A meme has surfaced

I've been tagged by Val for this new meme. I tried tracing it back to it's source but gave up after 4 blogs so I'll say it's Val's meme!

4 Jobs I've had in My Life

Only 4?

  • Commercial Detergent Salesperson
  • Chef
  • College Bursar
  • Youth Pastor


4 Movies I Could Watch Over and Over

  • Schindler's List
  • The Incredibles
  • Any of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy
  • Zoolander

4 Websites I Visit Regularly

  • Statcounter.com (To see who's been coming to my blog and why?)
  • Darren Rowse's Problogger
  • Lots of gardening blogs

4 Favorite Foods

  • Grilled Eggplant (Aubergine for those who don't call it eggplant)
  • Roast Chicken - especially the cholestrol enhancing skin
  • Salted peanuts
  • Chocolate

4 Places I Would Rather Be Right Now

  • Bed - it's 6am on a Public Holiday
  • Basking on some deserted, sun-drenched tropical island with my wife
  • On a plane - I love travelling in planes
  • Laying on a hammock in the garden

4 Books I Could Read Over and Over

  • The Bible
  • Kane and Able - Jeffery Archer
  • My gardening encyclopedia
  • The Mighty Blues - A tribute book to the legendary Carlton Blues

4 Songs I Could Listen to Over and Over

  • As Val said - The Carlton themesong (especially after a game of football)
  • Love is all around - Wet Wet Wet
  • Vivaldi's Four Seasons
  • Any other football team's themesong after a win over Collingwood
4 Reasons Why I Blog
  • To stretch myself. Trying to balance being true to myself and encouraging others to come on my journey is not any easy task but a great challenge.
  • To meet new people. I'm making some great new friends through blogging which I didn't think was possible until I gave it a go.
  • To learn more about the things I talk about. I think I've learnt more about gardening through research for this blog than I have in the past 10 years of gardening.
  • To make a residual income which will hopefully free me up to do the things that I want to do, rather than have to do.

I'm going to tag Katina, Nelumbo and Erica. Enjoy!






Comments

I love The Four Seasons too, Stu, and in general anything by Vivaldi.

It is amazing how blogging can extend your horizons. I'm finding it easier to find like-minded people through blogging than in everyday life. Should I worry about that??

I can't take any credit for this meme, but I should have a go at making one up one day.

I thought I was the only person who thought Zoolander was hilarious!

Val - maybe like minded people are just becoming more spread out. I know I find that the more people I meet!

Nelumbo - isn't it just the funniest movie? I actually fell asleep the first time I tried watching (very tired - that's all), but I had to get it out again because everyone was raving about it, and with due cause.

I love Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson.
