proust questionnaire.

a few weeks ago we had a session at work that was really similar to a proust questionnaire.  it was an attempt to better get to know the people you spend most of your days with.
i have answered these types of questionnaires before.  initially i was really reluctant to have to participate in this  - especially with people i work with.  it's always a bit uncomfortable to share things with people who
are colleagues not just friends.  but in the end it was super helpful and turned out to be fun.  people shared more than i thought they would and some of it really surprised me.  it even gave me a new outlook on
some things.
