The Answer to my question of the week...and other random suff

My question of the week was: Which Disney character am I good at impersonating?
The answer is.....Mater, from Cars!!!

I can do the teeth. I can kind of do his voice, but Becca is best at that. That's one of my favorite movies as well. I it sooo funny! Speaking of movies. We just watched Cloverfield. It was okay. It had a weird ending though. It wasn't that scary either.

I am pretty much done with this semester. I have to write 2 more papers and I'll be done for about a week and a half. Then I start summer sememster. I'm taking 15 credit hours. Hopefuly it goes okay. I excited for my break because I get to spend some time with my family. On Thursday the 8th, it is Cameron/Daddy day. I'm excited. I'm going to take him to the zoo, then we will play outside for a while. It's going to be great. This weekend, my dad and I are going to watch the Lord of the Rings series--the full length version. It is going to be awesome.

So today we went outside and Cameron ran around for about 3 hours. It was a long, but fun day outside. He had so much energy. Becca and I got tired just watching him. We love it here. There are so many nice couples that live here, and it is great. We have made so many new friends. Well, that's about all I have to say about that....bye!

The answer and story behind my question of the week...and other random stuff....

My question of the week was: What toy did we just discover that Cameron is deathly afraid of?
The answer is...a plastic walking zebra!!

So we were down at Becca's parents house last weekend, and we found out that Cameron doesn't like the walking zebra that grandma has. He is okay with it if it not moving, but once it moves, he runs away. It's really funny, but kind of sad. We love our little Cameroo. He's so funny!!! We'll try to get a video of is sometime.

So I have finals all week next week and then one the week after that, then I have about a week and a half break before I start summer semester. I am planning on taking a full load this summer, just to get done sooner. Anywho...hope you all have a good day.

The Answer to the question of the week...

Here is the answer to my question of the week: Which of the following did I NOT eat in Korea?
The answer is....steamed silkworm larvae or bundegi in Korean.

I never ate bundegi...and I never will. It is just sick and wrong. Becca never ate it either, because we wouldn't be able to get close enough to buy it anyway because it stunk up the whole street. It smells so bad!!!! I had dog a couple of times, and it isn't very good either. It tastes like old, bitter roast beef. I also ate pig intestines boiled in blood, or soondae. At first I liked it because I didn't know what it was, but once I found out I almost threw it all up and I could never bring myself to try it again. Becca said that she actually liked it when she didn't know what it was. And the last one, squid jerky, was my favorite. It was actually pretty good. There would be little side stands that sold it, and we would get some. Not too bad at all.

I miss Korea and the food there...(except for 3 of the things above). Congrats to the 3 people who guessed right! Hope you enjoyed this weeks question. Have a great day!

The answer and the story behind my question of the week...

My question of the week was: How many licks did it take me to get all of the candy off of a tootsie pop? The correct answer is...1118!!

The following is a true story...

It all started when I was on the tour bus to drive 3 hours south of Salt Lake City. I was in high school, and we were going on a 3 day stake youth activity down to the R & R Ranch. One of my friends gave me a tootsie pop, and I thought, "hey, we have 3 hours to do nothing, so why don't I just lick all of the candy off to the tootsie pop." I don't know why I just didn't see how many licks it took to get to the center of the tootsie pop. Perhaps it was my original plan to lick to the center, but I do not remember. Anywho....So I counted for real...and it took me exactly 1118 licks to get all of the candy off of the tootsie pop so that only the tootsie roll part was visable! I know, I have no life, but what can I say?...I was in high school.

Thanks to all who participated this weeks poll. Congrats to the two who got it right! Your reward is....a big old pat on the back...(as I didn't not prepare any real reward). Perhaps one day I see how long it take me to get to the center.

Have a great day!

My Blog Background

If any of you were wondering what my background is supposed to be, it is Hogwarts. I found it on-line and thought I'd put that on my blog. I thought it was a flippin' sweet drawing of Hogwarts! Anyway....just if anyone were wondering.

If any of you want to read a good, easy reading book, I'd recommend either The Tale of Despereaux or Crispin the Cross of Lead. I read them in my Children's Literature class and really enjoyed them. Hope you all have a great day!!!
