100 Things About Me - Part Four (Finally!)

76. I have always had blond hair – except when I was a baby through age three; I was completely bald, with just a little reddish-blond fuzz.

77. Though I’ve always heard it, I am learning that it’s true you get wiser with age.

78. I am over halfway through with my summer master’s classes. I have never worked so hard in school in my entire life.

79. After my master’s I want to take a Spanish class or a photography class – or both.

80. I want a new and fabulous camera that takes amazing pictures. Better start saving my pennies now.

81. I never thought I would say this, but I would consider being a college professor someday. I think it would be really fun to teach a writing or introductory English class.

82. Estes Park, CO is another one of my favorite places in the world. It is always beautiful no matter what season you go. I just love the views, the river walk, the elk spotting, and just being up in the mountains.


83. I get car sick on long trips. I also can’t read in the car – ever.

84. I am not technology savvy. That’s why I married a web developer. ;)

85. I am afraid of the dark. 

86. I hate scary movies and have never been able to watch them. I think I am weird because while many think they are so entertaining, I find them upsetting and disturbing. I still freak myself out at night after watching Scream in 7th grade. Like I said in Part Two, I’m not very brave.

87. I am an animal lover. I bet you are shocked at that one. ; )

88. When I was in middle school I wanted to be an E.R. doctor. I think it had something to do with my obsession with the show E.R.

89. When I was in 8th grade I got to go be a helper in a kindergarten classroom for as an elective, and that is when I decided I wanted to be a teacher. Though one of my favorite childhood activities was playing school; I was the oldest, so I had to be the teacher. Sorry M.

90. I have never broken a bone….

91. …but I did dislocate my hip in 10th grade in drill team doing a funky sliding into a split at an angle move -don't know the technical term.

92. I have to eat every few hours. Otherwise I get really shaky, nauseous, and grumpy. My family knows that when I say I have to eat now, I really do have to eat now!

93. I sometimes live for Saturday mornings when I get to sleep in (like right now). I have noticed though, that I can’t sleep past 10:00 like I used to be able to do.

94. I can’t wait to be a mom someday. A real mom. To real babies – not furry ones. But I do love me some furry babies.


95. I feel so blessed that it has just been the hubby and I (well, and the furry children) for these first few years of our married life. We are so enjoying our time before kiddos.

96. I am (sort of) learning Italian right now – very basic words. My favorite phrase? Vorrei qualche gelato! (I would like some gelato!)

97. Every summer I go and tutor in urban school summer programs (areas where children face and struggle with poverty) where they are focusing on reviewing skills and content from the previous year and mainly focusing on reading skills. It is something I am good at and passionate about because it has to do with teaching and reading. It puts me in the right frame of mind to serve, and it eases me back into school too; I usually do this the end of July right before I go back to prep for the school year. It also reminds me why I don’t teach elementary school.:) But it is still so much fun to just go sit and read with the little ones.

98. Growing up I always wanted to have a red pickup truck. I’m not entirely sure why, though my Papa drove a truck, and I loved to ride along with him.

99. I am a reality TV lover - The Bachelorette, Housewives of OC, anything on HGTV...

100! I want to become a better blogger, and I am inspired by all the amazing and creative ones out there!!
