I was tagged by a while ago, just now got around to filling it out.



Rules:

Screw the rules, I have green hair!



Here we go:

1. As a young child I used to page through the detailed colored diagrams in science and medical books.  I found it very interesting, much better than tv.

2. My desire to become a veterinarian began something like this: 'You mean there are doctors for animals?'

3. After completing the 'His Dark Materials' series, I wondered what kind of daemon I would have?  After a bit of introspection, I decided that his name would be Calernon, and he would have settled as a cheetah.  Though not for any cool reasons
that may immediately spring to mind - they aren't exactly at the top of the food chain after all.

4. I had never had a favorite movie before I saw Miyazaki's 'Spirited Away'.  And I haven't had a new one since.

5. Coincidentally, Hayao Miyazaki and I share the same birthday.

6. I am physically unable to shed tears: my tear ducts are patent, and my eyes do get wet when I am upset (or ill, or allergic, or slicing onions), but tears have never run down my face.  

7. I am much more extraverted in my own head than in real life.

8. I sculpt with aluminium foil.  I have been doing so since I was 7 years old.  My first sculptures were 'table ducks' that had no feet and swam atop the lunch table.

9. I can only recall 4 human-shaped sculptures that I have ever made (foil or otherwise)

10. Both my brother and I have central heterochromia, that is, we have ring of color around our pupil that is different from the rest of our iris color.  Ours are blue with a green ring.  The interesting thing is that our mom has solid brown eyes and our dad has solid blue.  Isn't color inheritance great?
