1 - Despite how much I like chocolate, I've always loved vanilla so much more.
2 - I always used to love hiding in over-sized coats as a little girl. I would pull the hood up over my head. I would surround my entire body as much as possible. It's why I always loved cold weather. I could wear the heavy coats. It feels like a cape or a cloak. Even right now, I have the biggest coat on my shoulders (mostly for warmth). But back then, I'd love to seal it all up and go breathing like Darth Vader or an astronaut.
3 - I always feel most comfortable in school and in friendships with friend groups of three. In such groups, there will invariably be a boisterous friend in the trio and a shy one. This followed through all of my schooling. I always tend feel most comfortably writing friend combinations in threes. Less than that and it feels lonely. Any more than that and it feels crowded.
4 - I will always try to name a computer "Fred". I do that because I had a betta fish "Fred", who was named for a hamster who I was allowed to take home in fourth grade...after the hamster I had waited almost the entire school year in to take home...had died moments before he was supposed to go home with me. I had before named a stuffed bunny "Fred", after a mountain I had drawn as a kid with an entire story around it. My "boy-friend" in kindergarden was named "Fred" (we played not 'house' but "re-enact 'Back to the Future' with stuffed animals").
5 - My favorite color is purple (duh) but I like the combination of blue, silver, and black for clothes (with some mix-ins but almost always one or two of those three present).
6 - I have a collection of *estimates* between over seven-hundred to near a thousand books (not counting the occasional magazines, journals, and short-story publications I like to keep). I try to keep them alphabetized when on shelves.
