Getting to Know ...

 1. Where would you live if you could live anywhere in the world (fictional, real, or imaginary)?

Despite the smog and the rising population, I would probably stay in California because staying out of the United States for a long time is out of the question, and of the states, California has the best weather. 

 2. If you could be one age forever what would it be?

If I was in good health and was set financially, I would like to be 72 forever. Then, I wouldn’t have to worry about anything and I would be free to travel as much as I wanted.

3. If you could have been a child prodigy what would you have wanted to be skilled at?

I would have wanted to be a child prodigy at inventing useful tools, machines, etc. I was never artistically skilled, and inventing things would have given me a head start in life. 

4. If you were reincarnated as an animal what would it be?

I would definitely be a dog because I couldn’t imagine being anything else (except maybe a dolphin).

5. What would you name your autobiography?

“The Great Storyteller.” This is obvious because I tell such great stories.

6. What do you miss most about being a kid?

I miss painting in pre-school.

7. What was your favorite activity in gym class?

I really liked using the parachute thing when I was little. At some point, they decided we were too big for the parachute, and I liked playing capture the flag and soccer.

8. Would you rather be really really big or really really small?

I’d rather be really, really big because I wouldn’t like to be crushed by things bigger than me. 

9. What did you want to be when you were young? And now?

I wanted to be a dog when I was young. I still want to be a dog. See #4.

10. What song would you sing at karaoke night?

I probably would not sing at karaoke night because I never know the words to songs, but if I had to I would have to choose Bye, Bye, Bye.

11. Where would you not mind waiting? 

Chick-fil-A. I could wait all day for a grilled chicken sandwich and diet lemonade. 

12. What would you refuse to do for one million dollars?

“The drink” at Fecathalon. It is loaded with all types of pickle juice, meat, siracha, leftover dinner from a few days ago, etc.

13. How do you like to relax?

I like to sleep. 

14. If you could dis-invent one thing, what would it be?

The hamburger because chicken sandwiches are so much better.

15. What always makes you a more confident person?

My experiences at Chick-fil-A made me a more confident person.

16. What language would you like to master?

Spanish is by far the most useful language in California, so I would like to master that. 

17. What’s the #1 most played song on your iPod?

I have no idea and I haven’t listened to my iPod consistently since 8th grade, so probably “Hard to Concentrate” or “How to Save a Life.”

18. If you could paint a picture of any scenery you’ve seen before, what would you paint?

I like sunsets, so I’d probably paint a sunset.

19. If you had to work on only one project for the next year, what would it be?

I would build an airplane or something functional because it would be a lot of fun to use after I finished. 

20. If you had to change your first name, what would you change it to?

I don’t think I would change my name because it required too much effort. 

21. What story does your family always tell about you?

They always tell everyone that I only ate white foods when I was a kid and one time I went to a Japanese restaurant and only got rice and vanilla ice cream.

22. Where’s Waldo?

He is in his book. Alternatively, he was at the USC football game I went to the other day. I definitely saw him there.
