Tag from Sarah

Actually, a few people have tagged this one for me, but I didn't think it was a very interesting tag. No offense. So I'll try to spice it up a bit. >:)

5 things on my to-do list today:
Go to church (check)
Finish Twilight (check)
Take a nap (check)
I seriously didn't do more than 3 things today, because #2 tended to keep me distracted from doing anything else (note how there is not even any eating on the list.... now that's a good book!)

I enjoy:
My husband's cuteness.... I mean, ahem... rugged handsomeness
My cat
Reading
Writing
Teaching middle school (who knew?)
Singing
Dancing
Playing the piano
Flagging

What would I do if I were suddenly a billionaire?
Buy a lot of nice things for my family and friends, help pay off any of their debts. Then for myself and my Kevin, I would buy a small house on a large piece of property. After going to Wyoming yesterday, I think I might buy a house up in Star Valley. It is SO quiet, peaceful, tranquil, natural, and earthy.
Then I'd pay for doctors, dentists, etc, to go visit poor parts of the world for free. Then I'd try to continue life as I usually do. I'd continue working towards becoming a teacher, and I'd encourage Kevin to work towards becoming a lawyer. Maybe I'd work 3 days out of the week so I could have some time to stay at home and play ball master on the computer.... I mean read and write and work on my sewing projects. :)
And write I would! I can totally see myself becoming an eccentric recluse and dedicating unnatural amounts of time towards my "writing."

3 of my bad habits:
Sleeping in so late I only have 15 minutes to shower, dress, eat, pack a lunch, and run out the door
Spending too much time doing sedentary things (reading, sewing, surfing the 'net) and not enough time up and about. (Translation: getting fat)
Heaping junk underneath my coffee table

5 places I have lived: (The most recent 5)
Our way cute cottage in Provo, UT
A 5-star hotel in Beijing, China (Hotel Kunlun)
A tiny, ghetto studio apartment in Provo
At home in Los Alamos
On Condo Row with 2 other engaged girls
At the foreign students' dorm (Xi Yuan, or "Western Paradise"... far from accurate) at Nanjing University in China

5 jobs I have had:
ESL teaching assistant at Orem Junior High
Ballet class accompanist
Phone agent at NuSkin Enterprises
Secretary/translator for the General Manager at Hotel Kunlun
Daycamp director

5 things you might not know about me:
I have a headache right now
I just went to the bathroom
I just finished Twilight, and now I'm faced with the task of picking out a sort of "reader's digest version" of the book for one of my classes. For every 100 pages, they will only read about 25.
I hope to read Twilight to one of my other classes... the ones that squealed as I read out of Chicken Soup for the Soul

Thanks for spicing it up, that was fun. Amazing how addicting Twilight was isn't it? I didn't care for the other two as much, but Twilight definitely stood alone!
