Day late and a dollar short. Literally.

I'm late. I said I'd do this yesterday. Instead I ate free Chick-fil-a chicken nuggets and watched Modern Family. I don't regret it at all. I also considered scratching this whole thing altogether. I don't know what I was thinking. Lets try this out for one day and see how it goes.

Day 1 - recent picture of you and 15 interesting facts about yourself



This is me and Vera (BFF Savannah's new puppy) over Christmas Break.

1. I'm petrified of grasshoppers. And actually any bug or thing that can crawl. Even ants!
2. I had my cell phone stolen in 9th grade. My mom left a ransom message on my voice mail. I think I paid some money to get it back. The trade took place in a bathroom stall with a scary Black girl. I left school crying. But at least I had my phone back and I have never left anything unlocked again.
3. I met Elder L. Tom Perry last summer. He came to my BYU Single's ward to check out how things are done in these parts.
4. I am terrible at writing thank you cards. But when I do, I write it all out beforehand on separate paper or on the computer. That actually goes for any kind of card, not just thank you's.
5. I played in the Bell Choir in 4th grade. I took it very seriously, thankyouverymuch.
6. I used to throw away pennies when I found them while cleaning my room.
7. The Lifetime channel made a movie about the cheerleading scandal that took place at my rival high school.
8. One time I was a bag of jelly beans for halloween. Also a cell phone. And maybe the Y2K bug.
9. I plagiarized a book report in 3rd grade. I just wrote verbatim what the back cover said. Oops.
10. I have never seen the LOTR movies. Maybe only a few clips of each.
11. I think I get asked weekly, if not daily, what my ethnicity is. Most of the time people guess Korean, Japanese, Polynesian, or Phillipino but never Hispanic. I go with it, obviously. (one time I memorized the state fish/bird of Hawaii to recite to someone so they actually believed I was Hawaiian. Awesome)
12. I love participating in research studies on campus. IT'S SO EXCITING. In fact I'm late for one as we speak.
13. One summer I had a hair wrap thread thing ( the kind you get on the beach somewhere cool on vacation) on a few strands of my hair, and instead of patiently trying to take it out I just cut the piece of hair off. At the root. You can imagine how sexy I looked.
14. I made a Build-A-Bear on my 20th birthday. FOR FREE! It was National Hug a Bear day and OF COURSE I subscribed to their emails to find out such a thing .
15. I joined FFA my senior year of high school to better my chances of scholarships. I even competed at one of their FFA shows and wore the navy blue jacket and everything.

Wasn't this fun?
