Memeing off of Meghan

1. What does your name mean? Well, my keychain tells me that the name Jennifer means "fair". So apparently that means I am supposed to be blonde, according to that. Oh well... I like it.

2. Where was your default pic taken? Actually, I lack a default pic... I can't figure the whole thing out.

3. What's your middle name? It is Thadyne. Any other Thadynes out there? Feel free to make your presence known.

4. What is your current relationship status? Single. I am single like a Kraft Single all alone in an empty refrigerator.

5. Honestly, does your crush like you back? Which one? Most of the time, I think all of them are nos, and occasionally (very occasionally) I let myself hope that one of them might be a yes. Why don't the ones I like and the ones who like me ever match up? It has got to be the worst luck in the world.

6.What's your current mood? Pain, because my face hurts. Wisdom teeth are coming in, and I need to get my glasses adjusted.

7. What do you like the most? Warm spring days, road trips, slowly waking up in the morning, getting dressed up, and babies.

8. What makes you happy? Well, all of number seven, and I guess I'll add a few more... hmmm.... Getting an e-mail for no reason other than catching up, staying up all night talking, having debates about the stupidest things, like where stores should display canned tuna and why, and hugs.

9. Are you musically inclined? Well, I can sing, and I like listening to music, but I cannot operate an instrument. I admire people who can though.

10. If you could go back and change something, would you? Hmmm.... that's a toughie. I'd love to redo awkward conversations, or embarressing moments, or avoid myself a lot of heartache, or have gotten a different field placement, but would I be the same person if I'd avoid those lessons? I don't know.

11. If you MUST be an animal for one day, what would you be? I would be someone's pet ferret. They look like they are always having so much fun, and when they sleep, they look SO relaxed.

12. Ever had a near death experience? Actually, yes I have. I don't really remember a lot though, so I can't tell you if there was stars, or a tunnel, or anything.

13.Something you do a lot? I pretty much sit in front of my computer.

14. What's the name of the song stuck in your head right now? Actually, I am listening to a new CD, so it is Concerto in G by Antonio Vivaldi. It is off the Marie Antonette soundtrack.

15. Who did you copy and paste this from? Meghan.

16. Have you ever sang in front of a large audience? With groups, never alone.

17. Name someone with the same birthday as you. Pam, Michael (the only non-creepy person to ask me out- an army boy), Jacob (someone I knew from the community), and Bonnie (my old boss). Who knew April Fool's Day was so popular? Ha! I got four! I challange any of you to beat that!

18. What's the first thing you notice about the opposite sex? Their shoulders. And if they are the right height so that if I hugged them, I could rest my head on his shoulder without getting a crick in my neck without putting my nose in his armpit.

19. What do you usually order from Starbucks? A pastry of some kind.

20. What is your favorite smell? Hamburger cooking. Oh! Except for this one cologne that Someone (can't say who) wears. I was at BP's and the server was wearing the same cologne, and even though he was old and ugly, I was still attracted to him because the cologne was the same as what this other person wears. Isn't that lame?

I should be out celebrating

So university students everywhere are all celebrating the end of term. All of the assignments and deadlines and responsibilities are out of the way until the New Year, and they can all settle down to family time, vacations in exotic places, and celebrating the holidays.

Not me. I still have an assignment to finish, and three more days of field placement to make up for some of the time I missed earlier in term. It actually feels like a bit of a letdown.

Year End Blog

I am stealing this idea from Bronwyn's blog. It is a year end meme- you post the first sentance that you blogged from each month of the year. So here we go...

January- Well, I am home again from Christmas and New Year's.

February- So, I was sitting in my Children and Adolescents class this morning, when it suddenly dawned on me with a gasp of horror that I have three assignments due in the next week and a half, and I haven't started on any of them.

March- So yesterday morning I woke up at 6:30 as usual, and got ready to go to school.

April- I had a lovely birthday.

May- Put your music player on shuffle.

June- I am melting...

July- I stayed healthy for a week while I was at camp.

August- I have a theme song!

September- Well, I just got back from a weekend retreat with my church, and I had so much fun!

October- So I am walking home today, talking to my sister on my cell phone.

November- So I was on the bus yesterday...

December- Here's the gist of this one.

Well, that looks boring.... :b

I am sick

Well, I got sick very suddenly. Yesterday, I was healthy. Today, I have a cough, achey muscles, am lethargic, can't get into a deep sleep, and I coughed so ard I gave myself a huge nosebleed.

I hate feeling nasty and weak like this.

Although good thing it is now, and ot at New Years.

But I still ate it.
