The four best things to happen to me in my life.
1. When I visited Caltech, a famous physicist told me that he saw a lot of himself in me. I could see the sincerity in his eyes, and it was the happiest day of my life. I felt- wanted. I've had my heart set on Caltech since then.
2. At ten, when I found a baby bird with a broken wing and vowed to make it well again. I fed it, read through heavy books that detailed correct care and woke up each hour all through the night to feed it. The following morning, when Maisie awoke me and I struggled to open my eyes, it was healthy. We laughed, took it outside and it flew away.
3. When my mother told me were moving to California. The air in the house was thick with memories of my father, and the weather in Colorado did not help with the depression either. I was ready to move on. I think. Although, I still haven't seen his grave. (I spent the funeral inside the church, my mother's request)
4. When I made a small nuclear reactor, although I didn't have any fissionable materials (
The Four worst things to happen to me in my life.
1. When I was ten years old and my father told me he had perhaps a year to live - I asked if if he'd be around to see next winter's snowfall, and he promised that he would build a snowman with me. Six months later when the leukemia stole him and he broke his promises. Mother sat by the window and didn't blink. Maisie, then just six years old, climbed into my arms hung on so tight I thought she might never let go.
2. When I wore a suit for the first and last time. It was my father's funeral, and I remember an aunt coming up to me and saying that I was the man of the house now. That night I packaged up the suit in brown paper and hid it in a cupboard, never to be seen again.
3. When I was seven I lived in Colorado. I was resting on a park bench when I saw a man steal the coat of a homeless lady right before my eyes. I wanted to be strong enough to chase him and demand that he gave it back - that it was snowing outside, afterall, and where was his heart? But I was scared, small as well. So, slowly, I removed my own coat and gave it to the lady. I arrived on my doorstep an hour later, blue and hating myself a little bit more than yesterday.
4. When the neighborhood kids took my latest invention and smashed it. They called me a 'Freak', and to this day it's one of the only words that can really hurt me.
