Embracing the chaos one day at a time. A blog about my adventures in food, photography, fitness and fun.

I’ve Been Tagged

8 Comments

Well, word on the street is that someone must be checking out this little blog of mine, because the lovely Kim from Tranquil Dreams tagged me to participate in some fun.

THE RULES
1. Post these rules. 
2. Post a photo of yourself and eleven random facts about you. 
3. Answer the questions given to you in the tagger’s post. 
4. Create eleven new questions and tag new people to answer them.

5. Go to their blog/Twitter and let them know they’ve been tagged.

1. Post these rules.  Done.

2. Post a photo of yourself and eleven random facts about you.

1. Seriously – what is up with my hair in this picture? I look like Alfalfa from The Little Rascals.

2. I am obsessed with Owls. I have owl decorations all over my house. My husband has banned me from buying anything else owl themed, but everybody buys me owl gifts, so the joke’s on him. HAHA!

3. I speak fluent Spanish, pretty decent French, and a little Italian. This is not as impressive as it seems, since they are basically all the same language with different accents.

4. My parents got divorced when I was 4 and I grew up with my Mom. She’s the best mom ever by the way! (In case she’s reading this) 😀

5. In high school I worked as a tour guide at a living historical farm.

6. My senior year, I played Maria in our high school musical, The Sound of Music.

7. I started my first year of college as a Vocal Performance major, and eventually changed to International Business when I realized that auditions made me so nervous I almost barfed every time.

8. I’d like to get back into doing community theater but I’m scared. (See #7 re: Auditions).

9. I’ve done a TON of waitressing and bartending in my day. I actually liked it.  Please tip your servers, they work hard and remember, they handle your food. 😉

10. I’m planning a diving trip to Roatan, Honduras in November!

11. I try, but I’m not very good with children. Luckily for them, I don’t have any of my own.

 

3. Answer the questions given to you in the tagger’s post. 

1. What’s your favorite childhood show? Reading Rainbow

2. Pokemon or Digimon? Pikachu is from Pokemon right? Ok then – Pokemon. Can you tell I’m not an expert?

3. Disney or Studio Ghibli? I am going to go with Disney considering I had to Google Studio Ghibli!  haha

4. Vin Diesel or The Rock/Dwayne Johnson (whichever you prefer to call him?) Vin Diesel

5. Yes or no to True Blood? Yes

6. Vampires or Werewolves? Vampires. I have an aversion to excessive body hair.

7. What’s the most awesome Disney Princess? Ariel

8. What’s your favorite dessert? Homemade Rice Krispies Treats

9. Do you have the habit of checking out the source material before or after a movie adaptation? Or maybe even never check it out? Why? I try to always read the book first, but I don’t know why since I am usually always disappointed by the movie adaptation. Maybe I will try it the other way around next time.

10. Do you like to watch trailers or avoid them? I watch them.

11. Are you happy that these questions are over? No because now I have to make up 11 new ones!

4. Create eleven new questions and tag new people to answer them.

1. What is your favorite ice cream flavor?

2. Name 3 places you have never been that you want to visit.

3. What is the first album/tape/cd you ever purchased?

4. Do you eat raw oysters?

5. What is your favorite outdoor sport or activity? (Not to watch but to participate in)

6. Name one thing you are afraid of.

7. Name one thing that you are pretty awesome at.

8. Do you get road rage?

9. Name the first song that pops into your head.

10. Sweet or salty?

11. Name one movie you could watch over and over again and never get tired of it.

5. Go to their blog/Twitter and let them know they’ve been tagged.

Happily married, pets, no kids. Relatively boring desk job. I blog to nurture my creativity and have a little fun. I love cooking, taking pictures, and general shenanigans.
