****I don't know what "twitter" means (I need to learn what that is

****For the past two years, I get nervous about driving by myself (something I've been struggling with and I hate it)

****I wish I could eat hot fudge brownies everyday (with cold vanilla ice cream)

****I wish I could have the power to heal the sick (end suffering in everyway)

****At times, I tell God "I'm sorry" whenever I see inhumanity on the news. (wish people were always kind and loving on this earth)

[Sunny]

1. I didin't speak English until just before I started kindergarten. My mother tongue is Hungarian.

2. I love to travel!! Anywhere. Anytime. I've often thought that it might due to the fact that my mother was pregnant with me when she and the rest of my family escaped from Hungary during the 1956 Revolution (think Sound of Music, but much worse).

3. I lived in the south end of the Okanagan Valley for a couple of years, and loved it there!!!

4. My ultimate goal is to be the first Canadian to judge the Nationals!!

5. I'm very grateful to Arlene Foulk for hiring me to judge a show in August 2007. It became a life-changing event for me.

 

[Matt73]

1. I laugh (hysterical, have to cover my mouth, laughing) during funeral services. I'm thinking it's a nervous, emotional response (I hope). That said, I haven't been to one in, oh, maybe 10 years...touch wood.

2. I travelled to West Palm Beach to groom and exercise hunters and jumpers for a Grand Prix rider after 911, because it's something I always wanted to do and really had a sense of urgency, after that tragedy, to live my dreams (edited to add: and I met Glenn Close (she was watching her daughter ride) and talked to her for, like, ten minutes!...Very nice woman).

3. My first real love was for a horse named Affaire. A gorgeous, grey Hanoverian mare that I rode occasionally at the age of 14.

4. I, often, am disappointed and saddened by my twin.

5. I studied at U of T and planned to be a doctor like my dad...Plans changed
