Me


I'm working on a little project at work that has taken off from the American Express ads, "My Life.  My AmEx."  Basically it's a survey of really dynamic celebrity-type individuals, i.e. Diane von Furstenberg (amazing!), Ellen, Scorsese, etc.  But the questions are a bit more open-ended and allow for some creativity.  So I'm taking the liberty of doing my own AmEx ad.  

my name...Katie Waterfall Rees

childhood memory...riding banana-seat bikes, playing dress-up and jumping on the trampoline with my dad

fondest memory...8.20.2005

soundtrack...loud 

retreat...there's no place like home

wildest dream...world peace, really

proudest moment...when I didn't have to pick out the wheat bread

biggest challenge...overcoming myself

alarm clock...the worst invention ever

perfect day...sunshine, long walk, dave, dog, dinner

first job...watering the trees with my sister megan

indulgence...candy and ugg boots

last purchase...a $5 shirt from the gap

favorite movie...any movie where we buy greasy, hot, movie-theater popcorn (usually with my mom)

inspiration...those who live what they know

my life...will soon change with the introduction of a boy

my card...has my picture on it and gets me into costco
