Five Things Challenge

Five things I was doing 10 years ago...

I have to say that I don't love the fact that I have a "10 years ago" to write about...What? I'm not 18 anymore?

1. I had just decided that I wanted to be a free-lance photographer for National Geographic (My family had recently taken an impromptu trip to Glacier...when we got in the car, we had no idea where we were headed. We ended up in Glacier and spent the night in Kallispell...we hadn't even brought a change of clothes because we hadn't planned on spending the night anywhere. It was on that trip, surrounded by the beautiful autumn colors at Lake Macdonald, that I decided I wanted to be a photographer...I got my Nikon SLR for my 16th birthday about 6 months later.)

2. I was really involved in Pep Band...my favorite extra-curricular activity

3. I was counting down the days to my 16th birthday, even though I didn't go on my first "real" date until I was a freshman at BYU (blind dates to prom don't count as "real dates"!!)

4. My friend, Jennifer, and I decided to "hit the weight room" everyday after school in preparation for tennis season in the spring...yeah, that lasted like two days!

5. I was super obsessed with my grades, I just HAD to get into BYU!

3. Spending too much time on ebay (I've only bought two things my whole life, but I spend a lot of time just looking at things)
