Text By Meera Sethi

1. When I was a little girl I used to wish I was a boy. I thought boys had it better at the time, but now I realize I much prefer being a woman.

3. I am really afraid of heights. Despite this I've been both hang gliding and ridden in a hot air balloon.

4. My sister and I had many different kinds of pets when we were kids. The list includes: a cat, two dogs, four gerbils, two hamsters, one mouse, two rats, two guinea pigs, a rabbit, one finch, a salamander, and a garter snake. We didn't have these all at the same time, and the list doesn't include pets we've had as adults.

6. Two things that go very well together are my love of stationery and my enjoyment of writing letters.

9. Despite my interest in self portraiture I don't really like having my picture taken.

13. I made lemon curd and trifle for the first time ever over the Christmas holidays and it reminded me how enjoyable it can be to make things from scratch.

16. I enjoy writing lists. :)
