Top 5

So Emo posted her top 5 and requested that I post my top 5 because I am one of Jack's closest friends. And in order to do so, I had to create a blog. So here's my attempt at blogging. Please don't judge...I'm new to this. So without further ado, here's my top 5:

1. 5 things under $5 that I couldn’t live without
  • Cheese
  • Milk
  • Chocolate (why are all of these food?)
  • Hair ties
  • Chapstick

    2. 5 favorite movies
  • Usual Suspects
  • Volver
  • Pan’s Labyrinth
  • Finding Nemo
  • High Fidelity

    3. 5 baby names I love
  • Aiden
  • Kira
  • Cole
  • Isabella
  • Julianna

    4. 5 songs I could listen to over and over again
  • Sideways (Citizen Cope)
  • Seek Up (Dave Matthews)
  • Slow Dancing in a Burning Room (John Mayer)
  • One Flight Down (Norah Jones)
  • Color Esperanza (Diego Torres)

    5. 5 people who have influenced me in a positive way
  • My dad – if he had never pushed for me to watch sports or be independent, I would not be the person I am today.
  • My mom – someday I’ll learn how to be patient like her.
  • Wayne – if it were not for Wayne or our Europe trip, I’d need treatment for OCD.
  • Emo – I never would have had so much free wine (or wine in general) without her.
  • My Oregon grandma – I want to be like her when I grow up.

    6. 5 things that are always in my purse
    Boring but true...
  • Band-Aids
  • Chapstick
  • Hair clips

  • Meeting the Blazers – dreams can come true!!
  • Traveling to Europe with Wayne for 3 weeks.
  • Deciding to move across the country for college.
  • 2000 Western Conference Finals – without those, would I hate the Lakers nearly as much? I say not quite.

    8. 5 obsessions I have now
  • Cleaning and organizing
  • Checking my email
  • NBA playoffs
