Tagged!!

Chelsey Brady Felman tagged me forever ago, and by forever I pretty much mean forever. Then Jess tagged me a few months ago so I thought I would untag myself here.

A: The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.
B: Each player answers the questions about themselves.
C: At the end of the post, the player then tags 3 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

10 years ago: I was in 6th in Mr. McNeils class. In fact, I remember at this particular time Mr. McNeil would let us go downstairs in the annex and watch on a HUGE screen t.v. the march madness basketball games...he was pretty much the greatest teacher ever.

5 things on my to-do list today:
(Today is Sunday and I don't really have to-do lists on Sunday so I'll write my to-do list from yesterday)
1. Go grocery shopping.
2. Do my homework for Monday and Tuesday
3. Find a children's book to read to my preschoolers and do an activity with next week.
4. Clean my room.
5. Do something fun.

5 Snacks I enjoy:
1. yogurt covered raisins.
2. popcorn with orange julius
3. bagel bites
4. brownies
5. ice cream

What I would do if I were suddenly made a billionaire:
Billionaire? wow, that's a lot of money. I would travel the world most definitely. Then who knows, that's just too much money to comprehend.

5 places I have lived:
1. Ashland, Oregon
2. Poitiers, France
3. Paris, France (but only for 7 weeks)
4. Provo, Utah
5. Future destination unknown.

5 jobs that I have had:
1. Newspaper route; gotta love it.
2. Cleaning Lois' hair shop...not my favorite job.
3. Teller at Rogue Federal Credit Union for about 4 years.
4. Student Services at BYU...coming up on 4 years.
5. Future job is hopefully an Elementary Teacher.

5 Things people don't know about me:
Hmmmm.
1. Although I have a hard time getting out of bed, I LOVE mornings. I love walking to school in the early morning when the sun is still coming up and it's really quiet outside. Especially if you've got the birds chirpping and it is warm outside...amazing.
2. I've always wanted to be an actress. I used to envy actors and actresses when I was little. I tried out the whole acting thing in high school for one school assignment and I actually did quite well and even had fellow classmates asking me to join drama--crazy I know. I have done absolutely nothing to pursue this interest.
3. I'm crooked. Most people don't notice, but once I point it out, it becomes quite obvious. One shoulder is significantly lower than the other (because of my fabulous back) so it always looks like I am leaning.
4. I have a couple strange phobias. They aren't significant phobias where I freak out or anything, but they are certainly things that bother me. I have a phobia of doors...it takes a lot for me to knock on doors...and yes I know I will need to get over that very quickly :) One time I had to meet with my professor and every time I went to go meet with him his door was closed...so instead of knocking (I knew he was in there), I would just turn around and leave. I did this three times before I had enough courage to knock on the door. Another strange phobia or weird thing that I do is when I eat in restaurants, or sit in a room, I have to have my back to the wall so I can see the rest of the room or restaurant...I'm one strange cookie.
5. Despite our many differences, my best friend Sarah Cate from first grade is still one of my best friends. We know each other too well to say the least.

I tag whoever wants to do this!

We are the champions...we are the champions (please sing)

After 4 years of battling it out in intramural co-ed tennis doubles, Jake and I finally came out with a win...and undefeated at that! This was our last chance at a victory seeing as how we are both seniors so it was pretty sweet to win. Tonight was our last match and we won 8-3 although I must say, they didn't exactly bring their A game. We played them last week and it we battled it out to barely win 9-7 so we were pretty surprised when we kicked their trash tonight. Thanks to Jake I finally got an intramural t-shirt! I definitely couldn't have won one of those on my own. I'll put a picture of my sweet shirt on here as soon as I get it. All I have to say now is "woooo hooooo!!!!!!"

BIRTHDAY!















I had a pretty sweet birthday. I got lots of phone calls and text messages from people wishing me a happy birthday. I guess all of that reminding helped people remember! I had lots of people over for some delicious dessert too. A lot of which we still have because we definitely made more dessert than we needed to. We also celebrated Dave's birthday seeing as how we are twins and share a birthday :) Unfortunately I came down with a bad cold the day after my birthday, perhaps from all the excitement, and spent most of my President's day in bed with a fever. On happier note, it was a fun birthday and here are some pics from the birthday bash.

red hair!



A long weekend with not much to do leads to some bored times and dying hair! I decided I needed a little bit of a change in my life so I dyed my hair red! It actually looks a lot less red in these pictures than what it is in real life but it is a lot of fun! Only a couple people noticed it at church though so maybe it isn't as dramatic as I thought...although, maybe they just didn't say anything because they thought it looked bad. Oh well, you can make your own opinion!
