Its me, myself and I time! :)
1) When you're feeling down, what do you do to pick yourself up?
I like to turn my music up really loud and dance around the room. Occasionally you can find me singing into a hairbrush. :) It makes me smile and my mood instantly lifts.
2) If you had to live in a different time period which would you prefer?
To be completely honest i would have loved to grow up in the time my grandpa and grandma did. Granted they were born during the great depression I still would have liked to have been there. I feel as if I would have learned so much about life and how its the simple things that we have to enjoy. Not to worry about money. Just to think you made it through that with the people who love you the most would be amazing!
3) What is the most creative Halloween costume you've ever worn?
So no Halloween for this girl. It's my least favorite holiday. My favorite costume as a child though was a doctors costume. I LOVED IT!
4) Five weird things about you we wouldn't know without being told?
1. I love driving. I just love getting into my car and going for drives. It's great for clearing the mind.. and thinking things over.
2. I miss playing softball more and more everyday. I was a catcher!
3. I actually love doing laundry. I just put on some music and go to work! :)
4. I am a morning person. Weird huh?
5. I love college hockey. GO BULLDOGS!
5) What would you tell your 16-year-old self?
It's weird that you ask this. I am doing a project called Project 15. It consist of me asking the question 'What would you tell your 15-year-old self?'. I have to compile all the answers into a video or slideshow or something of that sort.
So what would I tell my 16-year-old self?
You're going to lose friends, you're going to gain friends. You will reach hard times, but you will get through them learning and growing even stronger than you are now. College isn't as bad as you think it will be. Those guys who picked on you in elementary and middle school meet karma in high school. You are going to fall in and out of "love", but let me tell you don't let it ruin your life. Some one will come into your life (even though I am still looking for that person). Listen to your mom and love your dad. Love your siblings, be true to your self. One last thing, don't lie. :)
1) What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?
Skydiving. I have a huge fear of heights. I don't think I could just JUMP out of an airplane. It's just not something that is on the top of my list of things to do.
2) If you had only six months left to live, what would you do with the time?
To be completely honest? I would give everyone that I have ever wanted a piece of my mind. After that, I would travel the world.. oh do I have endless money too? Haha. No but in all seriousness I think I would finish my bucket list. (check it out!) :D
3) If a front page news article was written on you, what would the headline be?
She's Done It Again.... I'm only messin'. I have no idea. Something to do with St. Jude's or photography? I have no idea! Anyone wanna make one up for me?
4) What is your biggest pet peeve?
Ooo!!! I work in a restaurant SO it absolutely drives me crazy when the money in the register is not all the same way and then all the slots are facing the same direction. I just go nuts! When I try to fix it... it just ends up all messy again! I mean how hard is it to make all the money you put in the till go the same way? Normally you are only putting one bill in there. AHHH!!! It drives me crazy just talking about it!
5) What is your favorite chick flick movie?
My Girl... is that a chick flick. :)
Or I'm sorry its a Nicholas Sparks book, but Last Song.
Ahh gotch ya! You thought I was going to say The Notebook, but no I didn't! Haha. Well that's a good one too, but not my favorite.
Join us?
It's great getting to know all of these wonderful people! I just love it!
So I am starting something new. I am going to start my own linkup party! It's going to be about sharing your happy place [or you know, things that make you happy]. I am going to run it every second Wednesday of each month! :) Let's see where this takes us! Please join in?
I am all about smiling and finding things that make ME happy. I have found that to be very difficult.
Reason:
I work with the public and I hate it 95% of the time. People that come into my work are the MOST DIFFICULT to work with. To be honest they aren't the brightest either. Now I want to add that not ALL of them are that way but MOST. Why do people always believe that they are numero uno and I shouldn't pay any mind to anyone else? I could go on and on, but I will stop there.
For the past couple of days I have been thinking that everything that is happening is the worst thing in the world. Probably not the best attitude, but I'll get over it.
Just these past few hours I've sat down and tried to make a list of everything that makes me happy and I want to share a few of those with you. :)
1. My dog Ellie
Yes this crazy dog makes me the happiest person in the world.
2. My Family
At times I will go crazy mad because of this family, but they do make me happy.
3. Being myself
I'm all about being yourself 100% of the time.
4. Friends
I would go insane without my friends.
So now that I've shared a couple of things with you.. how about you share a couple things with me? They could be anything in the world OR the could be exactly what I have. Let me know. :) Link up with me and show everyone! :D
1. What is your biggest phobia?
I can think of two that top my list. It would be dying and small spaces. I am deathly afraid of small spaces. [Weird?] Yes, claustrophobic. I was in an elevator once and it stopped mid-floor and I FREAKED out. I started to cry and from then on I don't like small spaces. Even sometimes snuggling into bed makes me squirm and freak out. FYI: I still ride elevators, but its tough. I am also afraid to die. There are so many different things out there saying what it's like after life. I believe that there is a heaven and everyone's heaven is different. [My Heaven] I am just afraid to die.
2. If you could relive any day of your life, what would it be and why?
I would want to relive the day my Dad told my family that we were moving ~560 miles (10 hours) away from my hometown, my family and my friends. I would do everything in my power as a ten year old to convince him that we shouldn't and it would be a bad thing. Even thought I have met some GREAT people since I've been here, but I still would have liked living in Grand Rapids my whole childhood.
3. If you could choose to stay a certain age forever, what age would it be?
Well since I haven't even lived to be 25 yet I can't say I have reached an age to where I would like to stay forever. :)
4. Which celebrity do you get mistaken for?
When I had my long hair, I could do a really good impression of the girl from the grudge (never seen the movie though). So people thought I was her. NO LIE!
5. What songs are included on the soundtrack to your life?
Lullaby - Chase Coy
Two People Feel In Love - Brad Paisley
Little Moments - Brad Paisley
Old Time Rock & Roll - Bob Segar (My Family's Jam!!)
Look on my side bar for the link to the PARTY!!
