My name is Nissa...and I'm a Lost addict

One of those survey things
Amy had this on her blog, and I thought I'd do it...

10 years ago:
I was in my senior year of high school. I honestly don't remember much about what I was specifically doing in March of 1998...it was a month before my 18th birthday...I know I had a major case of senioritis and was so ready to go off to UMHB and do my own thing. I was working as a nanny for two girls that I absolutely loved!

Things on my to-do list today:
- Set up for G.A.'s, Sunday School and J.A.M.
- Work on the Kids' Worship Guide.
- Check with Meagan about when to do our girls' night next week
- Read next chapter of Systematic Theology book for class tomorrow night

What would I do if I were suddenly made a billionaire:
I agree with Amy. I can't wrap my head around this much money. I know I would pay off my parents' debts, my debts, maybe even my brother and his family's debts. Definitely tithe and then give a separate offering designated to the children's ministry so I could redo the children's area like I want it. Buy a new car and new house for Meg and me. Give HER money for college (I know how much that stuff costs), so that she doesn't have to stress out so much about work. I would give a bunch to children's charities. I think that I would quit my job and try my hand at writing like I've always wanted to! Or at least try to find some training to help me in that area.


Three of my bad habits:
1. Kicking my shoes off when I walk in the door and then not taking them upstairs.
2. Hitting the snooze button more than once.
3. Fidgeting with my rings (when I wear them)


Five jobs I have had:
1. Nanny
2. Youth Intern at FBC Temple
3. Music/Children's Intern @ FBC Temple
4. Children's minister at FBC Temple
5. Children's minister at North Pointe Baptist Church


Five things people don't know about me:
1. I worked at Foley's for a month the summer after my freshman year at college.
2. I watch Supernatural. (Jensen Ackles is so good looking!)
3. I currently have a 3.78 GPA in my graduate program.
4. My shortest "relationship" in junior high lasted 45 minutes. (and I'm using that word loosely).
5. I secretly sometimes wish I could be on American Idol.
