Amanda Jenkins - Top Ten

People's Choice Award

1. What kind of BARBIE do you think you’d be?
I like to have fun so lots of things make me laugh. I think my dad can make me laugh the hardest. He is a big, serious, quiet person but he plays hilarious practical jokes on my siblings and me. They can make us laugh so hard that we cry.

2. What’s the weirdest item you keep by your bed?
There are a couple of things that came to mind when I read this question. I think the most unusual thing about me is my abnormal fear of butterflies. I don't know where it comes from but I am scared to death of them. Weird but true!

3. What cartoon character do you relate to the most and why?
I'm a sporty girl so my activities help keep me in shape. I love being active. I cheer, tumble, run track, and in my spare time I love to go to the gym. I also try to eat right which is fairly easy because I am a very picky eater.

4. Would you time travel to the past or future?
Like I said before I am a athletic person so my favorite clothes in my closet would have to be my workout clothes. They are what I wear the most and what I am the most comfortable in.

5. How would your parents describe your personality?
The thing I probably need the most is appearance clothing. If I was given $500 I would purchase things appropriate for upcoming events.
