6.  However, I have personally been to 33 states total.

7.  My goal is to visit all 50 states in my lifetime (driving of course!).

8.   I'm a little bit OCD.  All my dvd's are filed first by categories, then alphabetically.  It drives Chris crazy but makes me so happy!

9.   My first car was a brand new Kia Sophia but it got taken away from me because I was putting too many miles on it.  My parents then bought me a used Chevy Cavalier that I drove up until two years ago.

20.   I can't smell.  Nope, this is not a lie.  I broke my nose as a kid and damaged the tissue, completely killing my sense.
