Hello!

So I was helping Jon study for his anatomy quiz, and I was wondering what I should post about..

Maybe our weekend (it was surprisingly eventful..), the song by One Direction that I caught Jon singing one morning (I didn't even know he knew that song), or how excited I am for Valentines Day already (I got Jon the best gift!)

But then I got this email from a super cute girl named Tessa from Life and Loveliness, who nominated me for the Liebster award.

I'm sure most of you know what it is, but basically it's given to bloggers who are up and coming in the blogosphere, and it's a win-win because now I have something to post about:)

So go visit Tessa's blog! She is a beautiful writer and person. That's the point of this award, to help you meet new bloggers that you love:)

Now I'll answer the 10 questions given to me, and then I'll give 10 questions to a few other blogs I love.

Oh and one thing, I'm gonna see how short I can make each answer..

Ready??

1. Why did you start your blog?

Honestly, I think my husband is hilarious. If you read my first few posts, they are all funny stories about Jon.

My blog has transformed since then, but I still like to talk about all the weird stuff he says and does.

2. What is your favorite song and why?

Is it bad I have no idea? Here is what has been on blast in my car lately though:

3. Describe yourself in three words:

Katniss. Beyonce. Maddie.

4. Who is the person that can always make you smile?

I have a coworker whose nickname is Prim, that is honestly the best in every way.

Tessa Olsen, don't let that get to your head.

5. Describe your idea of a perfect day.

There would be unlimited ice cream and starbursts, but I wouldn't gain any weight, and I'd get to spend the whole day on the beach with Jon and all my best friends.

6. If you could travel anywhere, where would you go and why?

The Great Barrier Reef in Australia. The scuba diving there is supposed to be amazing, how could that not be at the top of the list?

^^^see??

7. Where do you find inspiration in life?

Um.. when I'm praying. Or jogging. Or both.

8. If you could spend a day with one person, who would it be and why?

My son as an adult, hands down.

9. What would you like to be remembered for?

I want people to know I cared about them. Like they could tell me things and I would be genuinely interested in what they were saying.

10. Have you ever experienced a turning point in your life? If so, what caused it, and what have you learned from it?

It was my freshman year of college, when I was stressing about everything, from boys to roommates, to my new classes and new classmates, and one day I realized:

"No one thinks about you as much as you think."

It might sound lame, but it was a turning point because it meant I could just chill and stop worrying. People care way more about themselves and what's going on in their own life, then about anything you say and do.

They aren't thinking about you, they are thinking about them.

This has taken a ton of stress off me ever since.

Weird? Probably.

Yay now to the good part!! I get to nominate peeps.. And if you don't wanna do it, I totally get it. But you should do it. For reals. I'll come up with good questions:)
