If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
If I could change one thing about the world, I would change discrimination. I don't understand how people can belittle their peers based on the color of their skin or where they are from. We are all equal and it just bothers me, and makes me sad, that some people are in the mindset that their race, or sex, is better than others.
What makes a person respectable?
To me, someone who is respectable is someone who also respects others. Someone who is selfless - thinking about others before they think of themselves. Someone who doesn't really worry about what others think(confident in who they are) and stands up for what they believe is right. Someone who works hard and tries to make the world a better place. And lastly, someone who just loves on people no matter who they are, where they're from, and what they do.
What do you look for in a friend?
I look for someone who is trustworthy - who I can share intimate issues with and know they won't go post it on a billboard. Someone who is loyal, caring, and shares some of the same interests as I do. Someone who I can communicate well with, and mostly, someone who I can simply feel comfortable with, laugh and have a fun time with!
What are your hobbies?
My main hobby would be singing - its my joy! Because of that fact, I listen to music like all the time. I'm one of those annoying people that sings to ever song they know... no matter if I'm alone or in a crowd full of people! I also love reading, dancing, and I'm a big fan of surfing the web :)
Have or would you give time and money to a charity?
In a heart beat! I haven't really had the opportunity to really help out, time-wise, with charities but I definitely try to give money whenever I can. For example: the other day I was working and this man came up to me selling a booklet with discounts for certain restaurants and stores... it was only $5 and I honestly probably won't use the thing, but it was for orphanages, and children(especially those without parents) are very dear to my heart. I hope to eventually sponsor a child, or more, from different countries and if I ever become rich(ha!) I know that a lot of my money will go to helping out charities.
What is the one thing you would most like to accomplish?
I want to be in a movie... I don't care how big or how little the part is, I just want to experience it! I want to know what its like, and if that means that I only get to be an extra, than I will be quite content with that.
Who is your role model?
My role model is my best friend Ashley. Sure, she is about a year younger than me but she has gone through 10 times more hardship and trials in her life than most people and has come out of each as the victor. She is so strong, so faithful, and so loving... I can't help but look up to her and try to be a bit like her.
What trait most annoys you about other people?
I can get very annoyed when people don't follow through with what they agree on. People need to stop being such slackers and start being diligent in accomplishing what they set out to do.
What do you want to do for a living?
My number one true dream? To be an actress. Ever since I can remember I have wanted to be in a movie! But because of different situations, I have gone another course and am instead pursuing the music industry. I never thought I could make it as a singer until recently. So with God's help... we'll see how it goes!
If your friend was attacked (by a person, animal, or (in the magic world) beast), what would you do?
I would muster up all my strength and courage to do whatever it takes to save my friend. I am an extremely loyal person when it comes to my family and friends - no one messes with them! If it was an extreme situation, I would die for them without a second thought.
Would you ever use an Unforgivable Curse for any reason?
Unfortunately, yes I would... if one of my loved ones, or myself, was in danger and I had exhausted every other possible way to save us, then I would use an Unforgivable Curse... but that being the very last resort.
What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities?
1. Leadership - I believe that I have strong leadership qualities. Honestly, I don't like being a leader sometimes but I find that often I will have to step up to the plate and get out of my comfort zone because no one else will! My friends call me the "General" because I do what it takes to get something done and won't mess around - won't even let them mess around and get off track! hehe
2. Loyalty - I feel that I am a very loyal person. Sure, there are moments when I don't get along with family members or close friends, but who doesn't? That does not mean that I wouldn't stick up for them, or sacrifice something of great importance, even my life, for them.
3. Listening - I think that over the years, I have become a good listener. I'm the type of person who likes to observe my surroundings and the conversations that people are into. I'm not an extremely talkative girl, so my listening skills have really had the chance to develop and enhance.
4. Music ability - I am a singer(currently recording an album - w00t!) as well as a piano player. Music is my life and this talent that God has given me is my joy and I strive to grow and learn more about them everyday.
5. Book smart - as much as I would like to be street smart... I'm not. I am one of those book smart girls. No, not a genius by far, but I am one of those people who didn't really have to study a lot to pass tests with good grades(so maybe I'm just a good test taker? :p)... that didn't come until college haha Anyway, I am proud of what I have achieved, although I could have done more, but I know that I have definitely been blessed with the ability to be a good student.
What do you think are your top five weaknesses or worst qualities?
1. Shyness - I blame it on being home schooled(jk), but I have forever been a shy girl. Its hard for me to talk to people I just met unless they initiate the conversation. Fortunately, through high school and the jobs that I have had, they have forced me to step out of my comfort zone and I am not nearly as shy as I once was, but there are still times when I'm overwhelmed and don't know what to say.
2. Procrastination - I swear, I am the queen of this! Whether it be starting a paper for school, or simply doing my laundry, I always wait to do things until the last moment >_<
3. Being too trusting - I am what you would call gullible. I trust people way too easily and people seem to take advantage of me for that. Yes, trusting people is a good thing, but I think there definitely needs to be a fine line between trusting and skeptical, and I seriously need to find that line because I am always getting "lied" to because of my gullibility. lol
4. Grumpyness - Yes, I will be honest, I tend to be a bit grumpy. Really, its not that bad but I am so weird in the fact that if I don't get at least 8 hours of sleep, I will be in a bad mood - at least in the morning(I'm not a morning person at all!). Thankfully, due to my work schedule, I do end up getting at least 8 hours of sleep, so y'all don't have to worry!
5. People pleaser - Some might not think this a bad thing, but when it gets to the point that I will sacrifice what I want to please the people around me, and then later am miserable because of it, thats just not cool. I recently realized this fact about me, and I am very much trying to stop being a door mat to people because it is really no fun at all.
Define in your own words the following key traits:
Courage: Bravery - having the strength and tenacity to stand up for what, or who, you believe in even if you're the only one who believes.
Loyalty: Staying true to your heart - sticking up for and being devoted to those you love, as well as for certain ideals that you live by, no matter what the case may be.
Intelligence: Having in depth knowledge - whether someone is book smart or street smart, being familiar and understanding your surroundings.
Ambition: Wanting something more - having dreams, goals, and aspirations and not letting anything get in your way to achieve them. Doing anything and everything it takes to get to the next level.
