50 "Fun Facts"

Hey Guys!

New year, new blog design, new posts... Why not a new introduction? 

I really would love to sit and type out full paragraphs on "What makes me, ME" and what really goes on inside the mind of Megan Miller but that is not what I will be doing tonight. Why? Two reasons... First, you probably have no interest in reading that and second, I have a date with a couple of fellas I like to call "Netflix" and "Couch." So sorry to those of you I disappoint but without any further explanation I present to you *drum roll please* fifty facts about me!

1. I am 18 years old (turning 19 this April)

2. I have officially started the mission paper's process! (For those of you that find this one confusing, I am planning on serving a mission for my church for a period of 18 months and have finally taken the first step in filling out the paper work)

3. I have been out of the country once. I took a spring break trip to Europe with one of my best friends Miss Karly for twelve days! We traveled England, France, and Italy.


4. It's my dream to someday visit every continent!

22. When I am alone I do weird things like dance around the kitchen, sing super loud, etc.

24. I have the sweetest, most attractive boyfriend on the entire planet. His name is Cameron and we met at E.F.Y. (church camp) over four years ago and have been dating for over three years. I've known him for a long time and he's been one of my best friends since.


25. I am majoring in Elementary Education.

26. I like listening to all kinds of music from artists such as Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Scotty McCreery, Pat Benatar, Imagine Dragons, Ron Pope,  and everything in between.

27. Actually I lied... There is a few genres of music I cant STAND. Rap, folk, and heavy metal... Sorry, I just cant do it. Haha

28. I don't wear glasses or contacts, and I never had braces. I'm one of the few but lucky I guess.

29. My favorite food is, oddly,  anything that has to do with potatoes. French fries, tater tots, baked potatoes, hash browns... I love it all.

30. I have one brother! His name is Garret and he is a goof-ball.


31. I also have three sisters. My older sister Jessica (She is a hairstylist and recently got married), Younger sister Mariah (who could totally beat me up if she wanted to), and my baby sister Savannah (she is probably the funniest and smartest 7 year old I know.)

32. When I grow up (whenever the heck that's gonna happen) I want to be a teacher for somewhere between 2nd- 4th Grade kids. It's my dream job!

45. I despise math.. It's not that I'm bad at it it's just that I really really dislike doing it. 

46. I don't have to see someone everyday to consider them a best friend. Heck, I don't even need to talk to them very often because once I open up to someone I keep them in my heart forever. (cheesy but true)

47. I am AWFUL at ice skating, just ask Cameron.

48. I wouldn't consider myself girly (not many people would) but I do enjoy getting dolled up occasionally.

49. I love little kids, which is partly why I wanna be a teacher.

50. I have a big, loud, family and I wouldn't trade them for anything. Be aware though, you say something bad about my family... We are gonna have some issues, haha.

I'm impressed if you actually read through all fifty of those facts. If you did, you are the best. If not, don't worry I don't hate you, I just love you a little less..... ;)

Goodnight!

I'm BAAAACK

I'm back in Minnesota and just in time for great weather *insert sarcasm here*
Seriously though... It's been freezing! Literally! I think the lowest it has been these past couple weeks is -27 degrees Fahrenheit without counting in windchill. WITH windchill it was -52 degrees Fahrenheit. HOLY CRAP. It's ridiculous! That is FIFTY-TWO degrees BELOW ZERO. It's hard to comprehend.

I wouldn't believe it myself if I hadn't lived through it. Definitely saving this story for my future grandchildren.

...Now that I am done with my rant I'll give you guys an update.

-Christmas was fantastic, but like every year it came and went to fast.
-Me and my mom have been crafting and making super fun cards in our spare time.
-I'm trying to decide on a mission date.
-Tomorrow I'm going job hunting, wish me luck? I'll keep ya posted on what happens.
-I've been taking TONS of pictures lately. (My boyfriends family, a family in our ward, my friends wedding reception, and I've got another family asking about it.) Its super fun! I'm not a professional by any means but I really do love doing it.

Sorry this post is short and super lame, but I just wanted to give a little update and let you know I'm home and loving it!

          Freezing with Family,
