Friday Five at Two

|

Why am I still up? I'm not sure, but since I am, here is a Friday Five...

1. As a child, who was your favorite superhero/heroine? Why?
Superman... because he was the Man of Steel. Christopher Reeve had just starred in his first Superman movie and I had a pop-up book where when you pulled the tab, Clark Kent would slide into the phone booth and Superman would slide out almost instantly. I bet I still have that book packed away somewhere around here.

2. What was one thing you always wanted as a child but never got?
A Yamaha synthesizer. I thought it was a necessity even though my parents had invested an enormous amount of money in a piano. They knew better and told me that I could get one when I moved out on my own. They would also mention something about learning the value of money, but I don't think I was paying much attention by that point.

3. What's the furthest from home you've been?
Hong Kong

4. What's one thing you've always wanted to learn but haven't yet?
I've always wanted to learn what women want, but if that isn't possible, then I've always wanted to learn guitar.

5. What are your plans for the weekend?
Other than looking for an old Superman pop-up book and scrounging around for money to buy a synthesizer, I plan on celebrating Chinese New Year.
