Do you have a "family history" of aviation/piloting?

Yes, both parents were pilots (only for recreation, not as profession)

Are you an adventure seeker (anything from "true" adrenaline junkee to
"every day is different and brings a new challenge")

Meh, in some aspects. I definately enjoy trying new things.

Are you constantly seeking new challenges?

New challenges that add something to my life, definately. My goal is
to try to live a life that would be interesting to read about.

(subpart) Do you find that you get bored easily?

Yes.

Do you have a "thirst for knowledge" (e.g. would you rather be in
school than working)?

I would rather be actively learning, not in a classroom.

(subpart) Do you find yourself constantly seeking out new things
about flying regularly or do you only look it up when you run across
something you don't know.

Yes. The aspect of flying that puts one's life in the balance - based
soley on that person's knowledge and skill - that motivates me to seek
out new information.

(subpart - for instructors) Do you enjoy it when your student "gets
it" or has that "aha! moment?"

Not an instructor..

Are you a "control freak" (type-a)?

No

Do you have hints of "delusions of grandeur?" or is it more like "I'm
on top of the world when I fly"

Nah

Are you an introvert or an extrovert?
Whosiwhatsit?

If given the choice, would you rather read fiction or an aviation
oriented book?

Either or

(For those that use the radio) Do you find that you have always had
good communication skills?

As a matter of fact, yes.

Are you left brained or right brained (logic-and-math or Artsy
fartsy)?

Right brained

I've been fascinated with aviation from a very young age. As a child,
I would go through phases where I would focus my interest on very
specific topics. One month would be an aviation nut, talking about
nothing but planes. The next month, I would be solely interested in
cars. The following month it would be trains....etc...

However, while my interest in Cars, Trains, etc. has dwindled over the
past 10 years, my love of flying and airplanes has not. Even through
my crazy highschool and early college years, I ALWAYS had an interest
in Flight Sims and aviation.

The deciding factor that lead me to actually do something real and get
my ticket was that I worked for the Air National Guard as an avionics
tech, and every day I would see the pilots come out to their aircraft
and go fly - it was amazing to think they actually did that for money.
So I thought "That should be me!" and that was that.
