Tag: Things come in FIVE
I got a long line of tags waiting for me after taking a break from blogging last few weeks. I thought I had better complete this tag that I got from Giddy Tiger, before my list of tags-to-do start growing roots …. though I know as soon as I have completed a tag, more will come my way. :-)
Without further ado, here it goes the FIVE tag

What were you doing 10 years ago?
I just completed the first half of my masters degree and started writing up the dissertation. Unfortunately, it didn’t complete for another two years as I made an unwise decision to start teaching at a private college at the same time. I wasn’t aware how demanding first year of teaching and completing a dissertation could be.
What were you doing 1 year ago?
I was running an after school care, a tutoring service and a preschool. It didn’t help that hubby had to return to America twice to help his parents who suffer from cancer. Too much work and no play drove me insane, many white hairs and sleepless nights later, I stopped the after school care.
Five snacks you enjoy
Peanuts, Chocolate with nuts, Pistachios, Green beans(Ok, I am a nutty bean), Popcorn.
Five songs that you know all the lyrics to
I’m not good at remembering lyrics and I am tone deaf, my sisters used to laugh at me when I sang, because they said I was totally off. I used to be very conscious, but I don’t care this days, I sang loudly MY way during worships in the church. So, I’ll just name the five songs that I can sing from the beginning to the end MY way.:-)
- As the deer
- Climb Every Mountain (from The Sound of Music)
- ai de dai jia (Sylvia Chang Ai-Chi )
- yi tian dao wan you yong de yu (Zhang-Yu-Sheng )
- Amazing Grace
