1. What is the cleanest area in your house and which is the dirtiest?
Actually, my house is a uniform shade of deep down clean with a smattering of lived in clutter.
2. Do you have your Christmas tree up yet and what does it look like? Colored lights? White lights? Tinsel? Etc. If not, when do you plan to put it up.
Oh, this was so cool to me... and I suppose it helps that I dont have kiddos, but when I was at Wal-Mart this past Saturday, they had these huge (and i mean HUGE) potted rosemary's shaped like Christmas trees for super cheap. So I bought one, its almost 2 ft. tall, and decorated it with tiny glittery fruit ornaments and some ribbon type stuff. Martha Stewart eat your heart out.
3. If there was one thing you would like to learn about or become more knowledgable about, what would it be?
Languages, correct pronunciation of words I have only read and never heard spoken aloud, Carpentry
4. If you could change your profession or degree, what would you change it to? And if your happy, why does it appeal to you or what is the best thing about it?
Errm... gah, have to get back to you on that one. Being this is only my first cup of coffee after a long holiday weekend, I havent decided if I still like my job yet or not. *grin*
5. Finally, If you could wave your magic wand and change one food item to fat free, calorie free or carb free, what would it be? Choose wisely =)
Pasta!
Okay Roll Call:
Sara, Tennessee, 285/275/155, nutritionist
1. What is the cleanest area in your house and which is the dirtiest?
The living room is the cleanest I think. My mom is a neat freak; my friend Misty used to call my house "the hospital". My room is the messiest, and my mom gets on to me everyday about it.
2.Do you have your Christmas tree up yet and what does it look like? Colored lights? White lights? Tinsel? Etc. If not, when do you plan to put it up.
We bought the tree yesterday, and we are decorating it tonight when my sister comes over
3. If there was one thing you would like to learn about or become more knowledgable about, what would it be?
Men, and how to live with them. I don't think it'll be impossible for Roger and I to get married/live together b/c I mean, we get along so well, we are best buddies, we are always laughing, and we always know what the other is talking about...it's weird..but then, he is a slob!! I cannot understand why he cannot clean his room or buy laundry baskets(he uses two boxes he moved in with for laundry), or just some other normal guy laziness things...=( I wish I could understand man.
4.If you could change your profession or degree, what would you change it to? And if your happy, why does it appeal to you or what is the best thing about it?
Well, I am in school to be an administrative assistant. I don't think I am going to be completely happy being someone's assistant. I am always the boss, so...I plan to go to college in a couple of years andget a degree in business administration.. I was to be the adminstrator, not the assistant.
5. If you could wave your magic wand and change one food item to fat free, calorie free or carb free, what would it be? Choose wisely =)

2. Do you have your Christmas tree up yet and what does it look like? Colored lights? White lights? Tinsel? Etc. If not, when do you plan to put it up. I'm not putting a tree up in my apartment. But at my parents, we'll put one up just before Christmas. We use white lights and the colors are red and gold.
3. If there was one thing you would like to learn about or become more knowledgable about, what would it be? Music. I wish I could read music and play an instrument.
4. If you could change your profession or degree, what would you change it to? And if you're happy, why does it appeal to you or what is the best thing about it? I'm currently a law student, and I'm really happy that I've chosen to go into this field. But sometimes I wish I'd gone into pharmacy.
5. Finally, If you could wave your magic wand and change one food item to fat free, calorie free or carb free, what would it be? Choose wisely =) Calorie free pizza sounds wonderful!

Cleanest is my room, dirtiest is the kitchen and bathroom.

My mom put our tree up about 12 minutes after Thanksgiving was over. Right now it's got white lights, with glittery colored ornaments and gold and silver bulbs, with gold pearls strung around it. Looks pretty swanky.
3. If there was one thing you would like to learn about or become more knowledgable about, what would it be?
Car repair and the stock market. Workin' on those..
4. If you could change your profession or degree, what would you change it to? And if your happy, why does it appeal to you or what is the best thing about it?
I'm happy with my degree, the problem is finding work in this crappy economy. I'm a visual person, and I love writing, so modern culture and media was my selection. I know I made the right choice for me. Now someone hire me!

Nope. It will look like this: red balls, white lights, gold beads. After grad school ends (or I'll pay my sister to do it).
3. If there was one thing you would like to learn about or become more knowledgable about, what would it be?
Women...LOL! Hmmm...I think I would like to become an uber-nerd in science.

I've always wanted to be a weatherman or astronomer. I've also wanted to be rich, a dream I'll never realize as a teacher, weathermna, or astronomer.
