Eight interesting things about Natalie...Finally

1.) My hair changes color/style almost every other week. It's been red, blond, brown, really dark brown, and magenta, it's also been wavy, curly, straight, puffy, flat, long, short, shoulder-length, it's been an emo mullet, I've had bangs and no bangs, layers and no layers, emo side-sweep...you name it, it's been on my head. (except for black, my mom still won't let me go black. It'll be my first color once i turn 18!)

Just a few of these crazy hairstyles.
2.)I'm notorious for my afro.
3.) My dream is to go to North Korea...the single most secretive country in the world.
A few facts
No outsiders are allowed in, and no people living there are allowed out.
Kim jong Il, the current leader has complete power over everything. The only books there are written by him and his father, Kim Il Song.
At night, the only lights in the entire country are located in the city of Pyong yang, where Kim Jong il lives, along with a few other wealthy people who work directly for him.
Twelve lane streets wind all throughout the country, with little girls in blue dresses directing non-existent traffic...the only people with cars are those who work for Kim Jong il.
All the buildings in North Korea are the same. They're all grey and made of concrete. The tallest hotel in the world is located there, but it is unfinished and there is no one staying in it because no one visits the country.
Many of the citizens have no idea that there is even a world outside North Korea, and those who do are forbidden to talk about it.
Kim Jong il hates america, yet he has one of the largest collections of american movies, and is the world's largest consumer of Henacy. (gangster alcohal!)

At night, you can see that South Korea is lit up, and North Korea is not.

The border between South and North Korea. The Men standing by the light blue building are guarding the North Korean Border. There are 2 instead of one to make sure neither try to run to the other side. The South Korean side is the one with the paved roads, the bottom of the picture is north Korea. The roads are cracked and made of dirt.


Little girls are assigned to direct traffic even thought there are no cars.

The tallest unfinished hotel in the world.

so, basically, entering North Korea would mean uncovering some of the world's biggest secrets. It would mean gaining information that know one else knows. I could be one of the only people with knowledge of what life is like on both sides of the border. It just seems so amazing and mind boggling to me. I can hardly even put it into words...I JUST WANT TO GO THERE!!!!
...so now that my little tangent is over, it's time for number 4.
4.) I have the best friends in the world:

Kara

Kerri
Kamala

Lauren
Scott (the left) and Jayce (the right)

AJ

Caroline and Carson
Bailey (on the left) and lauren...again
They're all basically amazing! :)
5.) I'm a Justin Timberlake fan.
6.) I totally wish i was from the UK. Sometimes I even speak in a british accent when no one is home.
7.) I watch George Lopez evernight at 10:00, and then i watch tyra at 11:00, and when i can't sleep i sometimes watch Janice Dickenson even though she's a botox-gone-wrong jerk who wishes she was as cool as tyra.
8.) I hate thinking about college. I don't want to leave all my friends, and I don't want to be forced to make a decision about what i want to do for the REST OF MY LIFE!
so, there you have it...8 random facts about natalie. you can go ahead and get back to living your life now.
