Ok here goes:
I'm 22 years old.
I work for a bank and I do telephone banking which means 24/7 365 days a year of answering phones and assisting customers with all their banking needs
I went to school at the University of Western Ontario in London, ON for a year, and now I'm doing distance education through Athabasca University.
I'm dating my high-school sweetie, we've been together for 6 years and now we're living together.
In my down-time I like to shop on the internet (Ebay!) and watch movies and tv on DVD which I absolutely love.
What makes me tick? That's a good question, I really don't know. I'm driven most when it comes to school, I love to learn and really want to get my degree. I also really enjoy my job, and so that motivates me to manage to get up and going everyday when I feel like crap. And my little secret is that when I'm really down, I listen to my old CD's of a boyband called Take That (from early 90s) which lets out my inner geek and never fails to cheer me up!

what do you do for a living?
Um, I don't know.. I was a travel agent.. before that a waitress.. Now I work in a bar. My "Big Girl Job" is supposed to be an Administrative Officer for the Metropolitan Police in London, but they have been doing checks and stuff since August and still aren't done so I haven't actually been able to start my new job. I am thinking it may never happen.

how old are you?
21

Where did you go to school? I went to the local college where I lived and am a few credits short of an Associate of Arts Degree (which is basically half of a real degree). I intent to get that, then transfer to a University after we go back to Canada.

are you married, dating, single? I am dating the most wonderful man on this side of the Atlantic named Adrian. We have talked about getting married but it's more of a "one day..." thing I think - I'm still young, I think! We will be together one year on the 22nd of this month. He is immigrating to Canada in December. *swoon*

what do you do in your down time? Hang out with the boyfriend, play cards (I love card games!), read, watch reality TV, watch the O.C., my newfound guilty pleasure, cook, go for walks, go shopping, take cat naps, listen to music, talk to my friends on MSN from Canada. In Canada, I like to play with my 2 dogs, play with my 4 year old neice, hang out with my sister, drink 'til I can't feel my feet (I don't do that one since leaving Canada, but it was a bit part of my life for quite some time).

what makes you tick? My boyfriend. My best friend Arley. Cross word puzzles. Songs with lyrics that try to rhyme words that don't actually rhyme. The list goes on and on...

what do you do for a living?
Still trying to figure that out. I was hired on to do payroll and HR for a packaging company, but somehow got A/R added on there. For the next two weeks, my role also includes receptionist until I can hire a new one, since my new one just flaked out on me.
how old are you?
Just turned 22!
where did you go to school?
Been going part-time to community college at Ohlone and San Jose City for 4 yrs now (I'm the 43rd graduating class of Ohlone next month for my AA!) and am currently attending San Jose State for my bachlor in Administration of Justice.
are you married, dating, single?
Dating my hunny, Jason - who tends to keep track of my IBS diet more than I do! Technically, we've only been serious a month now, but we've been dating for over 6 months and friends for 3 yrs.
what do you like to do on your down time?
Well, when I get time, I like to keep busy by keeping my boys out of jail with their sometimes stupid stunts, ride my motorcycle, fishing, cross-stitch, crabbing, and watch my adorable cousins.
what makes you tick?
Hmm.. that's a good question. My boyfriend and family play a huge role. My boyfriend watches out for me when often times I don't, and my family supports me in any decision that I make. Everybody is always willing to help me out, too.

Well, I run an optical store. Its a small office, just the Dr and myself so I do EVERYTHING! the Dr. owns 2 other offices some distance away so he only works 2 days a week, the rest of the time, I'm in the office by myself.

I'm 33

I never actually attended college I was married the first time when I was 18, my husband at that time went to school and I worked full time in a pharmacy. We lived in a college town so I did a lot of "college stuff!" even though I didn't actually take any classes.

I was remarried when I was 29.

I love to garden and "fix-up" our house. We live in a very old house, it was built in 1922 so there is a lot of fixing up to do!

Not sure what makes me tick, still trying to figure that one out!

I have three friends at Boeing right now, the one I was talking about was Sandy McPherson. I can't remember Mark and Ryan's last names at the minute. I need a nap.

Yeah, Wash U is right in the middle of the city. Parts of it were hard... I guess it has a really good ranking for undergrads. You wouldn't always know it from their papers though. It's right by Forest Park and the Loop.

It's funny... I've never heard of Maryville. Guess our paths never crossed!
