Things You Should Know


 

1.       I like birds, but only watching them fly

2.       I really like drinking out of crazy straws, but not when I drink smoothies

3.       Germs are the worst, so I like washing my hands – 16 times a day

4.       Speaking of 16, I really like multiples of 8

5.       I like looking up at stars in the few places where there’s not light pollution drowning their shine out of the sky

6.       I like showing people the stars: Orion’s belt, big dipper, ursa major

7.       I like the phrase “This made me think of you,” ‘cause that’s easily the sincerest form of affection. I like that too

8.       I like mechanical pencils because the sounds of wooden ones hurts my head

9.       I like playing guitar until my fingers bleed

10.   I like hearing about things other people are passionate about

11.   I like your smile

12.   Your eyes

13.   Your voice when you talk about things that make you smile

14.   I like your hair, but mostly I like it when it’s messy because I still get to see it

15.   The way you hear every single word I say, not matter how important or not it is and you remember them all

16.   I like you. In case you couldn’t tell
