IS THE GLASS HALF EMPTY OR HALF FULL? perpetually full for some. I've never been some
PICK A SONG THAT DESCRIBES YOURSELF OR THAT YOU CAN RELATE TO: It seems that the CCM industry writes songs aimed in my direction. to name one, or even two, would be rediculous

RAN AWAY FROM HOME: Seems like that's all I've ever done in life
CHEATED ON A TEST: No, I was a good student. surprising, isn't it?

HAD A MEDICAL EMERGENCY: Yes, when I was 12, and home on summer furlough, Brynn and I took some friends up to the summit of Haleakala. a servant took care of Brynn, so I didn't have to worry about her...and I took off for the afternoon with the visiting boy my age. I wound up sliding off the trail, and landed on an outcroping of rocks some 15 feet below...was very bruised, but had a nasty gash in my right shin just below my knee. I thought I was going to die, but Keloki eventually found us and carried me back to the picnic site. (I wouldn't let the other boy leave me.)
I still have the scar.

CRIED? The evening Sweet and I left Ms. patterson and Dr. Duvall in sweet's house. After going to the Day Dream, and the captain refused to take me anywhere, I found a suite on a steamship headed for the carribean. Sweet kept to himself on another part of the ship, and I was left alone in my misery. waiting for the ship to pull out that morning was like torture...I really should have that of something like that for Locke if I really wanted to hurt him. Anyway, I sat there. Looking down at my hands, my worthless hands that have done nothing good on this earth, and thinking of everything I've lost...before I knew It I was sobbing. literally. And it was a moment I would have given anything to have not been alone, and yet I would have died if i'd been with another person. In fact, I really would have died, I think.

WHATS ON THE WALLS IN YOUR ROOM? Well, I suppose since I don't have a room I can't tell you. but when I was a child, I always had an oil painting of the sea, and a beautiful clipper ship called the "Day Dream" that hung on my bedroom wall at home. My mother hated it though, and she rarely came into my room because of it.
