1. What were you afraid of as a child?
abandonment. failure. also grass and horses the same things i'm still afraid of. people, phones.
2. When have you been most courageous?
i can't think of a particular moment.. the way i see it, i'm always me, so i doubt i'd notice an abundance of courage at any particular time.
3. What sound most disturbs you?
nails on a chalkboard.. dad leaving his talk radio blaring 24/7 mundane noises really. the narration in kyu's wrestling games. X.x i really hate that.
4. What is the greatest amount of physical pain you’ve been in?
a particularly horrible month sophomore year. not a good time for me.. it was most of november, actually. a few people know what happened then and can understand how hard it was for me.
5. What’s your biggest fear for your children?
that they'll be as stubborn as me and have to go through even half the hardships i have rather than learning form my mistakes.
6. What is the hardest physical challenge you’ve achieved?
getting through the events in question 4. wearing heels for a whole day at a convention is a distant second.
7. Which do you prefer: Mountains or oceans/big water?
i LOVE the water. i'm not around it often, but being near it fills me with a peace i've never known elsewhere.
8. What is the one thing you do for yourself that helps you keep everything together?
i let myself fall apart, then i pick up the pieces. i've never been able to cope any other way *shrug*
9. Ever had a close relative or friend with cancer?
some grandparents, but i hardly remember them, so no one close really.
10. What are the things your friends count on you for?
i don't know as i've never had to count on myself, but i'd like to think i'm good at emotional support i listen to problems and do what i can to help
11. What is the best part of being in a committed relationship?
the snuggles
12. What is the hardest part of being in a committed relationship?
the same thing that's hard about any relationship: misunderstanding. the downside to no two people being exactly alike is that no two people think exactly the same. that unfortunately means there are arguments sometimes when things get out of control.
13. Summer or Winter?
whichever i'm in. i've always loved summer, but i tend to forget how much i love it whenever another season comes around. it's kinda a love the one you're with thing xD
14. Have you ever been in a school-yard fight?
a few. i can usually walk away from a fight, but there have been cases where i didnt. that pride thing again. sensing a pattern yet?
15. Why blog?
it's a way to express myself without feeling like i'm forcing my feelings on other people.
16. Did you learn about sex, and/or sex safety from your parents?
not that i recall. i just knew things. nothing was really mystery about it to me. it kinda embarrassed mom to talk about it, and i don't remember any of my sisters giving me "the talk", i just knew. i didn't know it was supposed to be something you needed to be told.
17. How do you plan to talk to your kids about sex and/or sex safety?
hmm. i guess that'll depend on it they need to be talked to about it.
18. What are you most thankful for this year?
the wonderful people in my life. they make it that much easier to try to be happy.
