All right, all right, I'll do it.

These were posted on Cami's blog, as well as Emily's, and I thought it seemed fun when I read through. Here we go!

Three things I'm looking forward to this year:
  1. Going back to school.
  2. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in theaters.
  3. Making some money.
Three joys in my life:
  1. My family, one and all.
  2. Music (my iPod is a prized possession), and media in general.
  3. Brownies.
Three movies I've watched multiple times:
  1. West Side Story.
  2. The Hudsucker Proxy.
  3. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
Three fears:
  1. Loneliness.
  2. Disappointing people I care about.
  3. SHARKS.
Three favorite foods:
  1. Fetuccini Alfredo.
  2. Pizza.
  3. BCE (if you don't know, you haven't lived!).
Three goals I've set for myself:
  1. Get a job.
  2. Pray morning and night and do daily scripture study (I will borrow this from you Cami!), and study Hmong occasionally.
  3. Get married.
Three TV shows I watch:
  1. LOST.
  2. The Office.
  3. Survivor.
Three current obsessions:
  1. My computer (I'm thinking of taking Minesweeper off of it... But never iTunes).
  2. Running.
  3. Blogging.
Three places I've visited:
  1. The Eiffel Tower and Montmartre.
  2. Green Bay.
  3. Ensanada.
Three places I'd like to visit:

  2. Disneyland Paris.
  3. Thailand.
Three random facts about me:
  1. I have a selectively "photographic" memory.
  2. I don't really sing in the shower that much (unless I'm listening to something, then I sing along).
  3. I always wanted braces and glasses as a kid. (One out of two so far!)
Three embarrassing facts about me:
  1. I still listen to music from my childhood sometimes (Muppets, Chipmunks, etc.).
  2. I like boy band music (some...).
  3. I have an irrational fear of frogs (muppet and cartoon frogs are fine, just not real ones).

NEXT!

20 years ago I:
  1. Was getting ready to be baptized.
  2. Was wearing my sisters' clothes on occasion.
  3. Was starting to catch the animation fire (via The Little Mermaid).
  4. Was just getting into readin (My Father's Dragon comes to mind).
  5. Made cassette taped game shows with Cami ("I wanted de eggo!").

10 years ago I:
  1. Was a senior in high school.
  2. Was student body artist (unopposed in the elections).
  3. Was "dating" the "love of my life".
  4. Was in and out of life-changing troubles.
  5. Was leading the marching band.
5 years ago I:
  1. Was plodding (and animating) my way through college.
  2. Was made used to the idea of never serving a mission.
  3. Was getting into the Harry Potter hype like you wouldn't believe.
  4. Was working on and off at the BYU Bookstore and living at the Glenwood (still my favorite college ward).
  5. Had long since left the life-changing troubles from high school behind for good.
3 years ago I:
  1. Was in Pirates of Penzance for the third and best time (first time as a Policeman).
  2. Graduated from BYU.
  3. Was "dating" the "love of my life".
  4. Received an unexpected mission call.
  5. Watched one twin get married and the other get engaged.
So far this year I:
  1. Have returned from serving a mission.
  2. Have watched approximately 81 movies.
  3. Have married off my baby sister.
  4. Have decided to go back to college.
  5. Have grown to love volleyball.
Yesterday I:
  1. Tried forever to fix the internet, leading to a minor meltdown (until, success at last!).
  2. Read over 100 pages in my book (due to lack of internet, no doubt), and did some consequent drawings!!!
  3. Played the piano.
  4. Made some nachos (wow, I actually made myself lunch).
  5. Ran to the church for volleyball.
Today I will:
  1. Do 100 push-ups and 100 sit-ups.
  2. Hopefully read some more.
  3. Go for family festivities in the mountains.
  4. Listen to Chloë's CD.
  5. Text Lacie and tell her there's no LOST tonight.
Tomorrow I will:
  1. Attend the pie bake-off bonanza (first time in several years!).
  2. See if we can have a LOST night tomorrow after all, then end up recalling it's fireworks night anyway.
  3. Look for a hefty paycheck in the mail, only to realize it's a national holiday.
  4. Think of my foreign land friends with sadness that they can't have a day off.
  5. Listen to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's "Spirit of America" CD.
In the next year I will:
  1. (Hopefully) have been accepted to graduate school.
  2. (Hopefully) have a healthy and fun dating relationship.
  3. Become somewhat self-sufficient.
  4. Have published my book.
  5. Have visited Wisconsin again.
Huzzah, there you go! This was fun, though sometimes surprisingly hard to come up with the proper answers. You win a BCE if you read it all the way through.

  3. To Cortnie: Thanks for the suggestions! But as for the first three, I have already seen them (in fact, I blogged about Crash just the other day), but I will look into the other three. And yes, Lacie, I posted on facebook about that... Sorry. And Sarah, BCE are the Best Cookies Ever. Basically the only thing I can bake, but really it's okay because those are all one would ever need. Ask anyone, they live up to the name.
