Confessions of a Fugitive Mind

Five on Friday for July 29, 2005
1. Do you believe in magic? Why or why not? Not so much. I think magic is just the easiest way to explain the unexplainable.
2. Have you ever wished for magical powers? If so, what powers did/do you wish to have? Sure. I think it would be neat to do my chores with a wave of the wand or finish a sweater without working up blisters. But being able to apparate would be the cat's meow (and would certainly make my commute a cinch).
3. If you could make a love potion, who would you want (or would have wanted, in your past) to use it on? If I had access to love potion when I was of a Hogwart's age, I totally would've used it on Jimmy, one of the only boys in my seventh grade class who was taller than me. His locker was right next to mine, and he was so painfully shy at times that I felt shy around him. A little love potion probably would've helped that. And dating the only nice boy who was bigger than me would've made high school a little easier. Nice to know that I eventually end up with one, even without love potion.
4. If you could Apparate (that is, instantly appear some place else), where would you like to go, right now? In front of a slot machine at Foxwoods that was about to hit big. Or maybe sunning myself on a beach in the pacific northwest.
5. If you had the power to go back in time and change your past, what would you change? Why? I would be tempted to change a lot of things, like my decision to come to WPI, staying in a dead-end relationship because it felt safer than putting myself on the market, choosing to do my projects by myself, moving into that apartment on John Street, and buying that visor handheld back in 1999. But I'm rather fond of the way things have turned out and who I've become.
