea from a show on MTV, called "If you really knew me". I have facebooked about this before and didn't get as far as i wanted...only updating a couple statuses. The show features different High Schools around the US, that deal with bullying, clicks, etc.- Normal high school drama. It breaks everyman into random groups and you sit in a circle with 4 of your other peers and being saying.."If you really knew me..". Its shocking to see what type of struggles everyone goes through..from the Popular kids..to the chubby loners. Its a real tear-jerker, let me tell you..I'm pretty sure I've cried every episode I've seen. It also talks about how the VAST majority of people resemble an Iceberg, in that we only show 10% of our real selves to society..and the other 90% remains hidden because we are afraid of being judged and/or ridiculed for who we REALLY are..think about it. This also bring me back to the blog I did a while back about "Stereo-typing saves time..or so they say". SO, now that I've explained how it works, I will remove my own mask and let you in a few secrets of mine...here goes...

If You Really Knew Me...
It took me a VERY long time to realize I was worthy of love..and that he isn't going anywhere.

If You Really Knew Me...
You'd know that my parents divorce changed the way I look/feel about love forever...not that I've ever known any different.

If You Really Knew Me...
You'd know, as tough as I try to be on the outside, I am ALL heart and take EVERYTHING personally.

If You Really Knew Me...
I HATE crying in front of ANYONE..i feel ashamed if I ever have.

If You Really Knew Me...
You'd know, that when it comes to friendships, I mate for life...and I have no time for flakers.

If You Really Knew Me...
You'd know that my Ultimate dream job is to own my own Spa!

If You Really Knew Me...
It takes me a longtime before I can get close to anyone

If You Really Knew Me...
You'd know it takes a lot of effort to be the type of friend, each friend in my life needs.

If You Really Knew Me...
My life's aspiration is to have./keep great love...above all else.

If You Really Knew Me...
You'd know I have a true gift at knowing what a person is REALLY like..even before our first conversation.

If You Really Knew Me...
You'd know when I'm upset/sad, I refuse to turn to substance...I take walks to clear my head.

If You Really Knew Me...
I am displeased by how I look without make-up on...and sometimes wish I could carry around a picture of myself at my best, and show random people THAT picture (if they catch me without make-up on) and say, this is how I USUALLY look.

If You Really Knew Me..
You'd know I am a TRUE romantic...although I hate to admit it.

If You Really Knew Me..
I will NEVER tell you something you WANT to hear...I'll always tell you exactly what you NEED to hear/or what I think..This is not a bakery, I don't sugar coat ANYTHING.

If You Really Knew Me..
I Over-think and Over-analyze EVERYTHING.

If You Really Knew Me..
I have a quick temper, but am even quicker to forgive.

Well folks, that's about all for tonight. Hope you enjoyed...I feel a bit naked without my armour on right now, I must say. But i felt the need to go BALLS OUT on this one, and I'm proud that I did. Anyways, have a fantastic night!!!!

Question: Post a comment with the words "If you really knew me.." And tell me something deep/dark/random about yourself.

- Love, Laura xoxox

  1. We are pretty similar I think. I hate crying in front of people too, even M! And it takes me a long time to let people get close to me too.

    I love that you want to be a stay at home mom!
