in 10th grade...

6:38 AM

Nathan and me.


Baby cousin-Jake, me, & Taylor. 

1. Dating: I wasn't really dating in 10th grade. I had liked this boy my freshman year & it didn't work out so I just wasn't really interested. Honestly, I was enjoying getting attention from guys. It wasn't until Spring Break of 10th grade that I started to even want to date someone. That someone was Nathan. 
2. Eating: I LOVED caesar salad. Like obsessed with it. We would go on family vacations & no matter which restaurant we went to, I was ordering a caesar salad. I also could eat whatever I wanted & would gain no weight. It was actually kind of scary. (the second picture above is at Fuddruckers where I order a caesar salad that is HUGE.)
3. On the weekends: I'm sad to admit this, but I was in band. 10th grade was my last year that I was in band before I quit. So a lot of times on the weekend I was at a football game playing in the band or I was at a band competition. Otherwise, I was spending the night at my best friends Jessica or Taylor's house. 
4. Doing: I hung out with my friends a lot. But I also hung out with my family as well. I just loved being around people. I was super involved in our youth group so some afternoons I would go to youth events at the church or hang out with church friends.
5. Feeling: I don't remember really feeling a certain way in 10th grade. For certain I remember feeling like I couldn't talk to my parents about boys. I remember them poking fun of me when I was younger so I just started hiding it from them because I didn't want them to poke fun of me. 
6. Dancing: I. do. not. dance. Ok...really, I just cannot dance.
7. Driving: I started driving the day after I turned 15 & could get my drivers permit. I got my license the day of my 16th birthday in 10th grade & 6 days later my dad bought me a car. I was super excited about it even though it was in no way my dream car. I drove that car for 2 years though! Not to shabby.
8. Trying: What I remember trying the most in 10th grade was not trying to quit band the first semester, & then trying to quit band without my band director knowing it the second semester. It was horrible. He was mean & vindictive. He would make you feel/look like an idiot in front of everyone & I left so many band classes bawling. Finally after a week straight of me coming home sobbing, my mom said I could quit.
9. Dreaming: Mostly I remember dreaming about Nathan after I realized how much I liked him. We'll just leave it at that. If you haven't read about our story, you can here.
10. Forgetting: When I was younger (I would say before I was 20) I did not forget stuff. I just didn't. My family would make fun of how creepy my memory was. I still have a pretty good memory, but nothing like it was. 

What a fun post! It was interesting going through my pictures & trying to remember which ones were from 10th grade because I was friends with most of my friends through out high school. I got the idea for this post from Melissa Faye Blog. You should go read her post...just as fun! 

Comment & let me know what you were doing in 10th grade. :)
