1. My car is stuck in a snow bank in our driveway!
2. This time next year, I will be in the sunshine on the equator!
3. I have never seen the movie The Matrix.
4. My favorite number is 33.
5. In 6th grade, I placed first in the 50 & 100 yard dash.
6. I love to watch snow boarding (and X-games in general), tennis & football.
7. My guilty pleasure TV show is "Project Runway"...though I don't get to see it that often.
8. I own all 6 seasons of LOST. To those "haters" out there, I dare you to watch the first season start to finish & not get hooked!
9. My favorite colors are green, blue, & brown.
10. Hot spiced apple cider is one of the best underrated drinks on a cold, snowy night!
11. I took 3.5 years of Spanish & can recall very little. I spent 7 weeks in China, 1 month in Vietnam, 6 weeks in Kenya (split among 2 trips), & 7 days in Haiti (speak Creole) and I think I remember more words/phrases/songs from those places than my 3.5 years worth of Spanish!
12. I have 3 scars on my face, none of which have a cool scar story to go with them! All are a result of 3 very dumb things! My mom always told me that if I ever went missing she could at least describe me by all my scars (I have a lot)...sad day!
13. I'm a Disney addict. We even have a day in the office called "Disney Thursday" that involves just the girls in the office since they guys have the day off! (Crank up the Disney tunes!)
14. I love reading! (And I'm up for new material...so send suggestions my way)
15. I'm a huge fan of board games. Clue might possibly be the best board game out there!
16. Windows at night scare me. I can't stand to have blinds or curtains open once it gets dark out!
17. I love giraffes & have a lot of giraffe stuffed animals (given to me). But the one that means the most was a small bean bag giraffe that my mom sent to me my first semester of college during a really tough time. It came complete with an encouraging note! Both now sit in my room where I see them everyday. They'll be traveling to Kenya with me!
18. I can't sleep very well with complete quiet. I usually have to run a fan.
19. My favorite "sport" growing up was Capture the Flag. Yeah, they should have that in the Olympics!
20. Whenever I "dance around" with friends, I find myself doing moves that were taught to me by Katylynn Ivy Prenkert! Thanks KL for the tips! I can't pull them off quite as well as you!
21. I love working with high school students! Call me crazy, but it's the best!
22. My favorite actor is Matt Damon. My favorite actress is a toss-up between Reese Witherspoon & Sandra Bullock.
23. Growing up I loved the following shows (in no particular order): Duck Tales, Spiderman, Saved by the Bell, Boy Meets World, Growing Pains, Darkwing Duck, I Love Lucy, Dick Van Dyke, Fraggle Rock, & Gummy Bears (yeah, there was a show & it wasn't about the candy snack).
24. I like Swedish Fish.
25. This past year I got to check something off my "bucket list" when I saw The Lion King on Broadway (in Chicago)!
