Yet another meme is doing the rounds, this time I’ve been tagged by Phu.
I’m not a massive fan of memes, as a general rule it has to be said..
However, they do often begin to experience the “chinese whisper” syndrome and can change subtly from one blog to the next, that in itself, can be a fascinating thing to observe, as each ‘internet meme’ recipient stamps their take on the meme. Indeed occasionally so much so, that the meme evolves into something completely different and the cycle begins again.
There-in lies the conundrum — once one has completed a ‘meme’ and dilligently passed it on, the very same meme evolves into something else and gets passed to you once again.
Thus, here then, are my 4 things in no particular order..
Four jobs that I’ve had
- Tourism
- Electronics
- Sales
- Systems Analyst
Four movies I can watch over and over
Four places I have lived
- Nelson, NZ
- Wellington, NZ
- Auckland, NZ
- Adelaide, AU
Four TV shows I like to watch
- House
- The Family Guy
- Battlestar Galactica
- Top Gear
Four foods that I like
- Pasta
- Apple Pie
- Cheesecake
- Steak
Four websites I visit daily
Four things I want to do before I die
- Travel in China and Japan
- Write a good travel-blog
- See the earth, from space
- Find the mythic world of the left sock
