well...i was tagged or something a long time ago by my sister to write down 25 random facts about myself. (i think thats what it was) so i decided to let you guys get to know the real Kate Hawkley...
1) I got i a really bad car accident 2 summers ago. I was driving on the freeway after work heading for the spectrum, driving my grandparents oldsmobile minding my own business, when all of the sudden this blue sports car cuts me off. I slammed on my brakes, spun around 3 times, hit an old man behind me, hit a pole and flew off the side of the 5 freeway onto the EL Toro onramp…should have had some serious injuries, but was able to drive away from it without a scratch. MIRACLE
2) i dont like feet...but im getting better
3) Whenever I take roadtrips by myself I sing out loud the whole time so that I stay awake…one time I was driving home from Idaho (14 hours straight) and lost my voice by the time I made it home
4) All of my embarrassing moments have to do with falling, but this one is my favorite. One day in Idaho I was scapping off my car, which is an everyday event in Idaho and it was after class, I was parked in the front row right by the taylor. While I was scrapping I fell and a bunch of people were walking around at that time and I didn’t want them to see me, so for some reason I thought it would be a good idea to just slide under my car and wait for the crowd to pass. But, of course some good mormon boy saw me and came over and said, “um, excuse me, do you need help?” It was really embarrassing, but funny now that I think about it.
5) I loved high school!! Everything about it, sometimes I wish that I could replay certain days.
6) When I was in first grade I remember there was this thing called scholastic books, it was a magazine were you would order books. I always wanted to get stuff from it, by I never really did. But I remember there was this one boy who went to Europe for like a week and he bought a bunch of books and they were sitting in his cubby forever and so I just took them. And never told anyone. When he finally came back he was crying cause he wanted his books, but I never told him…I feel really bad about it now! Oops..
7) I hate people who you know know you but they pretend like they don’t and just walk by you without saying hello.
8) my mom told me that when I was little and we would go to stores I would just sit in the stroller and say hello to anyone and everyone.
9) When im not thinking about anything I count my steps and give myself goals when walking…example “take five steps to the tree…etc”
10) I once dyed my hair dark brown and immediately regretted the decision right when I did it. My hair will never be the same. Nobody recognized me, I even heard some girls talking about me in the library one day and I was sitting right next to them…luckily they were saying something nice
11) Anything outdoors makes me happy. I cant spend too much time inside
12) when im driving and a good song is on the radio and I have already reached my destination. Ill sit in my car and wait until its over.
13) I have only gotten 1 detention, 2 lunch detentions and 1 Saturday school. I got the Saturday school because me and two of my girlfriends ditched school and walked to the Laguna Hills mall and spent all day there. We thought we got away with it, but turns out we didn’t.
14) i think its so funny when i see people on bikes or just walking around and they are singing to themselves
15) sometimes when im driving i have this urge to run into things (i'll never do it!!)
16) I have had about 9 perms in my lifetime
17) i love to cuddle!!!
18) i love to run. i ran a marathon once. 26.4 miles...and plan on doing more. also Pehrson and i want to attempt a triathalon this summer.
19) when i was younger my mom said that she would come into my room and i would just be staring at myself in the mirror...for hours...
20) i once got frost bite on my toes in idaho. well, it was the "first stages" but still my toes looked like frozen chicken and felt like it too.
21) my dad said that if there was a major for socializing i would get a 5.0 because i love meeting new people
22) i spoke at my high school graduation with one of my best friends, tyler gardner
23) i got 100% attendance all 4 years of seminary just like my siblings, im NOT saying this to brag i just can't believe i got up that early every morning.
24) i was a cheerleader for byu-idaho my freshmen year, and thought it was one of the funniest things i've ever done. we cheered, in uniforms, for intermural games and some of the girls were SO hardcore about it.
25) i LOVE being in LOVE!!!! marriage is the best thing ever!!
man...that was really fun! i could probably do another 25, but i don't want to bore you guys. haha hope you enjoy. I'm not gonna tag anyone in particular, but if you want to do it, i think you should!

I got 100% in seminary too!!! And I loved it when you were a cheerleader!!!!
#9... I count steps too! But only when I have nothing to think about, and I'll make sure I pace myself to take the same amount of steps in each square. I thought I was the only one!
