Two Truths and a Lie

mysid1. I was born with clubbed feet. One was just a bit turned, and the other was quite severely turned--so much so that I wouldn't be able to walk today if they hadn't corrected it.
2. I was a cheerleader in high school--for only one year. I made the squad as a sophomore (that's age 15-ish for the non-Americans), but became disenchanted when I realized what pot-heads the rest of the squad was. I decided not to rejoin the following year.
3. My first fanfic fandom was Aquaman, which is quite surprising as (A) he's rather rubbish as far as superheros go, and (B) I'm not really into comic books.
OK, friends. Which is the lie?
Update:
1) Truth: I tend to forget this one until something reminds me. This time, it was my dad showing my baby photos to my kids.
2) Lie: Me? A cheerleader? I'm the complete opposite of cheerleader. Gym class was the only class I came close to failing in high school; I'm completely uncoordinated.
3) Truth: I only read one Aquaman comic book in my life, but the whole "King of Atlantis" thing appealed to me. I created a Mary Sue for myself: great hair, fabulous name, cool powers, and made her/me his younger sister. The best part, since he was a king, she/I was a princess!

Date: 2010-04-07 06:12 am (UTC)btw, here is my reasoning on your puzzle.
1. I think you are too much of a decent person to make light of a potentially crippling disability in a game. You might write about it in a fic, but not a fun fluff thing like this. Therefore T.
2. Hmm. Since I thought that #1 was true, I thought that perhaps some residual problems might have made Cheerleading difficult. On the other hand, maybe you took on Cheerleading as a challenge, to prove you could do anything. So, I wasn't sure, 50/50 in my mind.*
3. Aquaman? He water-skis on the backs of dolphins. Aquaman fic was too bizarre not to be true.
So, by process of elimination, 2 had to be the lie.
*So I was totally wrong about 1 and 2 being related. But, I thought I'd let you know what I thought since part of the fun is seeing what folks think of you.
