What is your most memorable childhood experience?It would be when I was around three years old.

My friend's mom then nicely told me about the doorbell and that I should use that to see if my friend could come to play or not.
What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why?My father, mainly because we look very similiar and I have picked up 75% of his traits.

What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you?When I was a kid (four or five) I had an "accident" in my pants and I thought it was the funniest thing. My parents disagreed.

To this day I think it's the funniest thing to ever happen to me.
