New: The Friday Five
I am starting something new at my blog… weekly answering The Friday Five.
It basically works like this — I go to that website once a week, read the questions and then answer them here in the extended entry. I think this is cool, because answering questions is fun! Yea!
Here is my first set of questions –
1. Are you superstitious?
2. What extremes have you heard of someone going to in the name of superstition?
3. Believer or not, what’s your favorite superstition?
4. Do you believe in luck? If yes, do you have a lucky number/article of clothing/ritual?
5. Do you believe in astrology? Why or why not?
Answers:
1. I am tempted to be superstitious from time to time. Such as the time when I broke Joy’s mirror… I was pretty worried about some major bad luck for about five minutes after that. Luckily, Lana was willing to break the thing again and agian and again afterwards. That kinda killed that worry for me. I don’t think that I actually am superstitious though… just tempted quite often.
2. The salt throwing thing seems pretty extreme to me. I don’t know why people do that, but I’ve seen it done, and it is probably the only thing that I have seen done in the name of superstition.
3. Friday the 13th!
4. I used to believe in luck. No longer. My “lucky” numbers are two and eight, mainly because my birthdate is 2/28/82.
5. Believe in? I hate that phrasing. I am interested in astrology and I think it is valid. That pretty much answers the question. Do I put my faith in any of it? Nothing serious… just some of the personality assessment aspects of it. I am completely against horoscopes too.
