Another soul to the sorting
Edited: 7/2/05
If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
Change something about the world? A hard question, I don’t really want to change the world, because I believe to change the world you’d have to change human nature, and as far as I know there just isn’t a way to do that, so you just smile and take it like it is, or make an effort to do what you can to make it a better place. I suppose sense there is no real way to change what I'd most like to change, I would not truly change anything about the world at all. It's just something that will have to sit and manage to work its-self out.
What makes a person respectable?
I think someone is respectable when they know how to act given the situation, when they judge things carefully and do what they feel is right. It may not fall into what people think of when they view the word. But that is the sort of thing that makes me respect people, common sense and a good sense of humor.
What do you look for in a friend?
Somebody who will above all always be 100% honest, in our friendship and everything else. I want somebody who isn’t afraid to tell me what they think. Someone fun loving but intelligent, who knows the value of hard work but can relax after you’ve finished with a good joke or a small party or something. They need to have a good sense of humor and be creative.
What are your hobbies?
Reading (Manga, Sci-fi, fantasy), Writing (Original fiction, poetry), Creating (Doodling, arts and crafts), Building Model Kits, Role Playing, Watching Anime.
Have or would you give time and money to a charity?
I have given my time and money in the past. I feel like perhaps donating such things(I prefer to donate time to money) is truly a way to feel like you've done something helpful for those who may be less fortunate than yourself, but I don't do it very often, simply because I'm not really the sort that feels like I want to meddle in things like ths.
What is the one thing you would most like to accomplish?
Most important thing to me right now is to get into and finish college. I've been waiting years to finally be able to get into a solid and stable sort of situation so I could finally go after this goal. Right now it's one of the most important things in my life. Also..partly, just to prove to my family that I will indeed amount to something. I'd love to be the first College grad..
Who is your role model?
I honestly don’t have one.
What trait most annoys you about other people?
In general..I’d just have to say that people annoy me and that’s all there is to it. Human nature annoys me, so people annoy me. Lies, backstabbing, self-centeredness, lack of respect, the whole “It’s me or nothing” sort of mindset. Hypocritical actions and narrow-mindedness.
What do you want to do for a living?
Become a Psychologist. Why? Well, I have a sort of odd "people sense", where I can learn a fair amount about them simply by spending time in their company, not even a lot of time..perhaps a couple of hours. I also have dealt with my fair share of poor Psychologists in the past and I want to use my ability and my knowledge to help people like myself, misunderstood and more then a little off-beat.
If your friend was attacked (by a person, animal, or (in the magic world) beast), what would you do?
First make sure that the animal was gone, then check on my friend, see if there was anything to do and then do my best to get proper help for him/her.
Would you ever use an Unforgivable Curse for any reason?
I don’t really think you can honestly justify doing so, so no, I wouldn’t.
What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities?
Good Listener - I'm happy to sit and listen to somebody tell me what is wrong, I love to offer advice. People often say it's very easy to talk to me and they feel they can trust me, so I suppose this is sort of a natural skill.
Hard Worker - Give me a task I will work my hardest at it. I always do my best to go above and beyond what is called on for me to do, simply because I feel that if I don't make an effort to do my best, then the whole thing really wasn't worthwhile.
Creative - Hard to really explain this one..I suppose maybe it's just something I like to think of as being. I greatly enjoy writing and world-building, as well as random artsty type things and providing inspiration for those who lack it. I'm very good at coming up with ideas and thinking of new ways to do things.
Logical - I tend to spend a great deal of my time sitting around and thinking of things. I make my moves on what I feel will be the best course of action in the long run and I try to keep emotions out of influencing my decisions overly much.
Laid back - Just like it say, over all..I just don't really care too much about things one way or another. My attitude towards most things is simply "If it doesn't hurt you or anybody else, then it's OK." and I stand by that as sort of a motto.
What do you think are your top five weaknesses or worst qualities?
Stubborn - I don't think I need to go into it..it speaks for it's-self. How am I stubborn? I hate to say "I just am" but..hmm. Well, I tend to stand by my choices and actions, no matter what people say to try and dissuade me, I usually will ignore it. I'm set in my ways and thoughts, even if I know it may be wrong.
Opinionated - Always speaking my mind about anything. If you ask me, I'll tell you how I feel about it. Even if I don't have real thoughts on it one way or another, I'm likely to wander off and come back with some later. My opinions also tend to be somewhat harsh..
Brash - As much as I try very hard to be logical, human nature is what drives us all and I tend to forget myself sometimes. I rush headlong into a lot of things without thinking, and I'm very set at seeing them through, even if the choices are sudden.
Too Direct - I'll tell anybody at any time exactly what I feel about them. I usually don't pad out my thoughts or feelings with needless niceties. I'm very sharp and hard-edged in this manner and my direct way of thinking often leads me into trouble(Like this thing being really short..)
Not very social- By choice I keep myself away from most others. Though I am good with people, I truly prefer to be alone, or with one or two people that I feel I can trust above all others. I keep to myself, and I don't like to be bothered. I'm not good at making "small talk" and I tend to shy away from more social things like parties or the like.
Define in your own words the following key traits:
Courage: The ability to handle a difficult situation calmly and well, rising above the expectations of others to prove your own worth when faced with a disadvantage or challenge.
Loyalty: Being honest and true to someone no matter what happens. Being willing to help them in whatever way possible even at the expense of your own self comfort.
Intelligence: Ability to learn and retain knowledge better then most. Knowing more about various things then most do, ease in learning.
Ambition: The need or urge to find yourself at a certain goal. The drive to get somewhere that you may not otherwise be able to without it.

What house do you think DOESN'T fit you? I don’t honestly believe I would do well in Slytherin, simply because I lack the ambition that seems to be the overwhelming drive of the house.

I'd apologize for the shortness of this..but, I'm not really good at writing big lengthy reasons for my thinking. x-x I hope it's at least a bit better.
