1. What are you afraid of?
Spiders, heights, my own blood. Generally things I don't want to see I subconsciously fear, and those are the first three that come to mind.

2. What's your favorite quote & why?
"There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible: the fear of failure." This is a line from Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist, a book that changed my life. After reading this book, I asked myself what I would do if I didn't fear failure. I found out that I wanted to teach history, and that's what I'm going to do.

3. How would your friends describe you to other people?
Well, I'd check my Favorite Quotes and About Me section on my Facebook, as that's a bunch of quotes that tell you who I am. Given that my friends call me both pessimistic yet charismatic, I suppose my friends as a whole would describe me as a walking mass of contradictions! ^_^

4. Do you have any pet peeves? What are they?
Yes, painfully peppy people. Come to think of it, I also phear painfully peppy people.

5. Do you still talk to your childhood best friend?
Yes, I still talk with a guy that I've known since kindergarten. I don't talk to him regularly due to the fact that he's in seminary school now but we always try to catch up whenever possible. The one time he stopped in for the summer we had a nice chat.

If you'd like me to interview you:

1. Leave me a casual comment of no particular significance, like a lyric to your current favorite song, or your favorite kind of sandwich, maybe your favorite game. Any remark, meaningless or not.
2. I will respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. Include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in your own post.
5. When others respond with a desultory comment, you will ask them five questions.
