(no subject)
If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be? By making everyone realise that religion cannot be used as an excuse "it's god's will" or "God told me to do it" or doing something in the name of God is a lazy and dishonest reason to do anything. I'm not saying I'd get rid of religion because it has it's place, but people shouldn't be allowed to hide behind it.
What makes a person respectable?I think that to achieve any sense of respectability you a) need to respect yourself for a start b) show respect to others and then b) have some sort of drive or goal in life so that others will respect you. I have little respect for someone who doesn't want to do anything in life or can't be bothered, etc.
What do you look for in a friend? Honesty; i'm talking complete, to the point, call it the way you see it honesty. Some call it being blunt, I call it telling it how it is! If i look fat in something, for God's sake TELL ME! I'll love you for it, I swear.
What are your hobbies? I love spending my spare time learning other languages. And not just my spare time, I've done it all my school life, from primary school through to university. Being able to communicate fairly decently in 3 languages has it's advantages...one of my favourites being able to listen in on conversations on the train when people think no one else understands ;)
Have or would you give time and money to a charity? Money yes, time no...i buy the raffle tickets, sponsor a few kids but never gotten down to the nitty gritty. I think some day I would like to though.
What is the one thing you would most like to accomplish? Financial stability...I want to be able to support my travelling habit and support it well.
Who is your role model? My father is one person I look up to I think. He's successful and a good provider but he has his faults like everyone. I don't have a specific role model, just people I admire I guess. Anyone who is succesful in life, and if they can do it by doing something they love, well they have my deepest respect...and envy.
What trait most annoys you about other people? ignorance...but more than that. I can accept that someone people have a lower IQ than others, that's not what i mean. It's people being ignorant about things they shouldn't be. Like, current affairs; it's relaly not that hard to watch the news or pick up a paper and have an opinion on things. Saying that you don't care doesn't cut it for me with world events...the world is everyone's home, have a care!
What do you want to do for a living?I'm a lowly Food and Bev attendant at the moment in a big name hotel...One day, i'd like to be the manager of a hotel in the same group.
If your friend was attacked (by a person, animal, or (in the magic world) beast), what would you do?Try to protect/save them...at least I hope I would. One would hope that fear could be overcome in such a situation, but having not been in the position myself...
Would you ever use an Unforgivable Curse for any reason? I don't think I could torture anyone but in regards to the last question, if i had to, I guess I might at least CONSIDER AK and i'd like to think that I could use my charm to coerce without using Imperius ;)
What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities? Intelligent, driven, my ability to learn languages, dedicated, loving
What do you think are your top five weaknesses or worst qualities? tactless, bad loser, inability to accept failure, obssessive personality, aaaand...i can be a bit of a tightarse ;)
Define in your own words the following key traits:
Courage: I guess, there's the obvious part about facing your fears, etc. But i think it's also knowing when to stand down and accept the consequences.
Loyalty: Standing by someone's ground no matter what
Intelligence: is something innate, you can't learn it in a book...you can add to it of course, through experience and leanring etc, but it's something that's there already
Ambition: Having the drive to get where you want to be and not letting the ups and downs get in your way.
