sorry these were short3
I hope these are better... I wasn't sure how long this should be... I guess I am still not answering right because I am still getting no votes... I don't know what else to put in here... I am a to the point person when asked a question... I don't go into long details, think its a waste of time for people to hear me drone on and on... I am afraid I am not going to get sorted because I don't know what else to say in this... I'm sorry :(
If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
Ignorance and racism would be abolished, once this is gone I think people would work together better to correct things like hunger and poverty. I believe ignorance is the true source of all evil. If ignorange is removed people will learn to work together better, thus solving the other major issues of war, famine, disease, poverty, and homelessness.
What makes a person respectable?
Honesty... someone who is Honest must be respected... whether you like their opinion or not you must give them the respect deserved for being honest about their views. People who lie and manipulative wear masks to hid their true nature, thus making them not be respectable.
What do you look for in a friend?
Sense of humor and dependability... I need my friends to be there for me like I would be there for them... I need them to be sarcastic, witty, and funny... if people take things too seriously in life then life is no fun.
What are your hobbies?
I love to read... I read anything and everything I can get my hands on. Through reading people can go anywhere, do anything, be anybody... I love movies, they are another source of escaping from the hum drum nature of life... we all need a little spice:) I love cooking... its a great way to bring people together for fun... I love to write poetry... my poetry is usually very short.. I am a kind of to the point type person and have a tendency to ramble only when it is a topic I feel very strongly against or for... I like a good debate... not an argument, but an intelligent exchange of ideas...
Have or would you give time and money to a charity?
yes I have worked at Dismas house as part of Interact in HS... the were a home for people who had just been paroled and were looking for a fresh start... we would go and cook them dinner and just talk to them... it was a nice change for them... and have donated to the Fund for the Arts ... I feel that Art is very important to help people learn and grow... the only way to insure that it is there for future generations is to support it... help it grow... bring people to it to see how wonderful a good play or a concert can be...
What is the one thing you would most like to accomplish?
to actually pass the Mensa exam in October... I have always wanted to take this test, just to see how well I would do, but I have been to nervous to do it... this year I decided to start taking risks... challenging myself to try new things and go new places... I guess that would be the one thing I would like to accomplish, to try as many new things, meet as many new people, and see as much of this world as I possibly can...
Who is your role model?
It was my friend Scott who passed away... he spoke his mind, was determined, highly intelligent, and never let anyone stand in his way of proving himself... he was also a great friend who would tell you when you were a jerk, but then give you a hug... I always wanted his determination to not be stereotyped and break out of the mold
What trait most annoys you about other people?
the gluttonous nature of humans to consume and own more than they need... we as humans have tendency to take more than we need... others are living in deplorable conditions while we all get more and more and more... if we stopped practing this deadly sin we might be able to help our fellow neighbor more and giv ethem the opportunity to experience all that life has to offer
What do you want to do for a living?
either travel the world as a photographer, write a book, or teach hearing impaired children... I love travelling... there is so much to see and do... I think as a photographer for something like National Geographic I could see more of this world than I could with a normal job... I would be able to meet races of people you wouldn't meet on a normal vacation... I would want to write a book, just to see if I could do it... another one of those challenging myself things that I want to do... or teach hearing impaired children... I have alway been facinated by sign language and I want to be able to help hearing impaired children experience everything they possibly can... to hear music in their own way by louder bass against their seats and lights that flash in time with the music... that would be so rewarding for me...
If your friend was attacked (by a person, animal, or (in the magic world) beast), what would you do?
draw the attention of the person or beast towards me so they could get away... I would do whatever it took to get them to safety... if it meant that I lured it away by any means necessary I would do it... my friends and family are the most important thing to me and I would lay down my life for anyone of them so that they would not have to suffer...
Would you ever use an Unforgivable Curse for any reason?
possibly, but it would have to be a life or death situation... it would be to save someone, but not out of maliciousness... I would only use it if their were no other options.. if it came down to them using it on someone I cared for or me using it one them I would not sit back and watch them murder someone I loved... I think the Unforgivable curse is a necessary evil to protect you and your loved ones from mortal danger.
What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities?
intelligence-I try to use my brain whenever I can outside of normal menial tasks...I try to learn something new and pass it on to others...
kindness, I try to treat everyone the way I want to be treated... to show them respect, compassion, and decency... to help them when they are in need and to pcik them up when they fall..
sense of humor, I try to make everyone laugh and have a good time... laughter can help when other things can't... if someone is feeling blue or a situation seems to tough I try to make them laugh.. although my sense of humor is dry and sarcastic so sometimes my jokes are wasted
determination, thanks to what Scott taught me, I do not let anyone or anything keep me from doing what's right... I will not sit idly by and watch things... I will be a part of it and no matter what happens I will not let anyone stop me...
and eagerness to learn more about the world
What do you think are your top five weaknesses or worst qualities?
impatient... I don't like waiting for things... it is really hard and is something I have been working on
my sarcasm, though it is also a strength, it can be a weakness because it may be misunderstood or misplaced in context
I can be incredibly shy... if I don't know what to say or feel awkward I clam up until I know what everyone is like... I don't want to end up offending anyone or sounding like an idiot...
I really am not quite sure what to put here... I have a problem when people talk down to me, I get my feelings hurt a little to easily... I take things for granted and they are gone before I know it... I have a poor self image and can be self depricating... I try to hid in corners when I don't know anyone... I curse too much... I watch too much tv... I practice about at least three of the seven deadly sins... I am too judgemental sometimes... I jumpt to conclusions frequently... I put everyones needs in front of mine... I consider my opinon last... I don't know what else I should say here... sorry:(
