Can you tell what people are like based on a bunch of obscure questions? I bet you can. More questions?! Give us a buzz or check out the main website.

  Tey Jan
Do you go by a nickname? Yes, it’s the same as Jan’s. We call each other "Bubba". Can’t really remember how or why because we both have different reasons. I have two. One is Bubba…that’s what Tey calls me. And the other is Aul, that’s what my family calls me. Think Raul minus the R. Story is that when my older brother couldn’t say my whole name Jan Earl, so he created Aul.
What are you most proud of in your life? Raising Lucas and Nathan. It’s a lot of work. My family. I’ve got such a great circle of people around me. They just make life so much more enjoyable and easier, too.
What is your favorite scent? Pear Glace lotion from Victoria Secret. Always been my favorite. My sons right after a bath.
What is your guilty pleasure? Brownies with Ice cream… Just had it last night. Definitely American Idol. Can’t stay away from it.
If you could be any animal, what would you be? Koala Bear because they are cute and cuddly, but I heard they sink…oh well. I’d be a Hippo. So cute yet super deadly!
If you could hire any actor to portray you, who would you choose? I think it would have to be the lady from Crouching Tiger (Michelle Yeoh), the other one is too skinny and pretty. Lucy Liu is out of my range as well :P. She’s simple yet okay looking and built like me….she’s just a little bit tall, but oh well. I’ll go Fred Savage for accuracy. Short with a curly fro…that’s me.
If you could choose your last meal, what would it be? Seafood Chow Fun…yummy!! Noodles are my all time favorite. Bone-in Rib Eye steak. Mmmmmmeat.
If you could listen to only one artist’s catalog for the rest of your life, who would it be? It would probably be Madonna… Big fan of her old songs. Michael Jackson. No Joke!
Favorite TV shows? My all time favorite is Full House. The Office, LOST, 24.
What’s your favorite movie to watch over and over again? this one is easy… "Dirty Dancing". I can watch that all day long. I even memorized all the dialogue when i was younger. I can watch Jerry Maguire a million times.
Favorite childhood memory? Going to the neighborhood park and doing summer activities and sports. Getting fatter with every yummy bowl of ice cream I ate. I was pretty chubby in my pre-teen days.
What is your pet peeve? Having a messy house…actually anything dirty. Ignorance and bad drivers.
What magazines do you like to read/browse through? Home Magazines… like to dream about having a really nice house with nice decor. Besides photo mags, REI mailers! And Backpacker, Esquire, and some fashiony ones for research.
Next place you want to vacation? Greece. Just looks beautiful Peru, Machu Picchu.
What sound drives you crazy? Koda barking up a storm in the middle of the night. The AIM chime thingy. Turn that OFF!
When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? A pediatriation. I love kids and i wanted to be a doctor, but couldn’t stand school so it didn’t work out. An oceanographer. I even remember my 5th grade project on whales. Now, I don’t even like ocean water. Go figure. But I do love nature.
What was the last concert you attended? I believe it was The Shins. The Roots at the Anaheim House of Blues.
If you could play any instrument what would it be? I would love to learn how to play the piano. Guitar. I tried when I was younger, but was not disciplined enough.
What store would you shop at with an unlimited shopping spree? I love Z Gallerie. I told you I have a love for home stuff. It’s a tough question because I like kitchen stuff too…i would have also picked William Sonoma. Room and Board. Love their furniture. I’ll deck out my house and office.
What is your favorite cereal? Honey Bunches of Oats. Crunch Berries.
What is your favorite daily ritual? Checking my personal accounts. I like keeping up to date on how I spend my money or how I can save up money for a rainy day. My mornings with Lucas and Nathan. I spend about a few hours with them every morning and I love it. Since I work a lot at night and at odd hours and days, they still get to see me because of our mornings..
What is one skill that you wish you had? Being a little bit more tech savvy so I can help Jan with that stuff. Sing like Stevie Wonder. Then I can go on American Idol!
Coke or Pepsi? Pepsi because I think Coke is too sweet, but other people say that Pepsi is too sweet. Pepsi. I am a stockholder.
