Tagged by the lovely and talented sonyamsipes.


THE RULES:

* Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
* People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
* At the end of your blog, you need to choose (8) people to get tagged and list their names.
* Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.


MY LIST:

1. I graduated from UCLA, but usually support USC in sports except when they're playing UCLA.
2. I have lived in California all my life.
3. I have been to England three times and want to go again.
4. Some of my ancestors helped found Germantown, PA (now part of Pittsburgh).
5. I love sobe noodles—love them, love them, love them—but think they are a pain to cook.
6. One of my relatives married into the Dalton gang.
7. I really can't stand basketball.
8. I worked for one summer (between high school and college) at the La Brea Tar Pits cataloguing fossils and in the Microfossil Lab.


MY TAGS:

I think most everyone I know has been tagged, but if you want to play and haven't been, consider yourself tagged!

ooooooh! what a cooll job! (an archaeologist or physical anthropologist was what i wanted to be when I was a kid.)

I didn't know you were a UCLA grad, right on!

I have also lived in California 99.9% of my life (except my year abroad)

and noooooodles are the bestest!

Yeah, I wanted to be an archaeologist, too. Or a palentologist. Or an anthropologist. Or an Egyptologist. Or an astrophysicists. Or a geologist.

So I majored in English. :-)

lol...I majored in Biology! and switched to midwifery.
Do you use your degree as part of your work?

[pjthompson]

Tangentially. I do production work for a research organization and I've carved a little niche for myself where I am sometimes called upon to do "light edits" before client releases.
