Last Thursday Denise issued a challenge for this week’s 13…
“I would like to challenge all Thirteeners to come up with 13 things they like about themselves on the next Thursday 13…September 7.
I feel like we, as women, spend so much time scrutinizing ourselves that we sometimes forget the good stuff.â€
It seemed slightly indulgent and it was the most difficult list I’ve written in a while but here goes…
Thirteen things I like about me.
1. My lips, I think they’re a good size and shape. 2. My eyes, they’re a good colour – greenish. 3. I like that I like Sci-Fi, it seems like most girls just don’t get it. 4. I love that I’m willing to learn new things. At the moment I’m a bit excited about changing to a Linux based operating system. I’m quite quick at picking things up and remembering how to do things. 5. Like #3 I like that I like action movies and the sort of movies that hubby wants to watch. 6. I like my height, I’m short but that’s okay. 7. I’m fairly musical, which is nice. I play flute, guitar and can sing too. 8. I set high standards for myself. I often get into a frizz when I don’t achieve them, which isn’t good but at least I care 🙂 9. My other/better half 😉 10. I’m getting better at karate all the time. 11. My attitude to life is improving as well. 12. I go through stages of creativity. 13. Most of all I like that I’m chosen by God to be one of his children. Sweet!

The Shrone says
Sci-fi rules! I’ve always been a geek, though. My list this week is about favorite villains, some of whom are from sci-fi works.
meredith says
amen on the scifi comment. I am with you, sister!
Denise says
:party: Awesome list!!!! Thanks for participating.
I’m one of the weird girls…I don’t get sci-fi. :shrug:
Jennfactor says
I like my height and my sci-fi, but while I love to sing, I would never refer to myself as musically blessed on any level–strictly an appreciation thing… 😀
Tess says
I like scifi and action movies too! never thought of it as a positive attribute to myself though, but it sure does make picking a movie one less hassle, huh? :coffee:
Southern Girl says
Great list! Yay for #13!

Remember “small is beautiful”, I guess it applies to being short as well since I am short, lol :coffee:
Happy TT, my list is up!
Tracie says
Great list!!
I’m short too….
I like the chick flicks and the action movies…my hubby likes the action movies and the chick flicks-we are a good movie match!
Mine is up!
Incog says
I like Dr Who (don’t really get it – but nonetheless like it) – not sure if that counts as Sci Fi.
Friday's Child says
This challenge is great. It makes you know your fellow thirteeners better. Nice knowing you.
Mine is up too.
Louise says
Not sure if I get all Sci-Fi. And Fantasy confuses the heck out of me.
I’ve tried to rise to the challenge too.
MommyBa says
Such a cool person you are 🙂 Thanks for sharing bits about you.
Happy Thursday!
carmen says
amen to number 13!
colleen gleason says
I’m with you on #3 and #5, but there are some movies (guy flicks, I call’em) that my hubby likes that I don’t get. Like Caddyshack.
Give me a thriller or an action adventure anyday, though.
And #13 ROCKS!
Barb says
Great list, but I like #13 most of all.
My TT is up.
Darla says
Chalk me up as another female sci-fi fan. You’re not alone. 🙂
Tink says
You did the challenge and came up with this wonderful list. Congratulations! I didn’t finish the challenge, so I’ll save it for another time. My TT is about birthday facts.
Tinker says
I like 13…i also like 3. I am a sci-fi nut! Tribble anyone?
Ocean Lady says

I totally get #3 & #5. I LOVE sci-fi! Hate the Lifetime channel though; I’d rather have my teeth drilled. Your list was awesome. I took the challenge and labored over it for 3 whole days. That’s not good. Stop by my blog anytime…
