Thank you, Shannon! I've got my second award!
Woot! You can't see, but I'm totally doing a belly roll right now in celebration (I thought you'd appreciate knowing the actual dance move rather than the vague concept of me dancing, keeps things interesting, you know?)
Anyway what this means is I get to pass ze award onto 10 other scrappers who don't tell a lot of lies and I get to tell you 10 more things about myself without elaborating or embellishing at all, no way, no how, whatsoever...riiiight! No really, I'm an honest scrapper, remember? Watch, I won't embellish.
So let's get down to it.
10 More Things You Truly Madly Deeply Honestly Didn't Know About Frankie But Wished
You Had! Trust me-it's good!
1. I applied to Cornell for one reason and one reason only: they taught Sanskrit.
2. At Cornell...I never registered for a single Sanskrit class.
3. But I took almost every class related to Hinduism.
4. For one semester I was a psych major.
5. Now I'm a psych professor.
6. I never ever worked at my first job.
7. The day I showed up to begin, Bruegger's Bagels had shut down.
8. I think this means I still work there. BB, you owe me.
9. The first time I drove my dad's car, I spent twenty minutes convincing him I was an awesome driver.
10. Then I drove into a wall.
See! I told you I could tell you 10 totally true things without embellishing at all:-)
Now onto my worthy award recievers!
1. Sarah With A Chance (yeah I know Shannon nominated you too, but you're just SO scrappy!)
2. Booknapped
4. Lisa and Laura Write (Seriously, check out their vlog today. It's awesome!) You girls are too cute!
Aw, thanks! Hehe, I'm honored to be considered scrappy :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Frankie! I'm speechless.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I loved learning so many interesting facts about you. I'm laughing that you applied to Cornell because of the Sanskrit class... and then never took it. What a hoot.
Can't believe you drove into a wall, though. Ouch!
Heh. And I thought I was bad, going to USC film school not realizing I would have to actually make films. Well, at least we both picked good schools. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the honest scrap hon! Well deserved. (Hugs)Indigo
ReplyDeleteThanks Frankie! I always love being called scrappy because it implies someone who's small and strong. Score!
ReplyDeleteI love the story about you driving into a wall. Awesome.
Hehe Sara, Scrappy girls forever!
ReplyDeleteJoanne, glad you're enjoying and yeah...though in my defense I took Latin and Greek and I would have died if I went for Sanskrit too. And yeah the wall, it didn't hurt me. Hurt the car...
Shannon, Hahaha something else we have strangely in common!
Thanks, Indigo!!!
Hahah LiLa, I agree and thanks! My Dad doesn't like that story much but I'm glad you do!
Thank you, Frankie!! This scrapper stuff, it looks like I'm in excellent company! :)
ReplyDeleteBruegger's Bagels totally owes you. Why did they shut down (and not tell you)? Sounds a little fishy!
Ooh, and what were you before a Pscyh major?
lol! Your honest things about you are hilarious!
ReplyDeleteSarah, I know! What the eff is up with them hiring me and telling me to come to work and then being completely closed down. I don't know, maybe they didn't think I had what it took to cut bagels and they were too shy to tell me so they just left town. Or...not...
ReplyDeleteAnd I was a classics major and then a religious studies major before psych. That's why the no sanskrit. I was taking Latin and Ancient Greek--Latin was awesome. Greek tried to murder me and cut me up into little pieces. I was traumatized at that point.
And thanks Brizmus!
Those 10 things were hilarious. I'm glad I found your blog. Quite interesting!
