I finally figured out 100 things about myself
Here are two pic of my big face.
So quite awhile ago my whole family wrote 100 things about themselves and we later had a big get-together and had some good laughs getting to know each other better. I didn't do it. I was busy with finals/school at the time. So after reading Natali's 100 I was inspired to sit down and figure out 100 things about ME so here goes:
1. I am not patient, but I want to be.
2. I am allergic to cats, horses, grass and latex.
3. I never kissed a boy in high school. My fist kiss was when I was 19.
4. I used to want to become an Architect, but I am just not good at math at all.
5. I am a horrible decision maker. Take away all the options and the better my nerves are. Choices can be overwhelming for me at times. I guess I have committment issues. In fact there are a few store that know me by name because I make numerous returns.
6. When I graduated from high school my good 'ole dad told me that i should got to school for dental hygiene. I look at him and said "I will never do that. I hate dental offices." I am now, 8 years later, a Registered Dental Hygienist. HOOT! HOOT!
7. I would rather not remember most of high school. Glad it's over
8. I went to SUU in Cedar City Ut. for my fist year of college. That is where I met my dear friend Megan Clark. I used to have a crush on her now husband. haaahaa
9. The only picture I ever drew was a giraffe in 9th grade art class. okay, okay I had a lot of help from Mr. Diverse.
10. I have been doing Tae Bo with my personal trainer Billy "blood fists" Banks since 7 grade. In fact I have had to keep hauling my mini tv around with me over the years because it has a VHS player on it. I love to work out, but not in gyms!! HI YAHH!
11. I only take pills (ie Ibuprofen, aspirin) on rare occasions. Nope, not much of a pill popper. My Dad instilled in me that if you have a headache you should probably go to sleep. You got the headache for a reason and your body is telling you to take care of yourself.
12. I like to think I can cook, not bake, there is a difference. Baking is like brownies and cakes. I like coming up with yummy meals with whatever might be in the fridge.
13. People say that I am accident prone. I disagree. Its just that when something does happen it is always MAJOR that's all.
14. I absolutely love the sour candy Sour Patch kids. Once while studying for boards I literally ate HALF of a COSTCO size bag. I ate myself sick and later yammied! I still eat sour patch kids.
15. Speaking of up-chucking, once my roommates and I , made an ongoing list of all the different words used to describe throwing up.
16. Is it weird that in H.S. my best friends were guys, Ster, Matt, Trey?
17. I am not afraid of bugs, spiders, critters or getting a little dirty.
18. I absolutely loath being cold.
19.I played the flute in middle school.
20. I truly appreciate the talents and abilities of others. I love watching performances of many kinds, singing, dancing, acting, instrument playing, athletics, photography, art, scrap booking ect. I try to be cultured. wink
21. My brother Mark is my hero. I admire the way he has lived his life.
22. The summer Olympic gymnastics fascinate me. The Olympics in general fascinate me.
24. I truly believe, when it comes to friends, its not quantity its quality! I have met kindred spirits in my life that I will never forget. You know who you are.
24. My favorite apostle is Elder Eyring. He reminds me of my grandpa Crosby at times. I just love him
25. I used to spend my summers tending ostriches meaning, monitoring an incubator full of eggs, hatching chicks, hauling 5 gallon buckets of water to feeders, cleaning pen of poop and woke up at 6 am daily to to so.
26. My Dad says that gold runs through my veins. In all honestly, I just appreciate fine craftsmanship and quality.
27. When I was in 5th grade I was out of school for 3 weeks with a ruptured appendix. I almost died of toxic shock. A quart of infection was removed from my organs.
28. The movie Labyrinth used to scare me. In fact i do NOT like scary movies at all.
29. I have a big scar on every single appendage from various adventures through out my life.
30. I can't name a food i will not eat. I have my preferences, but will basically eat anything. In fact, my co-workers used to call me the garbage disposal.
31. I love music, not screaming, of all genres and I listen to it really loud. I can even appreciate the screaming kind on some days!!!!
32. I certainly care about what is going on in politics and our world and like to be informed, but i cannot stand watching the news constantly. oops.
33. I do not watch much TV but do waste time blogging and looking up randomness on the Internet.
