11 Things about Me

November 21, 2008 at 11:42 pm (about me) ()

Here are some things about me.

1. I have spent the day in jail two years ago for attempted theft of a car, driving without insurance and driving with an expired tag…it was a HUGE misunderstanding and at no fault of my own.. all charges were dropped. That’s what happens when you drive someones new car before they finish all the paper work! :shock:

2. I hate to cook, but I’m pretty good at it.

3. I attended a private Christian school from 1st to 5th, home schooled from 5th – 9th, back to the same private school for 9th-10th, home for 11th and back to private school for Senior year.

4. I have worked as a bank teller, pharmaceutical technician, bookkeeper, Gopher/receptionist for an attorney, nanny and I sold jeans at Levi’s.

5. I kept several diaries in highschool, but only put the stuff that would freak my parent’s out in one that was easily found b/c I knew that they were reading it! :)

6. I had an imaginary friend named Captain Dan. When I was about three, my mom and I went to the post office. When we drove away, I was crying so hysterically that my mom asked what in the world was wrong. I finally choked out, “we left captain Dan at the post office!” :shock:

7. I believed in Santa until I was fourteen, noone could convince me other wise.

8. My favorite snack currently is salted, roasted almonds.

9. Lecrae’s cd called When the music stops makes me cry for some reason… the lyrics to “i’m praying for you” and “send me”in particular.

10. I am fascinated by the sky and thank God every time it catches my attention. I think of it as a gift from Him.

11. I have never broken a bone.

Ok, that’s all I can think of right now…. How about you??

    i cant imagine how traumatic a night in jail would be. that would seriously send me over the edge!

    so, what did you prefer…private school or homeschool?

    HA! It was only the day in jail… I would have probably gone way over the edge had it been all night!
    As far as school, that is a hard one… I guess home school because there was more freedom. I could work ahead, I had tutors come in to teach me on more difficult subjects. I was involved with sports teams, drama teams and bands for the social outlet as well.
