Cangaroo | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 10:17 pm     I'm think a telling question would be "tell about your most embarrassing moment", but I'm not gonna tell mine, LOL. |
Aus10 | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 05:06 am     LOL.... *in my best Sophia Patrillo voice* Picture it, 1976. A High School Gymnasim packed to the rafters. A group of high school cheerleaders starts running out on the floor, jumping and clapping, and one of the girls goes flying accross the floor, face first tripping over her own two feet. Landing face first, flat on her chest, but wanting to seem inconspicuous, instead of standing up a walking the foot or so to her spot for the cheer, she unthinkingly crawls on all four to her spot thinking no one has seem her..........Right. At least she got a standing ovation from the crowd. |
Jan | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 06:27 am     LOL very funny Aus..I bet you didn't laugh about it then , though for me it was one of the few memories I have from childhood...when I was about 11 and fooling around with my sisters and friends in the backyard. I went in to the bathroom. When I came out, everyone was laughing at me. It seems the toilet paper stuck to me and was trailing out the back of my pants and down to the ground. How completedly mortifying it was at the time (but funny now) |
Kaili | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 07:05 am     Okay- I am back and here's the updated list (thanks for adding questions Tater and Scorpiomoon!!!) I'll answer them too now. 1. If there were no restrictions put on you, what would you like to do? I don't really think there are that many restrictions in life besides time and money (and motivation in my case), but I would like to: get a pilots license, go back to school (taking enough classes at a time where it wouldn't take years and years), and travel more. 2. List a weird/interesting fact about yourself. If I plug my nose and hold my breath then try to blow, the air comes squeaking out of my left eye socket. I discovered this I don't know how when I was in high school. My biology teacher thought it was pretty cool. Also, I haven't lived in a house my whole life. When I was about 3, my mom, aunt, two cousins, and I lived in tents in the Prescott National Forest (AZ) for a few months, then later near LaGrande, OR we lived in a small cabin with no electricity or water. My mom likes to tell people that she "housebroke" me. We had a goat and a dog living with us in the cabin too. I should add, we weren't doing this because we had to...my mom was working the whole time. This was a choice cause I guess it sounded fun or something 3. What's your earliest childhood memory? My earliest memory is a dream I had when I was a baby and I have always remembered it. I haven't thought about it in a long time though. I remember being in my crib (yep, we did live in houses too!!!) and the wall of my crib dissolved into looking like the outside and a bunch of knights with long swords were riding past me on horses. They had the swords with striped colorful handles that smoothly curved back to cover their hands and they has crests hanging over their armor. My earliest awake memory is of the day my mom left my dad and took me with her. I was three (this was a few months before the tent- we moved into a house with my aunt/cousins/uncle then my aunt also went for a divorce so the whole herd of us headed to the woods). I was sitting on the couch looking at something and I don't remember them fighting, I just remember my mom scooping me up and that we left. 4. Do you belong to any clubs/organizations? National Council for the Social Studies, National Council for History Education, National Council for Geographic Education, and since I work at UPS right now, I'm also a Teamster member. 5. Tell me something you would like to learn (either about or how to do) I want to fly, as I said before. I also want to learn how to crochet a blanket. I decided to do something about it so I bought some yarn, a how to book, and the needles yesterday. I'm not very good. 6. What is/was/would have been your college major? Was Geography and Secondary Education (6-12) Social Studies- If I were to go back, I would also want to take more classes in Criminal Justice and Social Work. More English and Journalism too. 7. What states have you lived in? Short version: Wisconsin, Oregon, and Arizona. Long version: Born in Wisconsin, moved to Arizona (Prescott) at about 2 years old, then to Oregon (and all over there: Salem, Monmouth, LaGrande/Elgin area, Seaside in no particular order) at about 4 years old, then back to SE Wisconsin at about 10. Lived there until going to college in Arizona (Flagstaff). Went to school there for 2 years then transferred to UW-Oshkosh in Wisconsin. have lived in this area ever since. 8. List two websites you go to often (sorry, TVCH doesn't count here!!!) Hardly any Mostly Wisconsin.gov for job searches and wheresgeorge.com to enter serial #s on money and see if anyone else enters the info after I have marked and spent the bill. You can track where your money travels to if other people bother with it. i've only gotten one hit so far and it was only about 10 miles away. 9. What makes you laugh? Being tickled!!! LOL- and other people laughing, and some dry humor and silliness. 10. Elvis or the Beatles? (Okay, that one's a joke...) It really was a joke! Just cause of that whole thing about the world being divided into two types of people.... Well anyway, I gues I have to answer too. Beatles. 11. Finish this sentance with no more than three words: I am a.... I am a good person 12. What is your most important goal to accomplish in the next five years? I want to have a job teaching, and I want to be taking classes toward my masters (darn it, 7 years on two bachelors could have already gotten me it!!) 13. What one thing have you done that most people haven't? Lived in a tent! I'm really not all that adventurous. I'm a big chicken. Okay one thing is I got caught picking my nose on TV when I was really little (I was in the audience at some Bozo the clown type show only it was local), also I have kayaked to the Apostle Islands to camp (they're in Northern Wisconsin- it's really not taht big of a deal, but I don't think tehre's a ton of people doing it either). 14. Where is the most fun place you have ever been? I honesly have more fun going up north to visit my mom than I have on most vacations. Vacations are fun, but stressful. It's not stressful going up there, and we go out for dinner, kayak, go riding, snow shoe, ski, whatever depending on the season. 15. Would you consider yourself to be romantic? Not really. I too have my moments but overall, no. 16. If you had to lose one right or freedom, but you could pick which one, what would you pick? I agree with the right to bear arms. I'd be fine without it. I would say the right to not have to house soldiers, but what if a bunch did decide to invade my house? 17. Would you rather give up listening to music or watching television? Music. I can make music in my head and I don't listen to it much as it is. I listen to NPR more than music radio and I never have my stereo on at home. Thanks for playing everyone! |

I know there are ‘cures’ for some of these, but what I wish would be for an all-encompassing prevention of or an all-encompassing cure for all. 2. List a weird/interesting fact about yourself. I love miniatures, especially Hallmark ornaments and doll house scaled miniatures. I sometimes even dream in miniature. Not of miniatures, but in miniature. 3. What's your earliest childhood memory?

Do you belong to any clubs/organizations? I feel bad, but no (other than TVCH). As work got more stressful and time consuming, clubs that I did belong to were the first to go and I haven’t had the motivation to start up with them again (as things are slowing down a bit more). 5. Tell me something you would like to learn (either about or how to do) I would like to be knowledgeable about everything but in particular I would like to be more knowledgeable of the internet, web-page design, cooking, drawing, painting, gardening, etc. 6.

Elvis or the Beatles? (Okay, that one's a joke...) I’m not of the generation wars on this one. I like songs from both, but I remember being heart broken at the worlds response to Elvis’s death. 11. Finish this sentence with no more than three words: I am a.... sentimental gal 12. What is your most important goal to accomplish in the next five years?

To be mean or cruel to others for whatever reason. 17. Would you rather give up listening to music or watching television? It’s like flipping a coin on either being deaf or blind. I love both, for differing reasons and times in my day. I guess I would have to choose to give up watching TV (gasp!) because music is peaceful and drowns out the clutter of the world at times. 18. What was the latest notable event in your life. (death in the family, wedding, new job, new car, etc.) The addition of a loving man in my life. 19. What's your favorite cartoon?
