Here you go...

Karen & Tamara started the trend! For the rules, check their blogs...

Shia LeBeouf : Transformers, Disturbia, Holes
He has the slightly nerdy factor, which is great!


Adam Brody: The OC
So hilarious! Totally nerdy & trendy at the same time!


Milo Ventimiglia: Heroes, Rocky Baloa
He has a facial flaw, which I love (part of his lip is paralyzed)


Ethan Embry: Can't Hardly Wait, Sweet Home Alabama, A Far Off Place
I have thought he was the greatest since I was a kid.
So, now its just for nostalgia's sake he's on the list


Mark Ruffalo: 13 Going on 30, View from the Top, Just like Heaven
He has the great raspy/quirky voice!

So, I tend to like the nerdy, quirky, funny guys as opposed to the ripped hunks!
(which is explained further in my choice of husband!)
Yes, Mark does know about these choices!

Okay, being inspired by Karen & her hotties list, I've decided to do a little round of
CELEBRITY AWARDS!
You pick the categories, you pick the winners!
This is just for fun!
And this is NOT just Hollywood Celebs!
This can be anyone!
They do not have to be living.
They could be famous in history...if they fit your category!
They CAN be fictional!
So starting tomorrow, we begin!!

P.S. YOU ARE ALL TAGGED!!!!


Resolutions



Well, with the festive christmas season upon us, I am faced again with the daunting
New Years Resolutions.
There are a few that I have stuck with, but many (like you all, I'm sure) that I haven't.
Usually, my resolutions look something like this:

1. Will lose weight
2. Will exercise 1 hr. per day
3. Will be confident in a swimsuit by Summer
4. Will lose weight
5. Will not eat any sugar, carbs, bad fats, salt, red meat, chocolate, white flour, etc...

These lists usually make it to about the afternoon of January 2nd and then I am left defeated, discouraged and I jump back into the old life with guilt, failure & an awareness of my inablity to change on my own.

This year, I want to change that. I want to make choices that will encourage me to make a difference. In me, in my life, as a human being & a member of my community. I've decided to approach it a little differently. Instead of making it the rule to have everything
begin January 1st, I'm making a sort-of bucket list (if you haven't seen the film, you should).
Its more like Goals for the year, instead of changes from the start.
So here are some ideas I have for my resolutions. But I would really like to have your opinions about these things. If you have thoughts about these or you have made these changes yourself, let me know how hard or easy it was to make the change.

1. Get rid of all chemical cleaners and replace them with natural or homemade cleaners
2. Toss the plastic bags & use only reusable grocery bags
3. Recycle
4. Use essential oils as much as possible for medicinal purposes (maybe not replace medicine enitrely, but cut down use considerably)
5. Learn about finances (budgeting, mortgages, etc...) so to not be completely clueless!!
6. Pursue home buying & adoption, furthering our understanding
& knowledge of all that it entails.
7. Make a career plan & pursue online college courses!! OY!


Those are my first 7...I thought I'd start smaller-ish. These things are important to me. Yes, there are no resolutions that deal with my weight, appearance or anything like that. Those may come as I try to tackle once again issues that I'm very aware of, but we will see.

If you know any good sources, websites, books, etc... that have helped you with any of these things, please let me know. I want to be as informed as possible! :)

p.s. though this is not an official tag...i would really love to hear yours!!!!
