8 facts about me!

I got this off Angelle Trieste's blog. It looked fun, so I decided to play along.

So here are the rules:

A. Each player lists 8 facts/habits about themselves.

B. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning before those facts/habits are listed.

C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 8 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

So here are the eight facts about me.

1. The first time I ever flew anywhere, I flew to Germany.
   
2. I got my first job, at 15 years of age. I worked at an independent Pharmacy. I got the job then told my parents.
   
3. I sat on what was left of the Berlin Wall during the summer of 1990. I have chucks of the Wall, which I chipped myself. They are stored away in a safe place.
   
4. I have been hot air ballooning.
   
5. I really love NYC. I love it for all the reasons most people hate it. It has a special energy. That said - I doubt I could live there long term.
   
6. I would like to live on an island. The solitude appeals to me.
   
7. I was 14, the first time I drove a car. It was with my grandfather. I later had trouble passing my drivers test and mastering a stick - but now I do just fine thank you!
   
8. I believe that if we all tried to love just a little bit more - the world would be a better place:)
