"16 Things"
Tagged by [info]wiggiemomsi

Rules: Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 16 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 16 people to be tagged.

1. My primary goal is to get a job this year either as an engineer or an english teacher in China (with a big help from a friend of mine).

2. I've lived in the same house on the same street, in the same city, and in the same state my entire childhood.


3. I love to bake for others. In fact, baking is one of the activities that I use to relieve myself when I'm stressed. I also find it fun to learn new recipes and methods for cooking.


4. The other activity I like to do when I'm stressed is cleaning the house, particularly vaccuming and organizing my bedroom.

5. I'm a dog person, but currently I can't have one. One wish I have is to get a dog again once I'm able to afford it and am allowed to house it where I live.

6. My greatest dreams would to be able to go to Mars and be amongst the first to study it first-hand. I've liked Mars since the 3rd grade when I did a huge project and presentation on the sister planet to Earth.


7. There are two kids in my immediate family, and insterestingly, my brother is seven years older than me. I'e been told that is an odd thing, but I've never understood why.


8. I've traveled to four of the seven continents in the world: North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.


9. I believe that anything is possible, but many things are just improbable. So I live by logic and rason, but I accept that fact that sometimes what doesn't seem probable can still happen.


10. My favorite hobby is writing, particularly stories, poems, and observational stories.


11. I'm currently finishing my journalism thesis, and despite that fact that I've done tons of work already, I still need to run more people this January (grrrrrrrr) before finalizing the paper for my defense. (sigh)


12. I'm not much of a pop/soda/soda pop drinker. I prefer tea, milk, or water.


13. My top five favorite Doctor Who campions, thus far, are Leela, Donna, Ace, Nyssa, and Romana I. I would also include Jenny in this list, but since she isn't technically considered a companion, I didn't.


14. I don't believe in astology, but I do find that I like my symbol: Libra, and that sometimes I find it accurate, but I assume that's just because I want it too, which is the biggest problem with it. Everything about it is too subjective


15. One day I'd like to be a mom, but I guess I'll first need to find the right guy (that's the hard part in my opinion).


16. I want to write my dad's biography one day, because he has the most interesting life of anyone I know. He started out poor in a large family and ended up well enough off and a doctor in statistics, teaching at a very good business school at USD. I envy him and he's good luck. I hope I'm at least half as lucky as him in my life.

Now I’m supposed to tag 16 people. So anyone of my lj friends that would like to, please go ahead. I'd love to learn more about you. :)

It's just so interesting, what we learn about others, with these 16 little statements! I'm having a great time reading the ones all my friends have posted.

"My primary goal is to get a job this year either as an engineer or an english teacher in China (with a big help from a friend of mine)." -- Wow! What kind of engineer? My husband is a structural engineer. And you must have SOME friend, to help you find employment in China!!

I really thought #16, your comments about your dad, were really, really sweet. Not many people have such positive feelings about their dads!
