I was just bitching about all the blog posts I need to write, sitting in my backlog, mocking me... and low and behold, someone else adds another to the list!  But this should make for a nice light break from all my emo posts lately, so without further ado... (ack my css needs fixing, but I have no time right now, sorry for the ugly bullets!)

5 Things I was doing 10 years ago:

  • Bursting with excitement and settling into my new home with my three new roommates atop Burnaby Mountain, trying to figure out the AQ.
  • Playing piano in the SFU jazz band.
  • Taking my first course in contemporary art theory from the amazing Ken Anderlini and feeling my brain expand.
  • Making friends with an unlikely computer nerd from England (long before I got into anything very computery) who became one of my best friends for the year he was in Canada.
  • Grocery shopping via the bus with a very large backpack.

5 Things on my to-do list today:

  • Finish writing and post this blog entry.
  • Help Scott move the rest of his stuff into storage.
  • Wash dishes.

5 Things I would do it I was a millionaire:

5 Places I’ve Lived in (for various lengths of time):

  • Saskatoon - house I grew up in.  17 years.  Some of my belongings still live there.
  • SFU townhouses -better part of 2 years.
  • House on Aubrey St. in Burnaby - about a year (?), with Scott (who I was dating at the time) and Tall Scott; various friends lived here for many years all together.  (This photo is from summer 2003 the day we got back from our 2 month road trip across the country.)
  • We made it!

  • Condo at UniverCity (at SFU) - 2 years, with Scott during grad school, by far the newest and nicest condo I lived in: gas fireplace, insuite laundry, 2 bathrooms, gas stove!
  • Current apartment - 1 year, 7 months and counting.

5 Jobs I have had:

  • Biotechnology textbook editor.
  • Office assistant.
