\nQuestions by <\/p>\n


\n1. What, in your opinion, is the biggest\/best\/most beautifulest thing that has ever happened to you? (keeping in mind that I am not a typical woman, and don’t automatically expect it to involve me)<\/b><\/p>\n

I can’t narrow it down to one. It’s a series of moments, where the fog in my mind clears, and I am alert and fully myself. Everything around me is so detailed and beautiful, and these moments last the most in my mind. You’ve seen this. ;)<\/p>\n

2. What is third most common trait among your friends? Why do you think that trait is so common? (third because the first two are even easy for me to identify)<\/b><\/p>\n

Dissatisfaction with the way things are, whether quiet or obvious. I think that this is common because I want to change things, I’m charismatic and motivating, and people that seriously want change will gravitate toward me.<\/p>\n

3. What was your biggest accomplishment in high school?<\/b><\/p>\n

Well, 9th grade (Freshman year) was technically in Junior High, so I can’t count earning Eagle Scout. It would be a close tie between not becoming a homicidal maniac and going to Japan.<\/p>\n

4. When do you think, minus the laura insident, was the moment (or series of moments) in which your life changed the most?<\/b><\/p>\n

When I came home once, while working at Voyager.net, and had a pleasant conversation with my parents without feeling like I owed them an explination about my homework. I felt SO grown-up…<\/p>\n

5. Why do you get stuck in the “this is how it is, and how it always will be” mode of operation? (excepting your parents, you can’t use that)<\/b><\/p>\n

I am violently opposed to outside change. No one has the right to change me without my permission. This comes from my sure sense of who I am, what I am, how I am, etc. There’s a core in me that feels timeless and unchangeable. ‘This is how it is’ stems from a combination of ‘This is how I am’ and bullshitting on subjects that I know a little about but which I can hypothesize fairly easily. ‘and how it always will be’ is something I try very hard not to do, because everything changes, whether I want it to or not. Welcome to the land of paradox. I will change, and yet I know I will endure, unchanged.
