A Few More Things I Ponder...

1. If you had the choice of going to the bathroom in a dirty bathroom but with complete privacy or a sparkling clean bathroom with people right outside the door with no water to run and cover up noise...which would you choose?

mouii answer-I'd choose the private, yet not so clean bathroom....you can always wash your hands and hover....You can't plug peoples noses and ears for them....List your response to this one...I'd really like to know!!!

2. Would you rather get up really early every day or go to bed really late?

mouii answer-I'd rather get up early...I feel like I accomplish more that way.

3. Would you rather be a billionaire who lived in his/her parents basement or make an $20,000 dollars a year, but have your own apartment.

mouii answer...I'd take my own apartment...I love you mom and dad...but I'm ready to be on my own!!

4. Would you rather elope but get a huge diamond out of the deal, or have a huge wedding with no engagement ring ever?

my answer-I don't know..I really like my engagement ring!!!

Quirky things....

What are some quirky things you do or love? Here's a list of my quirky habits or loves...

1. For some reason I love to Swiffer. Swiffers were the most ingenious cleaning product ever invented.

2. I like to exercise, but I hate stretching. I am about as flexible as a wooden spoon.

3. I still sleep with a teddy bear...my arms need something to hug while I'm sleeping!!!....Cocoa Marshmallow will have to do until I say I do in 3 1/2 months (cocoa is a teddy bear I've had since I was 8)

Tell me some of your quirky habits or ect.

People May Say...

1. People may say that I'm a scaredy cat because I can't kill a spider, but I can reply "would you rather kill a spider or drain an ostomy daily?" I think draining the ostomy takes more guts.

2. People may say that I've been in school forever. My reply is "I'm just really well rounded"

3. People may say that I'm a health nut. My reply is that I'd really love to be a health nut...but cookies just taste so darn good!

4. People may say that I'm crazy because I check the locks three times before I leave, but I can honestly say that nothing has ever been stolen from my house or my car!

5. People may say that I'm addicted to Diet Coke with Lime...and my reply to that is....yep, I definitely am.

6. People may say that I'm a "goodie" because I don't have sex before marriage...my reply is that "I can say I'm STD FREE!!!" (of course I would explain the other benefits of abstinence also)


Tell me something that people say about you....and what your reply is. It's kind of interesting to think about.

A List of Symptoms....If You Have 3 of These You Have the Diagnosis of "nursing student"

Please Check Yes or No to each question. If you check at least three symptoms it means You are a Nursing Student :)

1. Does this phrase frequent your vocabulary "I used to have friends, but after I started studying they've kind of disapeared"

2. You are deathly afraid that after you get married you will get pregnant. You've considered using 5 forms of birth control....all at ONCE.

3. Your family is planning your wedding for you...figuring out how you're going to get all of your nursing assignments done is the only type of planning you have time for.
