Friday Five 10/12
1. What did you want to be when you grew up?
Let's see.... model, an archaeologist, a private detective, a police officer, a writer, an artist, a marine biologist, a movie director and a chimneysweep.
2. Did you follow through? If not, what happened?
I tried for movie director, but could not afford it. I also tried to follow the archaeology thing through, I studied it for one semester and found that it wasn't really for me.
3. Is your life turning out the way you thought it would when you were a kid?If not, is it better or worse?
No it's not turning out like that at all, I had thought I'd be studying, which I do, but I never thought I would be in the same situation like at school, learning stuff you do not want to hear one single thing about.
I did not expect to hang out at university until my thirties either, but that may just be the case.
4. Paradoxes aside, if you could time-travel back to when you were 10 years old, what would you tell your 10-year-old self?
Put the goddamn homework and books down and do something you enjoy for God's sake! I'd tell my younger self to never ever waste her childhood studying like she was obsessed. It's not worth it. Oh, and she should loosen up and swear at and hit people who piss her off and go to the high school in ******* right away.
5. Do you think the child you were, would like the adult you've become?
No. No, probably not. I would definitely understand the way I turned out though, it wouldn't be like meeting a stranger.
