Eighties, 83 to be exact.
2. Where were you born?
Belfast, Ireland
3. what country did you grow up in?
I added the word country to this question because I thought it sounded stupid otherwise, so my answer is, Ireland till I was 1, England till I was 5 and Australia till now... still growing up though!
4. Did you enjoy your childhood?
I adored half of it and hated the other half. Horses and riding were awesome, but school was hellish.
5. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
An Olympian in some discipline of horse-riding, a psychologist, in love.
6. What do you want to be now?
Happy, which I am, maybe move into novel editing eventually.
8. What was your first best friend's name?
Julie
9. Are they still your friend?
Yes, but we hardly see each other.

Camelot Rise Primary
Highvale Secondary College
RMIT Melbourne Campus... briefly.

Dad

I can't believe I have the same answer as Rory for this,
Dangerous by Michael Jackson
13. How old is a good age to have kids?
Whenever. It varies for people I suppose. I think 28 and onwards.
14. Are you scared of anything?
Dementia, anything to do with losing mental capability. Losing my loved ones.
15. What was your favorite class in high school?
Literature
16. Did you buy school lunch or bring your own?
I pretty much always bought it, or I'd just not eat it. Hooray eating disorder!
17. Broken any bones or had any freaky accidents as a kid?
Haven't broken any bones amazingly, did have a couple of really bad falls of a horse though.
18. Were you a mean kid?
Not really, I'd tease a little bit in primary but it didn't take long for me to realise how horrid it was to do so.
19. Favorite board game of all time?
I don't particularly like board games... possibly 'Trouble'.
20. Did you play house or pretend to be a super hero?
Neither, I had an imaginary horse.
21. Seriously, are you still just a kid at heart?
I was never very 'kiddy'. I'm by no means a 'grown up', but I'm not a kid either. I'm a Nat.
