Are you open to cross-gender votes? Certainly
1. Please list three positive traits you possess and why you chose them.
I'm a fairly confident person - I like to think that I'm good at presenting myself, and I know and accept both my strengths and weaknesses. I'm also pretty reflective: I don't do things without thinking them through, and I'm drawn to philosophy because I'm sometimes prone to overthinking :p Finally, I'd say that I'm a pretty interesting person to talk to. Given that I have a wide variety of interests, I think I can converse on an equally wide variety of subjects, so I'm probably a good person to invite to a dinner party!
2. Please list three negative traits you possess and why you chose them.
Sometimes I forget I'm not the center of the universe, so I tend to be fairly self-centered when it comes to making decisions - between my life and the lives of ten, a hundred, a thousand, a million other people, I'd choose me. I'm also sometimes a little too logical for my own good - I forget that other people have feelings involved in something... I guess you could call it ruthlessness and/or lack of empathy because I see from point A to point B and often draw a straight line without considering the things in between. Finally, I can be a real bitch - I have a tendency of being critical towards everything and not shutting up about that.
3. If you could do something illegal without any consequences whatsoever, would you do it and why or why not?
It would really depend on the circumstances. If that illegal thing could benefit me without negatively affecting anything else, I don't see why not. No consequences means nobody else gets hurt and I don't get caught, right? As long as the benefits outweigh the guilt (and they probably would, given that this illegal action has no consequences whatsoever), I'd do it in a second.
4. If you were faced with a situation where you only had time to make a choice that allowed you to use your intelligence or strength to prevail, which would you choose and why?
Intelligence. I'm pretty weak physically. Though, I mean, it'd obviously depend on the situation. If the situation asks me to lift a boulder (and there are no tools around for me to fashion any contraption to catapault said boulder), then obviously, I'd have to use some physical force to lift that boulder. But in a more ambiguous scenario (e.g. there being some tools around for me to build a simple machine), I'd definitely pick my brains!
5. What do you value above all else and why?
Man is the measure of all things. Without him, we couldn't even assign value to anything in the first place. So man.
6. Would you consider yourself to be more of a leader or a follower and why?
I'd call myself a reluctant leader. I don't like taking charge - it requires effort! - but if I see other people doing a shoddy job, I feel compelled to take action. Plus, at the risk of sounding egotistical, people tend to turn to me for answers whether I like it or not because I have a knack for knowing the right thing to do.
7. If you could choose to possess one trait or physical aspect, what would you pick and why?
I wish I had the power to get off my lazy ass and use my powers for good. I'm incredibly lazy and apathetic at times, and it's difficult to motivate me into action. So I'd wish to be a little more passionate about things.
8. Anything else you would like to add?
Nope :)
9. Please include one picture of yourself, a doll, or a description of yourself.
The most recent one I have :p
