Erica tagged me, and far be it from me to break a trend.
10 Years Ago I Was...
A high school freshman. Absolutely mortified about asking a girl to a dance for the first time. Going to the first meeting for the forensics team, at which point the coach said "Oh, and we might do this mock trial thing we've never done before," a path that would eventually lead me to law school. Convinced my calling in life was to be an anchor at WMAQ-TV Chicago. Watching the O.J. Simpson trial after school. Still riding the bus home from school. Going to geometry class with the donut-obsessed Mr. Ricci. A big dork.
5 Years Ago I Was...
Visiting the old folks at the senior center underneath the Oakland Plaza Lanes for J105 with B'Zang. Chillin' in J105 with the "J" girls: Jill, Jayna, Janelle--and the non-J girls: Becky and Tom Gl@ve. Also some other people, and I apologize for forgetting you. Attempting to re-build a Mizzou mock trial team from scratch, not having much success. Organizing MSA Activities Mart. Playing Gran Turismo with Rob B., Irfan, Angela, and Dan Y. Avoiding Dan Y. making out with Carly. Avoiding Collindsey. Taking "Principles of International Economics." Doing badly at hauling my butt to Schlundt for a 9 am Poli Sci class.
1 Year Ago I Was...
Subchecking. Bitter about losing to Terry D. in Arabian. Looking forward to flying home to see mom, my aunt and uncle, and Tra. Doing badly at hauling my butt to school for Con Law at 8 am. Learning to play Texas Hold'em. Enjoying life on Juniette Street. Happy.
Yesterday I Was...
At a hotel because my house had no working plumbing. Making progress in reading about John Adams. Working the Sudoku puzzle. At Target buying a new lamp.
