1) What is your idea of perfect happiness? My idea of happiness is having perfect self confidence, and the wellbeing of the ones I care about around me, without the people that have showed me how to be happy I don't know what I would do. My other idea of perfect happiness is to have someone to talk to, someone to care for, my whole life never revolved around anyone but myself and the others who cared for me, to have no one to lean on makes it difficult at times to really get by, someone that would benefit just the same as I would from being around them. 2) What is your greatest fear? My greatest fear is letting go from responsibilities and having them pile up on me, stressful situations, and death, all of the above makes my skin crawl. Its the fear of one day slipping and having to keep up with unmanageable work to the point I give up. Or one day waking up to find out that I am no longer with the ones I care so deeply for. 3) What is the trait you most deplore in yourself? My inability to remain organized when I need to be and the procrastination of things i need to get done. I am not the type to willingly become motivated if Its not something that interests me. I wish I could become more focused on tasks at hand no matter what they are. 4) What is the trait you most deplore in others? Dishonesty, and disrespect, they play a huge role in everyone's lives and becoming a liar does not get you far in life. Later in this blog it asks you (question 9) what occasion would I lie and my answer there only fits to very specific events, even then I am not happy that I say something untruthful to someone for them to believe one thing when something completely different is truly happening. 5) Which living person do you most admire? I most admire my Mom, Dad and Brother, they have been by my side my entire life. My connection to them has grown so much since I was ypunger and the bond I have shared with them has become so strong that I cant see anyone of them not in my life, they will forever and always be. 6) What is your greatest extravagance? My greatest extravagance is my passion for 3D printing and my passion for fixing and making electronics. Its not very common but its my passion to say the least, since I was a little kid playing with legos I always knew my calling was in the field of robotics and technology. 3D printing then became my focus when I was around 14 ever since if been inspired by its possibilities. 7) What is your current state of mind? Stressed, and worried for my family, severe family issues have been brought up and we are all not taking it well, Family is such an important part of living happy. When times of grief come through, the remaining members of the family are brought closer together to help each other in hard times. 9) On what occasion do you lie? When it's best for the person to not know the truth, not that I condone lying, but situations where one person could benefit from not knowing. Such as, if someone is told that a person they care about is doing okay, when they really are not, to make that one person feel less stressed about the situation. 10) What do you most dislike about your appearance? My Acne and my smile, i do not like it because its looks as if i am trying to force a smile out, it never looks natural. My smile has always somewhat made me self conscious, I don't know why, but I just wish a had a better smile. 11) Which living person do you most despise? I have no true enemy, i try to be friends with anyone rather than look at them as a threat. Along with this the golden rule is a big part of how I make relations to a person, I will always treat someone with respect, unless they give me a reason not to. 12) What is the quality you most like in a man? Respectful and humble. Somone who presents themselves as a trusting person and will respect decisions you choose to make and help you through them, never bragging nor intimidating. 13) What is the quality you most like in a woman? Nature lover, someone who enjoys talking about life and everyday struggles. 14) Which words or phrases do you most overuse? “I don't know” (IDK), It's become so common in society to use the term and its somewhat annoying to an extent. 15) What or who is the greatest love of your life? I haven't found them yet. 16)When and where were you happiest? Summer 2017 on a Norwegian cruise to Jamaica and the British virgin islands. 17)Which talent would you most like to have?
