Raising the Question

When did you last win a prize?
Every now and then we all get that little feeling called pride, where we came out on top, beat the odds, or simple had the luck fall our way. Do you remember how it felt to have that strut in your step, even just for a little while. At the same time you were trying not to gloat in front of the others, or perhaps making it look like it was no big deal, when on the inside your head you were doing a little victory dance and rubbing it in their faces. (maybe thats just me).
What did you win? Who did you beat? Were you expected to win or was it one of those classic stories where the underdog comes through at the last minute to win the prize and steal the girl?

What is the craziest thing you have done to impress someone?
There would not be too many people that have not done something that they later regret simply to impress a boy or girl. My favorite trick to compensate for my inability to talk to women was to get so drunk that I became the annoying guy that makes a fool of himself and can’t remember it in the morning. In hind sight, probably not my best idea but I can safely say, at least I got noticed, just not in the way I was hoping for.
What about you? Time to fess up. What crazy thing did you do to impress someone, and did it work?

What memories do you hold for each room in your house?
The other night I was having trouble sleeping so I was trying to remember some fun times to help me relax and go to sleep. I do this by asking myself a new question that I have never asked myself, and also thinking of memories linked to certain anchors, such as people of places. I started thinking about places and realized that I had a trigger for hundreds of memories all under my own roof. I could go through each room in the house, and with a little bit of effort and an open mind, I suddenly flooded myself with more memories than I could have dreamed of (excusing the pun. haha.)
Memories may be fun time with your childs, private time with your spouse, good times with friends or loved ones, and many more. Each one giving you a chance to feel connected without having to wake anyone up at 3am, which from experience is never a good idea. I still have the scars.
Now its your turn.
What is the worst break up ever?
Hey all, I was playing on youtube the other day and saw a video of Taylor Swift on The Ellen Show talking about her break up with Joe Jonas. He he called and broke up with her in a 27 second conversation. I thought to myself, it seems no-one is safe from an ugly break up.

Have you ever suffered from a panic attack?
If you have ever suffered from a panic attack, you will know how truly frightening they can be. When a person finds themself in a frightening situation that they fell they have no control over, they can suffer from a panic attack. This is where your mind perceives a threat so the body goes into a ‘Fight’ and Flight’ response. The fight and flight response is a natural response to danger that releases hormones through the body to enable them to either fight the dangerous situation or to run from it.
The symptoms of a panic attack can vary from person to person. It can include an increase in heart rate, quick and shallow breathing, tense muscles, perspiration as well as many others.
