Three things that scare me:

  • Waking up and not knowing where I am
  • Being stuck in the same place/job for more than 10 years
  • Eating live things (though I've done it)

Three people who make me laugh:

  • My best friend
  • My 17 year old brother
  • Dave Barry (I'm addicted to his columns)

Three things I love:

  • Being spontaneous
  • Carbs (ie Cheetos and Mint choc chip ice cream)
  • Traveling

Three things I hate:

  • Fake conversations
  • Text messaging-too tedious
  • Driving in snow

Three things I don't understand:

  • Spanish grammar
  • How to whistle
  • How to lie convincingly

Three things on my desk:

  • Far too many pictures (of friends, family, Mexico, etc.)
  • Ticket stubs from concerts (John Mayer, Disturbed, and Rascal Flatts.)
  • My SPAM shot glass from the Spam Museum in Minnesota

Three things I'm doing right now:

  • Filling out stacks of forms for my Chilean VISA
  • Helping my little sister plan her 50's Bday party
  • Wondering how I will speak nothing but Spanish for five months!

Three things I want to do before I die:

  • See as many countries/landmarks as possible
  • Read all the books English majors are supposed to have read
  • Learn how to drive cars with manual transmission

Three ways to describe my personality:

  • Annoyingly enthusiastic
  • Observant
  • Patient (as anyone who has ever worked with kids has to be!)

Three things I can't do:

  • Crack my knuckles
  • Handle confrontation
  • Make grilled cheese without burning it
