It's been awhile

I know...I know...you guys are mad at me.  I've heard the complaints and I'm here to make life better for you.  I am going to be more faithful at my blogging.  I know it's a HUGE part of your life, so I will keep you satisfied.  

3 Interesting things in my life

1.  I'm going to Australia 6 weeks from today and I'm super de duper excited!

2.  Jill and I are going to see Britney Spears in April

3.  30 days of Nights (with Josh Hartnett) is the dumbest movie ever.  If you ever watch it, I warned you.

Ok, check you guys lata!

Things going on

Ok, so I just got a call from my big sister and she let me know she has discovered my blog.  So I was motivated to blog tonight.  Things going on in my life...

1.  Adding Hip-hop dance lessons on top of tap

2.  Trying to do some "spring" cleaning of my super un-organized house

3.  I'm thinking about having a baby

Ok, thanks for reading my blog.  Have a super night.

P.S.  I'm just kidding about number 3.  

Mantana = Tiny Dancers

So...I apologize as I promised my loyal readers I would be blogging while I was in Mantana this last weekend and we all know that did not happen.  There are many reasons why I was not able to.  Anyways...recap of the weekend...12 hour car ride, dope hotel, fun with really good and amazing friends, a great wedding and many memories that will last forever.

Tiny Dancer - a short woman who came into our life at exactly the right moment.

Ody, Who are you wearing?  Who are you with?  Are you still with Don?

I want to jump off that stage...cackle, cackle

Joey Gladstone - a bartender who looks just like Joey Gladstone from Full House

The Wagon Wheel - a bar we should not have gone into as everyone we met later told us people got stabbed there.

Ok, I'm going home.  A group of ladies next to me at Panera are giving me a headache

I gotta get better at this blogging thing…I need to be more faithful in my blogging. Today was yet another wedding. Tammy is now married and she was beautiful.

Here’s your Bekah Kuh recap from Friday. Friday morning I got a MacBook and it is so cute! Friday afternoon I spent at my parent’s campsite where they have been spending the weekend. I then journeyed back to Stillwater for Lumberjack days with some old friends. We ate Mexican food, listened to a few bands and saw old friends. Lots of fun. Today was Tammy’s wedding and the reception was great. Good friends, good music and great adult beverages!

Tomorrow is my company picnic at Valley Fair. I’m taking my little sister and it will be lots of fun! I’m waiting for my new I-Touch to charge so I can play with it! I’m heading up to Northern Minnesota at the end of this week for a family reunion where I will be entering a talent competition with my tap dancing routine.

Ok, I know this was boring, but I didn’t want you to forget about me.

Maybe the Best Weekend Ever???

This weekend…there are so many things to tell you.

Friday – After a long day at work, I met up with some friends for happy hour. Happy hour then turned into watching tornadic activity and then going to the horse races. After loosing a few bucks we headed over to do Karaoke but then found out there was no Karaoke, but a pretty sweet band. So we busted a move and had a good time. After this, a fight broke out and I sat quietly and watched. I went to bed about 4 AM.

Saturday- One of the best days of my life! We went to the Basilica Block Party and Missy Higgins was going to be performing!!! We had been through the gates for maybe 5 minutes when a girl walked up to me and said “Missy Higgins in standing over by that light pole.” I turned around and a tunnel appeared and there was Missy Higgins standing at the end, just hanging out. I went with my new friend Sarah and she held my hand to keep me calm, cool and collected.

The moment came and I got to meet Missy Higgins! She was super cool and I told her about my trip I’m planning to see my friends in Australia and that I’ve loved her music for a long time, and how cool I thought she was. (Keep in mind I was shaking the whole time) She then told me she liked how my name was spelt and that she really enjoyed meeting me! So I’m still on my Missy Higgins high! Her concert later was great and I introduced some of my friends to Missy Higgins and now they are all fans!

Sunday – I woke up this morning with a horribly sore throat and stated home from church. This is the first Sunday I have missed in a very long time. So I sat around and slept and am writing this blog.

