What do you find physically attractive in a man? In a woman?

During a typical week, what sort of physical activities do you enjoy?

Have you ever been to a bar or club? Did you enjoy yourself?

 

[mina]

What do you find physically attractive in a man? In a woman? man- nice smiling eyes, a nice smile, in shape, has thick head hair, strong hands, tall, i like dark hair better than blond or red

woman- long hair, in shape

During a typical week, what sort of physical activities do you enjoy? running, pilates or yoga, i want to play tennis regularly but i don't know anyone who plays

Have you ever been to a bar or club? Did you enjoy yourself? I've been to a bar in a resturant but not to drink. I'm rather innocent in that respect. I've never been to a club. or a real club, there is a "club" in my hometown that hosts bands and i've been a couple of times to see a local band play, but it's a far cry from a night club.

How do you feel about Ph. 3:14: I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.?

 

[mina]

I feel that it means that we need to keep going, keep trying to live like Christ, keep sharing His love, even when things get really hard. The things on this earth are just temporary. Our calling is to live for things that will impact the Kingdom of God. That is our prize that we need to focus on. When God wins; we win.

Do you listen to sermons online? By whom and what site?

 

[mina]

no

How often do you find yourself laughing?

How often do you lose your temper?

 

[mina]

I laugh at most anything. I try to find the humour in things. A lot of times i laugh inside my head, b/c it would be totally inappropriate to laugh out loud

I really don't have a temper; much of one anyways. I'm very easy going. But I can get very mad or passionate about certian things. I guess I lose my temper maybe once a month, once every two months if i'm in a really good mood, lol.

How do you feel about the changes on CF...I mean on ForU? ;X

Why did you choose your current church?

 

[mina]

hmm I think the name is stupid. I think lots of people are over reacting and acting ugly. I haven't even seen any non-christians on the single's part and i don't go to the arguing part so i haven't seen much difference other than members being ugly to one another and the stupid name. I really like the banners people have submitted though.


I arrived at my church through a plethoria of reasons. My b/f at the time challenged me to step outside of my comfort zone. I was going to a very small church, so I decided to find a huge church and see what that experience was like. Also I wanted to serve in AWANAS and that was the only church in the area that had AWANAS. Plus i was curious to see what a structured church was like with Sunday school and those things.

Oh.....your birthday's coming up. Any idea what you're gonna ask for yet??

If you get some free time (55 minutes), could you listen to this link and let me know what you think?

I was really impressed. I've heard this particular church seeks to create disciples out of its members.

 

[mina]

yeah i'm getting old.

I don't really want anything material. Except maybe a better camera, mine stinks.
I'll listen to it this weekend....

Well you're not old yet.

If you are going to listen to that sermon, you'll need to do so before Sunday morning. heheh

Would you ever accept a date with a guy who just walks up to you and asks you out without you two knowing each other at all?

Any extraordinary kids in your class this year? When you decided to become a teacher, did you originally pick a grade preference -- which? Did you do student teaching before you graduated? What was your impression of teaching from that?

 

[mina]

Would you ever accept a date with a guy who just walks up to you and asks you out without you two knowing each other at all? I don't know. It's never happened to me. it depends on why he's asking me out and where he's asking me to.

Any extraordinary kids in your class this year? They are all extraordinary I have a child that is really really good at drawing. I also have the cutest little hispanic boy with cubby cheeks. He is my favorite!

When you decided to become a teacher, did you originally pick a grade preference -- which?
I had originally wanted to teach 4th grade.

Did you do student teaching before you graduated?
yes, it was required
What was your impression of teaching from that?
It was hard work but there were a lot less requirements when i was student teaching. I did my ST in 3rd grade and instead of being the "test is all powerful you must bow to the test" grade, it was so much fun! 3rd grade was one of the best grades to teach; the kids were able to do lots of things and you could really do some neat things with them, but now 3rd is the testing grade and there's no time for neat and fun- it's all abouto getting them ready for the test that decides all. My cooperating teacher was a mean and hateful woman and she was extremely petty and pushy. I got to see how not to be a teacher from her.

Have you spent significant time studying the era of the books of the NT?

What do you consider the best years of your life?

 

[mina]

Have you spent significant time studying the era of the books of the NT? the time period? Well i went to a Bible college so I did study what was happening in the world during the time it was written. I probably don't remember half of it.

What do you consider the best years of your life?
2003 or when i was growing up- i had a wonderful childhood.

Has anyone ever told you that you changed their life? If so, how?

 

[mina]

my ex boyfriend told me that when he was breaking up with me. I have no idea how i changed his live, it must not have been for the better.

What is your favorite place you have ever traveled to and why?

 

[mina]

I love Savannah and all the Georgia islands. I think those places are beautiful and wild in their own way.
