i'm feeling: 
Ashley did this in her diary, so I figured, why not. (it’s not like I should be studying right now or anything…) here are 101 interesting facts… 1- my name is Brigitte, not Bridgette, Bridget, Brigette, or any other conceivable way of misspelling it 2- my dad is irish and my mom is french canadian (and hungarian), so they combined an irish name with the french spelling 3- I have a brother who is 18 and a sister who is 12 4- I love hanging out with my brother and I admire my sister for being so many things that I never was at her age 5- I love music 6- I listen to almost any kind of music, mostly not rap or country, but even then I’d have my exceptions… 7- my favorite stuff is indie rock, ska, or pop-punk, but really, I hate labels. 8- I’ve been going to concerts for about 6 years and I’ve seen almost all of my favorite bands, except the get up kids and the (now defunct) smiths 9- I’ve been a hanson fan for about 7 years. Yes, I am serious. 10- I’ve seen them 5 times (nyc twice, philadelphia, hershey park, continental arena), and met them once. 11- my secret dream has been to sing in a band, but I can’t sing to save my
