friday five

1. What does it say in the signature line of your emails?
-my signature is plain and simple, it says -Andrea :) or something like that with my full name underneath.

2. Did you have a senior quote in your high school yearbook? What was it? If you haven't graduated yet, what would you like your quote to be?
-haha! our school have senior quotes? don't get me wrong, we had a great yearbook, but it seems almost, 1950ish to have a quote put in the yearbook...like some sort of patriot quote or something that you would read in those old things. plus, what if you said something that turns out to be stupid? i wouldn't want to be remembered the rest of my life as the person who said the stupid quote in the yearbook...not that that matters or anything...

3. If you had vanity plates on your car, what would they read? If you already have them, what do they say?
-either ANDI or SWIMMER or BAKSTRK (backstroke) or DOLPHIN

4. Have you received any gifts with messages engraved upon them? What did the inscription say?
-not that i can think of...but if you really wanted to know, it would involve me sorting through the box of andi's stuff...and then i could tell you

5. What would you like your epitaph to be?
-eh...too early to think about that...i hope! anyways...in honor of my favorite sign, mine can read "don't even THINK about parking here"

unfortunatly blogspeak went down. fortunatly haloscan picked them back up! we know have comments back up and running so leave a comment today!

comments to julie :)

i just got off the phone with you, but i hadn't read this otherwise i would have said something! and since comments are down, this is my comments messages to you! god knows i love my martini glasses and so do you, thanks for thinking of me! you can see why julie thought of me here.

also, julie, the feelings you described that you had while being at a lutheran worship? that's why i love being a lutheran :)

sorry...but i was enjoying my break!

sorry to everyone, as i haven't blogged in an extremely long time. i had a very good break though, besides getting sick, so that's going to be my excuse. here are some of the numerous exciting things that have happened to me over break:

-well, this one isn't so exciting, but i stayed in bemidji and worked until xmas eve. then i drove all the way home. but it was a good drive and i made lots of money!
-i'm officialy done at BBW, unless they need extra help...yay!
-i got a new job! you can now call me COACH ANDI! i'm coaching the Bemidji Area Super Swimmers, also known as BASS...that is as soon as i update my lifeguard certifications...
-i got sick...with the flu. no fun at all. and to make matters worse, my car wouldn't start when i wanted to go to the doctor since it was so cold out, and no one was up at the house to take me there...but i got there eventually.
-i chopped my hair ... it's so damn cute! i don't think i've been this happy with my hair in awhile...probably since the last time i got my perm. my mom is still convinced however that i should never get a perm again because i look nice with straight hair. i beg to differ...unless i have this haircut!
-i got a cd player for my car and now i can blast my cds as loud as i want!...as long as no one else is in the car...maybe :)

but that's about it besides working my butt off at webct. i worked a total of 10.5 hours yesterday, and not just for myself, it was all for the teachers! otherwise i so would've been out of there by 6. o well...extra money!

i guess the only other news is that for the first time in a long long time i remembered a dream from this morning...it was one of those makes you feel all warm and good on the inside...it was just good!
