Riddle

In hopes to get more people to leave me comments, I'm posting a riddle today. Whoever gets it right first, wins! I don't know what you'll win though, really. Maybe a sense of accomplishment, or a million bucks. I don't know. If you want to try, leave a COMMENT!!!

Recently, Snow White's 7 Dwarves met up with 3 of their friends to go see the movie, Bambi. What order did they stand in line if:

Grumpy was in front of Dopey. Stumpy was behind Sneezy and Doc. Doc was in front of Droopy and Happy. Sleepy was behind Stumpy, Smelly, and Happy. Happy was in front of Sleepy, Smelly, and Bashful. Bashful was behind Smelly, Droopy and Sleepy. Sneezy was in front of Dopey. Smelly was in front of Grumpy, Stumpy and Sneezy. Dopey was in front of Droopy. Sleepy was in front of Grumpy and Bashful. Dopey was behind Sneezy, Doc and Sleepy. Stumpy was in front of Dopey. Smelly was behind Doc.

GOOD LUCK!

I AM, I AM!

I did a version of this post about a year ago and thought it would be interesting to see how much I've changed in the last year. I am, I am!

I am - Kendall. Who else would I be?
I think - about Gregor all the time.
I want - to be done with my Masters and have a better-paying teaching job.
I have - the greatest family ever!
I wish - that I could go to Europe tomorrow.
I hate - when my ADHD 7th graders don't take their Riddlin.
I miss - California. Not my job, but a lot of the people there. And the beach. Oh, i miss the beach.
I fear - drowning. Seriously, for a swimmer, that would be the worst way to die.
I feel - super excited and happy about the future!
I hear - My students daily anecdotes on junior high life.
I smell - Sensual Amber lotion on my hands.
I search - for cookie recipes and ideas for Christmas presents.
I wonder - when everything's gonna go down...
I regret - swearing in front of my siblings. I'm working on that.
I love - Gregor. My family. My friends. My job. My religion. Myself.
I care - about my students. I want them to understand the importance of education. A lot of them just don't get it. It drives me CRAZY!!!
I always - workout. I have to. I need the endorphins mega bad.
I am not - apathetic.
I believe - people can change. Especially myself.
I dance - with my siblings in my parents kitchen. We turn on the radio and go crazy!
I sing - all the time. That's another thing I love about my family. Last night we sang "Baby" for the millionth time and I still love it.
I don't always - get things done on time. I do my best, but I'm a procrastinator big time.
I write - lists. I have a to do list everyday and I make lists for events and ideas, etc.
I win - Nothing, really. I don't think I'm very lucky like that.
I lose - My drivers license annually. It's getting old, but for some reason, it just disappears.
I never - allow myself to be negative for more than an hour. Hopefully I'll someday get that down to never allowing myself to be negative period.
I listen - to pretty much any music I can get my hands on.
I can usually be found - at American Fork Junior or up in the mountains somewhere.
I'm scared - I won't reach my potential.
I read - everything! I love to read and always have 4-5 books I'm working on at a time.
I'm happy about - being in love with the man of my dreams!

FRIDAY

Sissy cussing

Welcome to Utah! Some people swear here, but really most people don't cuss a blue streak too often. Teaching junior high has brought some funny phrases to my knowledge and I thought I'd share them with the blogging world.

"Holy Flip-mother!"
"Fetch" or "Fetcher"
"Crud"
"Crap"
"Poop"
"Shizzle" or "shiz"
"Legitdectight"
"Duce"
"Garbage"
"Shart"
"Fut"
"F"
"Freakin"
"Be-otch"
"Beach"
"Biz-nazz"
"Damage"
"Rape"
"T-bag"

These people are amazingly creative. So great that we're promoting such language skills while these kids are so impressible. Great.

Month in Pictures (Sort of)

A lot has happened from 10/10/09 to 11/10/09, so even though I don't have a camera, I've got a few pics from friends and family from this crazy month!
The bridemaids and the Groom at C&L Peterson's wedding. We are HOT!

The whole fam-damily. Its crazy we added one more kid! Ha!
Me playing Kirst Farrell's guitar in October. Such a nice instrument!
This is my sweetie and me after stake conference, we had to take a picture for his mom.
Phone pictures aren't the best, but Gregor's cute so it doesn't matter.
A sunset over the city. Pretty cool.
Back to the wedding. My grandma ALWAYS pats us on the butt. I love that even a wedding doesn't change that!
I don't really know what's going on here, but this is a great example of how we siblings are with each other all the time.
Kate is SO PRETTY! I've got a gorgeous family.
The sibs minus Carly at the Mt. Timpanogos Temple. I love these people, they are amazing!

Good Music

I am a music junkie. I listen to every genre out there and my iTunes is pretty legit. I thought I'd compile a list of the top 10 albums I'm listening to right now...Here ya are!!!

1) Snow Patrol - Eyes Open. You're All I have and Chasing Cars are my favorites right now. SO AMAZING!
2) Taylor Swift - Fearless. You Belong With Me. 'Nuff said.
3) Love Happens Soundtrack. This album is an awesome mix of goodness.
4) Muse - The Resistance. Uprising and United State of Eurasia. USoE reminds me of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.
5) Coldplay - X&Y. I love Coldplay, they have this U2-ey sound but their own style. Fix You. Simply wonderful.
6) Evanescence - Fallen. This is an older album, but I've recently rediscovered its awesomeness.
7) Twilight and New Moon Soundtracks. Holy cow, I'm not the biggest fan of the books or the movies, but dang Gina! Stephanie Meyer can pick some good music. Highlights - Muse, Linkin Park, Paramore, Lykke Li, etc. Fabulous!
8) James Taylor - New Moon Shine. Another old album. JT is da man! Shed a Little Light and The Water is Wide. Beautiful music and powerful lyrics.
9) Kanye West - Late Registration. Even though he's kind of a tool, this album is pretty sweet. Get the edited version and you're smooth sailing. Gold Digger...she ain't messin' with no broke, broke.
10) Imogen Heap - Speak For Yourself & Eclipse. This woman is incredible. Her trans-like music is fun and interesting and totally gorgeous. Both of these albums are chill and have a retro feel to them.

I love getting new songs and hearing about new artists! Anyone with any suggestions, let me know, I'm totally down!

I HATE MONDAYS!

Did you see the movie Shrek 2? Remember the part where Shrek, Puss, and Donkey are sitting in the Poison Apple and Puss is like "I hate Mondays"? Yeah, I hate 'em, too.
