How many of these skills do you have?

I really think some of these tips could come in handy...like knowing how to handle the police! I might not have as many speeding tickets to my name if I had known this information a little earlier in life!!!

Funky Chicken

Tonight at the gym I decided to try something a little different! A new class just started at my gym called ZUMBA and from what I've heard it's all the new craze. Everyone had been hyping it up for the last few weeks, so I wanted to see what it was all about. I thought my years of experience perfecting the Funky Chicken were going to come in handy...little did I realize I would need some awesome rib cage popping, hip shaking, Beyonce-like moves (somehow I just wasn't blessed with those moves). I swear everytime I looked down at the weight floor below me (yes, I was standing right next to the window) people were looking at me (probably just in my mind). I hope they had as much fun watching me as I had fun doing it. I think it was worth the hype...I just can't wait to take my roommate who actually knows how to shake-it!!!

Christmas in 2009.

I was sent a present in early December, but it didn't reach my doorstep until this week.

Winter Commute...

Notice how fast I'm going?

Just to give you an idea of what my winter commute looks like.

I recently read on a forward I received that it is impossible to lick your own elbow. I'm pretty sure that with a little practice I could make this happen...

What's the Sign for Blog?

Considering the fact that I spend my whole lunch hour eating and blog stalking, I thought I would be a fairly good blogger...you know the kind of blogger that posts something new and exciting almost daily...boy was I WRONG!

This feels about the same as when I signed up for an American Sign Language class at BYU. Prior to attending my first class that semester, I had convinced myself that ASL was a hidden talent of mine and that I was going to be a natural. Ha! WRONG AGAIN! Turns out I was the second worst in the class (ok, i don't know that for sure, but there was a boy that was really really bad and I'm just hoping I was a little better than him)!

The good news about this all is that despite my weak attempts at being an ASL master...I still managed to pull a good grade in that class. So, even though i'm not being graded on my blogging skills, I think I can pull through this blogging slump and improve my blogging ways! Wish me luck!
