Hmmm, 25 things about me, tagged 3 times, lets see how I do....

1. My trip to Las Vegas in November was my first real vacation in 6 years. Saturday I will be leaving to Mexico for a week :)

2. I'm extremely competitive and for me to keep going, sometimes you have to let me win. But you'll have to do in a way that I don't know you're doing it, otherwise I'd be mad.

3. The events of 2006 have changed my life forever. I learned the most lessons in 2006/2007 than I ever have and am thankful for the wakeup call and experience

4. I love animals, big or small, hair or no hair. I even make Ryan escort spiders or bugs out of the condo without hurting them. ( Mosquitos are the only exception)

5. I never do one thing at a time, I'm always doing 5, sometimes it shows in my absentmindedness.

6. I have a real tough time sitting still, I need to be doing something I deem constructive at all times. 1 hour tv shows are torturous to me. Yet I can sit for 3 hours and play Fable 2....

7. I really enjoy volunteering. I'm doing the 24 Hour Relay again for Camp Easter Seals this year and am having a great time fundraising and planning for it. It's a great cause.

8. I donate to the local SPCA every month. It's a cause I feel strongly about and it's a way I can help.

9. I live with my 2 best friends, Ryan and Bunnyrat, I couldn't be happier.

10. I find technology interesting, but I've lost a little bit of my passion for it. I have a hard time doing it on my own after work. On the other hand, I do what I like at work now, that would be too much at home as well.

11. I'm goal driven. I had a list of things to accomplish before I was 25. I did all of them except for 1. Now I have a list of things to accomplish before I'm 30 and am glad to report I'm on the right track.

12. I'm very close to my family. I miss not seeing them as much as I used to.

13. I want to do lots of travelling and have found a perfect partner in crime to do that with, and a job that will allow it.

14. I don't really like shopping. It may seem like I do but I don't. I don't mind clothes shopping or window shopping, but any other type, I make a list and I get in and out as quick as possible. Sometimes I don't mind the thrill of the hunt for the best deal...

15. I love summer, beaches, pools and the lake. If I could combine those in some sort of way so I get paid, I would be overjoyed.

16. I love exercise. I can't sit still but if I go to the gym or for a swim or a bike etc, I can get myself to settle down for a bit after, like now.

17. Most of my friends are women now. A couple years ago I had way more guy friends than I did girl friends. I learned my lesson the hard way and am happy the way things turned out.

18. I love the CBC, I like the TV channel, I love the news website, I love Radio 3 and the Galaxie radio channels. I can't get enough.

19. I believe that everything happens for a reason and have no regrets for anything. It's all part of something bigger than me.

20. I sometimes forget to take care of myself. I put everyone before me. A good example is I've made sure Bunnyrat is fed in the morning, I make Ryan a sandwich for lunch in the morning and then I forget to make myself one, or I forget mine on the counter.

21. I have a celeb crush on Ben Affleck and have no idea why.

22. My right foot is bigger than my left foot. It's sometimes hard to buy shoes :S

23. My legs are insanely long for a person of my height and torso abnormally short. I usually have to go to a bigger center to buy pants.

24. I hate the radio. Or radio stations in Saskatoon anyways. I find it sexist and offensive most of the time. Yesterday one of our stations was playing "Which celebrity was breastfed" Come on! I prefer listening to Talk Radio.

25. I love music. All different kinds. I'm not a huge fan of the Top 40, but I love rock music.
