interview meme

April 20th, 2006

a question meme, from sarah.

if you want to participate..
1) leave me a comment saying, “interview me.”
2) i will respond by asking you five questions of a very intimate and creepily personal nature. or not so creepy/personal.
3) you WILL update your LJ (or other blog) with the answers to the questions.
4) you will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post. when others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.


and here’s my questions/answers…

1. What do you consider to be the most defining point of your life thus far?
i don’t have one particular point. its a continuing journey… but i’d say my learning about God and applying it to my life. i’m learning more every day… so it’s hard to pinpoint a particular point that defines my faith. -)

2. Pick one picture that you own that you would consider to be one of your most memorable moments. Tell me about it.
you know me.. i can’t choose just ONE photo. but how bout one series of photos?


so yea.. that was on the road with watermark… it was just a moment where i felt happy… loved.. crazy… myself… free… peaceful..

3. You’ve made a lot of connections with people through the internet – tell me about how you got into it, and a little bit about those connections that you’ve made with people.
heh. this is true. -) i concider eacy one of those people that i have met on the internet / met in person / both to be a tremendous blessing to me. i’m a ‘networker’ when it comes to people. (my friends will agree.) if i know two groups of friends… i will want to plan some sort of gathering so that both of those groups can meet and become friends as well. i love the fact that i have friends all over the world. it’s hard at times.. since i want to travel and visit them all.. ALL the time… but it is really awesome. i love seeing how big this world is.. and yet how small it is at the same time. -)

4. If there was a crisis and you could only save ONE piece of computer related equipment (hard drives, iBooks, digital cameras, flash drives), what would you choose and why?
i don’t like this question at all. *pouts* it’s sad that you know me so well… grr. but anyways.. i guess i’d have to go with a laptop.. since it’s all encompassing of all the ‘stuff’ it needs. -P

5. Music has been completely eradicated from the world. What would you do?
die. no really. i would probably go crazy.. because silence scares me. i fill my empty silence with music. if not music in some form of speakers and/or headphones… then in my head. there is constantly some sort of music going through my head. i make up beats to go with the music that the birds and cars make. i sometimes hum along to the buzz of a refrigerator….

friday… w3rd

April 7th, 2006

it’s crazy.. but it’s friday. i’m happy about this. i’m REALLY happy about this. i’ve got some really cool things to look forward to this weekend.

here’s a bit of a recap / look forward to my life.

so this week has been crazy busy with work. i’ve got a lot of stuff piled on my to-do list… but i’m slowly but surely checking stuff off. i did post about how i ordered my new laptop… well the first of the many pieces came today. i got my free printer (well.. not free.. until after the printer rebate). i can’t wait for the actual computer to show up… it’s in transit. it’ll probably be here monday or tuesday. *dances* -)

yesterday night i felt like it was YE night on my phone… since two ye alumni called me… one of which being my teammate. -)

and that brings up a fun possibility for this weekend… tomorrow actually… i may drag ryan down to chicago to meet up with kate, sunitha and other ye peeps… and go DANCIN! ooohhh.. that sounds like my sort-a thing. -) i sure hope everything works out and i get the chance to visit with old friends and have a good time in chicago. -)

and looking further in the future… my jazz quartet has some cool gigs coming up. so if you are in the area.. or think you could TRAVEL to the area… here’s the info. we’ll be playing at the art bar next week, friday the 14th of april. (yep.. that’s good friday). we’ll be playing around 7:30-10. this should be fun. bring yourself and 897,367 of your closest friends (ok.. maybe the place wouldn’t be able to fit that many people.. but hey.. lets try!). and then the second one is a big birthday bash (michele korb‘s 40th birthday) at ruby g’s cafe & expresso bar on friday, may 26th. this one will be a $5 cover.. but you get to here not just one… not even two.. but FOUR great bands in one night. this gig will be from 7-midnight and is gonna be super fun. the bands playing are: metafour (that’s us), mrs. fun, janet planet and tom theabo, and KD band. this birthday bash is bound to rock your socks right off your feet. w3rd (and notice both those gigs are on a friday night? if you are from out of town.. you know what that means right? ROAD TRIP to MILWAUKEE! w00t!)

so i think that’s about it for me. i’m stuffed from the free pizza that we got here at the office (well.. the pizza wasn’t free.. but it was bought by someone else.. so therefore was free to me. and man… that’s some good pizza for free) so it’s time for me to get back to work. -)

Socially Smart

As a socially smart person, you are best with others in real-life situations. This type of intelligence is closely linked to being ‘street smart.’ Theories and such are not much concern: the things that matter tend to be those which you can see, feel, touch – what you can really experience. This knowledge comes to you both out of a natural knowledge, as well as learning from the situations you find yourself in.
