3. On a scale of 1-10 (10 being saintly) how patient are you?
2
4. Have you ever waited for something in life only to be disappointed upon realization of the goal/object/etc.?
Nothing that I can particularly remember...I'm sure there are a few places we have been or restaurants/ foods etc that we have tried because people have raved about them but we just haven't thought they were very good...but nothing really sticks out in my mind
5. Are you a person who takes shortcuts?
Sure, sometimes....if it doesn't matter. but only when it doesn't matter.
6. Which line is hardest to wait in?
The one for the bathroom ;)
7. Did you wait to discover the gender of your unborn child until its birth?
Yes for the first four but we knew with #5. I asked for #3 and they said they couldn't tell us but that we might get a 'nice surprise' hinting that it was a girl after two boys.....
8. Are you more patient with children or the elderly?
Depends on the person/ situation. I don't think age makes you less/ more annoying....
9. Did you ever sneak a peek at a present?
Only by accident and it made me sad that I knew one of my gifts so it put me off ever wanting to sneak at a gift. I just 'came across' a gift as a child.....it wasn't hidden well.....and it ruined the surprise for me. I warm my own children of how it can really ruin the surprise if they know what it is!
