1. Where would you most like to live?
I really really want to go to Brazil at one point. Or Germany.
2. What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery?
Talking my own mother out of committing suicide.
And then, in more general terms, being cold and having wet feet.
3. Who are your favorite writers?
Alice Sebold, J.K. Rowling, and Lois Lowry.
4. Which historical figure do you most identify with?
Hmm, no comment really.
5. What is your most treasured possession?
My family and best friends. And my Pentax camera has a soft spot in my heart as well. Other than that, I have a back scratcher that I got when I was 5 and has done me very well since.
6. What are your favorite names?
I love the name Austin. And Brookes. And Charley (for a girl).
7. What is one selfish thing you would like to do before you die?
Shut my family out of my life. Yet it wouldn't be possible what-so-ever.
14.Which words or phrases do you most overuse?
"O herro". I'm sure the asian impersonation died years ago after Team America came out. I also have the tendancy to say "ty" instead of thank you.
15.What or who is the greatest love of your life?
Astronomy and math. It's what makes me happiest because I know I'm good at it.
16. When and where were you happiest?
I try to work it in wherever possible. I’m generally pretty content, barring some ranting.
I confess that I sometimes find it easier to be happier in abstract. I look back on past memories and find happiness there. But in most cases, I prefer my warm bed on a Sunday afternoon.
17. Which talent would you most like to have?
I would love to be able to sing. Well, I have taken singing lessons for a number of years, but I'd like to be able to have a voice like Dido or Beyonce, maybe even Christina Agruliera.
18. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I would maintain my motivation better in the face of adversity. In other words, get off my lazy ass and make things happen.
19. What do you consider your greatest achievement?
Math. Overcoming (or some-what overcoming) my disfunctional, over-sized family.
20. If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what would it be?
I’d like to be an esteemed cat. Or some sort of bird. A bear could also be a definite choice (because the solitude in a beautiful forest sounds lovely).
7. What is your current state of mind?
I’m a little let down to find out it’s Sunday night and I have to be at school in a few short hours. I'm feeling lighter as the medication slowly starts to show its full benefits. But as the days wear on, my lack of sleep is not helping one bit.
8. What do you consider the most overrated virtue?
Everything in moderation. Especially moderation.
People who bang on about their virtues generally aren’t as virtuous as they’d like to think.
9. On what occasion do you lie?
If anything, I lie to myself more than anyone. And these occasions aren't rare either. Generally speaking, if I don't want to believe it, I'll tell myself different.
10. What do you most dislike about your appearance?
I think I try to hard. But really I try to look nice and presentable. I CANNOT stand my eyebrows. They can burn in a fiery pit along with celery.
11. Which living person do you most despise?
I'm not a hateful person and I do not hold grudges. But some people just aren't my cup of tea.
12. What is the quality you most like in a man?
Intellect and humour. Nice smile. Nice eyes. But when a guy treats his mother well, it's a huge turn on.
13. What is the quality you most like in a woman?
Wit and humor. I like to think of myself as a funny person and I try to surround myself with those kinds of people.
. What is your idea of perfect happiness?
I’m not sure that is a practical concept. With the sweet, so comes the sour, or life would turn into a flat line, surely. But as far as my fantasy of "perfect happiness", I would think that I would fall passionately and madly in love with the perfect man, while I become the valedictorian of my school and grow into myself gracefully.
2. What is your greatest fear?
Losing my mother. Losing my father. Losing people close to me. I can't help but think that once I'm alone, or feel alone, that no one will ever think to call me when a thunderstorm comes rolling into town.
3. What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?
Giving up if excellence isn’t immediate. My insecurity. My inability to keep promises to myself.
4. What is the trait you most deplore in others?
The inability to spell definitely correctly. Ignorance.
5. Which living person do you most admire?
In some aspects my mother. People I know, who are dealing with life in the best way they know how.
I really really want to go to Brazil at one point. Or Germany.
