| - Q: How
much horsepower does your car have?
- A: To be honest, I haven't
officially tested it or anything. I'd like
to think it's well past the 200 mark, but conservatively, and
realistically,
it probably hovers pretty close to 200. I'll have to get Harry
to actually
test it one of these days if he's not too busy. To me,
Torque is more
important than HP anyway.

| - Q: How
many times did you crash?
- A: Define "Crash". I
mean, I've spun out, and I've slid off the road.
I've even, um, tapped some objects here and there, but I've never
really
"Crashed" or done any real body damage to my car. I
guess that makes
me pretty lucky, or at least I THOUGHT I was pretty lucky until
this
whole BEING TURNED INTO A FRICKIN' GIRL situation arose.
Maybe it's karma, but I still think it sucks.

| - Q:
Where do you get the money for all the car stuff?
- A: Well, my dad helped me pay for
the car, but the modifications
I've paid for have cost WAY more than the car itself. I have a
small
allowance, but most of the money comes from the summer jobs I
do.
I save that money and spend it throughout the year.

| - Q:
Where did you learn mechanic stuff?
- A: Well, I've always been into cars,
so I read a lot of technical
magazines and stuff growing up, which I though taught me a
lot,
until I actually started working on real cars. The first
real
experience I got was when my friend James got his dad's 3000GT
VR4 when his dad replaced it with an NSX. James already knew
a
lot about mechanics, and so I learned a lot from him. Then,
when I
got my XR4Ti, we worked on that until he went to college this
year,
and now I pretty much get my tips from Harry at Aries, the
local
autoshop.

| - Q:
Ever been close to death?
- A: Well, when I was around 5, I took
a really bad fall on a jungle
gym and broke some bones and fractured my skull. That's about
as
close to death as I've ever been. I barely remember that
though.

- Q:
Will you get it going with Emily, or will you go out with
some guy?
- A: Dude, seriously, don't test me
right now. Like I would ever go
out with some guy. Honestly I'm hoping this situation won't
last long
enough for me to find out about Emily either. She can be nice
enough
now and then, but she can also be fairly trying at times, and even
if
I could get past the annoying parts of her attitude, something
tells
me she's not into the whole "lesbian" game.

| - Q:
Don't you have school?
- A: Yeah, tomorrow, and I'm dreading
every moment. I don't even
like school to begin with.

- Q:
Have you been in a girl's locker room/shower since
turning into a female?
- A: No, and while being in a girl's
locker room has always been a
sort of "guy" fantasy, this is going to be a
fairly twisted version
of it. I mean, it's uncomfortable
enough just being a girl, but what
if the other girls can tell I'm
all turned on by them? That, and I'm
going to have to change
clothes in front of other people when I'm
frankly not even
comfortable looking at myself right now. You
know what, I
don't really want to think about this right now. I
Know I have
gym class tomorrow, and it's freaking me out. Next
question
please...
