6. To learn Spanish.

Here goes...
1. Hawaii...it was BEAUTIFUL, but we needed more than a week to see and do everything!
2. Haven't watched this season, so I don't really know.
3. Stay at home mom now, but taught before...5th grade for one year and Kindergarten for 2.

Long term - To get my Masters in Elementary Education (online) before I go back to teaching...or atleast be nearing the end of it.
7. I dated a foreign exchange student from Iceland in high school. I'd like to forget this one. :)
8. Neither...if I have to pick a coke product it would be Sprite.
9. For something REALLY recent, I'd say I vacuumed and swept and mopped. I'm ashamed to say that that doesn't happen a whole lot these days.
For something not so recent I'd say carrying three babies in my belly at one time and spending 7 weeks in the bed on LOTS of medicine and surviving is something I'm proud of.
