Eight Random Facts About Adventures In Money Making
Super Saver over at My Wealth Builder has tagged me in a new blog project. This project calls for sharing 8 personal facts about myself, then tagging 8 other bloggers to do the same. Here are the rules , which were passed to me:
* Each player must post these rules first.
* Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
* People who are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
* At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight 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.
Eight Random Facts
1. I’ve lived on 3 different continents for significant amounts of time.
2. Even though I’m an engineer, I hate how gadgets have overtaken our lives. I resisted for years before getting a cellphone.
3. My watch costs more than my first car.
4. I’ll probably drive my car until it has 200,000 miles on it. I stubbornly resisted all efforts by my wife to give it to her and get myself a new one.
5. I’m incapable of explaining to a barber(ok, a hair dresser) how I’d like my hair cut.
6. I think at some point in my life I’ll move to either Australia or New Zealand and live there for a few years.
7. Thailand is my favorite place in the whole world to vacation.
8. I can’t stand people who do stupid things because they’re too lazy to do any research.
And finally I’m tagging 8 more bloggers (who hopefully haven’t been tagged).

Adventure,
Thanks for sharing.
I like #6. My first car was a gift from my parents. It was the 13 year old family car. So I guess my watch is worth more than my first car also

I had to pay for my first car, but it was an 11 year old celica.

You should know that it’s not just you.. you cannot tell any hair dresser how you want your hair- they will decide for you every time. The key is in finding a really good one and let them do their thing! I love the woman who does my hair- she knows me well enough by now and tells me what I want- and you know what? I’m always happy with what she does! lol

good to know I’m not the only one with a problem!
unfortunately, every person who’s done an excellent job either retired, quit or “disappeared” after giving me 1 good hair-cut.
I got an excellent cut on my trip to south east asia (for a whopping $3) in january. In february, this new guy did a phenomenal job for about $20. In March, the whole shop become another store!
