1) pick a number from 1-9
2) subtract 5
3) multiply by 3
4) square the number (multiply by the same number -- not square root)
5) add the digits until you get only one digit
(i.e.64=6+4=10;10=1+0=1)
6) if the number is less than 5, add five. Otherwise subtract 4
7) multiply by 2
8) subtract 6
9) map the digit to a letter in the alphabet 1=A, 2=B, 3=C, etc...
10) pick a name of a country that begins with that letter
11) take the second letter in the country name and think of an animal
that begins with that letter
12) think of the color of that animal
