i've been tagged

Ash tagged me, so here it goes...

10 years ago:
I was 11. Awkward age for most people. 6th grade...I'd finally started venturing away from wearing only t-shirts and jeans all the time, and started dressing like a girl.---which was also the point when i started caring what other people thought, and thus started the horrific trend of low self esteem (aka pride issues) that would follow me through middle school and high school. I was playing a lot of sports--and was a lead in the school play. Let's see---i was doing year round swim team, playing rec-basketball, select softball, and had yet to discover my love for volleyball.
Oh, and I had a secret admirer on valentine's day---not kidding--i literally got a big construction shaped heart in my locker with a note glued too it. It was exciting---and the next year, he would become my "boyfriend". haha this makes me giggle.

Things on my To-Do List for Today:
It's night time, so here's my to-do list for tomorrow (tuesday)---get up, shower, nanny, american eagle orientation, dinner w/ brother, homegroup, homework, sleep.

What I would do if I suddenly became a BILLIONAIRE!!
I really can't even fathom this---but as said my many other people---give lots of money to church; buy things for the people i love; travel the world; buy really good photography equipment and use that and the travel to publish a book....if my photos were good; start a magazine for teenage girls similar to Relevant and Radiant; that's all for now...i don't know what else.

3 of my baD HAbiTS:
1. instead of biting my fingernails, i pick at my cuticles
2. i'm the worst procrastinator in the world (like now, for example)
3. my room and car are frequently messy---not because i don't mind messiness, because it actually really bothers me, but because i get overwhelmed by all of the crap and don't know where to start so i just don't pick it up at all.

5 jobs I have had:
1. volunteer at church once a week ( i don't really know if that counts as a job, but i don't really have 5
2. nanny (current)---and i will soon start at American Eagle in Highland Village
3. Fitness Center staff at DBU
4. Lifeway Christian Store
5. Lifeguard

5 things people don't know about me:
1. after the 1996 olympics, i became obsessed with gymnastics even more than i already was and had convinced myself and tried to convince everyone else that i was going to be in the next olympics as a gymnast
2. at night i cannot be hot---i sleep with a fan on in the winter---and i sleep with 3 pillows surrounding me
3. people close to me know this---it's pretty lame, but there's always a deeper meaning behind the music i listen to. i have playlists that always seem to help me think about things on a deeper level, playlists for angry days, playlists for beautiful days, etc.
4. when i was in high school i made a list of things i wanted to do before i was 30---one of the things was break a legit bone---not just fingers (which is lame)---my wish came true when i broke my elbow my freshman year of college on my first day of skiing during winter break
5. I've had the fever to travel the world for as long as i can remember---and being able to travel when my parents were in Italy fed that even more---to the point where now I'd rather save money to go on trips and live on ramin then buy actual food.

I'm tagging----people who have already done this, or been tagged because i have no one else to tag---ash, robin, brother, steph orr, steph stanford, alyssa, blair (even though she never updates her blog), angela, and leanne!

love you!
have a wonderful night :)
