friday five

1. as a child, who was your favorite superhero/heroine? why?
donald duck as fantomas. i felt sad for him, because daisy never realised his inner greatness. the usual superhero dilemma.

2. what was one thing you always wanted as a child but never got?
a pony.

3. what's the furthest from home you've been?
depends on the definition. christchurch, new zealand was about 18.700 km from the place i grew up. however, one might argue that home is where the heart is, which might mean that i am currently away from "home", a good 16.389km (now that he has moved to the coast, we're 20km closer).

4. what's one thing you've always wanted to learn but haven't yet?
playing the piano.

5. what are your plans for the weekend?
tonight, i will write some much needed, email, cook a yummy curry, watch dirty dancing on the telly. tomorrow & sunday, i will call evan early in the morning, practise yoga, do some weekend shopping, work out at the gym, talk to tina, watch german popidol, study, practise more yoga, work out more at the gym, go for a walk in the snow, continue reading "life of pi".
