Back to the Future Tag!

I tag everyone!

20 years ago:



I was 4 years old and wishing for a baby sister-which I got for Christmas, literally. I had short hair and enjoyed using all of the band aids on my stuffed animals and wearing lip stick on my feet.



10 years ago:
I was 14 years old and in 9th grade. I remember my sister and I wore the same shirt for picture day to freak our families out.



I had braces and was just figuring out how to do my hair and make up. I also was enrolled in a dance studio named Kasai and was involved in their competitive jazz dance team and ballet.



This year I sang at the Pop's Concert for my school- I sang 'Angel' by Sarah Mclachlin.



5 years ago:
I was 19 years old and in my second year of college taking Organic Chemistry which obviously changed the course of my life. I finally was starting to figure out how to overcome my eating disorders and lose the weight I had accumulated from them. I was getting really excited about starting research for my very first time- I don't remember much else other than studying a lot and I don't have any pictures either. In between these two times (20 years old) though I started considering modeling- although I needed to lose a few more pounds and I ran for Miss Pocatello...




and then I met Andy...



3 years ago:
I was 21 and was just barely going to get married to my cute sweet husband.



I also would graduate with my bachelors degree and move to Provo to start grad school.



So far this year:

I have run 2 10K's, a half marathon with another on the way and a marathon. I have continued to grow in-love with my sweet husband through our many hard times and accomplishments. Got to the point to where I think I will actually graduate in December with my Masters. Have had 2 different callings in my ward and watched my mom come out of her shell and start enjoying life.

Yesterday:
I had an upset stomach and was up all night sick. I ran 3 miles and did yoga. Worked a 10 hour day and baked 4 deserts.

Today:
I was recovering from my upset stomach. Found out the I should start writing a paper for publication in a chemistry journal. Worked another 10 hour day. Ate a lot and am looking forward to SYTYCD season finale.

Tomorrow:
I need to go to the gym and go to work. I also need to clean the house as our apt will be a hotel for the next week for family.

In the next year:
I hope to be graduated with my Masters and get a job that pays well enough for me to pay off the student loans I have accumulated. We hope to move somewhere so that Andy can also finish his degree without the complications we have been getting from BYU. We both hope to lose the weight we have gained due to this grad school experience and I hope to talk Andy into doing a triathlon with me if not a marathon:)

I think you are neat. I also think you are neat to have SO MANY old pictures of yourself! Do you carry around all your scrapbooks?
