10 on Tuesdays {2}

****Edit: I fixed the link again for my button so please tell me if it works when you try to copy the code. I would appreciate it!!****

Before you delve head first into my post, please take a moment and head over to Brittany's page to see her 100th post. She is doing an amazing giveaway that I *really* hope to win!

I think Tuesday is going to be the worst day of the week, but I do look forward to Ten on Tuesday! Feel free to head over to Roots and Rings to see her answers and take part too!



1. What accomplishment are you most proud of?
Hmmm.. I guess I would say obtaining a 4.0 one semester at my community college. Now I think 4.0 is impressive in itself but add in that it was 6 classes and I was working full time. Let's talk about how rough that was. I don't think I was ever so proud or relieved when that semester was over.

2. How much did you weigh when you were born?
I was a big baby. 9 lbs and either 6 or 8 oz. I forget. I was one and my Princess was the other. Big babies are the best. Not for the mothers I assume. My mom never fails to remind me I was like "pushing out a watermelon" Awesome mom, thanks. She got her tubes tied within days of having me. I feel slightly offended but then I like to think she knew she couldn't have a more perfect daughter so she wouldn't want them to feel bad... hey whatever makes me feel better right? 8)

3. What is your favorite perfume?
Mmm Pink Sugar & DKNY Delicious (the red one!) They smell scrumptious.

4. How many siblings do you have?
Just one older sister.

5. How many children would you like to have? (Or how many do you have?)
Uhmm zero. Kid-less for me is the way to be. I have 1 furbaby. That is all.

6. What’s the best class you took in college?
I'm still in college (*sigh*) so I guess up until this point my favorite for content wise, I'd pick Counseling Theories. I love the professor and the info was great to learn. This class kicked my butt though, it was a 400 level course. As far as fun wise, I'd say when I took Espanol 1 at my community college. The teacher was hilarious, the class was so simple, & I sat in the back with 5 other people and we had a blast being stupid and enjoying ourselves. We goofed off more than we learned and I still managed to ace it. For 2 classes, we spent them at a mexican restaurant down the road while the professor did tequila shots with other students. That is getting your money worth.

7. What was your favorite game to play when you were a child?
Depends on what type of game. Board game? Clue. & I was always Miss Scarlet. Also Candy Land. Who didn't love that game?!

Playing outside would be Ghosts in the Graveyard and Kick the Can. I spent many of hours playing these with friends.

8. What character on Friends are you most like?
Hmm this is hard. Probably Monica because I love to cook like her though the cleaning thing? Negative.

9. Are you a phone person? (ie: Do you like talking on the phone?)
Nope. I use to be the girl in middle school who spent HOURS on the phone with the people I just spent all day with. I think I stock piled enough hours on the phone then to span the rest of my life time. I thank God for texting.

10. What was the best vacation you ever took?
Easily, Los Angeles. It was my first cross country trip with my favorite man in the world. 10 days to do whatever we wanted, see everything, and eat until our hearts were content. Plus I spent my birthday at Disney(first time visitor!) and waited over an hour to get my pic taken with Tinkerbell. It was serious business. I think I left my heart in Cali.

My husband was 11 pounds. UGH.

Seems to be a common answer about the phones. We all went from chatty jr. highers to technology crazed adults!

Kell said...

Kid-less for me too.. way to go! Haha

Christina said...

Hmm. that link isn't working to copy either.. thats odd. I thought I did copy it off your page before too. I wonder whats going on because thats the code I use and it works perfect for me. Maybe I'll email you the code again and make sure that that isnt your problem.

1. I am seriously impressed with your life. 4.0 + full time school and job? I couldn't even handle school full time. Keep it up!

2. I loled so hard at this. I'd probably get my tubes tied after a 9 pound baby too! You're probably right.. she knew she couldn't top you!

7. bahahah kick the can! I forget so many things about my childhood!

9. Texting is so great. Sometimes you just don't want to deal with small talk. Texting allows you to get right to the point!

10. We'll take good care of your heart till you get back :)

Tinkerbell! I have always wanted my photo with her but we go to WDW so she's never a charachter there. Well until recently which now I realized I missed my opportunity with her this past December. Oh well!

Also - 4.0 is extremely impressive. Especially since you worked full time too. I find I do better in school when my schedule is jam packed. Funny how that is!
