Four Fings

I've been tagged for a meme! Now who shall I pass this on to? *rubs hands gleefully before recoiling in horror at the excess of sebum on her fingertips*!

Ok, here goes: ummm....

4 Jobs that have left me demented or influenced:

1. Teaching/caring for kids: Gotta love the precocious brats, but nothing makes you wish you were in India as much as an urge to slap them and make them a bit more respectful! It made me realise that sometimes i prefer a little method to madness!

2. Research assistant: Videotaping little kids and then playing the tape in slow motion to count their steps/movements to assess their locomotive skills? A more boring version of Maths to train you to be a stickler for precision and accuracy.

3. Office Assistant: Introduced me to the joys of the internet in the workplace, and a great way to get non-work-related work done! And the ability I possess to stay away from politics.

4. Marketing Executive: the love for the internet only grows, and beautiful things appear commonplace...

4 Movies I could recommend to anyone:
Masoom (Bollywood)
Windhorse (Tibet)
Children of Heaven (Iran)
