Back With A Vengeance!

Dec 21, 2005 05:15

Were you a good kid?
Well, I was pretty spoiled and was considered a brat by most of my family, but I wasn't out burning fields down (like my brother) or getting into fights with other kids. I was a very social kid...had a lot of friends back in the day.

Were you quiet or noisy?
I was quiet, but outgoing, if that makes any sense

Did you get along with your parents?
Eh, for the most part. Much better than I do nowadays, anyway

Were you raised by both parents?
To be completely honest, I was raised more by my brother until he moved out when I was 6, then it was kinda a collective of my parents, me, and my friends

Were you closer to one or the other?
Nah, just my bro

Did you have pets?
Yeah

Who was your best friend?
Like I said, I was a social kid, I had a lot of "best" friends

How did you dress?
I used to wear much tighter-fitting jeans, and t-shirts, so mostly the same way

Material Stuff

What was your favourite toy?
God, probably whatever videogame system I had at the time

Did you play with gender appropriate toys?
I had action figures and things like that, but I wasn't into like, kids version of power tools or trucks or anything like that

Did you have a glow worm?
Don't think so

Did you have matchbox cars?
Hand-me-down ones from my brother...I used to fit as many as I could into the parking garage of the toyset they came with...it got ugly

Did you have barbies?
Sure didn't

Did you have stuffed animals?
Tons...that was what made up a good majority of my collection of toys, just because I loved animals so much

Did you have My Little Ponies?
Nope

Carebears?
Didn't

That creepy bear that read books?
Teddy Ruxbin...I sure did. But I'd take my parents tapes of stuff like Bonnie Raitt and James Taylor and listen to those instead most of the time

Dinosaurs?
Yeah, a few

Colorforms?
No

Ninja Turtles?
A huge part of my action figure collection (which I still have) was made up of those

Power Rangers?
One action figure, but I had the sword of the White Ranger for a while...it talked...kinda freaky

Batman?
LOVED him, lots of action figures

X-Men?
A few action figures, I had a videotape of the cartoon that I got from Pizza Hut that I watched religiously

Did you get any kids magazines?
I think I got Highlights for like...a year, but never did anything with them

Did you read comics?
Sadly, no...I wasn't like all my nerd friends

Games and stuff

Did you climb trees?
Probably

Pretend to go to war?
No

Act out movies and such?
Kindasorta

Play in a sandbox?
All the time in mine...I loved that thing

Make mudpies?
Pretty much every time I got in the sandbox

Have imaginary friends?
For like a day

Play with neighborhood kids?
Yeah, I had my lil' Rose Park crowd

Play with pets?
Bess...all the time

Did you play stupid board games when it rained?
No, I'd go play out in the rain and make a huge mess when I came in

Did you pretend to be a grownup?
A bit, here and there

Tough Stuff

Were you beaten up as a kid?
Not by anyone other than my brother who shoved me into a speaker that was as big as me in our front room. Bear in mind, my brother is 12 years older than me, so this was insanely immature

Did you have to deal with the death of anyone you knew?
Not really...a few family members

Did you have a near death experience?
Not at this point in life, no

Did you ever have to stay away from your parents for a long time?
I had to live with my Grandma and my Aunt for like 3 weeks while my parents were in Hawaii (bastards)

Were you one of those kids that no one liked?
No, everybody liked me

Did you get made fun of?
Not until later on, like when I got glasses, braces, and all my friends got "too cool" to hang out with me anymore

Bad stuff you did

Did you ever make messes on purpose?
I don't think I did, but I probably did

Steal anything?
Yeah, a toy from this stupid little store

Tell lies?
Yeah, but usually got caught...wasn't that good at it then

Run away?
Almost. I had everything packed up and was leaving, and my soon-to-be-sister-in-law is the one who talked me out of it

Beat someone up?
No

Break stuff?
I was throwing a blanket around in my mom's room, and it caught a glass statue of an angel she had...I had to buy her a new one

Throw tantrums?
God, all the time

Go on the roof?
Lol, I did that once, and my mom was having people over to our house, and one said "Who's that young man on your roof?" She went ballistic, it was great.

Bite people?
When I was like 2, I bit a little girl on the face because she made me mad (this is what they tell me, anyway...I don't recall it personally)

Throw stuff inside the house?
Until I got yelled at

Hit your friends?
Yeah, I was a little jerk

Cut in line?
Only with my friends

Getting in trouble

Did you get yelled at a lot?
Yeah, I did

Did you get sent to your room?
Yeah, but I didn't mind, all my toys were in there. Eventually it got evolved into "Go to your room and don't touch your toys!"

