10 Years Ago
I was the fat new kid in town with braces and a tooth in the middle of my mouth. I was generally pessimistic, cynical, but wanted to always follow the rules and do my best in school. I wore clothes from DI, read Louis L' Amour books (or anything else I could get my hands on), and was just realizing that I was never going to make it to the NBA.

5 Things On My To Do List Today
1) Finish my lyric essay
2)Figure out how to do better in technical writing
3)Laugh
4)--->Try to plan date and (maybe) attend mardi gras party? Wanna watch Hotel Rwanda later on in the evening....hmmm...still don't quite know yet.
5)Work at TRG in SLC. Train Yvette, finish Pheasant Run project draws, and work on Ironwood banking items.

5 Snacks I Enjoy
1) Tortilla chips and cottage cheese
2)Flavor blasted goldfish crackers
3)Baby carrots
4)Celery, peanut butter, and raisins
5)Banana (but not too ripe-no brown spots is preferred)

What would I do with a billion dollars?
Study. Invest. Philanthropize. Buy a truck, tour Europe, build a cabin, support a school.

5 Places I have Lived
1) Cockaroach infested Yamanoue cho
2)Rupert, Idaho aka Christmas City, USA
3)Heber Valley
4)Valley of the Sun
5)Nara, Japan

5 Jobs I have had

5 Things People Don't Know About Me
1) I had chickens, sheep, dogs, and a steer as a kid
2) I was in 4H (even won a red ribbon in cooking at the Minico County Fair)
3) I was on the swim team as a kid, and won the Rupert Swim Team high points award as a ten year old
4) I don't like peaches, pears, or strawberry shortcake.
5) I wrestled for three months in Idaho. The only reason I quit was because...ok...well, there were two:
a) I'm a pansy
b) and a wimp.
