When I was 17:




1. When you were 17, tell us what kind of car you drove, where you worked, and what you were usually up to on the weekends?

I actually didn't drive until the summer after high school! my parents never wanted me driving anyone while I was in high school, but luckily my super cute boyfriend Iggy had a honda civic and drove me everywhere haha. Weekends I was either working at CVS or with Iggy and friends. Back then my friends were friends with Iggy too, I mean they still are, but now it's more women with women and men with men at parties haha.


2. Show us a picture of you when you were 17 {roughly}.

 Haha:

3. When you were 17, tell us what you wanted to be when you "grew up."
When I was 17 I was still clinging to the idea of being a mortician. I saw My Girl when I was very little and it seemed like a steady job you could do in your home whilest listening to music. REALLY lol. But I also started working in the pharmacy at CVS and I realized I could make as much money being a pharmacy technician as a mortician (the big bucks are apparently in owning your own funeral home, and it's hard to start a new one because people tend to go to the same funeral homes they've known) so I decided to go to pharmacy tech school and thought about being a pharmacist.

4. When you were 17, tell us the kind of boys that you dated. Did you have a type? Do you have a relationship you remember well? Tell us about it.

At 17 the only boy I really dated was Iggy. We broke up when I was 18 and I dated a couple of other guys but I wouldn't say I had a type.

5. When you were 17, tell us where you pictured your life 10 years from then. Did it turn out the way you expected it to?

In a word..NO haha. I honestly thought I'd follow in my sister's footsteps, she met her husband when she was 17 but got married at 27 in a big  wedding and had her first baby a couple of years later but I ended up decidedly less flashy than her so the big wedding and fancy things weren't a roadblock for me. I mean I ended up with two babies by 23, NO ONE saw that coming, I wasn't that maternal before Anna :p

  1. I love the thought process behind deciding to NOT be a mortician... I would have thought about it the same way!

    I NEVER THOUGHT for one SECOND that I'd have 3 kids! I was never going to get married nor have kids and be a career woman, or an actress. Now I'm a little bit country and a lot less sparkly. ;)
