1998 ~ I was a Sophomore at Oregon State University on exchange in London, England. I was living in West Harrow, London with an Irish Host family. I loved my time on exchange. I took History of London, British art and architecture and British theatre. The theatre was my favorite part ~ saw lots and lots of plays and musicals... and RENT at least a dozen times. I traveled to Greece, Holland, Belgium and Ireland with my classmates. My parents, little sister and the Reed family came at the end of my exchange ~ We "did" London together and then my family and I spent time all over Scotland.
2. What 5 things are on your list of things to do today?

3.) Take a nap
4.) Go to church
5.) Watch Bella dvd in my jammies ~ enjoy a quiet solo Saturday night in!
3. What snacks do you enjoy?
Snacks are my weakness. Right now I'm into sugar free pudding with fat free cool whip, a banana and cashews ~ all mixed together! It's my creation. Salty and sweet! I love apples and peanut butter, "tart" frozen yogurt with strawberries on top. My favorite treat ever (and if I could eat it every single day and not weigh 700 pounds) is called a Big Foot from The Chocolate Cafe. It's decedent marshmallow crisp rice crunch, layered with creamy caramel, topped with natural roasted peanut butter, and covered in rich Belgian chocolate!
4. What would you do if you became a billionaire?
I would give to my church's ministry to help combat HIV and take care of orphans all over the world. I would travel. First stops would be Alaska, South America, Africa and Australia. I would buy houses in Bend, Oregon, New York City, New York, Laguna Beach, California and Georgetown, Grand Cayman. I would buy a convertable, Mini Cooper, Hummer and a big fat custom Motor home / RV. I'd give money to my family and friends AND to ST. JUDE CHILDREN'S RESEARCH HOSPITAL.
5. What are your bad habits?
Multitasking ~ talking on the phone, playing solitaire on my iPod, checking my BlackBerry, watching TV and chewing gum... tend to make the person that I'm talking too, think I'm a little distracted. I also can be a little impatient with myself and want things to happen instantly. I'm working on this!
6. Where have you lived?
Houston ~ Texas, Villa Park ~ California, Black Butte Ranch ~ Oregon, Corvallis ~ Oregon, Greenwich ~ Connecticut, London ~ England, Portland ~ Oregon, Redlands ~ California, Colton ~ California, Memphis ~ Tennessee and Aliso Viejo ~ California.
7. What are 5 interesting jobs you've had?
1.) Babysitter for strangers at the resort town (Black Butte Ranch) I lived in.
2.) Housekeeper at The Best Western. (This, I must admit, was short lived... I was "promoted" to front desk at Coldwell Banker Realty (owned by the same folks!)
3.) Bus girl.
4.) Childbirth supporter / coach in Labor and Delivery with teenagers... (Part of my job as a Child Life Specialist)
5.) Scrapbook maker!
