Five Question Friday

Five Question Friday:

1. Did you have a pen pal when you were little (or now)? Where were/are they from?

I'm pretty sure I had a pen pal in elementary school.  I don't really remember, but it might have been through girl scouts.  

I did meet a boy at church camp in 5th grade that I wrote back and forth to for a while.    We were camp boyfriend/girlfriend and then continued to keep in contact for a while afterwards.  All the girls from the group he came with told me he wouldn't write...and I was 10, so what did I really care?  But he did for a while.  I'm pretty sure I saw him again in 8th grade at another church camp, but our 10 year old romance was gone by then haha.

2. If you could do a different job for one day, what would it be?

ESPN sideline reporter!  Oh yea!  IF we're actually talking specifics...SEC football!  How about the Florida/Alabama game this weekend?  Anyone want to hire me?!

PS: GO GATORS!!!  

3. Do you remember your biggest fear from when you were little?

Well, I had a few...

One was having a snake come up the toilet and I'd sit down and oh no!  

Another was when I was swimming in a pool, that the grate at the bottom would suddenly fly off and a shark would be in the pool...I would never even touch the grate.  

And lastly, we had some family friends that were from Bolivia and they had all these stories they would tell of different scary people that they were told from their cousins who live in Bolivia still...there was this hair lady in the closet that would get you and a guy called the Duandito whose head was on backwards and he would come for children or something like that.  You could never say his name outloud or he'd come for you!

Obviously, I had a vivid imagination, and those family friends did not help with that :)

4. What do you think is a waste of time? Why?

Facebook.  It sucks you in.  I've been avoiding it this week + been too busy and it's been a nice break.  I've gone on in the morning to check messages from people, and then after that, haven't been on the rest of the day/night.  If only we could find a different place to post pictures within friends and you could get those few people you keep in touch with to email.  I really do have a love/hate relationship with that website.

5. What is the oldest item you have in your closet?

Off hand, I'd have to say a pair of Abercrombie jeans I got when I was 18.  It was the most I had ever spent on a pair of jeans, and my friend worked there and had gotten me a discount.  They're still going strong and I wear them on a regular basis.  No one will never convince me that all jeans are the same.  That's an area I will splurge on.  Tops you get very tired of so by the time they wear out, you don't want to wear them anymore anyway, but jeans don't usually go out of style, so if I can make another pair last 8 years, I'll be happy :)  My favorite jeans now are Big Star from the Buckle store.  We'll see if they survive the test of time!
