I have not done one of these for a while and I was tagged by a new reader so thought…. why the hell not. It’s Saturday, the weather is great and I am feeling good. What better to set the evening off than a meme?

Mark Krusen from Just a Krusen tagged me, and laid down some rules for me to follow. They are as follow.

1. The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
3. At the end of the post,the player than tags 4 or 5 people and post their names,then goes to their blogs and leaves a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
4. Let the person who tagged you know when you have posted your answer.

So here goes…
1.What was I doing 10 years ago?

I was the grand age of 16, ten whole year ago. What would I have been doing?… I would have been finishing up my GCSE’s (last exams before leaving secondary school) and pondering my future. I would have been very much into a great range of indie / rock / metal and grunge music including the almighty Supergrass (I still love them!). I would have been awkward and not really very dateable (it’s to be contested even now, but my girlfriend seems to be happy with me thanks god!).

2.What are the 5 things on my to do list for today(not in any particular order).

• Catch up on reading all the posts in my Google Reader.
• Write a blog post about ‘A chip stealing seagull’ on my blog www.blogaboutanimals.com.
• Go to the shop for a soda of some sort.
• Start some sketches for a job that I am doing.
• Eat my lovely fresh looking melon.

3. Snacks I enjoy.

Melon, Pringles, Cola, Chocolate, Oranges, Trail Mix, the list is endless!

4. Things I would do if I were a billionaire.

• Volunteer and fund helpful projects at home and abroad for at least six months of the year.
• Run a useless blog with no monetization.
• Build a home in the Spanish mountains and buy a house here in Canada, plus one in Cornwall in SW England.
• Pay off debts for myself, friends and family
• Maybe buy a small ape sanctuary.

5. Three of my bad habits.

• Biting my nails.
• Constantly apologizing and feeling like I am a pain in the arse to everybody else.
• Jumping into things before fully learning. I normally jump into something, screw up, step back, learn, try again and make a decent job of it. Blogging has kind of worked out like that!

6. Five places I have lived.

• Plumstead, SE London, England
• Charlton, SE London, England
• Greenwich, SE London, England
• Westmount, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
• Burlington, Vermont, USA (only for 7 weeks, but I count it!)
• That’s it!! I will probably be moving to Liverpool, England later this year.

7. Five jobs I have had.

• Dish Washer
• Cold / Salad Chef and a small amount of Line Chef
• Macintosh Operator
• Design Manager
• Freelance Macintosh Artworker / Graphic Designer

Phew, that was a long thoughtful task. Now for the tagging. As always it’s completely optional and if I have not tagged you and you want to join in, please do. I’ll even add a link to this post.

Tag your it!!
