THIS OR THAT
(Please provide a short explanation as well)
Optimistic or pessimistic? optimistic; i'd like to be one, life would be less stressful.
Leader or follower? leader; because i always get lost or confused following and often find myself following people who are not intelligent enough to be "leading"
Introvert or extrovert? introvert; i am one and i can appreciate people who don't say every single thing on their mind or have to be friends with everyone.
Mature or immature? mature; because, well, immaturity is annoying (except on the internet of course)
Violent or peaceful? peaceful; i am very anti-war, and try to not to be so violent in my every day language (i'm working on it...)
Selfish or altruistic? selfish; because when it comes down to it, everyone is
Rude or polite? polite, because rude people are a pain in the ass
Eat here or take away? take away; i think you mean going out to eat? i like going out to eat, its like an adventure since i never get to do it
MISC.
What do you consider to be your one very best trait and why? I try to be a good friend. I am there for people if they need me, I'll go out of my way if they need me, I try to be a neutral yet validating listening ear who is also trustworthy, I am generous when I can be, and I like to create environments for myself and others where we can all be happy.
And what do you think is your worst? I have a negative frame of mind from a lifetime of pessimism and cynicism and generalized anger at the world. Now that I am older, I am still stuck with that negativity, it's hard to change that way of thinking, and it is the cause of a lot of my debilitating anxiety and stress.
If you could change one thing about yourself or your life, what would it be? My money situation. I would be rich!
If you could be any inanimate object, what would you be and why? A black light poster, because the majority of people using me are probably on drugs.
What element do you most identify with and why? ummm Fire, because my face is constantly becoming flushed, red & hot, and I also get redness on my chest; either if i am too hot, embarrassed, really angry, overly tired or overly hyper...but especially when I'm mad. I have a bad temper...once the spark flickers, the flames spread quickly and all rationale must be evacuated.
LOST
Providing food and water is not an issue, which three items would you want to have with you on the island? Please elaborate. A comfy pillow because I like to be comfy, a David Sedaris book to amuse me and stimulate my mind, and some sort of music playing device that wouldn't shut off when the batteries died so I don't get scared of the smoke monster or just the night in general :) .
Which Lost character do you personally think is most suited to be everyone’s leader and why? Richard, because he doesn't seem to have an underlying agenda like most, and he's not dead like Locke.
Would YOU accept this position? Why? Why not? Hell yes, because I'd spend all day with Richard and learn the secrets of the island and embark on crazy missions and treasure hunts.
Which Lost character do you least identify with and why? well that's very broad. I would say I least identify with Kate because of the way she treats men and her constant need to run (I have too much STUFF to be on the run). She is much more bold and adventurous than I am as well, aaaaand well I could list a million reasons why I don't identify with a million characters so I'll stop now.
Anything else you would like to add? Sure...I love Lost. I think I put too much time into this application.
