Book: The Kite Runner
This book is not for the squemish. There is one part that is potentially scarring, but is vital to the plot line. That is all I will tell you, but I am obsessed with this book and all others by the author whose name is Afghani so I don't know how to spell it. A Thousand Splendid Suns is also life changing and by the same guy. I wish I could write like him!!!
Song: From the Inside Out by Hillsong
Pull it up on youtube and you will probably like it too. It is in a key that I cannot sing in so I sound more wretched than normal (IS there a key I CAN sing to? I haven't discovered it yet) so I find myself straining my right shoulder muscle because I am pumping my "victory fist" so hard. Everytime I listen to the words, I think about how I could honestly live it out... it's such a challenge!:
"Your will above all else, my purpose remains
The art of losing myself in bringing you praise"
Stop reading this and listen to it right now!!!
Food: White Pizza
What rock have I been hiding under where I didn't know that white pizzas existed. Overall, I just think fancy pizzas are amazing. But don't get cactus as a topping- it's not as adventurous as you think.
TV Show: The Office
It will always be. But I did also really enjoy American Idol this past year (David Cook- I have a mild crush on you... just kidding Caleb!). And we are also really pumped about the new season of LOST coming up. But nothing gives me that runner's high like the theme song of The Office starting up with an all new episode.
Med Student: Caleb
But Allison and Kacie tie for 2nd place.
Experience: Biker Church
Biker Church was awesome and it really taught me a lot about myself and how I see people. But also close behind was Caleb and I taking the test for Who Wants to be a Millionaire, riding the ferry upclose to Niagara Falls, and then successfully skiing down a hill without falling or bugging Amanda Boo while in CO.
Toothbrush: The one I left at my parent's house after Christmas
I am having a tough adjustment period.
That's all the categories I can think of for now. I might add some more later.

Oh well.
I loved both of those books too! We read them at work earlier in the year, and all of us cried through those certain parts. So good. Has he written any others that you know of?
Love your favorite experiences! Glad I made the list...I was looking at those pics the other dday wishing we were getting ready to leave :(
Next year, fo sho.

Have you ever had the California Pizza Kitchen white pizza from the grocery store? If not, it is great...Ivy Kate even loves it! :)
I loved reading all your favorites Tricia. I made a list of mine :) I have read the Kite Runner as well and seen the movie. Very touching story. The movie doesn't quite do the book justice though.
