I worked full time for a quite a few years, I have my own little
apt.  I have my own car.  I have a fabulous shoe
collection, make a great cosmo or margarita.  I can read a
book in a day, I think I can still jump rope double dutch (like
riding a bike..you don't forget).  I crack myself up all the
time.  I can shuffle my money around so Macy's still lets me
through the doors.  I think when I die they should name their
shoe section after me.  Is that shallow? Who cares.......
  I can't think of anything else...I'm so unremarkable
it's fabulous <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

here goes a mishmash of achievement, in no particular order.
I was school sports champion in 1st year, runnerup in 5th year. I played in the school 1st 15 at rugby union when I was in 3rd year. When in 5th year I played for Glasgow and district school rugby team, I missed out playing for Scottish schools because of a hangover..lol

I was house captain in 5th and 6th years at school.

I was disqualified from the British Tukido championship at first round stage , because I knocked my opponent out, hee hee, suposed to be a non-contact championship.

While working nightshift full-time I gained my HND in graphic design, That was a full time day course for three years.

Have worked for the same company for 20 years, last 13 on nightshift, keeps me out the road of the wife lol. Incidently thats where we met she has worked there for 23 years.

I have a 13 year old daughter and a 16 month old son

but my biggest achievement is........giving up smoking after 22 years.

Well lets see, I read a lot whole lot in junior high (they had a contest on who could read the most books, then you had to answer ?'s about the book, and if you pass, then you get a mark for reading that book.) I got the most so I won I believe a trophy. My 8th grade graduation, I got the most awards for I cant remember, but still have the papers, and some of the people thought that it was Jennifer show instead of a graduation. Mind you there were a total of probably 11 kids in the 8th grade, it was a very very small school, no highschool tho. I found the man of my dreams and got married, and up graded my car to a newer cavalier, bought a house, and one more achievement which hasnt happend yet but hope it does is to have twins, fraternal twins (1 boy and 1 girl) Thats it for right now, if I think of any more acheivements Ill post again.

Also I work full time and only called in sick with the flu one time in the 6 years Ive worked there. Before that I worked at Braums for 3 years and never caleld in for being sick.

Also I bought my first car with cash from saving my money working at braums.

hmmm... well, I graduated magna cum laude from my HS class of 752. I've competed in the state championships swim meets for 5 years, I play water polo for Baylor University (we got 2nd in state 2 years ago!!) and now I'm the captain. I ran a half marathon (13.1 miles) last semester and I'm hoping to run a marathon next year *crosses fingers.* Guess most of mine are athletic achievements...but I LOVE sports! I've also been on the Dean's list for 4 semesters and I'll be graduating in the spring...YAY!!!
