Awkward...

So, I am proud to admit that I am peculiar person. I know that I am much different from more 24 year olds of the world, and even in the church I might add. I have kind of always tried to hide my religion from the public eye, but it has always been in vain due to how weird I really am. Strangeness pours from ears and weirdness radiates from my presence.
Tonight was one of those nights when my peculiarity was questioned. It was not the first time that people have asked why I am so different. And when I tell them that I'm a Mormon, the barrage of questions are fired in my direction almost all at once. Tonight at work I was almost interrogated about my sexual life. First off, AWKWARD!!!! (probably more so for the reader having to read about Chachi's Sex life) Questions about sex with girlfriends or other very graphic questions that don't need to be repeated were asked. Now, I believe most of us in the Mormon faith have been asked a time or two about our sexual practices from those not of our faith, but I doubt many have been asked in the manner that I did. Not only were the questions so blunt and frank, but they were also posed in front of all of my co-workers in the kitchen. It was literally a moment of Stand-still while everyone waited to hear what my answers would be. The pressure was so insane that I almost just started to laugh out loud in one of those fits of insanity because it was so awkward and uncomfortable.
Needless to say, I answered all of the questions with a yes or no response, and left no time for thought. I feel it is so necessary to answer quickly and without hesitation as to leave behind any sign of doubt. Many were dumbfounded,some just kind of winced and went back to work. I on the other hand turned bright red, and went back to work somewhere in the back room as to hide my embarrassed face. Although I may have appeared to be ashamed of my answer (mainly due to the fact that it was some public forum on Chachi) I did not feel ashamed inside. I felt a little higher afterwords because of the fact that I practice what I preach and live what I believe. There is something to be said about standing up for ones beliefs, and I have to say that the personal satisfaction that I felt tonight was immense and gratifying to know that I stood up for faith and beliefs. Not just in front of a curious friend, but my entire body of co-workers.
Awkward?
Yes.
Worth it?
Absolutely!

The key to happiness...

I like Chocolate... Mainly because of its color and texture. (as long as its not burnt) I also like ice cream. Its my downfall, I always have enough room for it no matter how much food I have eaten prior to my ice cream feast. I like lasagna... especially when the cheese on the top is just a little crispy/burnt. The steamy layers are so tasty and meaty. How could you not want that in your tummy?

I like pie... mostly every kind, but the cream pies touch my heart in a way that only a cream pie could. I love cheese and its melty deliciousness. I like to eat noodles and asian tasty things, No matter how much fat there is, as long as its fried and from Panda Express I will consume it!

Pudding caresses my heart like a peacock feather in the wind. Its soft and gooey. Chicken is amazing and comes in so many different ways and syles... just like a secret agent. I love milk and Dr Pepper. It fills my tum tum with happiness.

Life is so good with a full tummy, It sedates me and makes me feel warm and toasty. It makes all my cares away and helps me to dream about more food and future lovers. it fills my mouth with goodness that stops me from saying things that will put me at the scene of a crime or in the line of wrath of a disgruntaled female.

Life is so much better with food. Life is even better when the food is inside of me.
