Because I Got Tagged...
Meme Time! herroyaldemones tagged me. :P
16 Things
Once you’ve been tagged, you have to write a note with 16 random things - shortcomings, facts, habits or goals about you. At the end choose 16 people as many as you want to be tagged, listing their names and why you chose them. You have to tag the person who tagged you.
1. I lack confidence. But I know how to get things done.
2. I worry too much about what other people think. I mean, it's good to consider the opinions of others, etc., but I think I worry too much about it.
3. Sometimes I have a hard time making sure I tell my friends how much they mean to me.
4. During high school I worked as a lifeguard and swim instructor. I was also on the high school swim team (my specialty: backstroke and freestyle). Janet Evans was my hero. I also swam during my freshman year of college but I injured my shoulder and had to quit, I was seriously devastated.
5. I have a Bachelor's Degree of Science in Physical Education (emphasis - Sports Medicine). But I work as a stay-at-home-mom and I don't like sports as much as I used to. :P I mean, I like sports, but I'm not as into them like I was during college (I used to watch a ton of football, for example). Now I mainly watch the Olympics and some tennis, but that's about it.
6. It annoys me when people think that because I have a degree in Sports Medicine means I am expert on sports and how they are played. I did not study coaching, but injury management. It's not the same thing...at all.
7. I studied with cadavers (aka: dead bodies). It was interesting but smelled really bad.
8. I hardly ever wear make-up, but I am really fussy about my hair.
9. I have a goal in life not to over schedule my kids.
10. The best way to get me to do something is to tell me I can't do it. My reaction is usually, "Oh yeah? Watch me!".
11. I want to write a novel. I've started one twice, but I think I'm going to have to scrap it and start yet again. It's a fantasy novel aimed at the 9-12 age group. My biggest problem: I can't think of a good ending. :P
12. I don't drink. I tried beer once, I thought it smelled like pee. I think smoking is the nastiest habit ever, I honestly don't understand why people do it.
13. Sometimes I think it would be nice to have another baby. Then I remember the morning sickness, the sleepless nights, potty training...and I snap out of it and say, "No way!"
14. I have Grave's Disease. I also have Hashimoto's Disease. This basically means my thyroid gland doesn't stand a chance! I take replacement thyroid hormones every day to deal with this, it's no big deal...but I do get tired easily which makes me feel older then I am.
15. I have a minor phone phobia. Which is really strange because during high school my mom could not get me off the phone.
16. I have never sent a text message to anyone. I'm not even sure I know how, although I could probably figure it out if I had to.
I tag...whoever wants to do this (most people I know have been tagged already). Enjoy! :D
