All You (n)Ever Wanted to Know About Me...

...but were(n't) afraid to ask

Wasn't I a cute kid? What happened?!?

Mardi Gras 1999--Galveston Island--Me, Vicke, & Luke.

"I know a good time when I see one and when I'm in the mood I can even be one. I can lead the parade or I can stop it; sometimes I dance in the boat just to rock it." Thanks Heather and Jennifer (Kinley) for letting me borrow the lyrics to one of their songs. Keep up the good work girls!



"Not So Sweet Sixteen"--July 1996

Newer Pictures Coming Soon!

June 2001 -- I'm leaving for Florida and Mississippi for a few days but when I get back I'm going to completely rework this page and my other pages. I mean it this time.


Okay, this is one of those copy-this-entire-thing-and-change-all-the-answers-so-they-apply-to-you-then-send-it-to-everyone-you-know-including-the-person-who-sent-you-this things. If you don't like these kinds of things then skip it, but you'll be missing out on a lot of getting to know me.


-----45 Questions w/Answers from me -----
1.) Full Name: Krista Leigh Quiroz
2.) Home: San Antonio, TX
3.) If you could shove one thing into your head, what would it be? Do you really want to know? Well, too bad, 'cause it's **CLASSIFIED**
4.) If you could dye your hair one color, what would it be? Hmm, I'd probably go red again, but maybe not.
5.) If you could have a tattoo, what and where would it be? I have so many designs, if you really want to hear about them all then ask me later. All I'm saying for now is that on my left scapula I have the state of Texas with a blooming yellow rose coming out of it (see below); thanks to Wes at Touch of a Feather.

First (and only) Tattoo--August 1998
6.) If you could turn into any animal (real or imaginary) what would you be? Jungle Kitty Kitty Kitty!

8.) What's your favorite brand of gum? Juicy Fruit.
9.) Which is your favorite Mentos commercial? The one with the trapped VW Bug (I love Bugs!) and the late executive guy. You know, when the construction workers come and pick it up and move it into the street. Gotta love those sexy construction workers! LOL
10.) What color is your toothbrush? Purple.
11.) What color is your toothpaste? White.
12.) Is the glass half-empty or half-full? It's empty. It was half-empty though. See, I was drinking it and all of the sudden Luke comes along and downs the rest of it. That's what big brothers/friends are for.
13.) What's on your ceiling? Three deflated helium ballons I got when I came home from the hospital after my surgery.
14.) What's your favorite color to paint your toenails? I don't think I have a favorite. If I absolutely had to pick one it would be one of the many shades of blue I have in my polish collection. Or maybe a nice slutty red.
15.) Pick a song that describes yourself. I actually have a list of songs but for your sake I'll just put one. "I'm The Only One" by Ms. Melissa Etheridge.

19.) What's your sign? Hmm, maybe Wide Load? Or how about Dangerous Curves? You just gotta love that Texan hourglass figure, perfect for child-bearing. I think I'll just stick with Crabby Monkey.
Note: For those not so astrologically inclined that means I was born under the signs of the crab ["Traditional" zodiac (Cancer)] and monkey [Chinese zodiac (1980)].
21.) If you were a dog, what would your name be? Dumb B*tch!

24.) If you were to kill someone, which method would you choose? I'd like to think that I wouldn't kill someone. However, if I was going to...Well, read my one act play Dear Angela.

29.) When you notice a person of the opposite sex, you notice? A lot of things, including but not limited to: personality, eyes, smile, laugh, hair, and butt.

37.) Would you ever ask a random stranger of the opposite sex for his or her shirt? Maybe.
38.) If you could be one gardening tool, which one would you be? A watering-can. Definately not a hoe though!
39.) What kind of shoe would you be if you had the option to be a shoe? I wouldn't want to be a shoe. Who would? Think about it, you get to have smelly feet shoved in you and stomp you through mud, rain, dirt, etc. Yuck! In the spirit of fun I will answer though. I'd want to be either of a pair of my Docs or my Justin Ropers.
40.) If you could do anything to the person you hated the most what would you do? Go up and talk to them, try to work out our differences. I don't want to be a person full of hate and anger.

While digging through some old papers and things one sleepless night I ran across my quote sheet for the 1997-1998 Theodore Roosevelt High School Yearbook. I thought I'd put it up here to give you a look at another side of me.


Yearbook Quote Sheet


1. If I could, I would...
...make a difference in this world and ensure that my nieces grow up to be strong and healthy in a perfect world.
I finally have a newphew to worry about, too.
2. What's your motto/quote to live by?
Absolutely no regrets.
Still the same.
3. How has your life changes since you entered high school?
I have grown and matured. I'm no longer the naive freshman I once was; I can see so much more clearly without the rose-colored glasses.
I said that?!?.
4. Greatest Accomplishment (past/present/future):
Who knows what my original answer was? Yeah, I don't have a clue either.
I've accomplished many things that all mean something to me. I'd have to say now (three years after graduation) my greatest accomplishment would be completing over 80 hours of college with a 3.8 GPA.
5. Additional Comments/Quotes:
While my time here at Roosevelt has not been all fun and games, it has been a great experience in learning about love and life. I take with me knowledge, a smile, some tears, and enough memories to last a lifetime.
I said that, too?!?. Hmm, maybe I should consider journalism. Yeah, right!
