2006-11-29T09:51:00.000-08:00

My brain frying.

I should have done my structure homework, worked on my hydro lab, started working on my presentation for structure and at least started my research paper for sociology... this is going to be a busy week.

Worst family vacation

2006-11-20T09:58:00.000-08:00

I can't think of any trips that could be considered a worst trip. There was one camping trip where we saw bears but nothing happened so it was just cool.

Animal

2006-11-20T09:57:00.000-08:00

According to my roommates I am a racoon. Why? I do not know, but it's ok because my other roommate is an ostrich

wierdest member of my family

2006-11-15T09:58:00.000-08:00

I have one uncle that has basically disapeared. We never see him and I don't think he likes us. Does that make him the weird one or the rest of us??

favorite childhood toy

2006-11-13T09:59:00.000-08:00

I don't know if it can be classified as a toy but my favorite thing to do a child during the summers was to play on this big yellow slide at the cabins next door. We'd slide down every possible way, upside down, sideways, trian, backwards, run up it, etc. and the list goes on. Although the best part of the slide was the sand, my cousin and I spent hours making tunnels and holes, and when the sandbox got too small for our imaginations we moved to the beach. so much fun

When do I start listening to Christmas music?

2006-11-10T09:59:00.000-08:00

I have been taught all my life that we don't listen to Christmas music until december BUT I must admit that on wednesday at work I listened to christmas music. It went against everything I've been taught but it was the only channel I could get on the radio.

Kellen and attention, Why?

2006-11-08T09:54:00.000-08:00

humm... may he's just the kind of guy who others are drawn to. A natural vibe. But who knows lets ask Kellen.

worst date

2006-11-06T09:48:00.000-08:00

i thruthfully can't think of one, I must have purged it from my memory.

good questions

2006-11-06T09:44:00.000-08:00

If you could classify yourself as any kind of animal what would it be?

can't think of any other good ones right now

best practical joke

2006-11-01T10:00:00.000-08:00

I can't think of any good practical joke I've done most of the time i'm on the recieving end.

halloween costume

2006-11-01T09:59:00.000-08:00

I am not the least bit creative and went as a geologist

Worst hair cut

2006-10-27T09:53:00.000-07:00

so... when I was seven i had a mushroom cut, that was bad but at the time it was the style (at least that's what I tell myself). But my family had just moved to the Netherlands and my mom asked my dad to take me to get a hair cut. Well, he took me and my brothers to the barber who thought I was a boy and I got a very very short boy cut. I was not impressed, and neither was my mother.

Joke

2006-10-18T09:55:00.000-07:00

Why did Dracula's Mom give him cough syrup?
Because Dracula was coffin!
What is another name for a sleeping skeleton?
Lazy bones!

Language

2006-10-17T19:49:00.000-07:00

I speak fluent Canadian and a bit of broken American

Favorite Restaurant

2006-10-13T10:05:00.000-07:00

The Residence Tavern no doubt is my favorite restaurant. Amazing ribs and grilled chicken, the baked potatoes are out of this world and the dressing on the side salad is devine. And to top it off the service is excelent!

First Love

2006-10-11T09:54:00.000-07:00

I'm pretty sure his name was Eric, we were five years old and we were trouble. I don't know if I was in love with him or the fun we had together... but what can you expect from young love? :)

Most Scared Moment

2006-10-09T09:57:00.000-07:00

I think the most scared I've ever been was late one night when I was walking home. My imagination runs wild and Some guy runs past me twice dressed all in black and I heard banging in the alley. Also a dog can running out and barking into a front yard when I walked past. My cell phone died and I walked past a car and there was an old man siting in the car who looked dead.
Nothing happened but i was very scared.

favorite geologic specimen

2006-10-04T09:56:00.000-07:00

I love mica, i think my favorite specimen is one I have from a beach in cape breton. It's full of mica and little garnets.

Favorite Cartoon

2006-10-02T09:56:00.000-07:00

humm... duck tales but probably just for the theme song

Conference Plans

2006-09-29T09:09:00.000-07:00

Relax, get lots of sleep and watch conference in my pajamas! Maybe go up the canyon in the afternoon and listen to conference on the radio.

Favorite Cereal

2006-09-27T09:44:00.000-07:00

I love cereal, especially shreddies but sadly the only place I can buy them here is Crazy Canucks for over $6 a box

Instruments

2006-09-25T09:53:00.000-07:00

Sadly I play no instruments but if I could I'd play the spoons

Food Storage

2006-09-22T09:57:00.000-07:00

plain yogurt - I can't live without it! Believe it or not, plain yogurt goes with everything; add it to cereal, with fruit, use it in a marinade, dips, but most importantly is best as a sour cream replacement ... ummm so good :)

Why Geology?

2006-09-20T09:52:00.000-07:00

I can thank my dad for getting me interested in geology (he's a geologist). Originally I wanted to study environmental science but when I realized it wasn't offered at BYU decided to give geology a shot.
Plus I think rocks are really cool :)

Super Power

2006-09-18T09:52:00.000-07:00

The ultimate super power would be lightspeed reading skills and teleporting abilities. With these super powers I could cut down on studying, increase sleep and save time!

Best Pizza Toppings

2006-09-15T09:56:00.000-07:00

ummm... I LOVE pizza!! The ultimate pizza toppings are ham and extra pinnaple on a thin crust crust with lots of sauce with a bit of a kick.

Troublesome Quality

2006-09-13T09:58:00.000-07:00

I can't say no!!!
CONFUSED... with everything!!! I really need to play around with front page.

Worst Movie Ever...

2006-09-11T09:48:00.000-07:00

I'm very easily entertained so there aren't too many movies that I could classify as the worst ever. Truthfully I can't think of anything right now. I'll have to get back to you on this one.

Vacation Spot

2006-09-08T09:56:00.000-07:00

CONFUSED ... not too much right now

My favorite vacation spot would most definitely be Cape Breton Island but someday would love to go to New Zealand.
