few more questions from Tori

i've still got more questions from my niece so i thought i'd knock some out today. here we go!

worst movie i ever saw? wow. hmm. rambo maybe? it was awful. i'm not one of those anti-violence people. but that movie was RIDICULOUS. body parts flying off...no story line...good grief.  i also think movies like "the day after tomorrow" are dumb.

what was my first car? did i pick it out? was it a hand-me-down?
my dad is norman dunlap. so YES it was a hand-me-down! ha. it was a white nissan sentra. (i think) and i drove that joker into the ground. i wore it out like i did my big wheel when i was a kid! that poor car rattled and shook when i finally got rid of it. good times in that car though, good times!

after it...wow. i had a trooper (which was almost flipped on numerous occasions), a honda accord (the old school kind w the automatic seat belt...i was cool), maybe an altima?, a malibu (sweet norm got me that and it was new), a maxima, a camry, another maxima, red 4-door jeep, a honda accord again and now a honda CRV. i think thats all....

the last thing that made me cry - was a post i read on fb to moms of adopted children. i wept!

first kiss. how embarrassing. i was 15. i was soooooooo nervous. i was dating a guy a couple years older than me. he's on fb so i won't give too many details. :)  but he had been trying ish to kiss me and finally said "are you gonna kiss me or what?" yep, romantic.

describe myself in 5 words: ugh, wow.
- committed/determined. i try to stick with things and be a woman of my word. i stick with things when its hard like running, UA, etc.
- low drama. i try not to get into gossip, or make things a big deal. i dont like drama.
- organized...borderline ocd :)  i like things in their place!
- open. lawd, i'll tell anybody anything they wanna know. almost to fault.
- self-conscious. i hate this about myself.

mini bucket list - 5 things.
hmmmmm....
- i would like to go to Israel
- see Gabe and his birth mom meet.
- have a condo on the beach
- finally defeat negative thinking/self talk
- learn to be a good swimmer. i doggie paddle.

favorite recipe? oh goodness. i dont cook well enough to have one...
- but i LOVE my dads grilled chicken and dressing.
- my moms calypso pie. (crushed oreos in melted butter, coffee ice cream, chocolate sauce (homemade), and cool whip...frozen thick layers of each.) she also makes delish pumpkin bars, broccoli casserole and sour cream/cream cheese mashed potatoes.
- claire's homemade carrot cake
- josh's homemade guacamole and salsa
- my grandmothers homemade biscuits
- claires sisters sweet potato souffle. mmmmm.
- jays moms cheese ball
i could go on.
