My favorite mode of transportation was a kangaroo carrier\u2014strollers were for babies. I used to slide down the stairs astride a big stuffed dog. My comfort toy was a white bunny, now earless, courtesy of my teething adventures.<\/p><p>The youngest of three siblings, I raised my voice (since I couldn\u2019t raise my height) to make myself heard. My signature phrase was, \u201cLook, Mom!\u201d as I showed her my somersaults, drawings, handstands, five-layer sandwiches, hair gel experiments (a whole pot in one go), or bold outfit combos like a floral shirt with plaid shorts. However, I was far quieter when it came to showing her my report card.<\/p><p>Curious by nature, I tried hockey, judo, tennis, hip-hop dance, skateboarding, diabolo, and even flips. I love starting things but rarely finish them\u2014I don\u2019t like the word \u201cThe End\u201d at the close of a movie. After school, I would dive straight into snacks and colored pencils. Today, my love for food hasn\u2019t faded, nor has my affection for creativity.
