A post, just to...

TEN things you wish you could say to TEN different people right now:
1. I love you.
2. I am your biggest fan.
3. You are so smart! I know you have a big brain in that head of yours.
4. Don't give up yet... you have too many people praying for you.
5. What was that you said?
6. You will survive!
7. Does the A in Horticulture mean you're reconsidering a job as a psychologist? Should I call you Farmer Kei?
8. No, I am not going to curve your grade just because you're funny.
9. Do you EVER listen?
10. I missed you too! Now let's have a beer!

NINE things about yourself:
1. I love teaching. Although I was supposed to be trained in research, I really don't like doing it... however, I think I can produce some great ideas for research.
2. I can swear like a truck driver and I have to really watch myself sometimes.
3. I talk WAY too much... sometimes, I don't mean to not listen to you.
4. I have finally adapted to living by myself... and I really enjoy it most days.
5. I love cooking for people, but not for myself. :) I find that I dirty WAY too many dishes for it to be worth it.
6. I miss reading books for fun. I use travel as a good excuse to invest in a book that will help me survive a three hour plane ride.
7. I wish I had braces. I am very self-conscious about the gap in my teeth.
8. I fell in love at the age of 27. I never thought it would take so long, but boy what a difference it makes!

2. Have dimples. :)
3. Have faith in God or some higher power.