Ok, I’m heading to make some soup. Word.

A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart. ~Author Unknown

I decided to try something new. I’m going to blog about a friend of mine in each post. Now before you say boring, let me tell you…I have some fun, interesting and fabulous friends.

I will begin by blogging about a good friend of mine who is a faithful reader of my blog. I envy her. She is so great! She has done some amazing things in her 24 years of life. She has lived in Alaska, Fiji and Mexico City.

She has skydived, taken a group of Alaskan students to NYC, and learned to speak a few different languages. She loves to learn and spends her time helping others. She is truly a great person and I am honored to be her friend.

Ok, that was a sappy one. But she’s really cool. Tomorrow I’ll be blogging about a sketchy friend…don’t worry…the drama is on its way.

Blowing bubbles are fun,

To Tap or Not to Tap

So I decided to do something I've never done before. This evening I attended my 3rd tap dance lesson of my life. It's something I always thought would be fun to do and looked like fun. Well 3 weeks into it, I have 3 things to say.

1. My toes hurt

2. Everyone in my class has white hair except for the guy who looks about my age, but does not like girls.

3. It is actually REALLY hard So if you are reading this blog, I expect to see you at my recital in September.

Tapping away,

Bekah

Things that make me happy

So I had to blog again before the end of April. I decided to tell you about the things that make me happy.

Taking a half day at work so I can go to happy hour with friendsThe Talking Photo Booth on Jay Leno

Reading about stupid criminals (so I know this picture is not of a "stupid criminal", but you know what I'm talking about...those people who rob a house and fall down and call 911)

Playing Miniature golf

Road Trips

Watching "how i met your mother"

Eating Chipotle

Riding my Bike

It's been awhile!

So it's been a really long time since I blogged, but there have been a few issues.

1. I pinched a nerve in my neck and could not really move
2. I didn't really have anything exciting to blog about
3. I've been spending all my free time watching "How I Met Your Mother" (such a good show)

So there is still not much to blog about, but I wanted to make sure you didn't think I fell off the face of the earth.

Good Night!

Olive Oil

So I love olive oil, but I hate olives? Is that weird?

Did you know that in ancient Greece, children of wealthy families were dipped in olive oil at birth to keep them hairless throughout their lives?

Did you also know that 98% of the world’s olive oil comes from the Mediterranean region?

You may be asking why I am giving you this useless information about olive oil and my answer is this...there is no reason. I just didn't have anything interesting to blog about today!

Maybe a sad subject, but it's Inevitable

Death seems to be a subject in my life recently. I think that last statement was an oxymoron...maybe? Death and life in the same sentence…maybe I don’t really know what an oxymoron is.

With these deaths, come many questions from many different people. Why would God allow death? Why do bad things happen to good people? Why can someone in their prime of life be alive and well one day and the next day they are gone?

Maybe a new favorite quote of mine will help in this subject. “One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching.”

I will now pull out my 2nd Major in Bible and Theology from Crown College.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
-Romans 8:28

Even though it can be hard to see, God has a reason for everything! That is something important to keep in mind.

Ok, Benny the Bed is calling my name..

3 interesting facts about me

• I once sat in Conan O’Brien’s chair on the set of his late night TV show (Conan was not there, but it was still cool)
  


• I was on the news in London in front on Buckingham Palace. Not for any reason, except I wanted to be on TV in another country
  


• I don’t like Mayonnaise, mustard or ranch dressing.

Stupid website of the day

This is REDONKULOUS! Go to http://www.celebritydogwatcher.com/ This is kind of like TMZ, but for the dogs of celebrities. How much free time do people have?

Talking Stain

Have you seen the Talking Stain commercial? It’s for Tide-to-Go and it makes me laugh every time I see it. I think you will be excited to know that I have created my own talking Stain. Ok, check me out in my very first commercial!






I love it!

