Some Answers

So, I generally don't do these things because they are boring and obnoxious but this one made me want to answer these questions. Quite frankly, because they're interesting, but also because my good friend Heather tagged me, and I don't talk to her enough as it is. So, I'll be answering her questions and posting this on her facebook as well as mine. Without further ado...

Questions from Momentz of Mezz

If you could take a walk in a celebrity’s shoes for a day, who would you choose and why?

Gosh, that's a tough one. I would have to say Holly Marie Combs. Have you seen the lady? She's had 3 kids, 2 of them which I believe were C-sections and she still looks 25. What's her secret???

Chocolate or vanilla?

Chocolate all the way. Vanilla is just so bland. However, there is such a thing as too much chocolate...

What is your favorite song and why?

Unfortunately that's one thing I can't answer. It constantly changes. I'm not one for a single type of genre or artist.

Dogs or cats? (Don’t make me unfollow you.)

Dogs. Absolutely. And I'm not just saying that. Hello-blog the dog! Not the cat...

Which part of Fear Factor would you be the worst at: the physical activity, the gross stuff, or the dare devil stunts? The best at?

Although I'm pretty squeamish, probably the physical activity. I tell you, 3 words. OUT. OF. SHAPE. I can barely keep up with my dogs.

What is one strange habit you have? Where did it come from?

I have to eat everything evenly. If I eat a sandwich, half is chewed on the right side of my mouth the other on the left. 10 skittles? 5 on one side; 5 on the other. Not sure why, I think that's just one of my OCD things.

If you were in a fire, apart from people and animals, what 5 things would you grab first if you had the time (in order)?

My birth certificate. My iPhone. My laptop. My heart pillow. My scrapbook.

Well, there you have it. Hope I answered them accurately. I won't be tagging anyone else since I know not everyone likes these things. Cookie time for me. I blogged! Woohoo :)

Getting edumercated...

...or something of that sort. Last week I had my first two tests, and they went well actually. Math could have gone a bit better but I was still happy with the outcome and I rocked Toxicology. Tomorrow I've got to brave through Political Science and Organic Chemistry but hopefully those will go well. I feel pretty prepared. Let's hope I'm right. We had a good weekend visiting Houston and enjoyed 3 hours at the dog park yesterday. I tired the Omelette Dog out....the border collie was another story. ;) They really did enjoy it though. Although I've been dying to do some more agility and unfortunately the show I was planning on for my birthday has been cancelled, I realized just how much I enjoyed the weekend and the time at the park. My dogs got muddy and disgusting, had the biggest grins on their faces, and zoomed to their little hearts' content. This quote showed up on my Facebook feed the other day, and I couldn't help but relate how much my dogs and their general happiness means to me and how this describes it. Not so much with being apart from them, but no matter what we're doing together. :) Love my Omelette and my Monster. Yes, that's Vengeance's nickname...Monster.

I kind of couldn't help but dub him that since he's finally discovered the "joy" of his teeth and thinks that destroying everything is super fun. So far it's been the underside of my bed, part of the carpet, and one of my bathroom rugs. The latter two were while he was in his wire kennel. Needless to say, I brought the airline kennel back this weekend so that he can't slide out the tray any more or get to anything around the kennel. We'll see how it works. Regardless, he's still a super puppy and trying very hard. He's got this sudden absolutely love for fetching and playing ball. It's a nice easy way to tire him out so I can't complain. Plus, I've got to admit, it's nice to have a dog that can make a game out of any toy there is. Shimmer is the snuggling pro. I've got two opposites but that's ok. They're ying and yang but they fit together perfectly and a tiny part of me is part of them in each and every way.

Alright, I think I've rambled on enough now and distracted myself from studying. I should probably get back to trying to be a good and smart student.

At least I posted something on the blog again! Brownie points for me. :)

What's been happening!

Wow, haven't updated in a while. Ok, so I have a good reason. The new semester started haha. So far it's been going well. I like my schedule, all my professors are good, and Shimmer is working great. Just ordered her a new vest last night actually. I'll have to post pictures once I get it. The other one we have is very simple and unfortunately has been wanting to fall apart lately for one reason or another. It'll be our back up harness. Vengeance is growing like a weed. He measured 17.75" one week ago at the USDAA trial. Curious to see how much he'll grow. 6 months now and crazy as ever. Love that little nut. Shimmer did well at the trial but I have yet to post the video thanks to the slow internet connection here I've had a lack of motivation. In other news, lots of clubs this semester. Of course I had to join Pre-Vet Society again. Then the roommates and I are doing the Horsemen's Association which will be awesome considering we'll get some extra horse experience. The last one is the Herpetology Society. I didn't realize how much fun I would have. Two people from the Herp Society were at pre-vet and introduced us to their corn snakes. What can I say? I'm hooked. I had a blast at the Herpetology meeting and am now getting a corn snake. The president/breeder is planning on sending pictures this weekend and hopefully I'll have my new addition soon! Now to think of names....some people think I'm crazy for getting a snake, but they really are fascinating and sweet creatures. Extremely social and docile. More new animal experiences. Here is me and the roomies at the meeting on Thursday! These were all ball pythons though.Aside from that I've been doing homework, homework, and uh...oh yeah, more homework. But, I'm trying to get ahead with online stuff so that these upcoming test weeks go well with plenty of study time. I don't even think I really have anything else too exciting to talk about. Which is unfortunate...but that's because school has had me so focused lately. I'll definitely try and update some after my tests though. I'll have to introduce the snake to the blog world! Not sure if it'll be a boy or girl yet or the color. Either way, it'll be a kickass addition to the household. Ginny is getting a corn too and Dani wants to get a ball python in the near future. 4 dogs, 1 bunny, fish, and 3 snakes coming up. We promise we're sane. We're just pre-vet students. What would you expect!?
