"borrowed" from writtenoutloud

This is the problem with LJ, we all think we are so close, and we know nothing about each other. I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about.

Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you.

what means the most to you in life?

[absurdsarahkate]

Happiness. I want to live a life that I was happy with, I don't want to be bitter and full of regret when I'm old. I guess I just need to figure out how to achieve that happiness since my life up to this point hasn't exactly been filled with joy.

I hope that doesn't sound shallow & selfish that what's most important to me is being happy but I really just feel like that's what life is all about.

[writtenoutloud]

not selfish at all!!! you have to be 100% to give to others and be your best self. sarah time is muy importante!!!

What do you hope to be doing ten years from now?

[absurdsarahkate]

Another tough question to answer! Umm.. well, I would like to be married and have kids (two or three maybe?). I would like to have earned at least two college degrees by then and have started a small business of some sort. My main goal though is just to be HAPPY like I said in the answer to Kristen's question. I don't feel content with my life as it is now. It would be nice to, in 10 years, be somewhere/ be someone I am completely 100% happy to be.

what are some of your favorite pasttimes?

[absurdsarahkate]

-watching movies

-making artsy-crafty things but lately I have been totally uninspired to make or do anything like this. :(

-taking my doggy for walks

-getting in the car and driving anywhere just for fun

-swimming (but I never seem to get a chance to)

-shopping even though I never have any money to buy anything I really want I still like to browse. Finding funky cute objects makes me happy. Yes, I'm a materialistic shopping addict :p

-going to concerts. Even if I don't like a particular band it's still fun to go to see a concert, especially in small concert halls & bars where you can get close to the stage. Though I'm always afraid of getting swooped up into a big mosh pit.

-I also love reading both fiction and non- but I definitely don't read often enough. I need to get in the habit of doing it regularly.

That's about the extent of it. My life is kind of boring.

how did you and cory meet?

how can i help inspire you???? (we should pass a journal back and forth!!!)

[absurdsarahkate]

Cory & I met when I was about 11 or 12 years old. His mom started working at the same place my mom did and they became friends. They started hanging out and then finally my sister and I were introduced to Cory & his sisters. From then on we would all do stuff together and I was friends with him & his sister Cheryl and my little sister was friends with his sister. They went to a different school than we did so I probably would have never met him if it weren't for our moms. A year or two after we met Cory asked me out on a date...awww.. how sweet. We went to see "Last Action Hero" at the local movie theater (ha!) - then nothing happened for about a year after that until we all went camping on summer and he asked me out while we were swimming in the lake. Ha! So corny but cute. So, yeah, we have been together ever since - not counting a 2 or 3 month break up in 2002 but that's another long story

[writtenoutloud]

no no no, you rock and let's do it!

[laurasia]

what do you look like?

[absurdsarahkate]

I would just post a photo of myself to simplify this but I don't seem to have any on my computer here at work so I will just do my best to describe myself..

I'm short (5'2.5") & "fluffy" (my nice way of saying that I need to lose at least 30 or 40 pounds). Blonde curly hair that just about reaches my elbows when I'm sitting down. A very round face with pasty white & pink skin, my chin is nearly non-existant. Blue eyes, pointy nose, barely-there upper lip and and average sized lower lip, and bad teeth that seriously need fixing.

Gee ... aren't I a beauty? Ha.

Ok, I will post some pics of myself sometime soon. I don't have very many recent pics of myself at home. Maybe my mom has some at her house. I'll have to check with her.

[writtenoutloud]

post!!!

[absurdsarahkate]

Ha! Ok ok!

I will see what I can find this weekend. I will probably be going to my mom's tomorrow so I will scrounge through her pics.