34. Some may hate it, but I am not a slave to my phone. I bought it as a convince for me and if I am in the middle of living my life, I will not answer the phone (this is circumstantial).
35. I love HGTV. I think the shows inspire people to create beautiful things.
36. In dental hygiene school, my clinic group described me as creative, caring, "real" and optimistic.
37. I am very clean and organized. (barry would say EXTREMELY) When I was dating Barry I once spent a day organizing his closet in rainbow order. I couldn't help myself. I haven't always been organized. I had some help (THANKS ERIN!)
38. It's not very hard to get under my skin. I'm working on this.
39. Don't stone me, but I never had a desire to go to BYU nor live in Provo. Just not my gig.
40. I do not prefer the nic name Lisa Lou. I have tried to train my family to call me at least Lisa Nae (middle name is ReNae).
41. My husband makes fun of me because I save store bought plastic bottles, wash and reused them.
42. I consider myself a protective sister. I once wrote one of my sisters missionary companions to "put her in her place"-nicely when she was not treating my sister very kind.
43. Learning is great. I am an advocate of education, but the regiment of classes and home work is not my favorite position to be in.
44. I have a retained deciduous tooth- T. This is a baby tooth that I never lost and was never replaced with another tooth.
45. I once jumped a 100 (yes we measured) foot cliff into water before 4 other guys. Boy aren't i brave.
46. Do or don't be grossed out-- I am a picker. I like to pick on things.
47. I've been told I'm really tough. I tolerate physical pain very well. I actually had my wisdom teeth taken out with NO ANESTHETIC. Dr. Jenkins was amazed.
48. I broke my nose my freshman year of HS doing a back handspring on the basketball court.
49. Of my favorite memories, one of my favorites is of my Grandma Jo when my sisters and I used to play the funny face game with her. We would stand back to back, count to 3, spin around and make the funniest/ugliest face we could. Grandma would make the SAME face every time. We got a kick out of that.
50. I like a clean cut guy. YOU HEAR THAT HUSBAND!! WINK
51. I think I am a good poet.
52. I attended one year of Respiratory therapy school. Hospitals are not a good match for me. I don't enjoy being caged up for 12 hours straight and it didn't help that I gave a man his last breath. I didn't want to "get used to" death.
53. When I am hungry or tired or hungry and tired you should probably feed me or put me to bed QUICK.
54. I watched Napolean Dynamite approximately 13 times IN theatres.
55. I have a very complicated personality according to my husband.
56. Having the constant support and love of my family is a huge part of my life. I love them dearly.
57. When it comes to sympathy, well, I need to work on being more sympathetic. I guess I was raised with the attitude-- get up, do it again, you're fine, stop crying. I had 3 older brothers that when i did get hurt the would hold me down and say straight in my face "STOP CRYING!" or "DON'T CRY. YOU ARE TOUGHER THAN THAT!" Yes, I am that girl that rolls her eyes at "weeny girls" that wine about little "ouchys"

60. I am a very particular individual. I (for the most part) know what i'm gonna like and dislike. I will usually have an idea ow how I'd like something to turn out and when it doesn't, I tend to be disappointed.
61. I once watched a certain movie with Barry and cried for 15 min after it was over. No lie. Ask him. It was one of his favorite movies so No it was not a chick flick or a love story.
62. I am overly self conscious about the right side of my face for two reasons (not that the first isn't reason enough) #1, The right side of my face was ripped off in a car accident where I had 1,100 stitches placed in an 8 hour surgery. #2. I broke my nose.
63. I love giving gifts. It is fun for me.
64. I was told by an optometrist, after relentless attempts at wearing contact lenses, that my eyes were too sensitive. Just like my heart. wipe a tear.

73. I am a little GREEN. Yup. I like recycling, using things over, not wasting, not littering, using non aerosol products and such. not too bad.

I can't believe how much of that I knew! Even after eight years of not being around each other. Can you believe we graduated eight years ago! Most surprising? #7. I feel the same way!!! We should have hung out more. We probably could have got along great! But I don't want to go back. Let's just look forward...
I'm so impressed that I knew a lot of those and kept finding myself nodding in agreement and thinking, "Yup, that's my Lisa!" Oh, I love you my little summer squash!
