My 2nd favorites: the list

I'm turning my assignment in on time now, some of these really gave me trouble.  Now I'll go do my real homework that's due tomorrow...
John's Weekend Assignment #2: Describe your second-favorite of the following:
(Here's my Disclaimer: Second favorites may change at any time as tastes change and people grow up.  That said, here is my pretty juvenile list:)
Movie:
The Shawshank Redemption
This was a hard decision, but I'm basing this on the number of times I've seen it.  And nothing can top the last 20 minutes of the movie.
Book:
I'm a reader and it's very hard to pick favorites when I love them all.  Ask me any day my second favorite and I will tell you a different book.  Today I'm going to say
Dolphin Island by Arthur C. Clarke
Album:
Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Once More, With Feeling.  We listen to it the most because it's something my daughter and I both enjoy. 'Under Your Spell' is my favorite track, 'I've Got A Theory' is hers.
School teacher:
Mrs. Graham, 2nd & 3rd grades.  I'll never forget how caring she was.
Ice cream flavor:
I'm not a real ice cream fan, and I hardly ever eat it, but...I like Reese's Blizzards from Dairy Queen.  Does that count?
Sports team:
Chicago Cubs - It's probably Wrigley Field that does it for me.
Comfort food:
The thing I make most often after peanut butter & jelly?  That would be KRAFT Original Macaroni Cheese.
Celebrity crush:
Ed Harris.  You know why.  He's ED HARRIS.
Cartoon character:
Lilo from Lilo & Stitch.  She's so cute, and she loves Elvis.
Way to relax:
Playing the piano.  You forget all your worries and just play.

10 things

I missed this weekend's assignment by an hour, maybe I can get an extension on my homework because I was out of town... here's 10 things (I'm too tired to even fathom doing 25 things right now)...
1. I had my jaw broken in four places and wired shut for six weeks the summer I was 15.
2. I started taking college classes at 16 years old and I didn't graduate until I was 27. Now I'm going back for my second degree.
3. I once broke up with somebody on his voicemail. I'm not proud of it, it's one of the worst things I've ever done.
4. I gave birth to my daughter via natural childbirth, no drugs. It's not that I didn't want the drugs!, but I made it to the hospital almost too late, and definitely too late for painkillers.
5. I am a very bad driver.
6. I lived in Germany for three years as a child.
7. I play the piano.
8. I am a card-carrying member of the Planetary Society.
9. I've been dating my boyfriend for eight years but I've known him for 17 years.
10. I am a Christian. My goal is to live up to His example of love. I often fail (emphasis on often) but I'll never stop trying.
