Let's see, in Kindergarten I was in the green reading group and it didn't take long to figure out that the green reading group was the highest reading group in the class.
In first grade I drew a little girl bunny and a little boy bunny with cute bunny clothes on. Mrs. Howell liked them so much that she made huge versions of them and I got to choose a couple of friends to help me color them. Then they hung them up in the library.
In 3 or 4 grade (I'm not sure which because I was in the same double classroom for both 3rd and 4th grade), I got to be Clara in our class's version of the nutcracker.
When I was ten or so, my family went on a trip to San Diego and one of the attractions we visited was the San Diego zoo. Somehow I ended up watching a show about snakes. The lady doing the show asked for a volunteer to hold the boa constrictor and I was chosen. I help the snake while she talked about it. I remember it squeezing my arm tighter and tighter. When she finally stopped talking and tried to unwrap the snake, it was VERY hard to do. I guess the snake was trying to strangle my arm to death. It hurt for hours. I also remember having a hard time finding my family after the snake show.
In 8th grade, I got to be Alma Pumpernickle, the heroine of the melodrama that our drama class produced.
At youth conference in Utah, we went to a workshop on make up and grooming which I believe was done by Barbara Barrington Jones. Anyway, she singled me out to show the girls how make up should be done.
That's it. Those are my claims to fame.
Cool! You are very cool. I wish I had known sooner how cool you really are. I mean, I knew you were cool, but I didn't know you were this cool. I feel honored to be associated with you. I guess that's my claim to fame now :).
