    All in the title ;)

    For me growing up, Xena Warrior Princess was my role model. I never had much of a family life, so watching Xena made me feel like I could be strong too. As strong as men even. When I feel like I cannot accomplish something I often think of Xena and she gives me strength. I know she's not real but her portrayal is as real as anything I've ever had in my life.

    What about you? :)

    I don't think I legitimately had a "rolemodel".

    I know its ironic, but my biggest role model is actually Markus Person. (love minecraft!)

    I looked up to him because he overcame the challenges (and challengers, like the "it-wont-work" people, or the occasional "you-idiot" commenter), and did what he liked to do. About 3-5 (not sure) years after he started, he how gets the credit for making one of the best games ever and for revolutionizing the gaming industry (no-kidding, read that on a game-informer magazine). I feel sorry for his brother though....
