Are you open to cross-gender votes? Yes. I do think in my heart I'm a girl, though.
1. Please list three positive traits you possess and why you chose them.
Intelligence - This doesn't mean "good at math," which I suck at, but I am generally very intelligent. I'm really thoughtful, intellectual, insightful, and witty.
Creativity - I have a great imagination, and I come up with creative ideas all the time. I'm a very aesthetic person, and I create art in my mind if not from my actual hands.
Independence - I'm very unconventional, I don't do what others do just for the sake of it. I don't go with what others think. And I don't really need anyone. I'm very much self-reliant, and it doesn't mean I don't care what anyone thinks about me, which I do a great deal, but at the end of the day I'm still independent from others.
2. Please list three negative traits you possess and why you chose them.
Selfishness - I can be uncaring, about like family matters and newspaper catastrophes and stuff. I find it hard to empathize a lot of the time with mass-scale human suffering. Sometimes I do things that hurt others without even really thinking about it, because I just think it's a private thing in my head that I do because I want to.
Arrogance - I really look down on people for their bad taste, etc. And I'm told that I can be conceited and think I'm always right.
Laziness - Hehe, I don't really do everything I want to because I'm kind of lazy. I like taking the easy way, and falling into routine and all. I am really obsessive-compulsive about some things, but some things I wouldn't ever mobilize my energies for. Like cleaning.
3. If you could do something illegal without any consequences whatsoever, would you do it and why or why not?
It depends what it is. If it's shoplifting a piece of candy, yeah. If it's killing someone, not at all. You should have your own moral compass to guide you. And some things that people get punished by the law for, like stealing because they can't feed themselves, are just stupid, and more of a "technical" crime. If I could break a law to help someone I love in a big way that's needed, I'd do it.
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?
My intelligence. I'm a weakling! I wouldn't depend on it for anything.
5. What do you value above all else and why?
Art. My life is pretty much filled up with art, and it contains all the best qualities of humanity, it deals with pretty much all my values. Art is about beauty, not necessarily prettiness. I especially love literature, but I'm also really, really into visual art with a surreal bent, photography, etc.
6. Would you consider yourself to be more of a leader or a follower and why?
Neither. I follow in things I don't really care about, like in class projects at school, for example, but I don't follow anyone in my beliefs or opinions. In my mind I just stick to what I know and think, and no one is going to sway me, I wouldn't just follow them like a sheep. But I don't really lead or want to, either.
7. If you could choose to possess one trait or physical aspect, what would you pick and why?
I'd like to have more courage, basically to withstand life and do what I have to.
8. Anything else you would like to add?
No'm.
9. Please include at least one picture or a description of yourself.
