About Me: Six of my "Quirks"

Ok, so Holly Archuleta (Jordan's FABULOUS cousin) tagged me...I'm "IT" she said. I always thought I was an "IT" girl, but it IS nice to hear it from someone other than myself and maybe my Mom. :)

And the rules are:1. List six quirks, habits, or unknown things about yourself.2.Tag three other people3. Let those three people know on their blog that they have been tagged. And that's all as far as I know!

1. I don't like Swedish Fish OR Red Vines. I know, it's a crime becuase the whole WORLD seems to like them, but what can I say...they're GROSS! They taste like extra-chewy melted candle wax! Twizzlers ANY DAY, even the black ones. Although, I'd rather do gummy bears, cinnamon bears or anything chocolate instead.

2. Ok, I have to admit this unknown, possibly detrimental-to-my-eternal-salvation fact: I don't really like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. They're just a little too....old...for me. I'd way rather listen to EFY on Sunday. I also don't like a LOT of hymns in our hymnbook, like "In Our Lovely Deseret," "Count your Blessings," and "Scatter Sunshine..." yuck. I like some other ones though, I'm not THAT much of a heathen!

3. Here goes...I have to admit that I LOVE reality TV. Shows I watch include: Project Runway, Amazing Race, .....the....Bachelor (just the last few seasons, promise...and I mostly just watch it to make fun of the girls falling all over themselves!!), ...America's Next Top Model (I know, I'm waaay to old to be watching that, but I love it..., and well, of course, American Idol. I know, they're all very silly. But I can't help it!! I'm a silly girl I guess!! (at least I don't watch "The Hills"..hehe)

4. Ok, this is embarrassing and gross, but I KNOW I'm not alone in this!! I love getting my husband's zits (well, my own too, but it's fun to do his). Sometimes, in a moment of "niceness" he will allow me to get one or two...usually though, in exchange for a nice long back massage... My aunt actually PAYS her kids like $20 for each blackhead she can get...I can TOTALLY relate...it's bad. An addiction, I must say.

5. If I were to do school over again, I would have majored in Interior Design, and not worried about how competitive the program was at BYU. Instead, I majored in advertising, and it's good, but I think the grass is greener in Interior Design. I totally love decorating, so now I just help my friends decorate their houses (since I'm pretty much done with mine! But I wish I had more expertise, that's for sure!! Oh, and I also have this dream to have like 5 or six different houses, condos, lofts or whatever...because I can't seem to decide on a STYLE I like. I really like ultra modern, but it wouldn't work for my home now, I like Tuscan, Spanish, Contemporary, Traditional, but I want to do them ALL, so I have to have a few different houses to do them in...maybe I should just be a designer...

6. Ok, now it's time for the big fear: Past fear: Before I was married my biggest fear was to marry someone who would come out of the closet after three kids or be addicted to pornography. Now that I AM married to the most wonderful man in the world, I don't worry TOO much about that! Well, I guess I don't have any quirky fears, to be honest...but here's a Present dumb fear: I really worry about teaching Gospel Doctrine..that my class will get BORED. I try to make it not boring. I don't want to be perceived as the "boring" teacher... you know? I want people to feel like "oh good, Janessa's teaching today!" And people other than my husband or best friend, hahaah... I'm boring, I know.

That's me in a nutshell! I'm sure there are many other weird quirks I could bore you with, but as you know, I don't like to bore people, so I'll end...HERE. :)
