9 Things

1. I have a nasty habit of eating in bed. I'm very anal about crumbs and use a hand towel as a bib, but nevertheless, I love a good snack while laying down and watching TV.

2. I need at least 1 serving of junk food a day to survive, preferably Chocolate. For example, This past week I personally have consumed 2 boxes of Cheez-it's and 1 1/2 Gallons of Rocky Road Ice Cream. My Brothers and I were just discussing our fantastic genes. Without them, we'd all be in serious trouble. I'm starting P90X tomorrow because honestly, I feel disgusting.

3. I haven't seen my natural hair color since 7th grade. I've been every color under the rainbow but I prefer Light Blond. I'm almost certain I am a natural blond because when my hair is dyed dark, and I get roots, they look white. However, when I'm light and my roots come in they look black... I'm going to guess Dark/dirty blond...

4. I can raise my left eyebrow but not my right. I am also double jointed in my thumbs. I can bend them backwards to a 90 degree angle, but I can not make them stand straight up. (My "thumbs up" gesture looks a little strange)

5. I HATE HATE HATE when people speak in the 2nd person, when they should be speaking in the 1st. For example, I was watching a Proactive commercial and the boy said, "When I put this crap on my face at night, you wake up and you don't have acne." No, that is not the case. You put the pimple cream on and I still get a zit. UGH! It drives me nuts. Now that you know about this, you will notice people doing it ALL THE TIME! I blame it on our public education system.

6. My BF thinks my couponing/saving money turns me on more than he does. To which I respond, "Good, you're not supposed to be turning me on!!!"

7. I have severe insomnia. It started about 2 years ago. I am never tired until about 5am. Even if I go to bed at 10 I lay awake until about 5, sometimes 7. It's ridiculous. Right now I'm not in school so it's OK if I don't wake up until noon, but Monday I have class at 8:30 (what was I thinking) meaning I need to be up by 6:30 so I can be down to good ol' UNLV on time.

8. If there was any money in it, my dream job would be as a Paleoanthropologist. I love ancient humans and would love to spend all day researching/looking at "Cavemen." Although I technically don't believe in Evolution, I do believe that my religious beliefs and Science go hand in hand. And I love being able to connect science and religion whenever I learn something new. If I were able to make $100,000+ annually digging up bones in the dirt, I'd do it in a heart beat.

9. I am going camping this weekend. When I was younger I was a total "boy". Pants, outside games, dirt, mud, and all things boy used to excite me. Then, about my senior year of high school, I gained an appreciation for the color pink, make-up, and hair products. I haven't been camping since the one year I actually went to girls camp, and I have to say I'm a little nervous. I googled things to pack for camping and every website I've come across stresses the importance of packing light. However while scrolling through the lists it seems as though I should just pack the entire contents of my house...

CONTEST: So here's where you come in. I am looking for "an experienced" camper's knowledge of a good weekend packing list. Whoever e-mails me the best, and most helpful list will receive a FREE portrait session (not wedding). I need the list no later than Thursday evening at about 6pm PST. The portrait session is available to all Las Vegas Residents, and is valued at $125. It could be of your children, family, or just you. Good luck!
