My Earliest Memory

Day 17: Describe your earliest memory.

My earliest memory takes place when I was probably about 4 or 5. I remember wearing a little dress and spinning around in our back yard next to my mom while she weeded our garden. Yes I know it's exactly vivid or detailed but it is my earliest memory and for being such an old memory i think it's a pretty good one.

Hope you enjoyed!

My Favorite Movie

Day 16: What is your favorite movie and why?

My favorite movie is probably Independence Day. I remember watching it with my dad when I was probably 8 or 9 and I loved it. Now that I'm older I still watch it and I still think it's a great movie. It was the first real sci-fi movie that my dad and I ever watched together. Before that I would sometimes watch Star Trek with him on Sunday afternoons but now we watch sci-fi movies together all the time. I guess part of the reason why I love the movie so much is because it makes me think of my dad.

Hope you enjoyed!

Dinner with a Historical Figure.

Day 15: If you could have dinner with anyone in history, who would it be and what would you eat?

I would have dinner with Leonardo Da Vinci. Da Vinci was an important astronomer, inventor, scientist, and artist. Pretty much everything that I have ever wanted to be in my life Da Vinci was and he was awesome. I would love to sit down and just talk with him about his ideas and his opinions on things. I think that we would eat Italian food. I love Italian food also Da Vinci was Italian so he would like it too.

I hope you enjoyed!

What Super Power Do I want?

Day 14: If you could have one superpower what would it be and what would you do with it first?

I think that I would have to say Intuitive Aptitude, which is basically being super, super smart. Ok so it's not the most flashy of all super powers but think about it, it's easy to hide and it's useful in every situation. The first thing that I would do with it is solve the population problem by relocation. I would figure out a way to colonize the moon and Mars and then relocate people there. Then I could work on curing diseases like HIV/AIDS, cancer, and diabetes. Then I might trying solving the hunger problem. Basically I would try to solve all the worlds most pressing problems with my super smarts. Then I could just do something useless, like invent a mini contained solar system, that would be pretty cool.

Three Childhood Memories

Day 13: Describe three significant memories from your childhood.

1) Breaking my face in Cape Cod. This is a memory that really sticks out with me mostly because I still have the scar from that. When I was little it was  Fourth of July and I came running up the steps of my grandparents home in Cape Cod. I slipped, fell off the step, and ended up gouging my face with a seashell. I was crying so I ran to my dad I remember pulling my face away from his shirt and seeing his entire shirt covered in my blood it was pretty scary. I cut actually wasn't that bad but it was a miracle that the seashell didn't catch my eye. To this day I have the scar next to my left eye.

2) Fighting with my brother. This is kind of a general one but I remember fighting with my brother all the time. My brother is nine years older than me and was probably pretty annoyed with me. I would always try to hang out with him and his friends, but he would always scare me and fight with me. I always thought that I hated my brother but really I love my brother he's the greatest.

3) Going to the Arizona. Ok so this wasn't that long ago but it is still a memory that I cherish. I took this trip with mom, dad, Greg, and his girlfriend at the time (they are married now) Heather. I loved this trip Arizona is just so beautiful. Also I think this was the first family vacation that we took with Heather, which was fun, she is awesome.

Something I Wish I Was Great At

Day 12: What is the thing you most wish you were great at?

I wish that I was a great writer. I wish that when I wrote pieces I could make people feel things, see things, and ultimately find themselves moved by the writing. I'm not exactly a captivating writer. I have a vivid imagination but I just can't seem to get all of my ideas and thoughts down on paper. I love writing but I rarely ever show any of my writings to anyone. Usually when I am done writing a piece I am very proud of the work that I have done but then I read my writing piece and I can't help but see how childish and horribly written the piece is. So I wish that I was great at writing.

Hope you enjoyed!

My Animal

Day 11: If you were an animal what would you be and why?

I would be a horse because horses are social creatures they love to be in herds but they also like to spend some time alone as well. Also horses are extremely intelligent and can often read peoples emotions fairly accurately. They are super intelligent creatures, plus I think it would be amazing to just be free like a wild horse just to run and be free from the social pressures of our world today. So that is why I would be a horse.
