I haven't done this in awhile: the Friday Five:

1. What was/is your favorite subject in school? Why?

I've always been a bookworm, so English was my favorite class overall. Once I was in Secondary 5 (Grade 11 for my US readers), I got hooked on Computer Science.

2. Who was your favorite teacher? Why?

I mention my favorite teacher on my personal site: Hope Hoey. She was my teacher in grades 3 and 5. She encouraged me to work with my imagination, and to develop the intellect they found then.

3. What is your favorite memory of school?

That would have to be the opening night of my grad year musical One Born Every Minute. I played one of the male leads. I still have it on videotape... I have to get it digitized very soon. The tape has withstood 17+ years, but I don't want to continue to tempt fate.

4. What was your favorite recess game?

I wasn't much into activity, so I can't say I had one.

5. What did you hate most about school?

Kids can be cruel, and the ones I grew up with were no exception. Racial slurs, pennies thown at me, and worms (because they creeped me out). Hard to narrow it down to one.
