Writers Dreaming

                3. The question asks whether or not talking about bad dreams or thoughts gives them too much power.  In my opinion I think not talking about them gives them power, because if you’re not going to talk about it that means it has some kind of hold or power over you.  I think that about things that you are struggling with, but if it is something like gossip, that’s a different story.  I think if it is a thing that will hurt someone else it should not be talked about, but if it is about something hurting you then you need to talk about it.

                 9. “What things occupy your small mind in a good and bad way?”  My answer to the first part of the question is probably music occupies my small mind in a good way.  While music is something I am serious about, I doubt I am going to make a career out of it so it is a nice thing to use to pass the time.  A bad thing that occupies my small brain is probably laziness or boredom, because I do not accomplish anything when I get that way.  Overall, I have a lot of things that occupy my small mind.

                6.  The question asks are you comfortable speaking in different languages and if you could learn a few what would they be and why.  I am pretty comfortable speaking in a different language, I just do not know it very well.  I took two Spanish classes and I cannot remember much from either.  If I could speak any language It would be either Greek or Hebrew, because both of those languages are associated with the bible and it would be cool to read the bible the way it was meant to be read.  The question also asks if I think just speaking English is fine since we live in America.  I think that it is a good thing to learn about other cultures but I do not think people who do not care about learning other languages are in the wrong.

                5. “Could you go five years without talking?”  I probably could not go five years without talking because I would feel like I would start to annoy myself and other people.  I am a relatively quiet person, depending on who I am around, so if I was around people I did not know for a few days, I probably would not say much at all.  I think an advantage to listening more is you see where people are coming from better, where as if your only waiting to talk you do not know if you will offend them or not.  On the other hand there is a time to speak up, but that does not mean it is all the time.

                7. The question asks if you’re the kind of person who can remember everything or nothing.  I think I am the type of person who remembers most things from the past.  Things I have trouble remembering are mostly short term things.  For example I can remember freshman and sophomore year pretty well, but I have trouble remembering junior year because it feels like I am still in it.
