10

Day 10: What do you look for in a guy/girl?
 
When i was 12, i made a list of qualities i want in my husband. and i made one when i was 13, 14, 15 and so on. i even wrote a letter to my 'future husband' when i was 15, sitting in mrs. deatons 6th period class...and i'm stoked to give it to him because its absolutely ridiculous.
 
my list has nearly 90 things on it. thats alot and pretty unrealistic...but some of the most important things are:
 
1. gospel oriented.
2. hard worker
3. family man
4. understanding
5. good communication
6. trust worthy
7. respectful
8. my kind of weird sense of humor
9. polite
10. humble
 
...and 80 other things. but i'm so tired i cant list anymore. but those are super important, wouldnt you agree?

Day 9 - Put your ipod on shuffle and write 10 songs that pop up.
my ipod is dead. sue me. itunes is the same thing.
1. MJ- Smooth Criminal. (rest in peace)
2. Mika- Big Girl, You are Beautiful (waaaaaaaa. this goes out to me, the fatty)
3. The Beatles- Let it be. (senior year, across the universe, noodle and zachary.)
4.No Doubt- Dont Speak (me and corbin have sing alongs to this.. i cant help but love it.)
5.Jim Sturgess- All my loving (i maybe like this one more than the original?)
6.Kaylee Cole- Uncertain World (strange lyrics, catchy song! This goes out to the kids who went to that concert..hahaa.. SHENENDOAH. enough said)
7. Glee cast- Can't fight this feeling (reminds me of the countless days i drove my hawaii boys to the Hilton and put this Glee CD on repeat till they fell asleep. Countless. Hours...of trying to put them to sleep and avoid wild hogs on the hawaiian roads.)
8. Adele- Make you feel my love (this song goes on repeat often. sigh. one of the best love songs...go youtube it. worth it.)
9.Tay Swift- You belong with me (maybe i sing this really loud by myself in the car sometimes)
10. John Mayer- Dreaming with a broken heart (pathetically has been my theme in years past. for all who really know me.. you KNOW this is true. pah. theh-tic.)

eight

day8. If you could have any pet regardless of what it is, what would you want?


hmmmmm. this is a hard one for me..because i've had many pets. lets name them.
minnie
shep
sadie
countless goldfish
stewie the hampster
harry potter the puffer fish
luna the beta
juliet the parakeet
ozzie
lady gaga

and some more i dont remember. (in bold means they are still living. surprisingly...) so, with all the experience i have...

i would want any pet that:
didnt shed
stink
make noise
poop
pee
squak
bark
or anything like that.

but all animals do most of those things.
hmmmm. so, pretending the following animal was magically the perfect, clean, good-smelling quiet pet...i would want...a few of them.

1. a horse of a different color. how FUN would that be!? dream come true. i'd ride to campus in STYLE!




2. My very own Dobby. Probably because he'd tell me i'm pretty every day and do favors for me. and i think magical creatures count as 'pets'?




3. a widdle happy baby snuggly smiley piggy. look how darling that is! my pig would win first place.


4. a little flying squirrel. some girl at my highschool used to bring hers to school and ever since then ive wanted one. it just would be fun to launch it at unsuspecting people...look at it rub its little hands together ready to launch!


and then.........
POWWWWWWWWWW!
unsuspecting victim gets a face full of squirrel.
funny.

mambo numbo five. (+happy birthday chelle)

5. Something that makes you feel better.


well.. a few things.
maybe this is selfish and prissy of me...
but the one thing that always makes me feel better? like when i have a suuuuuper bad day or get dumped by a boy?
 
a new pair of shoes.
 
honestly. it doesnt matter if they are flats or heels. my last break up i got sneakers... the one before that i think it was black stillettos..  haha. and i have QUITE the collection. I'll just leave it at that.
 
getting my nails done
my mama knows when i needa manicure. she'll force me to go 'get beautiful' if i am having a depressing week. after i get my nails did, i feel all purrty and confident. haaaa. self centered? maybe.
 
my mama
Shes my best friend. and ALWAYS has some sort of advice...whether its good advice or bad advice haha. (you know its true, mother.) She always makes me feel good about myself- and i know she is the one person i can always go to if i need anything...because she will always think i'm wonderful, even when i'm not. thats how mamas should be.
 
 
 
 
ALSO
 
my little sister is 17 today. ahhhhh. my LITTLE sister. i remember the day she was born!!! how weird.
she is so pretty and cute and nice and is just great. so glad she was born. enjoy these little pictures from the mid-90's.
 
