I'm on a Game Show!!

Drum roll everyone.... They finally aired my show that was taped 4 months ago in October! It's not often that producers of a game show call you asking to be on tv. And I didn't even have to leave the house! I can't believe how much energy I had - I couldn't move very well the next several days - but it was totally worth it! It's amazing what a ton of adrenaline pumping through your body can do!!
 
 


They eliminate the player with the lowest cash at the end of each round of questions.
 I can't believe how far I got! We you get sent home, you lose all of your winnings!



I had absolutely no clue who Jonah Hill or Seth Rogan are -
I just knew for sure that no one thinks Al Roker is sexy!

 
 
Okay, I beat out all the other contestants and won $9,800!! Now, they let me do one final round where I can pick how much of my winnings to gamble. If I win, they'll multiply it by 5Xs!! But if I lose, I lose all I risk. At this point, I've gotten, amazingly, every question right except for the $200 one at the beginning. So scary to have to choose what to do in two minutes!!
 
 


WHO HOO!!! SO MUCH FUN!! It was so hard to not say anything for 4 months! If I did, I would risk losing all of my prize money - Dan and I had to sign disclosures to not say anything - but now I can say how totally awesome it all was!!! After taxes (the government takes 40%) and tithing it comes down to about $25,000 - but still - WHO HOO!!! You all know me - I'm gonna put it all to student loans (kind of boring) but definitely practical! My body crashed afterwards and I couldn't move very much for the next several days - but TOTALLY WORTH IT!!
