8's

I got tagged, so here it is...

8 tv shows I love to watch:
1. The Office - Dwight is my hero!
2. Extreme Makeover Home Edition - it gets cheesy sometimes, but I love hearing about families that are really working hard to change their communities (plus the houses are always gorgeous)
3. Scrubs - I think I'm most like Elliot, but I wish I was like Jordan...
4. What Not to Wear - Stacy and Clinton are brutal, but they have some really good advice
5. Mythbusters - let's face it, that is the coolest job ever
6. Law & Order - the old ones on TNT, not the newer ones
7. Home Improvement - reruns are on TBS every weekday morning from 10-12... i love it!
8. The Apprentice - what could be better than watching business people battle it out for a job with Donald Trump?

8 things that happened yesterday:
1. I had a 4 hour group meeting - lucky me
2. Mike's ultimate frisbee team won their game
3. Made scotch-a-roos for the first time in months, so good
4. Put out our Halloween decoration (yes, that is singular)
5. Killed a huge spider
6. Got the official offer package from KPMG - I'm not excited about reading through it all
7. Became even more frustrated with certain group members that don't ever follow through on things
8. Watched A Painted Veil while working on my presentation for Monday

8 favorite places to eat:
1. Buca di Beppo - love the family style italian food
2. Tucanos/Rodizio Grill - all you can eat meat is a wonderful thing
3. Ottavio's - love the accordion player and their chocolate canollis
4. Goodwood - some good greasy southern food
5. Cheesecake Factory - who wouldn't love a place with a book for a menu?
6. Texas Roadhouse - steak is always good
7. Cafe Rio - pretty much everything there is good, you can't go wrong
8. Pace's Dairy Ann - you can't beat their country-boys (hamburgers, not workers) and the rainbows are pretty amazing

8 things I am looking forward to:
1. Graduation
2. Passing the CPA exam
3. Owning a house
4. Having a couple of puppies
5. Having children (these aren't in order... )
6. Being done with the MBA core
7. Interning with KPMG
8. Having all of the family together next summer at Bear Lake

8 things on my wish list:
1. Touring Europe with Mike
2. Scientific discoveries that allow men to have children - it could happen, right?
3. A professional cook to provide Mike and I with healthy and delicious meals every night
4. Having family back in Provo (come on Lisa, you know you want to get a PhD...)
5. I agree with Lisa, 3 month pregnancies (that is, if #2 doesn't come true)
6. A shopping spree to Banana Republic
7. Wymount deciding to let its tenants have puppies
8. Never having to shave again

8 people that I tag: Darylynn, April, Rachel, Alissa, Jessica, Bethany, Katie, Melissa, and anyone else who wants to.

update

I got an offer from KPMG in Salt Lake for a summer internship!

Although this is great news, I am a little disappointed that the recruiting will be over now. Oh how I love the free food, massages, random promotional products, gift cards, etc. - but like all good things the recruiting must eventually come to an end. So sad.

happy birthday mike!

Mikes turned the big 2-5 this past Tuesday - here are some of the things we did that day to celebrate:

- we went to class

- we worked

- we treated ourselves to a quick hamburger
since we had mounds of homework

- we stayed up until 2 a.m. working on a
horrendous "trueblood" case

Unfortunately, I don't think it was the best birthday for Mike, but we have tried to make up for it by getting some celebration in this weekend. Mike had an intramural ultimate frisbee game Friday night, so I bundled up and braved the cold to watch him play. His team finally got all the kinks worked out and beat the other team - hooray! Satruday we had fun watching the BYU football game together and eating amazing Brick Oven pizza, and then Mike spent the rest of the night doing his favorite thing - organizing! He made it so that we can fit almost twice as much stuff in our dressers than we could before, isn't he amazing (and a little odd)?
