10 Things I've Done

One of my fellow blog competitors, Julie, posted this on her blog, challenging all of us to do it as well.


List ten things I have done that others likely have not. Yes Julie, this difficult.

1. I worked briefly in a psychiatric unit in Boston.

2. I went to New Orleans one year for spring break.

3. I was crowned "Miss Medford Lakes 1995". Don't even ask.

4. I went to Boston University for college and got a degree in Occupational Therapy (at the time there were very few colleges that offered degrees in OT).

5. I've seen the world's largest pumpkin at the Topsfield Fair (which I believe is the oldest fairground in the US) in approximately 1997.

6. I didn't sleep for 48+ hours during exams my Freshman year. Had I studied in advance this may not have been necessary. LOL.

7. I’ve dissected a human body. Gross anatomy was truly gross.

8. I've been on six cruises (which includes six cruise ships and six cruise itineraries).

9. I rode my bike to school every day until high school. In rain, sleet, and snow.

10. I had heart surgery at age 4. A valve that was supposed to close at birth never did, and my moronic pediatrician didn't notice it, but when I switched pediatricians he noticed within 5 minutes. Went in for surgery a couple of days later (they let me stay home to celebrate my 4th birthday first).
