(no subject)
If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be? That the human race as a whole would start being more friendly toward one another, that all prejudices would be gone, people were more respectful of others, and that people accepted others without critical judgments.
What makes a person respectable? The one thing that really stands out for me is when someone stands up for another person. It takes courage to do it, especially if the people your standing up to are your own friends. It truly shows character.
What do you look for in a friend? Someone exciting and wild, who is always looking for fun and adventure in life. Someone who is nice, caring, and respectful of others feelings. And someone who is crazy... They have odd quirks about them, do really strange things, and always say really weird stuff (I find I identify most with these people).
What are your hobbies? Theatre, Musical Theatre, Music
Have or would you give time and money to a charity? Yes, I have given time and money to charity before, and I do it quite often. I usually jump at the opportunity to do helpful things, and I always feel guilty when I see someone less fortunate than I. My favorite thing is when I walk around the city and give my change to homeless people, people who need money, and musicians playing on the street.
What is the one thing you would most like to accomplish? If it's accomplish in my life, then become a successful actress. When I say successful, I don't mean rich or famous, I mean being able to live a generally good life by being on stage for a living.
Who is your role model? Marilyn Monroe. I think she was the most wonderful woman in history. She was beautiful... but naturally- she wasn't some sickly thin, extreme make up, no-one-looks-like-that model that you see in magazines nowadays. Despite her gorgeous appearance, she was also rather intelligent. She was a wonderful actress. My favorite movie of hers is "Some Like It Hot." I do believe she made an imprint in history on the American society... (I could go on and on about her, but I won't. Not tonight.)
What trait most annoys you about other people? Close minded people. It bothers me so bad when people are prejudice and impertinent to something for their own reasons, and overstate their own opinions different subject matters, even though they might offend many people.
What do you want to do for a living? See the question on what I would most like to accomplish.
If your friend was attacked (by a person, animal, or (in the magic world) beast), what would you do? I would do my best to help them get out of the situation so that they don't get hurt. If I couldn't help I would call someone to come and try to help.
Would you ever use an Unforgivable Curse for any reason? 100% NO. No one deserves that, no matter who you are.
What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities? 1. My passiveness. I am a very passive person, sometimes even too passive, but I still am proud of it. 2. My acting. I do not wish to sound conceited, but out of all my hobbies, this is the one I am best at. 3. My modesty. I dislike when people are to centered around themselves. 4. My originality. I don't flow with the crowd, and for this I am grateful because uniformity can get dull and boring. 5. My oddness/craziness. I feel it adds a bit of zest to life.
What do you think are your top five weaknesses or worst qualities? 1. My self-esteem. Some people say that it's very low. 2. My physical features. They are not too wonderful at all. 3. My lack of academic smarts. I find it's very difficult to get into colleges and other places I may want to go. 4. My cowardice. I am not very brave, and I find it difficult to stand up to people. 5. Nostalgia. I don't sleep much.
Define in your own words the following key traits:
Courage: "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the understanding that something is more important than fear" - The Princess Diaries 2... The only reason I put this quote in is because I could not agree more. With courage, you can still have fear, but the importance of the thing you must do drives you to do a courageous act... Possibly something you never thought you could do.
Loyalty: Loyalty is staying true and faithful to a friend, boyfriend and/or girlfriend, family and whoever else puts their trust into you.
Intelligence: To succeed, you must have all aspects of intelligence. There is the kind of intelligence you learn in school- math problems, great authors, dates in history, etc. And then there is the kind of intelligence you learn from friends and family- love, friendship, relationships, etc. Lastly there is the kind of intelligence you learn from experience- hope, trust, the importance of things in life, etc. Though one may be strong on one of these areas, it does not mean that he/she is strong in another. All aspects of intelligence are needed to flourish in life's greatness.
Ambition: Ambitions are so important in life. They're what you base your dreams off of, and what drives you to follow them.

What house do you think DOESN'T fit you? Gryffindor, because I'm really not very brave at all.
