-what is your fondest memory as a kid?
Gosh, there's quite a few...
I guess the most prominent ones would be the day my sister was brought home from the hospital....when she, my brother, and I used to play games in the backyard and chase each other with the hose....the time at Ponderosa where Chad ate too much and barfed all over the parking lot...
*sob* Crap, now I'm getting all nostalgic and shit. Damn you, Mia! :P
-what was the worst accident you ever got into when you were a kid?
Again, quite a few...I was quite the tomboy, but I was also quite a KLUTZY tomboy too ;) I had a LOT of scraped chins and knees and noses growing up....my mom started to get worried that people were going to think she was smacking me around ;)
-what did you want to be when you grew up?
A farmer. Or a doctor.
-are you that now?
Nope.
-why/why not?
Well, I realized early on that I am NOT a morning person...so farming wouldn't work well at all for me ;) I held my doctor dream until high school, when I realized that I really, REALLY didn't want to spend 14 more of my years wasting away behind a desk, studying. I also get grossed out with a lot of blood/vomit/death.
what kind of kid were you? (bully/nerd/mischevious/daredevil/ quite type/etc...)
Well, until about third grade, I was the mischievious/daredevil type...a loudmouthed instigator that loved to piss off her teachers with her antics, yet still somehow pulled off straight A's. Then I switched schools...and suddenly found myself being the complete opposite--extremely quiet, withdrawn, and nerdy--until about the middle of high school. Some parents just don't realize how much yanking a kid out of a school they're comfortable with FUCKS up their social life. They have to start completely from scratch...and a lot of times, it never quite happens.
Don't worry, folks, it has a happy ending....I'm BAAAAACK!!! Mwha-hahahahaha.... :)
what would you tell the adult self if you were to go forward in time to the present as a kid?
Stay in college, I guess....I don't know! :)
what would your adult self tell the kid if you were to go back in time to visit yourself?
"Tell them to all go fuck themselves! DO IT! DOOOOOOO IT!!!!"
what was your least favorite vegetable?
Raw cauliflower....Blech. (Cooked is OK, though.)
your most favorite food?
RAVIOLI :)
your favorite toy?
Speak-And-Spell! (A computer addict even back then..... )
how did you discover about the birds and the bees?
I scrounged up a book from the library when I was about 8...I can still remember how my eyes felt as they bugged out :P
My sister got the talk from my dad...she asked him the Big Question and he replied, "Well sweetie, the daddy gives the Mommy a seed, and it grows into a baby," then she got the idea that the Mommy *swallowed* the seed like a pill... ;)
when did you stop believeing in the easter bunny/santa clause/tooth fairy/leprechans/the thing in the closet? (you do realize they aren't real, right? except the thing in the closet. it's still there. it just moved under your bed.)
Tooth fairy and Easter Bunny, about 8...leprechauns, never did....Santa....er, um....There's no Santa? ;)
And my closet has always had way too much shit wherever I've lived to have anything survive in there. I'm sure whatever has spawned under my bed can be handled :)
