Tagged... again

I was tagged, so here you go:

10 years ago:
I was a freshman at Texas A&M University (whoop!) 10 years ago! I can't believe it was really that long ago. The spring semester of my freshman year is when I met those who would be and are still among my best friends. These friendships are what made my college years what they were - seriously some of the best days of my life. I have the best memories with these friends of living together, going to football games, studying at Sweet Eugene's, going on small weekend trips, laughing so hard, devising our next prank on Pat's house, staying up until 3am just talking. We were (and are) there for each other to celebrate with and to cry with. I LOVED those days!

Things on my to-do list today:
Finish the field layout for a big event I'm planning in a few weeks
Prepare the agenda for a meeting with my committee this afternoon
Organize/clean my desk
Meet my friend at the gym to work out
Make dinner and eat it
Do my taxes
Put away my clean clothes
(ugh... Mondays are so boring!)

What would I do if I was suddenly became a Billionaire?
This is hard for me to imagine. I know I would give a large chunk to my friend who is moving to Madagascar, Africa to do some mission work. I would buy a house, invest some, quit my job and travel a bunch (and I would pay for friends to travel with me). I would give to my church and other ministries - especially international ministries that deal with human trafficking.

Three of my bad habits:
1. Clenching my jaw
2. Letting my room get messy when I'm busy
3. Forgetting to get my oil changed (the oil man yelled at me yesterday for this)

Five jobs I have had:
1. Event Planner
2. Product Development Director
3. Office Manager
4. Administrator
5. Nanny

Five things people don't know about me:
1. I have come to really enjoy time with myself - Saturday mornings are my favorite.
2. When I was little I was called Annie - some of my family still calls me this.
3. I am an "actor" in kid's videos that are sold to churches around the world. I've been recognized in strange places which is really creepy. And, no, you will never see these videos.
4. I have become really good at saying 'no' and not feeling bad about it - SO freeing. I used to say yes to everything... and them complain about how busy I was or how much I hated doing what I agreed to do.
5. I have been in 19 weddings (i know) and had a friend that began writing a script entitled "Always a Bridesmaid, Never a Bride" that was loosely based on this part of my life. When "27 Dresses" came out, he stopped writing it indefinitely.

Now I'll tag 5 people: Allie, Alissa, Courtney W, Julie, Shawna
