The Questions I Asked My Friend and Her Wonderful Answers:

1. If you could be any superhero, what would you be?
I don’t think I would want to be a superhero.  Corny as it sounds, I think every person has the power to inspire other people just the way they are.  We don’t need superpowers or prodigious talents in order to make a difference.  American culture- especially movie culture, tends to promote the values that for a person to have worth, they have to be super smart, super athletic, super artistic, or have some other great talent, and if we don’t, then we don’t have worth.  But what God wants from us is so much deeper than that.  He put us on Earth for a reason, and we don’t need superpowers to accomplish what he wants from us.

2. What is something lots of people don’t necessarily know about you?
I (together with two other people whose names shall remain undisclosed) once created a list of a thousand nonsense words beginning with the letter ‘y’.

3. What is one of your pet peeves?
I can’t say I have many pet peeves.  But one thing that really bothers me is when kids make jokes and say words that target other groups of people (regardless of whether or not they’re in the room.)  For example, calling someone ‘gay’ or ‘retarded’ as if those are jokes.

4. What is something you don’t like to go without?
This is random, perhaps, but I don’t feel comfortable writing in any color but black ink.

5. What is your favorite sea creature?
There are numerous epic sea creatures out there, but my favorite would have to be the Octopus.  With it’s eight legs, three hearts, and nine brains, it’s impossible not be fascinated by them.  Plus, they are the most intelligent invertibraes on earth, and are known to be able to open childproof bottles and use human tools using only their tentacles.

6. What was my FIRST favorite color?
Gee, I should probably know this.  I know that you like pink, but the emphasis on ‘first’ tells me you haven’t always.  Maybe blue?  Or purple?

Great job! 😀 Loved your answers. My first favorite color was green. ❤ But I do love blue and purple so nice guesses. 😉
