This time from [livejournal.com profile] shaysdays. If you want questions, comment, I'll ask you some, and then you answer them. Simple, eh?

1. You found out you're actually adopted. How do you feel? (Or, you found out you're NOT actually adopted- how do you feel?)
When I was little, sometimes I'd wish that I was adopted. Not because my parents aren't awesome, but because I hoped that I was secretly a princess sent to live with an ordinary family for safekeeping.
On the one hand, that would explain why my parents had me relatively late. On the other, it would be weird that they hadn't told me sooner. And, in my case, I look so much like my father that it would make me wonder if my biological mother was my aunt, or if Dad was my biological father but I had a different biological mother, which would just be weird. Notice I don't say "real" here, because my parents are my real parents, even without the DNA- they raised me, loved me, taught me important things, and made me who I am. I might be annoyed/confused/angry that they waited to tell me (or didn't, and I found out some other way), but you don't just stop loving your parents.

2. What kareoke song do you secretly wish you could belt out and why?
I wish I had the guts to do kareoke. It's not the being in front of people part, it's the singing in front of them. I have a lack of confindence about my singing voice that really doesn't have much basis- I'm not tone deaf or anything, I think someone once implied that I had a crappy singing voice and that stuck with me, even though I love to sing, and professional people have said it's a pretty voice. I'd probably go with "Mack the Knife", because I already know it, and I sing it with my Dad alot, but I might bust out some Aretha Franklin. This is a hard question!

3. What's the easiest way to break your heart?
I don't know if I've ever truly had my heart broken, but it's definitely been cracked a bit. I think there are two things: one, show me a child suffering, which is a more abstract heartbreak, and two, make me believe something's going to happen and then tell me it isn't. I have a tendancy to envision the future a certain way, and get attached to that vision, and then when I find out that can't be, it hurts (of course, I also have visions of the future that I know won't ever be, like me winning an Oscar or something).

4. Tell us your Presidential slogan.
Witty or actual? This is another hard one. Neither my first or last names rhyme with anything good (my last name rhymes with some bad things, and I don't plan on changing it if/when I get married). In all honesty, unless I had good PR guys it would be something like [livejournal.com profile] lotusbiosm 2036 or [livejournal.com profile] lotusbiosm for president (of course, I'd use my real name, since I don't think that LJ would be the most effective tool for running a Presidential campaign). My presidential platform is a much easier question.

5. If you could be a current famous figure for a day, but only a day, who would it be and what would you do?
I'm assuming that then the real person takes back over and can undo things (assuming they're things that can be undone), so choosing the President would be silly. If I get to pick the day too, JK Rowling the day she sends book 7 to the publisher so I can be the first to read it. I wish I could come up with something more world-saving, but all of those things could be undone (for example, if I was the Pope for a day and I declared that women could be priests and gays were A-OK with God, I'd do that, but what if he took it back the next day?).