Get stuff taken away?
Here and there, but I knew where it was and would take it back myself

Sent to the corner?
Nope

Grounded?
Yeah, here and there

Did you get spanked?
WAY back, not after I was like 3 or 4

Did you ever get your mouth washed out?
Nope, but I never said anything I shouldn't've said

Any weird punishments?
Um...reading, at one point. I was punished to read, which wasn't really a punishment, because I liked reading

Family life

Did you have siblings?
My older half-brother Nathan. I have two older half-sisters from my dad's first marriage, but I've never met them

Did you have to share a room?
Nope...youngest in a 3 bedroom house

Did your parents work?
Yeah, that'd be why my brother is pretty much the one who raised me

Did you have babysitters?
Well, my bro, until he moved out when he was 18, and then I had one named Jaime, who had this game we'd play called "The Bazooka Broom" where we'd shoot things outside our front window with the broom (these things weren't there: stuff like "The Johnson's cat" when there weren't even any 'Johnson’s' in our neighborhood), and another one who was only like...4 years older than me named Dustin. One time before he came over to watch me, I'd been breaking toothpicks in our living room (don't ask me why, I don't remember) and I remember him getting one of the broken ones stuck in his hand. His brother had to come pull it out, I felt REALLY bad.

Did you like them?
Yeah, they were cool

Were you close with your cousins?
Yeah, I was the one who everybody liked, mostly cause I had all the cool toys and games

Fun places

Did you ever go to amusement parks?
Lagoon every summer, and we went to DisneyLand and DisneyWorld quite a bit

Disney?
Land multiple times, World, only twice

Did you go to McDonalds and get happymeals?
Okay, I still have pretty much every Happy Meal toy that they ever made between 1989 and 1995

DZ?
Uh...?

The zoo?
Didn't really go as a family function, but my school sponsored the kids going every year

What other places were fun when you were a kid?
I remember going to the Dinosaur park when I was like 7...that was pretty badass

What was the best thing ever?
Nintendo

The worst thing?
Um...homework

Did you get report cards?
Who didn't?

Did you do well on them?
Always (until middle school, when I stopped giving a shit)

Did you get notes home from school?
My mom was a very active parent in my classes, helping with projects and what not, so I mostly got letters from my teachers that had details of what they wanted her to help with next...kinda like a spy informant, I guess

Did you ever do anything creepy?
Hmm...in my 6th grade ELP (Extended Learning Program) class, we got to see a human brain and spinal cord, and I was the only one who requested to and did touch it

Did you do anything that seems inappropriate now?
Um...don't think so

Who was your favourite person you knew?
Hell I don't know

Your hero?
My gymnastics teacher, Shawn...I don't know why, either

What did you want to be when you grew up?
Veterinarian (until high school when I saw a dog get neutered and almost passed out)

Who was your favourite teacher?
Hmm...Elementary would've been Mr. Sessions (because for the life of me, I can't remember learning anything that year), Middle School was...Mr. O'Brien, because he was just all-around cool, and High School was of course Dan Campbell

Your least favourite?
Mrs. Smith, my 2nd grade teacher...she was mean. And of course Bonnie Whyte in high school, the wife of the dark prince

When you have kids

What will you do that your parents didn't?
When it comes to religion, I'll let my kids decide what they want to practice. Obviously teach them the basics that all religions share (don't steal, don't kill, etc.) but let them come to their own decisions of what to believe and practice. I think I'm going to be much more laid back than my parents were, and I don't mean "Do what you want." but I guess what I'm trying to say is, I won't make as big a deal out of things as my parents tend to do.

What won't you do that your parents did?
Isn't this just wording the previous question differently? Uh...I won't be a Nazi.

Will your kids be close with your parents?
Difficult to say. I don't see my parents as a major part of my future...my kids will recognize them and all, but probably not going to see them every week and what not

How you were brought up

Were you brought up in a religion?
I am a Mormon, in the sense that if a cow is born in a tree, then it's a bird

Were you taught to respect authority?
Yes, and I did and still do (to an extent)

Were you taught to be accepting of differences?
Kinda, but my parents are picky of the "differences" that are acceptable. When I told them I'm rather good friends with a post-op transsexual, they got a little frightened

In summary

Did you have a good childhood?
I'd say that, yes

Did your parents do a good job raising you?
My brother did, and my friends did, but my parents, I dunno

Did you turn out like you thought you would?
Not really, but I like me

Did you turn out like your parents thought you would?
GOD no, I'm the black sheep of the family
