Five Questions - Five Answers

By -

I borrowed this post idea from my blog pal Michelle over at A'etonu Family Adventures. She is full of fun ideas! Thanks Michelle!

So here are 5 questions with 5 answers.

Question 1: Where were you five years ago?
1. I just celebrated my 1 year anniversary working at a place called Choice Inc, where I worked with adults with developmental disabilities as a Case Manager. Never a dull day!
2. Officially started dating a guy named Josh. We stayed together 2 years after that. meh.
3. I was contemplating quiting my job to go to school full time for jewelry making. Which I later did!
4. I lived in a crappy little apartment in the heart of Uptown Minneapolis on Lake and Lyndale. But I really liked living there so it was worth it. Not even being mugged and having my car broken into numerous times would detour me!
5. I was 28 and I thought that was old!! Geesh.
Question 2: What is (was) on your to-do list today?
1. Tally up my points for my US Weekly draft club.
2. Go to a Baby Shower right after work

Question 3: What five snacks do you enjoy?
1. Cadbury Creme Eggs!
2. Chips, any kind really. I'm really into Garden Salsa Sunchips right now! mmmm!
3. Does a Chipotle Burrito Bowl count as a snack?
4. Gummy bears
5. Raspberries\strawberries\blueberries\blackberries


Question 4: What five places have you lived?
1. Watertown, MN. a small country town where i grew up.
2. Hillsboro, New Hampshire. I lived there for a year working at a crisis care facility
3. Beijing, China. I spent a summer teaching English there.
4. St. Paul, MN. The better Twin of the Twin Cities.
5. Minneapolis, several parts of the city including Linden Hills. The cutest part of the city!

Question 5: What five things would you do if you were a billionaire?
1. Take my whole family on a really fun trip somewhere warm!
2. Purchase an apartment in Paris
3. Buy a slightly larger home with a deluxe kitchen and a swimming pool

Kristina...
A group of us from work have an US Weekly club. We all get together, with a list of 50 male and 50 female celebrities and we do a draft. You end up with 5 girls, 5 guys. Then each week when the US Weekly copy comes out you tally up your points depending on where you find your people that week. The large cover picture gets 10 points, and so on and so forth from there. The person with the most points at the end of the draft season wins some $$!
It's super fun!

You are just so my kind of gal! Like Heather and I often reflect on, it must be the Minnesota in me (my Mom grew up in Hopkins).

I'm so glad you did this. You're so much fun! I love Cadbury eggs as well...one of the highlights of Easter! and it's funny because I lived in a Watertown...only it's in upstate NY. and I have a Starbuck's mug from Beijing only because my sister-in-law competed in Judo at the Summer Olympics there. I bet it was great living there. Do you still make jewelry? I'd love to see some of what you make!

I used to live for Chipotle burritos! Though I'm kind of over them since I've had SO many in the past few months.

Yay Cadbury Eggs!

I loved this post! I laughed when you said that you were 28 and thought you were old because I am currently going through that problem right now! I swear, I'm getting wrinkles! Haha!

AND you taught English for a summer in China? I taught English for a summer in Rome! With a TEFL certificate! Wasn't it such a great experience?

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