Woman of the Year

So I was reading my Glamour magazine and they had decided that Jennifer Garner was this year’s “Woman of the Year.” It got me thinking….what would I, Bekah, have to do to get this award?


(just a glimpse into the future)

Here’s what I think I need to do…

· Start worrying about global warming and become friends with Al Gore
· Adopt a child from a third world country
· Stop eating so I can be really thin
· Give millions of dollars to charity
· Work with congress on some bill that has to do with global warming
· Date/marry a really cute celebrity
· Drive a hybrid vehicle
· Make Oprah be my best friend so she can nominate me for this award

So I’ve decided I’m probably not going to be Glamour magazine’s “Woman of the Year” anytime soon.

I want to take a train trip. I’ve never done it before, and I think it would be fun. Even if I just went to like Chicago, I think it could be a good time. Anyone want to accompany me? If Tony P is reading this, I’m automatically disqualifying you.

Weekend recap

So it was a crazy weekend. Here are some of the highlights…

Thursday night – My friend Michael came over and brought his Mom’s dog to my house. The dog is stinkin cute and I decided to need one. Seeing as how a dog is a little different then a purse, I’ve decided to think about this purchase instead of making an impulse buy.

Friday I spent the day in Rochester with my Grandma and other members of my extended family. I got home late Friday night, worked on my final project for school and went to bed about 3:30. At 4AM I heard a loud noise and had a horrible thought cross my mind…another mouse in my house.

I set a trap Saturday morning and left to go spend the night with my family for the Easter Holiday. Sunday night I came home and guess what? I caught another mouse! I’m completely grossed out and will have a hard time sleeping tonight, but at least another mouse is dead in the world.

Quote of the Day

I’m not a minor, I’m David.”
-My little brothers response to me when I told him I would not buy him alcohol cause he’s a minor.

Top 10 things that bother me

First off, I need to give a shout out to my loyal readers...and apologize for not staying on top of my blogging. There are many things that bother me, so I decided to make a list for you. Without further ado...

The Top 10 Things that Bother Me

1. Bumper Stickers

2. People who drive slow in the left lane

3. Political correctness

4. When people talk about people you don’t know but only refer to them as "Tom or Jenny."

5. Teenage girls from age 12-16

6. Women who wear 2 piece bathing suits who clearly should not be (especially if they are over the age of 40)

7. The Honda Element (ugliest car ever)

8. Cats (the animal)

9. Wasting two hours of my life on a stupid movie (i.e. License to Wed)

10. People that believe it when they get an e-mail from a random King in Africa who promises them millions of dollars, but they first need $2,000 to get things rolling.

Ok...bye

Short but some good gossip

David Hernandez was voted off American Idol tonight. So sad…

Sabrina the Teenage Witch, AKA Melissa Joan Hart, had a baby boy this morning. I wonder if

You gotta check out http://www.blackoutball.com/ This is Britney Spears newest music video for her song “Break the Ice.” The video is animated and I’m loving it!

Next blog will be 10 Things that drive me crazy…stay tuned!

Quote of the Day

"I assume you all have guns and crack!"

My 3 fears in life

So if you’ve ever looked at my profile on MySpace you will notice I talk about my biggest fears. I have 3 big fears in life. I’m going to tell you what those fears are and why I am fearful of them. The reason why I am doing this is because I think there may be a mouse in my house. This leads me to my first fear.

1. Mice – To me, mice are the worst. Everything about a mouse is horrible. They are ishy, squeaky and annoying. I would rather not shoe shop for one month then have a mouse in my house.

2. Flying – I think the whole concept of not being in control is why I hate this task so much. I would rather drive 30 hours in a car then fly 4 hours. I know, I’m weird, but I don’t like it!

3. Pudding – Ok, this one is extremely weird, but true. I like yogurt and Jell-O, but something about pudding creeps me out. I think this is because I am a big texture person.

So now you know what creeps me out. So I wanna know…what is your biggest fear?

The weekend is almost over…Boo
