Tagged

Here are the rules:
1.Post the rules on your blog
2.Write 6 random things about yourself
3.Tag 6 people at the end of your post
4.If you are tagged, just do it, and pass the tag along!

1. I am so completely excited to participate in the hood ceremony at my commencement this weekend. I have dreamed about this for years and can't believe that I am finally here. When I picked up my cap and gown and they took the hood for the ceremony I choked up a bit.

2. Abram and I are currently trying to become multilingual. We spent last month learning French, which was easy for me since that was my language in highschool. We are on to Mandarin Chinese now. I am not catching on at all...but they have these catchy songs that I can remember the syllables to so I go around singing something and not really knowing what I am saying. It is all in hopes that early exposure will allow Abram to learn languages easier later in life.

3. If I could have any job in the world (and not have to worry about dying) I would be in the CIA. If I could have any artistic skill in the world it would be a toss up between cake decorating and photography.

4. I can not stand roof shingles that are old and curl up on the edges. If a whole roof is covered with them it actually makes me want to throw up. I feel like throwing up a little just thinking about it.

5. I know a secret that the rest of my family doesn't know yet.

6. When I was very young I wanted to be a boy. I actually thought I was a boy for a while because all the neighborhood kids were boys and that's who I played with all the time. I remember when I was about 4 asking my dad if I could play outside without my shirt on like everyone else.

I am tagging: Mom, Brandy, Bill, Jenny, Erin, and Rachel (although you have an excuse for not responding Rach :)

Sorry I am so pre-occupied, we'll talk this week. Hope your ceremony met your expectations, what a great accomplishment. Be sure to post a picture in your gown and hood.
