...who stole it from Dil3mma, who stole it from Sirinek......who stole it from n3m3sis42 who stole it from sylkweb who stole it from ${GOD} knows where...
And now this week's Friday Five: Goals and Childhood.
1. As a child, who was your favorite superhero/heroine? Why?
Does Peter Pan count? Talk about your sexual ambiguity--I grew up on the Mary Martin version wherein I knew that Peter Pan was supposed to be a boy but was really a girl. That made me ambitious.
2. What was one thing you always wanted as a child but never got?
To travel. My dad had two opportunities to go to exotic places - Venezuela and Brazil - but passed them up. I begged and begged. No dice. I didn't get out of Oregon/Washington until I was a senior in highschool and went to California.
3. What's the furthest from home you've been?
St. John, the U.S. Virgin Islands. Particularly so since "home" at that time was Alaska. I loved it there, but couldn't live on an island longterm.
4. What's one thing you've always wanted to learn but haven't yet?
A musical instrument. I was a much-deprived child, never forced to sit through a single piano lesson. I was working at the violin for a while, but my instructor stopped teaching adults and I never found another; now I don't have time.
5. What are your plans for the weekend?
Study tonight (just taking a break), going to an arboretum early tomorrow (to remind myself that spring will come), Imolc celebration and dinner with friends tomorrow evening; study, gaming, and a law school meeting on Sunday. Other than that, resting [snort].
