J, over at Babies and Battlefields tagged me for this meme!
Rules: 1. Respond. 2. Tag 4 other people.
1. What is your current obsession? Well my obsessions seem to change regularly but for now… taking pictures, blogging, Netflix-ing.
2. What is your weirdest obsession? Even numbers. I hate odd numbers and when I do things, I try to do them in even numbers.
3. Recall a fond childhood memory? When I was about 6 my family moved, from England to Texas. I remember the night before we left, it was late and I was in my room, thinking of how I was going to be like Christopher Columbus. I crept out of bed and saw my dad standing in front of the house, talking to a friend. He looked up at me and for a second I thought he was going to be mad that I was up past my bedtime. But he just smiled at me and winked and I felt okay again… and crawled back into bed.
4. What’s for dinner? Leftover sausage rolls my mom made. Mmmm…
5. What would you eat for your last meal? Has to be cooked by my parents: steak, corn on the cob, potato salad (only my mom’s will do) and regular salad. Oh and bread and butter. Okay drooling now.
6. What’s the last thing you bought? Literally? 3 tins of cat food for my cat (the good, healthy stuff that is more expensive), some Kiss My Face shaving cream (best stuff ever) and a new Sigg water bottle.
7. What are you listening to right now? Some birds chirping, and the hum of an AC unit outside.
8. What do you think of the person who tagged you? Well I haven’t known J for long but she’s sweet and a fantastic writer, I love reading her blog.
9. If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished, anywhere in the world, where would it be? Now that I haven’t figured out yet. I’m still trying to figure out where I want to live – that’s not as hot as Texas, not too cold (I don’t do well close to zero degrees), no earthquakes, no tornadoes, no hurricanes. Near a lake or some form of water would be nice. Does this place exist?
10. If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go? The beach sounds lovely… feeling the warm sun, listening to the crashing waves… plus think of the pictures I could take!
11. Which language do you want to learn? I have always wanted to learn sign language. I took a class last spring and was doing pretty well, for a while anyway.
12. What’s your favourite quote (for now)? “All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.” -Edgar Allen Poe
13.What is your favourite colour? Pink.
14. What is your favourite piece of clothing in your own wardrobe? This skirt I have, it’s white with pink flowers on it, very bright, maybe kind of retro.. kinda hard to explain but it just makes me smile when I wear it.
15. What is your dream job? Right now, any job. Okay seriously… last summer I worked at Mother’s Day Out program at a church and I worked in the babies room. I was with babies that ranged in ages from a few months old until they started walking… and it has been my favorite job. Ever. Playing with them, reading to them, rocking them to sleep… if only it didn’t pay peanuts, I really think I’d still be doing it!
16.What’s your favourite magazine? Real Simple… I don’t buy it often (I don’t really buy magazines anymore) but I do like the tips and everything.
17. If you had $100 now, what would you spend it on? Probably clothes… maybe something cute to workout in, a nice top or two, a skirt…
18. Describe your personal style? Who knows, I don’t think you can call it a style. Jeans and a tee for weekends. Dressy pants and a semi-casual top for work. A skirt and a top for when I really want to feel nice about myself.
19. What are you going to do after this? Finish watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (recorded it and was watching last night but need to finish it)
20. What are your favourite films? The Notebook, Romeo + Juliet, Serendipity, Mamma Mia!, Wall-E, Curious George.
21. What’s your favorite fruit? Raspberries.
22.What inspires you? Everyone inspires me. The friends I have on flickr inspire me to be a better photographer. My friends inspire me to be a better friend. My blogger friends and the wonderful ways they write inspire me to be a better blogger and a better writer.
23. Your favourite books? Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert, The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom, the Harry Potter series.
24. Do you collect anything? I collect Precious Moments figurines, although I haven’t gotten a new one in ages. Oh and I’m hoping to collect James Avery charms for a charm bracelet – I told my parents that that’s what I want for Christmas!
25. Any advice from bitter experience? Don’t look back – when you break up, it’s for a reason so don’t try to make it work again. Once a liar, always a liar.
26. What makes you follow a blog? If it makes me laugh, if the writing is great, if it’s something I can relate to.
The end! So I’m going to tag… Beth, Kira, Meredith, and Matt.
