Hi!

  Hey Everybody!! My name is Marissa Burns (and yes my father is Mr. Burns, but not the one from the Simpsons..sorry!).
  Anyways, my humble abode resides in Coquitlam B.C., which is just outside of Vancouver. My family consists of 2 wonderful parents, 2 brothers (one older and one younger), 1 older sister, and 1 sister-in-law. I consider myself a sports-aholic...if I'm not playing sports, I'm  helping to coach them and currently I'm coaching both basketball and softball and enjoying it very much. I also consider myself a book nerd and I am quite proud of that fact :)
 I'm super stoked for Kaleo this year, I've heard amazing things from everyone that I have talked to and I'm really excited to get to know you guys!

Don't really know what else to say...got any questions for me?
-oh how about one interesting fact about you guys? just so I get get to know y'all :)

Hey! One interesting fact? I have what some people might call a 'porcelain nose'. I get a ridiculous amount of nosebleeds. haha thats the first thing that came to my mind.

Nicole said...

Staying on topic with facial features, my eyes are green.

crazy fact: today while driving with a friend, bird shot (from a shot gun) hit our windshield a cracked it...so I almost got shot. Also I love camping and being outdoors.

Tessa said...

Marissa what are some of your favourite books?
Random fact: I own a large hard cover thesaurus. I just love words.

Nicole said...

Oh yay!!! haha im sooo pumped now. I was worried i would be the shortest!

Marissa said...

haha I love every interesting fact about you guys! Bloody noses, almost getting shot, allergic to chocolate, 2x 5'2"...we're sounding like an amazing group of people!
Well Tessa, I absolutely love the Lord of the Rings & the Hobbit which I'm currently rereading right now--I did say I was a nerd :)

Oh and I didn't add a fact about me: Me and my siblings all have our birthdays in July. So basically we get to have Christmas in July!

Tessa said...

All the short ladies, Erin is around 5'2" as well, so you're in good company.
Marissa, we will geek out over Lord of the Rings. I'm planning on reading the Hobbit this summer!

haha i have never read or watched lord of the rings. you can leave me out... sorry for disapointment

michael gordon said...

Ive never read lord of the rings, but i have watched the extended editions like 5 or 6 times each

Tessa said...

I'm so jealous! I've never been able to get my hands on the extended editions!
And Stacey, if I can help it, you will have watched Lord of the Rings by the end of the year.

TannerK said...

Never read the lord of the rings but i have watched the extended editions as well. I have had nothing to do with the harry potter series.

Jon said...

Yeah read them all and Sillmarilion and have all the extended editions

Tessa said...

Jon, I think we can be friends :)

Jon said...

Andrew MacDonald said...

Hmm.... interesting fact... well when I was 23 I designed and built (mostly myself) a house.

Nicole said...

Andrew, did you ever live in that house?

Jon said...

or better yet did that house ever live in you?

Erin Karklins said...

Okay - so for the record I'm 5' 2 1/2'' (on a good day I'm 5' 3''). I'm sure Stacey and Nicole can attest to the importance of every inch (or half inch in my case). Interesting fact - Viktor (my husband) is 6' 7''. That makes him a foot and four inches taller than me!!
