Thanks Peach {pinklove} for tagging me. She tagged me last week but I haven't been much in the blogging mood to tackle the task. Here goes...


5 Things on my to do list:

2 Book of Mormon papers by 5pm today {honestly, papers due in institute? jk, it's fun.}

Eat lunch sometime soon, raisins and peanuts anyone?

laundry, sorry Michele, I left it in the dryer!

my nails

I like that I have to think about a 5th thing for my list... only having four things seems nice.



5 {weird} Jobs I've had: {you know my usual answers, how about the unusual for a change?}

Dog/cat sitter

Taught English on the phone for ten minute increments starting at 5 in the am with senators, business men and students as my call-ees. I'd call, we'd chat about whatever they wanted, and I would correct them a little and give encouragement.

Got paid to tour Korea with a German Chimney Stack {yes. chain smoker}. Still can't believe I got paid to have formal tea with Buddhist monks, dance traditional mask dances, go to museums, and do crafts with old auhjama, all the while in some of the most beautiful places in Korea. Best weird job ever.

decorated cakes, swiffer/olay girl for a minute, detailed cars, worked for Ford, lab rat for Biolabs back in the day. Et al. I have had some crazy jobs.



5 Places I've lived:

Bountiful

BeunaVista, VA

St. George

Seoul

Centerville



5 Favorite Snacks:

cookies

almonds with apple slices

peanut butter

twizzlers

popcorn

ice cream

chocolate

candy, candy corn, candy canes and syrup

OH! That is way more than five! I'm hungry. I can't count when I'm hungry.



5 Things you would do if you were a billionaire:

get Ben that boat I owe him, give him a million or two, set up college accounts for the kids, take Kwona shopping and hopefully by giving him a million or two he'd retire and move closer. But I guess it doesn't matter, throw a jet in with the boat so we can all see each other on a whim. Then he can live where ever he wants I suppose.

fund all my parents future missions, buy them a motorcycle cuz my dad wants one oh SO bad and anything else their hearts desired. I'd be their personal genie.

tour the world with Kid Slade

eat out at a different restaurant for every meal for awhile then learn to cook when it got old

start an ultra cool design firm

donate the rest so I don't become some rich snob {my blog readers would most certainly get their share, no worries there my friends, you are not forgotten in my windfall}



5 Things you may not know about me:

I can't do cartwheels or swim more than a pathetic dog paddle type thing I pretend is an impressive butterfly

uuum, I am doing some serious searching for something to confess to you... I'm an open book, what don't you know about me? I blog, I have no secrets...

I have a hard time caring about the news or politics because I rather live in a world where everyone is honest and good and I don't like blatant reminders that I don't.

I want to be the very best designer I can be so I have a list of things I want to accomplish before I'm 30 {why 30? Round number...} Mind you, it's a super long list and I know 4 years with 2 of those devoted to school I don't exactly stand a chance to accomplish them in my time frame. I think I set up time frames for myself so I can be taught a lesson about His time vs. My time. {My money is not on me btw.} I know my priorities, but I would still love to design a restaurant, be in on a hotel job and put my name on some kind of major project other than residential that will be around for awhile. Shoot for the moon. So the thing you may not have known about me: I'm a dreamer.

TAG! You're it Heather, Cara, Mom, do I even dare say Ben? Do you even blog anymore dear brother?? Where are you?? :) The Year of the Golden Pig is a great post but I don't know how many more times I can read it!

All right Jenna. I will work on it, although I am not very interesting in these things. Loved reading yours and love your comment to Ben about the Golden pig!

I have a hard time believing you even eat those favorite foods!! So are you like grandma and can have one chocolate per day? I eat them and gain ten pounds!! NOT FAIR!
