Blogger 411 {Old Pictures + Survey}

 

{I didn't answer all the questions. I'm sitting on my couch watching How I Met Your Mother and some of them I cut for time and others I just didn't have good answers for!}

1. How long have you been blogging? And what got you started on blogging? Has your blog changed?
I think my first blog was a Diaryland creation way back in high school...I grew on to Xanga, Livejournal, and finally settled with Blogger once I started using GMail. I think I started blogging because I spent WAY too much time on the internet and enjoyed web design. My blog has changed from being a super private blog on Livejournal to now a public place to document my life. 

2. Did you go to college? If so where, and what did you study? I went to the University of Central Florida for my undergraduate degree. After three majors (Creative Writing, Journalism, Political Science), I finally settled on "Liberal Studies." It basically let me take 18 credits in three study areas so I could take what I want! ;)




3. Where have you traveled? Not very many places. As far as the US, I've only been to Chicago, NYC, Connecticut, Boston a few times, several road trips... but nothing too crazy. I have explored a lot of Florida though too obviously.


Outside the country I've gone to the Bahamas twice, Honduras, Grand Cayman, and Mexico.


4. If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would buy? A house. No question!


5. What are your 3 biggest pet peeves? People not following through, being unreliable and untrustworthy.

6. What is your favorite movie? I love a lot of Will Ferrell movies. Right now I will say that Knocked Up is a good one that I've rewatched a few times recently!


7. What is your drink of choice; wine, beer, or liquor. Or Water, Soda, Tea? GIVE ME THE BOOZE. Clearly I'm craving it. Cider is my preference...any kind. Magner's, Woodchuck, whatever. I love a good beer and wine is fine by me. Liquor is awesome but I try to steer clear or else I'm down for the count a little too early.
 
8. What is something you enjoy to do when you have me time? Reading...Blogging...Doing my nails.


9. If you could have a $10,000 shopping spree to one store, which store would it be? I'd probably go to Target and go crazy redecorating and buy a lifetime supply of nail polish. 




11. What day would you love to relive again? Our wedding!


13. What are the jobs you had in high school/college/the early years? My first job was at a movie theater! How glamorous! Picking up people's disgusting trash they leave in theaters, cooking popcorn and hot dogs all day... I smelled amazing. Yeech!


14. Show us a picture from high school or college.

High School
Clearly lame awesome playing Dance Dance Revolution


College -- UCF
 
With Cameron and Brad from Real World. They came to speak on campus.

Pajamas and paper bags


I graduated on time. I consider this a win.


16. Show us the most current picture of you or you and your family.

My husband and baby on the way!

17. Where do you see your life 5 years from now? Well -- we will have a FAMILY. With one on the way now... we would have a five year old. That's crazy to think about. I'd like to have another one by then... so maybe two kids? That is hard to wrap my mind around! ;) I'm sure we will still live in Florida -- we could never leave the sunshine.

Diaryland! My first "blog" that wasn't flat HTML was on there, though I didn't really stay there long... I hopped to scribble.nu, then diary-x.com before landing on a self-hosted b2 blog. :)

Love this post, it's so fun getting to see old pics. I just had Angry Orchard for the first time and loved it. The only problem was I had it the day before I was giving up alcohol until I get to my goal weight.
