Interesting that ten seems too old to start out in music - Canadians say that about hockey, but then you can have a lifelong career playing and composing music as opposed to chasing a puck up and down the ice. I didn't know how to do anything when I was ten. LOL - reading was about it - and of course when you're reading about kids who have extraordinary powers or stories, it does give you an inferiority complex.
I'm terrible about those desert island and lifeboat questions, too! Some people love them, though.
Oh, James and Sirius! I still have a soft spot for them (and a healthy dislike of Snape!). I could see you in the Remus role (without all of the wereworf angst, of course!)
Frozen pizza - pizza in general - is a staple around here, too. I think the world (or at least the younger parts of it) runs on Diet Coke. I have to have my coffee - but my husband has to have his diet coke.
I might have done all right if I'd started with actual music at age 10, but 17 was definitely far too late. I think it probably takes years of repetitious practice to be able to recognise the sound of chords and individual notes as second nature, and also to connect that immediately with what's written on the page--all of which is required to get very far with music in general. Even though I was way ahead of a lot of people in composing ability, it only takes you so far without the practical side to back it up.
I can't stand the taste of diet stuff in general. Pizza is like, my life and stuff, I thrive on it to an absurd degree. Good thing I have some kind of hyper metabolism to put it away easily (though secretly I fear that it will catch up with me and I'll became a diabetic tub when I'm old. lol
