Are you open to cross-gender votes? I don't see why not.
1. Please list three positive traits you possess and why you chose them.
Intelligence It is one of my best traits, I believe, as well as one that stands out. This isn't just me flattering myself, as many people do say that I am quite smart and 'witty'. I tend to follow more logic and reason than emotion and intuition as well. I would really like to think, however, that I am quite average. But I guess people, generally speaking, aren't as smart as they used to be.
Calm I am in almost complete control of what I say and my emotions. This is also a somewhat negative thing, as emotions tend to get bottled, but we're talking about good things, aren't we~? Anyway, because I rarely get angry or otherwise overly emotional, I can look at situtions with little bias, most of the time. I can also calmly describe an intense situation, if need be.
Mature I've had people tell me I'm too mature, or that they don't believe I'm not even over the age of 20. I think it's a fairly good thing, but some people don't like it as much. Sometimes I act a bit immature, such as when I purposefully avoid doing something, and I'm certainly not a stick in the mud. I also like to have fun. But when it gets down to it, I really am very mature.
2. Please list three negative traits you possess and why you chose them.
My Sense of 'Humor I really love it. But other people...not so much. I'm sarcastic, sardonic, and tend to use deadpan humor. It's just how I 'roll'. But lots of people don't think I'm taking the situation seriously enough (which I probably aren't) and get really annoyed by it.
My Apathy Many situations...I just end up not caring. If something's not relevant to the current discussion, I'll dismiss it. I really just don't like wasting time with frivolous matters. Especially if it's someone I don't know well.
Apathy: Part Two For lack of a better word. Death and emotions are hard things for me to 'get'. I probably just wasn't raised close enough to my parents emotionally, or I just don't 'care'. But logic tells me that a dead body is just a hunk of organs and flesh, and people think that's pretty disrespectful. Death's a macabre intrest of mine. Certainly not causing it, but what it is. I want to be a coroner and preform autopsies as a profession. I'm facinated by how the body functions. And people think that's freaky and disrespectful.
3. If you could do something illegal without any consequences whatsoever, would you do it and why or why not? Depended on what it is. Some laws are really silly. I wouldn't kill for no reason, though, or rob. I wouldn't do anything major without a good reason. But, dammit, if I want to tie my giraffe to a telephone pole, I will.
4. If you were faced with a situation where you only had time to make a choice that allowed you to use your intelligence or strength to prevail, which would you choose and why? Intelligence. Really, it's stronger than my physical strength. And I'd get tired. I don't get as tired thinking~!
5. What do you value above all else and why? I suppose, logically, my life. Without that, I'd have nothing left to value, now would I?
6. Would you consider yourself to be more of a leader or a follower and why? I'm kind of a leader from the shadows. I wouldn't be queen, but I'd have the real power and influence. In short, I don't want to be a figurehead. I'm not that great working one on one with people, but I can make informed decisions. So not quite a leader, but certainly not a follower.
7. If you could choose to possess one trait or physical aspect, what would you pick and why? I think to be fully functional in this world of ours, I need to be less apathetic and negative. I really think the worst of humans, generally. And people don't like my apathy. That's part of what's keeping me from becoming a regular doctor or lawyer, which are occupations I have also considered.
8. Anything else you would like to add? Nothing more to add to my long-winded application. Other than forgive my ugliness in my pictures :3
9. Please include one picture of yourself, a doll, or a description of yourself.
Not how I normally part my hair, but it's probably my best picture. What, with my "TEAM GERMANY" shirt. Out of the country English is amusing.
