1. Do you feel there is a defining point in your past, a moment when you realized something that changed things, or where things actually did change, and you came out different than before this moment?

Probably the biggest moment in regard to this question would be when I nearly died a few years back. I don't know how to explain it except to say that I knew I had to make drastic changes in my life if I planned on going beyond that moment. I cannot recall feeling so many emotions at once.

2. What do you feel is the most important aspect of a person? That is; what do you feel is the most important attribute for someone to become a good friend, coworker or partner?

I have friends from all walks of life, as you know. Each person has a unique part to them, but probably the biggest thing I look for is someone who is considerate to others, who has kindness inside of them that simply radiates within my view. I like people to be extremely honest and forthright, yet have some cooth and regard for other people as well.

As for co-workers, that's a different subject all together. I separate personal life from work life as much as possible, so when I am looking at a new trainee, I like to see a self-motivated person who is willing to step up to whatever needs done. Strong work ethic is a big part of getting along well with my coworkers.

And the lover part? I have some ideas, but mostly they are the same as friendships; add in some chemistry and intimacy beyond the flesh, well, that is what I hope for.

3. You often have very vivid dreams; do you feel that means something about you or your life? Specifically, do you think something is trying to tell you something?

Sometimes I do, yes. Sometimes I know it is just my subconscious working inner demons out. Other times, I have seen the results of a dream, and it sometimes bothers me greatly that I couldn't have done something to stop an occurance. I don't know how much other people believe me, and really don't care either. I just know what I have seen/ experienced, and go by that.

4. Someone approaches you with the offer of your dreams. What is the offer, and under what conditions will you accept it?

A full-fledged ticket to school, including all music courses, with the open ability to visit my family and friends anytime I wanted.

5. What do you feel you're the most proud about in your life, your greatest accomplishment, feature, skill or the like?

to have survived this long and been blessed with the best family and friends I could have imagined!
