#11 asks

Gingie is leaning upon his desk, slumped with wide eyes and a hand to his forehead. Despite the overwhelm, it's obvious from the look on his face that he's very, very amused.

"I don't know, darling!" he chuckles, "You tell me!"

My voice teacher from my first university gave me a signed copy of Leonardo Dreams of His Flying Machine by Eric Whitacre on my last voice lesson with him. He wanted me to have it so that I know to always reach for my dreams, because they are closer than they seem. I still have it in a safe place so that I can take it out whenever I need 

2. Do you recall the moment you realized you were an adult? Have you had that moment? (for me it was when I bought a nice couch)

The moment I was in charge of someone else was the moment I realized I was an adult. That moment when I was asked to change the 6-month water filter in the tea shop that I used to work in and I nearly flooded the place.
