65. I was Alice the youngest bride in 'Seven Brides for Seven Brothers' in high school. I begged the director to take the kiss out of the last scene because I didn't want my first kiss to be with some slimey drama geek ( I don'mean geek in the nerd kind of way. You all know the cutest drama guy who all the girls like, but he knows it and so it makes him kind of slimey and he isn't even that cute. That guy.) I guess he was amused because he took it out.

71. My friend Becky and I swam across a lake and back one night because we felt like we could swim forever. We were lucky we didn't drowned.

72. I was the second runner-up for Harvest Ball queen.
