I don't have many people to tag, so I'll just answer my questions and then give all of those who read some questions to think about.
My 11 Questions:
1.What song(s) lyrics best describe you/your life?
'Cos I
dont know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand
upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood.
Missy
Higgins - Where I Stood
2. What is the biggest accomplishment thus far in your life?
Becoming a mother. I
have always, always, wanted to be a mother. I never thought that it would
happen as soon as it did, but I am so blessed and wouldn’t change it for
anything. I have learned something new from the very first day that my little
man was born. He never ceases to amaze me.
3. You could be any age again, what age would you be?
Hmm.. Probably 16 or
17. I’d be back in high school. I would love to be able to relive it. I loved
the sports; whether I was playing them or watching them, it was always fun. I
miss being able to do anything and not really having consequences. I didn’t
have to work a ‘real’ job, school was fun for the most part, even though we
said there was nothing to do in Spooner we always found something to do. It was
a lot more relaxing. But I do have to add that I am content with 22. Sure,
everything isn’t going perfect and I would love to change some things, but I am
learning and isn’t that what you’re supposed to do in life?
4. What's your greatest strength?
My greatest strength is my determination (in some things) For example. I am determined to give my son a great life. I won't stop until I have succeeded. It's as simple as that.
What’s your greatest weakness?
My greatest weakness is that I forgive far to easily.
5. What goal do you
want to accomplish within the next five years?
Graduate college. It
will be hard for me. I have gotten so far and have spent far too much money to
stop and go for something else. I am pursuing my degree in Elementary Education
through the Distance Learning program at UW-Superior. I actually don’t start
until summer, but it is in motion. I am not sure that teaching is what I want
to do for the rest of my life, but I figure if I finish my degree I can
(hopefully) get a job and see how I am feeling after a year or two and go from
there.
& because I know
that I can and will graduate with a few years of my five to spare, I would also
like to walk the 3-day Susan G Komen for the cure! http://ww5.komen.org/
6. Why do you blog?
My mind is constantly
in motion so it’s nice to have an outlet. I have been slacking though… Let’s
hope I can stay a little more up to date!
7. Are you right brain vs. left brain?
I don’t really know to
be honest, but if I had to pick I would say I’m probably more right brain. I am
a pretty visual person.
8. What's your biggest fear?
My biggest fear is Aidyn
dying before me. I cannot imagine what I would do with myself if I lost him. I
can’t say anything else about it… It hurts thinking about it.
9. If you could live in any time period, what time period
would that be?
The Roaring 20’s. I
don’t know why… They seemed to enjoy themselves J
10. What's your favorite
quote(s)?
I LOVE quotes! There are so many that I could choose from,
but today these are my favorite two.
The most important
thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother – Theodore Hesburgh
“Sometimes”, said Pooh,
“the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.”
11. What's your favorite activity?
Playing outside with
Aidyn!!! I figured this out yesterday. He is so curious about everything. It is
fun to watch. It is going to be so fun taking him places this summer!! The Zoo,
the aquarium, the park, anywhere fun! If you have any suggestions on where to
take him please let me know J
11 Random Things about Myself
1. I have a birth mark the size of a dime under my chin.
Anyone who knows me has seen it. I’m not a huge fan of it… Ya ya I know it’s
what makes me, me.
2. I am super afraid of suffocating! I cringe just thinking about
it…
3. I will give people a 2nd, 3rd, 18th, (you get the point)
chance to prove themselves to me. It has caused a lot of pain, but until I can
let go I hang on for dear life.
4. Chewing tobacco disgusts me. I have never been a fan of
it, but after my Dad was diagnosed with Bladder cancer because of it, when I
see someone chewing I make sure they know how I feel about it.
5. The one job I know I would love and be really great at is
being a stay at home mommy. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like I will be able
to do that anytime soon.
6. I wanted to be a veterinarian when I was little. I still
love animals, but I could never put one out of its misery if you know what I mean
L
7. I am SO excited to get married. It doesn’t look like it
is in the cards for me any time soon, so I am living through my friends and
helping them plan their weddings that I am SO lucky to be a part of!
8. One of my favorite places (that I sadly don’t go to much
anymore) is Grandma Harriet’s farm in Spooner. I used to be there all the time
when I was little. My Dad used to take me to look at the babies every year
right after they were all born J
or I would play in the chicken coop with Megan and Ben. Good times..
9. I would do anything for my son. I mean anything. He is my
heart.
10. I have one tattoo
on my left forearm. kaikuahine. It
means sister in Polynesian. My brother has his in the same place saying
brother. 1. No we are not Polynesian. 2.
We have no connection to the language. 3. We liked the way it looked, and we
know the meaning and that is what is important to us.
11. I hate
exercising. I can’t get myself motivated to do it. It’s so nice out, I’m going
to put on my jogging shoes and go for a jog…. Ick. I can think of much better things to do when
it is nice out than to run. I know I need to start working out though. So I am
looking in to more creative ways to get in shape…
Here are just a few questions for you to think about.
1. What is one thing that you would change in this world?
2. What is your definition of happiness?
3. What are three things that you want to teach your children?
Cheers & Love
