1. I'm actually the youngest of two. My elder sister, Shanti, died when I was two years old.
2. I can honestly say I've never had a cavity before, and from what I understand of the drilling and filling process, I'm extremely grateful for this.
3. I've warred back and forth between Hinduism and Atheism for a great many years now, but regardless of which path I've chosen to follow at any given time, I've always respected the dietary ideals of Hinduism, and as such, am a vegetarian.
4. I never had any real interest in raising children until Matt and I took on the responsibility of looking after Molly. After that, I was more or less certain I wanted children of my own some day. After all that's happened, though, I'm not entirely sure I still do, or rather if I would be a fit parent if I did.
5. The modified formula fixed what was wrong with me physically; it did nothing to quell the violence in my heart, however. It's a daily struggle to avoid doing something I'd regret when incensed, and my temper is so very short these days. I've taken up meditation and amateur boxing in an effort to give outlet to my anger, but it's not always enough.
6. As glad as I am to be home, a part of me misses the States and being in the midst of everything.
7. I went to university in England and, barring the insanity of the temperatures come the winter, I miss it, too. Day trips to London are a particularly fond memory.
8. I've been in love twice -- once in university, twice in my adult life. All three times, it's never truly worked out, though all for different reasons.
9. As a rule, I'm generally a bad judge of character. People who I feel I can trust upon first meeting tend to be the people who betray that trust the most thoroughly; people that I write off immediately tend to be the people I can rely on implicitly. I suppose I should learn to stop following gut instinct as far as first impressions are concerned, or at very least learn to remind myself that said impressions are very often wrong.
