Hello Christmas vacation!

Hi! Remember me? Remember that time I had a blog. Life has been super crazy busy the past few weeks that keeping up with this blog and even reading blogs was kind of the last thing on my mind. Between my normal classes and covering the high school class, I have been keeping busy. And when I am not at school, I am working on the weekends at the restaurant. Today is the first day I came home and did NOT have to worry about going to work!! At least until Friday. PTL!

I still have a mountain of gifts to wrap (from me to other people and for other people from other people...aka my family's gifts to each other) so I usually watch Christmas movies while I do it. My favorites:

Such a classic! I love when they do the marathon of this. To me, it is not the Christmas season without watching it multiple times. I actually bought the DVD last year. My favorite parts are:

Next, I always love watching Chevy Chase in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation! I can't remember if I bought it on DVD so I may have to this year!

And who does not love Will Ferrell in "Elf"?!

And of course, Home Alone! Some people might not consider this a classic Christmas movie, but I do!

What are some of your favorites? Hopefully I will be back to posting regularly on the blog soon, especially over break since I have some time off. And i can catch up on my blog reading.

{1} What is your favorite genre of music?

I would honestly have to say probably pop music. I love those catchy tunes that "get stuck in your head." Most of my iTunes is pop music (Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, One Direction, etc) with a mix of country (which comes in as a close second) and rap. My taste is ALL over the place!!


{2} What is your favorite genre of movies?
Comedy and drama. Two of my favorites:

 

{3} Do you watch reality TV? If so, what was the first show you remember watching?

Survivor: Australian Outback.   I remember my mom being in a pool to see who won and I watched it to see how the person she got did (who was Elizabeth Hasselback....many moons ago!!). Now, I have my "guilty pleasure" reality TV shows!

{4} Who is an actress you'd want to be BFFs with?

 Hands down...Jennifer Aniston!!

{5} Who is an actor you would be happy to be stuck with on an island?

Channing Tatum!!!

{Sunday Social - Week 70!}

Sunday Social has become one of my favorite weekly link ups since Ashley & Neely started it over a year ago!! Who can believe it is week 70 of this link up?!

This week's questions are all about middle school/high school.

1. What were you like in middle school and high school?

I seriously was super shy and just hung out with my small circle of friends. I wasn't one of the "popular" ones and I was certainly not a jock. I just went to school, got good grades, was a major NERD and went to dance classes. I did a complete 180 when I got to college!

2. What were your favorite past times?
I enjoyed hanging out with my friends! We used to go to the beach via the ferry in our town in the summer, spend the day there, and then come home for the $4 movie night at the theater in our town. Perks of being in a small town. When I was not with my friends, I enjoyed being at the dance studio. It was like a second home!

3. What songs were your obsessed with?
Anything by *NSYNC, Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne (Sk8er Boy anyone?), Jessica Simpson, Ashlee Simpson, and Ryan Cabrera. I still have all of them on my iTunes!

4. What fashion statement do you look back and cringe?
Umm, gosh, this is kind of hard. Probably the whole Pac Sun phase. Ridiculously priced!

5. Who was your celeb crush?
I was obsessed with Brad Pitt because I was jealous he was married to Jennifer Aniston (my main girl crush)...but then he was a homewrecker and shacked up with Angelina Jolie who I can't stand. And I was also obsessed with Jake Gyllenhaal. Still am!

6. What was your favorite movie?
I am having such a hard time remembering this! I loved Legally Blonde, Bring It On, Crossroads (yes, the Britney Spears movie!), A Walk to Remember and Now & Then. Oh, and Center Stage!

Now & Then

Center Stage

Legally Blonde
