The Power of 3...

So...it's been a while since I posted last! Sorry!

First off, my wonderfully lovely aunt Abby tagged me in a fun little "get to know you" thing a while back, and so first I'm gonna fill that out, then we'll see what else I have time for... :-)

3 Joys...

Snowboarding on fresh powder while rockin out to my favorite jams.

When there's a thunderstorm outside and I can just curl up in the covers and read a great book.

(It's hard to pick just three!!!)

Getting letters from my best friend in Tijuana. The mail takes forever to get to him and to get to me when he has the time to write, so when I do get that letter, it brings tears of pure joy to my face.

3 Fears...

The Dark. I suppose it's not really the dark itself but what's in it. And I have a very active imagination and so when those lights go off and I'm all alone, I can really freak myself out. :-\

Avalanches! I will probably never be caught in one (hopefully) unless I get that good at snowboarding that I can go in the back country, but thats not happening for a while. They're just wicked crazy, but I'm sure they're cool to watch.

Cougars. Pretty sure I wouldn't wanna be attacked from behind and ripped to shreds by a giant cat. My cat from TN has attacked me for no reason, enough for me to have a taste of what a mountain lion can do.

I have a few other fears worth mentioning, but not explaining--germ warfare, tornados, broken bones/sprains...

3 Obsessions...

Traveling!!!! OHHHH MANNN do I wanna travel. ALL OVER!!! Istanbul, Europe, Australia, Romania, India, Egypt, Canada, Peru...Oh goodness it just goes on and on. Abby, we should travel TOGETHER!

Frank Sinatra. He is AMAZING. I love his voice, he has classic good looks, and he's a pretty good actor too. I could listen to him anyday and I'm pretty sure I have more memorabilia of him than anyone I know.

Shopping. I'm shopping even when I dont have money. I love a good deal, and I usually can't pass it up. Who can really? But I mean, its pretty bad. The most I've spent on myself in one shopping trip is about 500 bucks. Hm.. yeah.. you might call it an addiction. No es bueno. :-)

3 Goals...

To travel the world and learn all its history I can. After all, when we die, thats all we take with us--our knowledge. No money, clothes... Plus there are soooo many beautiful places in the world.

To get a wicked awesome degree! I can't believe how stoked I am about getting an education this school year. I'm gonna kick some serious rear too.

To be trilingual. That'd be so tight. I think I'm gonna shoot for Italian and German or something. Maybe Spanish. We'll see. :-)

3 Surprising Facts About Me...

Some people already know this, but its still kinda surprising in a weird way--I still have a baby tooth that I haven't lost. And the permanent one is lying in my gums in the front. I'll never lose it. And the permanent one will always stay where it is.

I snuck into the boys' on-campus dorms at BYUI my first year, at 2 am. Me and 3 other guys watched the 40 yr old virgin, and hung out till about 530 or 6. Hm...yeah...if I would've been caught... haha.

I am pretty obsessed with the human body and how it works. That subject usually occupies my mind about 65% of the day. Lucky for me, I can multi-task and think about other things too. haha.


I think that about does it! Hope you all enjoyed that. Feel free to do it too. It's pretty fun. Thanks Abby!

Unfortunately, I dont have anymore time cuz I have to clean and stuff. But...hopefully I'll be better about this...
