9. What was your biggest failure? [ Canon DV Fest. ]

Had duty at the museum today, where I:

  • Made a wishing angel,
  • Toured the Power Dressing exhibition twice,
  • Wore red and green and a santa hat,
  • Got my first gingerbread man of the season, and
  • Did my job properly for only 2 minutes

I haven't mentioned that my dad went for a hypnotism course. He's now outside listening to a hypnosis CD at full volume. My mum wanted him to hypnotise my brother, so that he'd feel less queasy about prawn innards.
