Who is your Hero? My hero is Jesus, I want to always strive to be a better person.
How do you hope old friends remember you?
As a person who was genuine and exactly what I appeared to be. Describe your favorite way to relax? I burn candles and listen to soft music while reading a good book or looking through my celebrity notebooks of articles and pictures.
Life doesn't always turn out the way you expect. What's been your biggest surprise? Just because a guy acts like he likes everything you do while you are dating him,and does all those things with you,that you like to do, doesn't mean that down the road you will have anything in common at all, because they aren't being themselves around you.
I always wanted to be a medical person when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a great idea. As it turns out, they were close.
Which teacher would you love to see again? none of them. the ones I was close to, I have seen again.
The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Timmy Payne, because even though I was a sophomore and he was a senior, he was always so nice to me..
To be truly happy, you would be where, doing what, with whom? For me to be truly happy now, I would be in another place, doing what I truly love, with someone who truly loves me and shares a lot in common with me.
If I could improve my home, I'd remodel everything and add on a extra room. My dream home would be in New York, Kentucky or California.
Parents? share what you've learned from your kids.
That if you really try, you w...Expand for more
ill never run out of energy to get the job done and that having them in your life will make your life what it becomes.
What happened to your first crush? He got married young, because he got the girl pregnant and is now divorced, with one or two kids, I don't know where he is now, (he was a terrible kisser, plus he kissed my sister too)
If I won $100 million, I'd give some of it to my mother and sister, then spend the rest on my kids, my church's and charities I support and my needs.
You get one do-over. What do you do differently? I would be brave enough to ask my (then boyfriend, who went to another school) to the homecoming dance, (he was upset I never asked him to go) when he later found out about it.
I never lived in a dorm. Never joined the greek system, but was president of my drama club in college and was part of a group from chorus called "The Raisins" it was four guys and four girls.
What about you would surprise everyone at your high school reunion? That my looks haven't changed that much, but my personality has changed somewhat(I no longer tolerate getting dumped on constantly)I use to turn the other cheek, so to speak, but not now!
My current age is (I'm not saying). When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be married for 25 years and happy. I was so completely wrong, no one seems to stay together anymore
Reveal your career aspirations.
I want to be a published Author and be involved in the theater.
Share a childhood memory you'll never forget. when my biological mother was killed by my biological father.
My best friend would tell you I'm always looking at the good in life, and not trying to think about the bad stuff in life, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as too up beat and always too happy.
I dress somewhat like I did twenty years ago but I also stay current on my styles too.
I share my home with four other people, which I find sometimes too stifling, I never have time alone.
I have trophies I got in high school but they are packed away, they are not on my mantle, (that was then not now). my best award was for being the "most supportive mom" for my son when he was in elementary school.
In 10 years, I hope to be happier. I'm going to get there by putting myself first for once, I have always put everyone else first and have lost myself along the way
My oldest friend would be Jolene Parker and she was my neighbor growing up. we got along because we lived in the country and she was the closest person to me, but I don't know how much she really liked me.
My first job was at a dog show,(it was also my weirdest job) where I got paid I don't remember how much. to scoop dog poop out of the rings during the show. What I remember most about it is, it was not as bad as I had expected it to be, but I wouldn't want to do it now..
What's the wildest thing you ever did in school? A group of us went to a water park in Radcliff and as I went down the water slide the top of my bikini slide off my shoulders and as I stood up out of the water the guys applauded as I went beet red in the face and quickly pulled it back up, OMG, I won't name the guys that were there, you know who you are. Who is you favorite man and woman celebrity? That would be Gerard Butler (300) and Angelina Jolie (Tomb Raider)
