I've Been Tagged...

Sort of like framed...but way better!! Thanks to A 20 Something Muddle...this is my VERY FIRST experience is tagging so wish me luck but no broken limbs please. Here goes... {For those of you who are virginal like me in tagging here's how it works...you make up 11 questions you would like to know about your new blogging friends or your old friends. Then you paste them onto your blog (tagging the person who tagged you) and tagging new people! It's a great way to learn about your new friends or learn more about people you thought you already knew pretty well!}

My Questions:
1. How did you come to live in your current city? Everyone has a story...
2. Have you ever broken a bone or gotten hurt with an ultra embarrassing moment?
3. Finish this sentence... "Don't act like you never...." implying that you may not be the only one to have done said action.
4. If you have siblings, what is the most trouble you ever got into together? If you're an only child what is the most trouble you ever got into alone?
5. When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?
6. What is your dream job?
7. What would you tell the 16 year old you?
8. What is your fondest memory?
9. Your biggest pet peeve?
10. If you had no plans for Saturday...what would your DREAM day off include?
11. Would you rather have a manicure, pedicure, massage or facial? {You can only choose one!}

A 20 Something's Muddle Questions:
1. What one thing in your life do you feel most proud of?
I really think that studying abroad is something I am really proud of. It was a huge turning point in my life. I traveled Europe essentially alone. When the class was in Paris I faked illness and went out on my own pretty much every day. Shopping, exploring the Louvre and even finding amazing restaurants with the nicest baristas around. Sharing my adventures with them and creating relationships-some of which I still have today.
2. If you could have 3 wishes, what would the by and why?
I really think I would just wish really hard for 2 things...the first that my family could live forever...I am REALLY bad with death and it scares me to know that my mommy and daddy will not be around forever to share our ups and downs with. And the second is Security..financially definitely. Not having to worry about bills and if and when can we afford to start having children...it is a HUGE stress for me just like I am sure it is for everyone else!!
3. What is your happiest childhood memory?
It is so hard to just choose one....but every summer we went to the Florida Keys as a family. We would eat fish every day and Mom and Dad would let us order virgin daqueries. I fished off the back of my dad's boat with nothing but line and a hook {catching bait for the adults to use} and I can remember this one time like it was yesterday...I was bringing in the needlenose fish {we cut them and used them for bait} so fast that my Dad said "Woah you are catching them faster than we can use them" and I just remember having the biggest pride in myself for making my dad so proud. Looking back all I did was catch a lot of fish but it was really exciting to me to know that I was doing a good job....obviously my over-achieving started early in life haha...
4. Where do you see yourself in 10 years time?
Possibly being my own boss in a wedding planning company where I can be a stay at home mommy!
5. What are the top 10 things in your bucket list?
oh gosh. Scuba in Australia on the Great Barrier Reef, Backpack across Africa, Shop in Toronto, Go to another Fashion Week...New York or Paris, Have kids by the time I'm 30 {tick tock right?} Own a pair of CL or Monolos, and uhm....that's all I can think of :)
6. What are your feel good songs that make you smile when you're sad?
I'm walkin' on Sunshine and anything from the 90s....Slide, Scar Tissue, Closing Time....i <3 the 90s!!
7. If you had to choose 3 things that make you happy, what would you choose and why?
Well obviously I would choose my husband because he is my best friend and I am positive I would be lost without him, 2nd would have to be my family...See #2 above... and third would be my home...I love that I have a safe place to stay at night and I love how fulfilling it has been for me to decorate it. All I need is a roof over my head and family in my life...<3. (And of course my dogs....but that would be lumped in with Josh because they're our "children"
8. What is your tipple of choice?
Uhm...what is a tipple?
9. What would your perfect holiday or travel experience be? Describe it.
Oh man I could go crazy on this one but it would probably involve #1 on my bucket list. Travel to Australia and dive every day straight for a week on the Great Barrier Reef, then spend another week doing nothing but sight seeing and laying on the beach with a fruity umbrella drink {and of course the hubs}
10. What would your dream career be?
This is so easy because I am living it. I got a job before I even graduated college in exactly the field I wanted to be in. I am the Assistant Show Manager for a few of our consumer and trade shows and I absolutely love the quick paced, high stress environment. I thrive under stress and don't think I'm a freak but I absolutely LOVE the stress of my job. I do much better when I am busy and not bored and like some of you others out there if I am not stretched so thin I can't sleep then I am not happy, my mommy thinks it's genetic..a "Reichgott" thing but...I just don't do bored well. I think being a Show Manager would be my ideal ideal dream job...but mine is pretty darn good too :)
11. What advice would you give your teenage self?

Follow your gut...if you think a decision is the bad one but you still feel pulled to do it....then DO IT! Those experiences you will go through will give you the patience, wisdom and drive to accomplish anything and EVERYTHING that you set your mind to do. You will thrive and reach your goals...trust no advice and learn for yourself!!
