Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now!

I'm finally answering that tagging you gave me, Mom.

1. Where was I 10 years ago?

I was a first-grader, and had just moved into our new house. I was best-friends with Leah Jennings and Timmy Matthews from church, and Brittany Metallo and Killian Ross from Indian Plains Elementary School. My teacher was Mrs. Saul and she had a big thing for apples. Every time we did a good thing, we got an apple to put on our chart and a three-apple-day awarded you a treat or sticker or toy at the end of the day. I almost always got a 5 apple day and ALWAYS chose a Tootsie Roll. Mrs. Saul also really liked writing and I wrote upwards of twenty stories that year, including "Batty and Spotty (Get Lost!)" which won the Young Author's award that year and was preformed hilariously by the WVHS drama club. (As a high schooler, I can promise that's one of the VERY FEW things club members actually do. Well, that and fundraising.) I had short hair, no glasses, and buck-teeth.

2. What's on my to do list today?

Do Homework and go to mutual. The rest is really just on my "to dream of doing" list. We're making "Boo Blocks" tonight. :)


3. What if I was a billionaire?

I'd go to college! :D
I'd buy
Adobe Flash Animation Program or perhaps hire someone to find me what really is the best in animation programs if that's not.
I'd buy everything for my Lion King collection.
I'd buy a
heifer or two to donate...or a thousand. :)
I'd go on a cruise, go to France, go to Canada, or do all three.
I'd plan my future.
I'd go Christmas Shopping!


4. Places I have lived:

1. Naperville, Illinois
2. Aurora, Illinois.

OH YEAH BABY, I'M LIVING IT UP.


5. Snacks I like:

You kidding? I'm a Hendricks girl! You'd be hard pressed to find a snack we don't like.
I'd probably put anything with chocolate or cheese (seperate, thank you very much...unless it's cheesecake!) on the list though.


6. Three bad habits:

1 - Having ridiculous lists of productive things and then getting too distracted to actually do anything about it.

2 - Forgetfulness

3 - Procrastination


----

WHAT WHY AREN'T MY WORDS ALL COLORFUL?
Welll.....they could be. But then I would never do my homework, see, as that question about the to-do list reminded me I do NOT have all hours to do it today.
(However, that means there may be more typos, as coloring at the end also serves as a lovely form of proof-reading.)

And with that, the actual post-with-a-purpose I had for today is being put off, yet again. :)

"Mama I'm a Big Girl Now!" can be found on the Hairspray Soundtrack

  2. Brittanie!! Weren't we in more grades than just first, too? I distinctly remember you in my older classes. :D

    I'm fantastic. Busy and a bit stressed, but fantastic nonetheless. And I can't believe you found me HERE of all places!

    How are you?
