How Well Do You Know Cameron?

Here are the long awaited, much anticipated answers to the quiz I posted last week, "How Well Do You Know Cameron?" I hope you guessed right!

1. What is my favorite color? A. Electric Blue. Blue is by far my favorite color, I think it has something to do with it being the color of my eyes. There are, however, only a couple shades of blue that I like. I'm not a fan of navy blue, but I love both electric blue and baby blue.


2. What sports team do I really follow? D. USC Trojan Football. If you were to ask me what sports teams I like, I'd say all Los Angeles (Except the stupid Angels which aren't even in LA County). But the team I really follow, and watch every game (or at least try not to miss) is USC Trojan football. My Brother, my sister-in-law, and my sister all went to (or are currently attending) USC.

3. What country to I want to visit that I've never been to? B. Ireland. I have no idea why, but I am infatuated with anything Irish. I love the Irish, their accents, music, food and all. I have only seen pictures of their lush green rolling hills, and Celtic Cathedrals. This is certainly a place I would love to go to!

4. What is my favorite TV show of ALL TIME? C. Boy Meets World. While I love Lost and Seinfeld, Boy Meets World is my favorite TV show of all time. Although it's not the greatest show, I hugely identify with Cory Matthews. He has an older brother and younger sister, just like me. He is a good kid, who, at times makes poor decisions and did things without thinking, this was me when I was a kid.

5. At Biola, I got my degree in? C. Christian Education Ministries. I love how the mind works. When I went to a community college, I was studying Psychology. But that was only because they didn't have a major in Christian Education Ministries. So when I transfered to Biola I majored in Christian Education Ministries. I didn't need to repeat classes because all I had done at the community college was my general education classes.

6. I am an Eagle Scout? True. I was never in Cub Scouts, but when I was old enough, I followed my brother in Boy Scouts. It was A LOT of hard work, and it took A LOT of perseverance and discipline. I would not have made it without my mom, who didn't do things for me (like other scouts I knew at the time), but rather pushed, encouraged and supported me. Thank you so much MOM! You helped me to achieve one of my biggest accomplishments.

7. Who is my favorite artist? A. Ansel Adams. While the others are great artist and have done some amazing pieces of art, none can affect me quite as much as Ansel Adams. He was a photographer from 1927 till about 1974. Ansel Adams was able to capture on film, the richness and beauty of God's creation. It was with Adams help and photographs that helped the National Parks become what they are, and was instrumental in making Yosemite the National Park that it is today.

8. My favorite series of books are? C. The Ender's Game Series. While the others are good, I'm less of a fantasy fan as I am a Sci-Fi fan. When I was in high school, I had to do summer reading. Ender's Game was on the list. It is a story set in the future when Humans have already had two great battles with distant aliens. It follows Andrew "Ender" Wiggin, who is not much older than 8 but was bred with a super smart and strategic brain. He goes up to a school in a space station to train how to become a strategic general so that humans can defeat the alien race the next time they come in contact. Who wouldn't want to read about aliens and space travel?!


9. What reality TV show would I want to be on? B. Amazing Race. From the moment I saw this show, I have wanted to be on it. I mean who wouldn't want to be on a show where you travel around the world. I would love to be on this show with my brother. I believe we could go all the way!

10. What is one of my life goals? D. Donate 10 gallons of blood. I have been donating blood since I was 16. It's something I love to do. It's something that I can do to help save lives. It really doesn't cost me anything, except some time... and some blood, which replenishes anyway. When I was in college I made it my goal to donate 10 gallons of blood- that's 80 pints (which is what you give every time you donate). I have gone 15 times, so I only have 65 more times to donate before I hit my goal.

Now you know a little about myself. I hope you enjoyed this. The next time you see me, tell me your favorite book series, or a life goal that you have, that way we can get to know each other better. =)

  1. Hello my friend,

    As I understand, it takes either 5 or 6 donations to = a gallon. I give every 56 days which is the minimum amount of time needed in between donations. I've been giving since the 1973 first at City of Hope 3+ gallons and at Torrance Memorial since the mid- 1980's there I hope to be at 9 gallons by June of next year. You are absolutely right blood cannot be created by any other means other than by you, me and other people we are the only source and if we don't give it when we can there won't be any when someone needs it.....fun to follow you Cameron, I'm blessed to know you, Dave
