Photo Tag

I saw this on Heidi's blog and its a list so I thought I'd do it. At the end of the blog, you tag other people to add it to their blogs. She didn't tag me, but I think I'm allowed to do it anyway. So, what you do is search for a picture on Google (or Yahoo!) Images in each category then post an image from the first page of results.

Age on my next birthday:



(26) nothing describes me better than math

A place I'd like to visit



Italy, of course

A favorite place



Not suprising: PITTSBURGH!

One of my favorite things:



I typed in 'my family'. This is close enough.

One of my favorite foods:



Adam, we should totally make a shirt of this one...Adam?...Adam?...

My favorite flower:



That's a Cala Lily and I've heard that it isn't technically a flower. Can I get a do over?

My favorite color:



Cerulean Blue

City I live in:



Salt Lake City, UT. Its been almost 6 years.

Name of a past pet:



I had a really hard time trying to think of a pet that I kept alive long enough to name. When I worked at Sherwin Williams we bought some fish and I named mine Kumquat. It lasted a week! Also, I love this artist.

A nickname I've had:



Typically nicknames are a shorter version of someone's name but that would leave me with Broo or just Ook.

My college major:



This image says it all. (Social Sciences)

My first job:



I was 15 when I started working at the Dollar Tree. I'm glad this image includes happy Dollar Tree employees.

A hope for 2008:



I've been working on my associate's degree for eight years now and by just doing an image search I've found that you can get degrees for only $50!


Okay, that was harder than I had expected but fun. So, now I will tag all of the people who read my blog and have a blog of their own and have not yet blogged this already. That's you Alexis.

living like a tourist

I've decided that I should start living more like a tourist. So, next time I go to NYC I have to go to the "touristy" places which include:
Statue of Liberty
Ellis Island
Brooklyn Bridge

And while I'm living here, I need to:
tour the Kennecot Copper Mine
go to the Tracy Avairy
swim in the Great Salt Lake
go to the Hot Springs
take some tours at Temple Square
churn butter at This is the Place Monument

Also, when I go to Vegas this summer (which is touristy enough) I'll:
watch the water show at the Bellagio
go to the Coke factory
see the Hoover Dam

Then I'm going to Los Angeles and I'll:
go to the beach
see a Jon Brion concert
Dodgers game...
eat In-n-Out (I would do that anyway)

I think within 5 years, I won't be living on this side of the Mississippi so I need to visit all of the places that people travel here to see. Also, I love going to New York City because its so relaxing to just wander around the city but I really should check out this statue of Liberty. Its been years since I last saw her. I'm thinking she's gonna look a lot smaller now that i"m so big!

Update: I just went to NYC and didn't do anything on the list and I haven't done any of the Salt Lake things yet. When I was in Vegas it was too windy to do the water show at the Bellagio, the Coke factory doesn't exist anymore, and we didn't go to the Hoover Dam. In LA I DID go to the beach, I DID see a Jon Brion concert which was at the same time as a Dodgers game so I could do both and of course I ate at In-N-Out. Not bad.
