5. Do you have a lucky charm?

1. Does last night's Rutgers game count? Probably not, so I'd say the time I went sledding down this huge hill/mini mountain, caught about 50 feet of air off this huge rock and fractured my tailbone landing on another rather pointy rock. It wasn't fun then, but it's a great story to tell and I'm glad I caught that much air
2. Either a cat or Predator
3. Question things more, listen to people and pick up a guitar at a younger age.
4. Woo...tough one. I'd have to say my ability to communicate. Without that I'd be super lost.
5. I tend to keep my very first guitar pick I ever snapped in half and also the very first poker chip I won at a casino. Not sure they're lucky charms as much as they are tokens of memories.

5. Do you have a lucky charm?

1. When I was about 2 years old, I got lost at the beach. I was with my family and friends, and it was the late afternoon. And I decided to follow the sun. How cheesy epic power metal is that?rock:
2. A Highlander
3. I would change whatever it was in my life that made me lose so much self confidence, I'd make myself actually make a habit of sitting and practicing with the stuff my many guitar teachers gave me, and I'd make myself have been alot more social in High School.
4. Either how to play guitar or that cursed day whose date shan't be mentioned. That is a day that I cannot allow myself to forget.
5. Not until recently. I actually have 3 pieces of jewlery that I wear all the time now. A cool Celtic pendant I found one day sitting on the ground (I thought for a while that I was destined to find it, and it had magic powers or something. ), a ring that I got from my great-grandfather's jewelery box, and also a bracelet that I wear everyday made shortly after 9/11 with my father's name inscribed on it. It's like one of those "Live strong" bracelets, except this one is made of Steel. (It bends so it can come on and off really easily.)
I also have my Jellifish. I have a bad day when I forget to slip that mofo back into my wallet.
