10 years ago tag...

I have been meaning to post this for quite some time...I was waiting to get some pics of me scanned in from 8th grade and such but never had time so here ya go!



10 Years Ago: Ah- 8th grade. I was learning how to wear makeup and do my hair….and I had not yet had braces so my teeth were super nasty….I did not like Junior high


5 Things On My To-Do List Today: Well it’s 10pm Monday night…

1- Call my husband to come get me

2- Get ready for bed.

3- Pack lunches for tomorrow

4- Spend some time with my husband

5- Set alarm clock for tomorrow


Things I Would Do If I Were Suddenly Made A Billionaire:

Pay off all of our debt as well as our family’s debt and then put the rest into a savings account of some sort.


3 of my bad habits:
1- I am super sensitive about some things and feel left out or excluded or offended over some things really easy- for instance like if someone I thought was my friend doesn’t reply to me on facebook or not being tagged on blog- or my friends not adding me as their friends on their blogs- I know it is super silly- but I am really self conscience and so I get my feelings hurt really easy- on top of that I have hard time standing up for myself because I don’t want to be rude or hurt other people’s feelings- and then I feel bad whether I do or do not stand up for myself and then dwell on situations forever.

2- I whine a lot…I keep waiting for my husband to get sick of me but he just thinks it’s cute so I am grateful.

3- I am my own worst critic and am super hard on myself.


Places I have lived:
1- San Jose, CA- I was born here and don’t remember much

2- Sacramento, CA- we lived there until I was 8

3- Pocatello, ID- I spent most of my life here

4- Portland, OR- random 3 months in my life around the end of 6th grade

5- Vancouver, WA- the next random three months- the beginning of 7th grade and then we moved back to Pocatello

6- Provo, UT- currently living here


Jobs I have had:
1- Daycare Provider- helped my mom with her business from the age of 9-20

2- Teleperformance- worked in a telemarketing company for 2.5 months and hated every minute before my junior year of high school

3- Boxersize- I watched people’s kids and worked the cash register once in a while- it was nice because I got a free gym membership- during my junior year of high school

4- Lifeguard and Head lifeguard- I got a nice tan two summers in a row- my junior and senior year of high school.

5- Racine Law Firm- worked as a collector/secretary/paralegal- love d this job- I worked there from 2003-2005

6-Pharmaceutical research assistant- did this for a summer- the summer of 2004- it was fun and I learned a lot- and got paid great

7- Organic Chemistry research assistant- did this summer 2005 through the fall- the research was ok- the people in the lab were fun

8-Organic Chemistry tutor- did the fall of 2005- the first few months I was married- it was hard because I wanted to spend time with my husband instead

9- Grad student/TA/RA- summer 2006- present- yeah just trying to graduate now.


3 Things most people don't know about me:
1-A lot of people probably already know this but…I am a convert to the LDS church as of the fall of 2002

2- When I was five I already knew I wanted a bachelors, masters and PhD and I wanted to be a model, a singer, or a doctor

3- I never really planned on getting married or having children

I tag whoever wants to do this.

Sarah! Wow, I learned a lot about you, missy! I have a hard time believing your teeth were EVER nasty... you have the world's most beautiful smile now!

Hooray, a tag! I was unaware you are so diligent in doing tags. That's it, I'm tagging you every time. I always feel obligated to tag all my sisters/cousins in law first, but they take a good month to ever respond. So that's it, you're my new gal! And, like Mary, I can't believe you ever had bad teeth. If you ever wanted to compare pre-braces teeth, mine would beat yours EVERY time, trust me!
