Answers from Q&A - Part Two

**Second Half to Q&A Post**

L @ Dreams Take Flight asked -

"What is your biggest accomplishment"?

My biggest accomplishment so far would probably be getting into A&M last year. I graduated high school in May of 2005 and then went to a community college right after. Then in 2008 I applied to A&M and transferred here last Fall!

"What is your most memorable childhood memory"?

It would probably going on family vacations. I love going to Destin, Florida every year!


"What do you order at Starbucks"?

I love the White Chocolate Vanilla Latte and the Carmel Frappuccino!!

Leslie asked -

"What is your favorite item in your closet"?

Well I just got through shopping so it would probably be my new dress that I got at Old Navy today! It's gray and white - it's really simple but cute!!

Laura asked -

"If some reason teaching wasn't an option...what would your second choice in career be"?

Probably a Labor and Delivery Nurse. I ♥ babies!!! I thought about going to school for this but I am not a big fan of science/math. Or I would love to have a job that required me to travel a lot!


"What do you eat for breakfast"?

It really depends. I like to switch it up because I usually get sick of stuff fast! It's usually either cereal or waffles. Right now I am on a bagel/cream cheese kick though!

"What is your idea of a perfect date"?

Probably cooking a nice dinner together or going out to eat to a nice restaurant (a Mexican restaurant preferably) Ha! Then either go see a movie or if we are close to the beach go walk down the shore. I am pretty laid-back so just something simple!

Sarah asked -

"What is your favorite movie (or current favorite)"?

My favorite movie this past summer was The Hangover...I LOVED that movie! Thought it was hilarious!


"Why did you decide to become a teacher"?

I started substituting a few years ago and LOVED it! I always got so mad when a teacher left me nothing to do because I wanted to TEACH! So I think after subbing is when I decided I wanted to become a teacher.

Jenna asked -

"What is your favorite kind of music and band/artist"?

I love just about ALL kinds of music. Anything from country to pop. I have sooo many favorite artists...it's hard to pick one! My favorite country singers are Clay Walker, Brad Paisley, Keith Urban, Tim Mcgraw, Taylor Swift, Eli Young Band, Zac Brown Band, Sugarland...and so many more! And pop would have to be Britney Spears.

Jenna and Laura asked -

"Where would you go on your dream vacation"?

I would love to go somewhere tropical like the Bahama's or Hawaii. Or I would love to go to Greece....it is beautiful there!

I really enjoyed doing a Q&A post! Thank you to everybody who left me a question!! It was a lot of fun! Hope you are having a great start to your week! :)

Weekend Recap!

How was every one's weekend? Mine was pretty good...I wasn't very productive. I didn't get any homework done...but it's the weekend right? Ha! So I guess I will be spending my Sunday night studying!! Friday night Kristan, Natalia, a friend of theirs, and I all went out to a restaurant here in College Station called Ozona's. We all sat on the patio and had a margarita (or maybe two). I love the patio at Ozona's... it is so nice!

Yesterday I went to the game here at A&M with Natalia and Caitlin. Natalia's brother and his girlfriend came in yesterday and went with us as well. Before the game we went to a tailgate party that a girl in one of our classes was having. It was a lot of fun! I have been wanting to tailgate more often....sometimes I think I would rather tailgate than go to the game since we have to stand the whole time. Sad...I know! Ha!

I was so excited to wear my new t-shirt dress my Aunt Tina made for Caitlin and I. Isn't it cute?!

We played UAB (University of Alabama) last night and we won!! A&M is on a roll this year...it's our third game in a row to win!

I took this picture of the sky during half time...I thought it was so pretty!


After the game we went down on the field to take a picture. Excuse my hair...after standing in the heat and sweating for three hours it started looking pretty bad.

Me, Natalia, and her brother's girlfriend Andrea


Afterwards, we all went out to Northgate since Andrea has never been. It was so much fun just sitting around and talking!

Today I am going to go have a late lunch/early dinner with my conversation partner. For one of my classes here at A&M I have to be paired up with an ELL(English Language Learner) for the semester and we have to meet a total of ten hours. They are wanting the ELL to practice their English talking to us. My partner is a girl from South Korea and we met for the first time last week at Starbucks. She is really nice...I enjoyed hearing all about where she is from. She is a little bit older than me and is married. When we meet last week she told me that she found out the day before that she was pregnant. You know I LOVED that because I just love babies!! :)

I hope ya'll have a great rest of the weekend! And don't forget to check out my Q&A post...I am going to be answering the second half sometime this week!


P.S. Katie is having her first giveaway! Go check out her page!

Answers from Q&A - Part One

I really enjoyed reading every one's questions they had for me!! I am going to answer the first half today and then the next half sometime early next week!! :)

Lindsey asked...

" What is your favorite thing about going to school at A&M"?

Good question....one of my favorite things about A&M is that the town of College Station has that "small town" feel but still has everything that there is in a city. I also, like that I am only about an hour and half away from home.

"Where do you want to be after you graduate"?

I am really not sure where I want to be after I graduate. I am trying to decide if I want to do my student teaching here in CS or go back home to do it. Everyone is telling me to do your student teaching where you want to end up teaching at. I for sure know I do not want to end up teaching in CS so I am not sure. I will let ya'll know next semester what I decide to do!!!

Sonja asked....

"Where are you originally from"?

I was born in Houston, Texas and I lived in Houston till I was two. Then my parents moved to the Magnolia area (which is about 30 miles north of Houston) and that is where we have been living ever since! It's kinda in the suburbs.

"What is your favorite thing to do when you are not in school"?

Hmm...good one. I love hanging out with my friends whether it's cooking at each others places, going out for a margarita, going to the movies, or watching reality TV together. Ha!

Tami asked....

"Do you have any brothers or sisters"?

Nope...just me! I am an only child!

"What is your favorite store to shop at"?

I ♥ Forever 21! They have the cutest clothes and are cheap!!! I need to go shopping next week!

Katie asked...

"What are you looking forward to about being a teacher"?

I cannot wait to decorate my classroom!! I think it is going to be so much fun! I am also looking forward to doing fun projects with students for the different holidays!

Lana asked...

"What is your favorite show to watch on TV"?

Hmm... I have tons of favorites!! I LOVE reality TV. Some of my favorite shows are American Idol, Desperate Housewives, Kendra, The Biggest Loser, Jon & Kate Plus 8, The Bachelor, and One Tree Hill.

"What is your favorite game day tradition"?

It would probably be doing all the yells and watching the jet fly over the stadium. Ha. I do not know if that is an actual tradition but I like that part!!

Lauren asked...

"What is your favorite beauty product"?

My favorite beauty product would probably be my Bare Minerals eyeshadow my friend Kristan gave me for my birthday this past year!

"What is your beauty routine"?

I LOVE makeup....I always have. I first use moisturizer so my foundation/powder will go on smoothly. For a foundation I usually use Clinique Superfit and for a powder I love the MAC Studio Fix. I have been using the Bare Minerals eyeshadow... my two favorites are true gold and 1990's. I use a little bit of lip gloss (also from Clinique) and I am ready to go!
