Quite a mix! There's been plenty of soldier-writers, but I can't think of any actress-soldiers!
I thought a lot about animation when young, but I had no tech at all to produce it with. And spent little time drawing, either. I was born 20 years too soon.
so, you've made your dream real! and I have no chance to become an ancient history professor now (and, actually, don't WANT to). maybe Life knew what it was doing, after all :)
absolutely. and even if you don't teach too much but do lots of research, I wouldn't be that now. I can't say my dreams are fulfilled, but I like what I'm doing, and this is not thast little.

but that is undoubtedly better than anything they showed us before that, so... it probably makes sense.
