15 Day Challenge - Day 1

I like any excuse to have 15 blog post topics given to me, so when I came across the 15 Day Challenge I thought I would give it a shot.  Let's see if I can get 'er done!


So Day 1 is List 15 fun facts about yourself.  I'm a bit slow on the get go here, but better late than never!

I always have trouble thinking up fun facts so hopefully I can come up with 15 of them.

1. I legit thought I was going to marry Adam Gregory when I was younger.  (He is a Canadian country music singer).  I thought this because he was Canadian instead of American so I figured my chances were way higher.  After meeting him 5 times and never having him remember my name I gave up on the dream.

2. I am a huge nerd.  I used to ask my teacher to give me homework in Grade 3.  Who does that?

3.  I went to France on an exchange in Grade 11. It was one of the most trying and fantastic experiences of my life.  Maybe I will share more about it someday.  But that would require hooking up my scanner to scan in pictures since it was before the days of the digital camera.

4.  I have an unnatural obsession with celebrity life. I seem to think that it matters. 

5. I was in a singing group in Grade 5.  We wanted to be the next Spice Girls.  We didn't succeed. 

6. I eat raw cookie dough likes it's my job.  We always sold these tubs of cookie dough as a fundraiser for skating, and most of the time I never make any of the cookies.  It drives my mom nuts.  But if I like it better raw, why would I cook them?

7.  I'm definitely an introvert.  But once you get to know me I might not shut up. 

8.  I am a homebody.  My idea of a good Saturday night is if Ryan goes out with his friends and I am left to my own devices.  It's ok if he stays with me too, I just don't get to watch a chick flick then.

9.  I can't decide whether I love the Real Housewives because I want to be them, I'm glad I'm not them, or a combination of both.

10.  I am working towards my CGA (Certified General Accountant) designation.  School seems to be neverending.  I question most days whether I will ever actually be done.

11. I would really love to have twins.  2 babies, one pregnancy.  I think so.  Plus then I can talk Ryan into 3 babies when he only wants 2.

12. My favourite movies (currently) are The Wedding Date and Because I Said So.  I don't know what it is about them, but I can just watch them over and over.

13.  My dream is to go to Harry Potter land.  And I want to buy The Harry Potter Snuggie and The Magic Wand remote.  I told you I was a nerd.

14. I had a miduniversity crisis and applied to be a flight attendant.  I didn't get the job.

15.  I love to bake.  But my creations don't always turn out well. 

I did it!  So proud of myself.  Hopefully I can keep it up for the next 15 days!

  3. I want that remote! Seriously. Coolest thing ever. I've been to a few Harry Potter sights! I saw Platform 9 3/4 and the rooms in Oxford where they filmed the sorting scene and the staircase scene right before it from the first movie. And I saw the cafe in Edinburgh that is famously where it all started and where JK Rowling often wrote. :)

    Spice girls were huge for me in 5th grade too. All the little girl cliques made themselves into the Spice Girls. I was the last to join mine, so I had to be Posh because she was the only one left. Ha.

  4. I always say I hope I have twins! Mostly because I think children are a blessing, but pregnancy itself sounds awful. So if you can get a 2 for 1 deal, all the better! And I know it's more work when they're little, but it'll be even easier as they grow up!
