Que Sera Sera

[NoJo]

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother
What will I be
Will I be pretty
Will I be rich
Here's what she said to me:


In school when I was ten, we had to write about one of our classmates, imagining them as adults. The two people who picked me as a subject both predicted I would become a mad professor.

Forty years on and my sons' friends call me the "mad professor". So there was something there, I guess. Maybe I missed my calling: I may be a little eccentric, but I dropped out of college, and I've avoided academia like the plague.

Have you turned out as you/your schoolfriends/your parents predicted?

Or are you still wondering who you might become?

I was thought of as religious, sensitive, reclusive and artistic. I'm still sensitive, reclusive (in RL) and artistic.

P.

p.s. but when I really was a little girl my father said he expected me to be a movie star or be married by 16.

I wanted to be the Chiquita banana lady, the closest I came was the fruit hat!

 

[NoJo]

But you're stillsweet and tasty. And I'm sure you help prevent cramp.

What did you think of that prediction?

I loved it, especially the way my father said it, as if either of those two things would make me happy. Getting married at 16 wasn't a big deal in my family and I doubt anyone else in my life thought I could be a moviestar. btw, we had recently moved to L.A. (where my papi died a year later ). P.
