Drawing with my mom :) 4. What is your greatest fear? Bad things happening to the people I love. 5. Make up a word right now. reindor (i know it looks a lot like reindeer but it's the first thing that came to mind.) definition: incredible happiness due to the endless possibilities and adventures that await us in life. usage: i am so full of reindor lately.

1. What were you doing RIGHT before I interrupted your life with this video?? Watching TV and thinking like, ‘this is not worth watching’. 2. Do you have any pets? If not, what would you like? We have two tomcats: a red-and-white one, and a black one with a small white patch on his breast. I am very fond of cats, because I have known for a long time that cats like me. Sometimes, though, I would love to have a dog. I grew up with dogs, and dogs are great companions on long walks, at least as long as they’re young. But I don’t prefer dogs to cats, or vice versa, because cats and dogs are just different people. 3. What is a childhood memory you hold dear? One summer morning, when I was three or four, my uncle took me and my brothers out for a walk. We (the whole family) often stayed in his place in those years -- he was priest in an alpine village, a very beautiful place, which I still visit regularly. We walked along the river, then went up the mountain and came to the lake at the end of the valley. My uncle rented a boat, and the boat was gliding over the dark green and very clear water. Underneath, you could see fish in the water, their skins occasionally flashing in the sunlight, which I had never seen before. -- When you are a child, there are so many things you experience for the first time, and these are the things that last. 4. What is your greatest fear? Being utterly lonely. I don’t mind being on my own, and sometimes need it, but being lonely is something completely different. 5. Make up a word right now. kardetilnivanye (to be stressed on the penultimate syllable. I have no idea whatever this might mean. Actually, the word occurred to me in a dream, and when I woke up I wrote it down -- I recently found that piece of paper and remembered. I tried to google the word in various spellings, but it does not seem to be anywhere on the internet at least. My brain must have made this up.)

But I'm a fast computer geek, so I bought some time and decided to check up on you :) 2.Do you have any pets? If not, what would you like? I'm crazy about my two dogs, Pippa (King charles) and Stan (Imagine George Clooney as a pug - bingo.) My heart has a special place for Artemis, my moody cat. He loves when I study because he enjoys lying in my notepads. "Hey, stop being smart and pet me" 3. What is a childhood memory you hold dear? My dad is a vet in the most Irish place on earth - Connemara. I rarely get to go on call with him, but I'll never forget the day he took me to help feed a new-born lamb. It was worth the wind and rain. 4. What is your greatest fear? Losing Laura 5.
