I can’t believe that I have now done 2 surveys in one week!  These are the only 2 surveys I’ve ever done online, but I couldn’t disappoint Allison. 🙂  Here ya’re…

1. Who were your best friends?  I’m still the same way I’ve always been– many friends, but I don’t really claim to have BEST friends.  I was the closest to Sarah Jolley my Junior year and though, I had many GOOD friends, I don’t think I had a “Best” friend while at Wright…

2.What sports did you play?  Soccer, though not well.

3. What kind of car did you drive? ’76 Mercedes or Suburban (family vehicles)

4. It’s Friday night, where were you?  Depends on which school I was at… Football game, Soccer, Play Practice, Ultimate, With Heritage people, at home…

5-10. Were you a party animal? Were you considered a flirt? Were you in band, orchestra, or choir?  Were you a nerd?  Did you get suspended/expelled?  Can you sing the fight song?
no.

11. Who were your favorite teachers? Mrs. Cox

12. Where did you sit during lunch? Can’t even remember–too many schools–I know who with, but not where…

15. Did you go to Prom? Yes–to “Banquet”

16. If you could go back and do it over, would you? Try NO…

17. What do you remember most about graduation? A group of us girls got into a fight about how the song we were going to sing sounded too terrible to sing it in public for graduation (it sounded awful…) …the kicker was that it was called “Listen to Our Hearts” lol.  Also our principal read “Oh The Places You Will Go” by Dr. Suess.

18. What was your favorite class? Bible Class with Mrs. Vance or Economics with Mr. Biggs– “Don’t use Credit Cards– Postpone Consumption” –this was also where the idea of free land in Montana and the ranch called Tremacre was birthed. 🙂

21. Where did you go most often for lunch? Um….The cafeteria?

22. Have you gained weight since then?  What a dumb question… Yes, but don’t know how much–I lost weight in college, then have gained some back–don’t know the difference–maybe 7ish pounds or so??? I don’t know.

23. What did you do after graduation? I worked at a camp as a canteen girl, then went to college.

24. When did you graduate? 1997

4 places I’d rather be:

• Taking a nap.

4 places I like to shop: Amazon.com, Ebay, Marshalls, and Hand-me-downs…the jeans I’m wearing are hand-me-downs from a coworker who’d lost weight…gee…that’s a compliment…

AND IN COMBINATION WITH ANOTHER SURVEY, since you are on the edge of your seat with the excitement from this one already (sarcasm dripping)…

 

4 favorite places to be……..a state park in the fall, a cozy couch with a good book, anywhere next to Michael or zippy, a sushi restaurant

 

4 + 4 Favorite things to do…. camping in the fall, going to football games (or watching the Buckeyes play), watching plays or musicals, eating, watching movies, playing Ultimate Frisbee,sleeping, and playing ANY game with ANY victim…errr…volunteer.

Thing I wish I could do in the future… invent a game that was as popular as Monopoly, be on a game show, pay off my house, live life to the fullest because of Him!

Fun facts about my past…

• I went to 3 high schools in 4 years.
• In middle school, my mom gave me a home perm that fried off my hair where bangs would have been.  People started looking at my forehead when they were talking to me, so I had to cut bangs that covered the singed hairs.
•  I can still recite the lines to my middle school theatrical debut (haha) in Midsummer’s Night Dream as the Wall (yes, that was my character…), “In the same interlude, it doth befall, that I, One Snout by name, present a wall…”  Not very many people can say they were a wall (Snout) in a play.
•  In second grade (ONLY for competition’s sake), I memorized 2,000+ lines of poetry, and received a stuffed dodo bird as a reward.

4 random facts about my childhood… (Sent by my mom as I was trying to think of facts…)

• While a child, I wanted a band-aid so badly that I bit my toe in order to create a boo boo.
• Locked my mom out of the car in order to avoid discipline at a busy intersection at age 5.
• When I was 3 and was disciplined, I told my mom that she was “wasting my time.”
• After an argument with Ross, my mom made us say something nice about the other person.  I thought and quickly came up with, “Although I don’t always act like I love you, I really do.”  Ross thought and thought and thought and thought and thought and thought, and all he could come up with was, “Well… you keep yourself clean.”
  

I wonder why all of the facts from my mom above involve injury or discipline?  HMMMMmmmmm…perhaps I was a handful…

When tagging for this, I instantly (because of the nostalgic post) became reminded of the unathletic, awkward kid at a recess game being picked last–not saying that this relates to any of you, I just didn’t want to pick…plus, i love reading other’s blogs—SO, I TAG EVERYONE that wants to fill this out and hasn’t done so already:  Michelle, Allison, Amber, Amy, Ann Marie, Kerri, Brittany, Ben, Carrie, Michelle, Hannah, Molly, Shelley, Jamie, Julie, Brooke, Kelsey, Daniel, Krista, Katie, Kristen, Sara, Laura, Liz, Lucinda, Brooke, Bethany, Lynn, Melissa, Marla, Beth, Vianna, Rachel, Risha, Rebekah, Renee, Sarah, Emily, Joanna, Kelly, Jen, Susan, Megan, Lisa, Chrissy, Andrea, Dave, Christy, Maren, Katie,  Andrea,  Alex, Claudia, Abby, Andrea, Michael, Jason, Christopher, David, James, Matthew, John, Robert, Brian, Joseph, Jennifer, Jessica, Melissa, Heather, Amy, Sarah, Angela, Amanda, Michelle, Elizabeth (I also just added the 20 most popular names in 1978 too just in case I had forgotten someone—gives me a 70% chance that I’ll get them on this list, too…lol)… and ANYONE ELSE, I’ve missed accidentally, please feel free to join.  THE MORE THE MAREN-ER, I always say.  (actually, I don’t, it just fit seeing how I just listed all those names…)

 

Happy Wednesday, folks!
