I’ve seen this fun little survey floating around on a bunch of different blogs this week, so I thought it would be fun to do on my own! It’s Friday, and this evening is my work’s Christmas party, and that’s all I can really think about. So, easy-breezy post for today it is!
Four names people call me other than my real name:
1 – Steph (self-explanatory, right?)
2 – Titi Steph (this is what my nephew calls me)
3 – Doogie (my dad’s old nickname for me)
4 – Kister (okay, this is just a joke. This is how my mom and I pretend Dutch says my name. What? Your dog doesn’t have a specific voice and a name for you? Huh.)
Four jobs I’ve had:
1 – Babysitter, for a few weeks when I was younger
2 – Preschool teacher, during college
3 – Marketing assistant, first post-college job
4 – SEO copywriter, currently
Four movies I’ve watched more than once:
1 – Tommy Boy
2 – The Santa Clause
3 – The Shawshank Redemption
4 – Elf
Four books I’d recommend:
1 – Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
2 – Wild by Cheryl Strayed
3 – A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
4 – The Willpower Instinct by Kelly McGonigal
Four places I’ve lived:
1 – St. Petersburg, Florida
2 – Tampa, Florida
3 – Clearwater, Florida
4 – Largo, Florida
(Well, isn’t this list exciting?! Haha!)
Four places I’ve visited:
1 – Savannah, GA
2 – Ochos Rios, Jamaica
3 – Grand Cayman
4 – Cozumel, Mexico
Four things I prefer not to eat:
1 – Pumpkin pie, or any kind of pie, really
2 – Any type of Asian food
3 – Any kind of fish
4 – Sweet potatoes
Four of my favorite foods:
1 – Subs from Publix (I eat these at least once a week, usually twice)
2 – Cookies
3 – Pizza
4 – Mashed potatoes
(Don’t you love how these are all white, carby foods? Umm. Yeah.)
Four TV shows I watch:
1 – The Voice
2 – Scandal
3 – The Mindy Project
4 – The Biggest Loser
Four things I’m looking forward to this year:
1 – My work’s Christmas party (tonight!!!)
2 – Enjoying the Christmas season to its fullest
3 – My (hopeful) trip to NYC in the spring
4 – Moving to my own apartment in the summer
Four things I’m always saying:
1 – “Dutch, stop being a jerk.” (I say this daily during our walks. I’m such a nice dog mom!)
2 – “Sounds like a plan, Stan.” (To anyone. I actually know zero Stan’s.)
3 – “Okily dokily!” (Because I’m a dork.)
4 – “F*ck!” (I asked my mom if she could think of anything I say regularly, and this is the answer she came up with. I… um… may have a cursing problem. Maybe.)
What are four movies you’ve seen more than once and four books you’d recommend?
The Mindy Project is probably my favorite show that’s currently on TV. Mindy and Morgan crack me up.
LOL to the last thing you say. You rarely curse when we talk so that one made me laugh out loud =)
If I say “that’s a plan stan,” to Knight (or when I said it to my mom) they would both say “who is Stan!?” Aren’t they SO funny!?
Four movies I’ve watched more than once: The Green Mile, The Town, Finding Nemo, and Love Actually. (Which is now one of my favourite Christmas movies!)
You’re list of places you’ve lived is more exciting than my own! I’ve lived in two different places – my hometown and my current one! I’d have to break my current city into different neighbourhoods I’ve lived in to get to four places, haha.
I never would have guessed you are a curse-r! 😉
Ugh! I can’t believe you’re going to NYC AFTER I leave! This is so unfair! Okay, you have to tell me when you’re thinking about going so many I can go too. We’ve been thinking about going in the spring, but haven’t finalized any kind of date…. So let me know if this is a thing you’re going to do!
“Dutch stop being a jerk.” HAHAHAHAHA OMG I’m still laughing!
No seriously. Can’t. Stop. Laughing.
Steph, I’ve been a silent reader so far and I loved to read this post. You’re hilarious! Jerk Dutch…
Hahahah. I didn’t know you cursed. I always yell out, JESUS MOTHER FU*CK and then feel really badly about it. It just comes out!
I CUSS ALL THE TIME! I’m good about keeping it clean AT work but last weekend I hung out with all my coworkers socially and they were like “wow amber you swear a lot”. I think I’ve picked it up from Eric who has always worked in labour type jobs with lots of men so he cusses a lot a lot. haha
I have never seen Elf but seeing it on your list reminds me that I need to try to watch it this holiday season. I already did this so you know the answer to the list of movies I frequently watch!
Haha, it’s so fun to learn new things about you 🙂 I’d never guessed that you curse (people are always startled when I curse, too).
I’ve not watched any of the TV shows that you listed. Interesting.