 





dah dah dahhhh! HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRETTY BELUGA!

numba FOUR

day 4.What’s your guilty pleasure: tv show, food, and magazine?

hmm.
tv show: GUILTY pleasure? sometimes me and christy watch trashy mtv shows that we shouldnt watch. silly dating ones, like 'for the love of ray j' or 'teen mom'... i'm sorry. they are just so darn entertaining.





food: peanut butter cup perfection. its the only thing i ever get at coldstone.
thats where my extra LBS have come in. i crave it all day everyday.




magazine: i'm not really a magaziner.
 but since i was oh.. 17 maybe.. i sometimes pick up bridal magazines and sit on the floor of smiths and read to my hearts content.
 tee-hee.
 i just love all the ridiculously coture dresses..
 and all the BLING!
 ahh. dream dream dream.


thuh-ree.

3. A picture or description of your favorite place in your world. And I’m not talking about like France or Greece. I’m talking somewhere you visit daily or atleast fairly often


hummmmmm. favorite place in MY world?

A bookstore. Borders or Barnes and Noble. and guess what- i don't even read that much. my sister tami is a total bookworm and reads books in like, a few hours.. me..not so much. when i find a reaaaaaalllllly good book i'll commit to read it, and love it forever. But honestly? whyyyyy do i love bookstores if im not a total book nerd? because i walk in and it smells like fresh book pages and coffee. i dunno..its just super cozy. i like cozy things. who DOESNT like browsing in a huuuuuuuuuge maze of books? and not just boring books... FUN books! i feel like belle off beauty and the beast when beast gives her her very own library. I sound like a moron..but this is my world. so whatever.

sometimes i just walk in, find a book or cute magazine that catches my eye, and plop down and look through it. and mostly i end up in the kids section looking at cool facts and world record books...... hahah.  before i know it hours have passed and i'm slightly embarrassed...AND..sometimes they give you samples of pastries they make in the little coffee shop in the corner. so how could you not love that!?

 Thats my most favorite place in 'my' world.

Day 2

2-Name a celebrity crush and what you would do if you got to spend a day with them.

(when did i get that red-carpet body? shizzam!)
Well well well. lets see. its obvious that michael bubles voice makes me SWOON. the funny thing is, is that if you saw him walking down the street, he just looks like an average joe. but MAN.... God bless those vocal chords. If i got to spend a day with him, i would simply set him down in my living room, set up a mic, sit on the couch and make him sing to me. sweet, sweet songs i would make him sing. Maybe at 4 hour intervals, with romantic picnics in between.

Michael Buble, you are a gift from heaven. It is #42 on my list of things to do before i die to meet you and have you sing into my eyes. I'd even let you sing to me if maybe we decided to jet to hawaii in a private plane of yours... because whats more romantic than a serenade at 30,000 ft in the air? to end my day, he would sing to me on the beach. the end.

that would be the day.

30 day blog challenge- Day 1

Good way to start off the new year. so, here goes...found this on a cute blog i stalk and i hope to start and finish this little challenge.


Your name and 5 things about you that no one really knows


Nicole Linnae Booth
 
1. When i was two, i swallowed my grandpas heart pills because i thought they were flinstone vitamins. went to the hospital in an ambulance and they made me drink syrup of yackitup- or ipicac.
 
2. i used to fake injuries so i could go to the doctors when i was a kid. i dont know why. i'd think, 'hmm..nothings been wrong for a while. owww! my arm!!' then my brain would make my arm hurt..and walla-  a cherry sucker and if i was lucky, i'd get an x-ray and i could add a sticker to my x-ray sticker collection. sorry for all those co-pays mom. (i think you knew i was a faker sometimes)
 
3. i used to love the smell of newspaper. i'd smell it when i was little and once my sister noticed a grey mark between my eyes and said it was from rubbing it on my face. i tried to wash it off, turns out it was a little birthmark. hmmm. kinda familiar to the story when i tried to wash the 'dirt' out of my hair when my sisters told me i had 'dirty blonde hair'.
 
4. My biggest fear is hitting someone while driving. Maybe because i saw a 'touched by an angel' episode where a lady in a red car hit a little girl and it ruined her life. hence, why angels had to visit her, dar dar dar.
 
5. i've always wanted to be an actress. but the world is so smutty, i'd never let myself pursue it.
 
that is all. carry on.

Update

Well, December has come and gone. which means all the best holidays are gone too.
  • Christmas
  • My birthday
  • and NEW YEARRRS.

Christmas was great- up until my puppy ate a nylon sock and we almost had to send her to the big doggie playground in the sky.. luckily the surgeon saved her.

My birthday was great- lots of family and presents and my sister jackie surprised me by being a sneaky snitch and having some of my friends come over to surprise me after dinner. How am i so oblivious? maybe i was too focused on my food at wingers to notice any sneaky sketchiness going on between my family members. SNEAKY.

New Years eve was rung in with work in logan, nannying for my two boys. Its always a party with them...i then consumed too much icecream and 2 delicious pieces of Great Value cheesecake and i'm pretty sure I stayed up till 5 a.m. God bless america!
