Strong points:
I am completely independent.I can get things done and sorted on my own,as well as to a high standard.I am intelligent,creative and inventive so a lot of the time I don't actually have to put much time or effort into something for it to look good.Work in that respect comes very easy to me.However (this should really be put in my weaknesses section),I often act stubborn and irrationally towards receiving any help, even though it might be the more intelligent option.
I would class myself as intelligent as I said before, and can come up with decisions or plans on the spot.I am a very quick thinker in that respect, my mind is always turned on.I have a very persistent and determined personality.If I have an idea, I will make sure I see it through until the end.Even if it's wrong (which I then probably wouldn't admit to anyway.) So in that respect I am also quite ambitious, I like to push the boundries.I therefore I have a very open minded and progressive outlook on life, and will try anything.I will speak my opinions even if they offend, I am fearless.Though I always give balanced arguments.
My loyalty.I would never dream of casting out someone who I have the nerve to call a friend.Loyalty is such an important part of relationships.Whether those relationships involve friends,family or lovers.Im proud of the fact I can stay loyal to those important to me and causes/ambitions/ideas/opinions that are important to me.However, if someone abuses my trust just once they will never have it again.
Weak points:
Having ridiculously high standards as I do proves a problem.A lot of the time even I can't satisfy my own standards, so it is very difficult for other people to do so.Whilst I can accept that someone has done their best I always expect a level of work from someone else of which I could achieve myself.Which does make me rather frustrated, leaving me to become very angry with people often for no good reason.
I am a complete perfectionist. I believe that anything less then what I consider to be perfect,is completely unacceptable. Which,yes in a sense is a good thing as it can drive you to do your very best. However,it can deeply hinder you as well. As I have found out on numerous occasions.It also makes me appear to have a rather large ego and come across as arrogant.Which I know are bad traits, but do not necessarily bother me.
I am also extremely self-destructive. Sometimes when a piece of work isn't up the the standard I intended,I will gladly rip it to shreds rather than give it in despite the amount of time spent on it.This obviously relates to the perfectionism as well.If one little thing is wrong with something I usually act as if it's the end of the world.
I also have very much two sides to my personality.One that everyone sees,and one that well...people would be horrified to know about.Which is probably the real me.I am selfish,sadistic and vulgar.Which I have come to terms with but will never admit to anyone else.Infact I become deeply offended if it's even suggested.Everything I say seems to be laced with sarcasm, so a lot of people don't really know where they stand with me.
I cannot stand being lead my someone who is unwilling to get the task done to a high standard.I myself have high standards and feel that if I am not the one taking lead everything will be one big mess.I suppose that could suggest I have a rather controlling personality but I am honestly the majority of the time surrounded by people who just are not as...capable as myself.It frustrates me as I like to get things done well.If we do it my way,we as a group will succeed and everyones happy.However as I said before that can piss some people off as it comes across that I am dismissing their ideas and input.
Pet Peeves: When someone doesn't hold a door open for you but could obviously see you coming.I think a lack in manners is a lack in basic common sense.Humans are suposedly intelligent beings, I just wish they would start acting like it
Hobbies: drawing/painting,seeing live music,reading,writing
Talents: artistic
Your biggest fear: Lifts (elevators).Seriously.

Extroverted or introverted? Extroverted.
Outgoing or shy? mmmm outgoing.
Emotional or collected? Emotional, but not in the 'weepy' sense.Emotional in the 'I'll rip your goddamn head off!' sense.

Leader or follower? Leader obviously.
Compassionate or just? Just.
Friendly or abrasive? Friendly, but I can be very abrasive.In fact, I believe I think I'm more friendly then I actually am.
What color do you think relates most to you and why? Black.Because it has all these connotations that I believe relate to me in some way.Power,mystery,fear,evil,unhappiness, depth,style,sadness,remorse and anger.
Can you put your trust in people? I can, but I don't expect them to then go and abuse my trust in anyway.If they do so, well then they have an enemy for life.

What's most important to you? Acheiving my goals,making something of myself,my mum, brother and closest friend.
Deadly Sin you relate to the most and why? Very difficult,shit it's like a three way tie between pride,sloth,greed and wrath.I really cannot elaborate as to why as it simply 'is'.
Deadly Sin you don't relate to at all and why? Gluttony or envy.Gluttony could be linked to greed as it implies excess.But to me gluttony is not something I can relate to as generally I dislike food.
Number one goal in life: To find myself in a job that will have me set, financially, for life and that I enjoy.
Favorite Weiss Kreuz character? Why? Farfarello.I think...it may just have been love at first sight? I am attracted to nutters.I find him to me and interesting, yet exciting character.
Least favorite Weiss Kreuz character? Why? Kapitel Omi or Yohji.Purely because,at this moment, I feel the least for them.
If you were given the chance to become one of the characters for a short period of time, who would you choose? Why? Again, Farfarello.Aaah to feel no pain.
