1/29/2019 0 Comments The Proust Questionnaire__1.__What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Finding gratitude in everything and thriving in a perfect harmony of your life. That would have to be my perfect idea of happiness. __2.__What is your greatest fear? My greatest fear would be having absolutely no one and being utterly alone. Although solitude can be a beautiful self-exploration opportunity, once you have too much solidarity it can become a very sad lonely existence. __3.__What is the trait you most deplore in yourself? I hate the trait that I have of taking things too personally (like if I her someone laughing is it directed at me? If my friend is upset, is it something I could have done differently?) When in reality, none of it has anything to do with me. I’m aware that I do this and am working on it but still absolutely hate it about myself. __4.__What is the trait you most deplore in others? Ignorance and desensitization to actual catastrophic real-world threats of our planet and the living things on it, like the ice caps, how horrifyingly awful our oceans are, the increasing levels of species extinction, the natural disasters happening all the time that no one knows about, ect. __5.__Which living person do you most admire? My God Father; both of my biological parents aren’t active in my life. My God Father is by far my only actual parental figure and I admire him for so many reasons. He is by far the smartest individual I’ve ever met, he evaluates things in ways I never would even consider. He absolutely shapes who I am and who I want to be and opens my mind to new ways of thinking. Also he never gives up, even after losing his only son he has so much drive in life to keep pushing and reaching for the mountain tops, because if we don’t give this life all we have we are doing a huge disservice to the ones we love& lost. __6.__What is your greatest extravagance? My greatest extravagance would be music festivals, because they are expensive but having those bonding and learning experiences with people you care about and new people you meet at these (but become friends with instantly.) is so important and beautiful, where everyone just loves each other and has no pre-conceived notions about anything about you. Also, I have a really bad addiction to buying clothes. __7.__What is your current state of mind? Content/ open-minded is my current state. I’m finally back in school after 5 years of procrastination. __8.__What do you consider the most overrated virtue? Blind Faith in religion. I respect people having spiritual beliefs, but I don’t think blindly following any religion without learning other ones or discovering what spiritual beliefs you truly believe for yourself is a good virtue. __9.__On what occasion do you lie? When I stall the car I’ll usually lie. Even though its clearly obvious that I did I just won’t make eye contact and say, “nope, wasn’t me!”. __10.__What do you most dislike about your appearance? I feel like I look unapproachable to a lot of people; not many people ever come up to me and just start conversation. Also, I dislike how indented my eyes are, a lot and for some reason I hate my mouth. __11.__Which living person do you most despise? My old boss Pat from a dog boarding place in Jersey. He kept a husky on four “doggie Klonopins” a day and when he found it hard to find her a forever home, he seriously considered the idea of just putting her down. __12.__What is the quality you most like in a man? Maturity is the most important quality in men, in my opinion. Its hard to have an engaging conversation when they can’t maturely converse on topics. __13.__What is the quality you most like in a woman? The empowering energies that we have. I believe you can strongly feel it when women support and love each other. __14.__Which words or phrases do you most overuse? The phrases I use the most are, “Literally”, “ahuh sista girl”, “say less”, and “namsayin”. These are essentially like my auto pilot words. __15.__What or who is the greatest love of your life? Joshua Lee Borofsky; my first love whom I intended on sharing my life with, but he has passed on. __16.__When and where were you happiest? Age 18-20 was the happiest time of my life, I just graduated highschool, met my first love, and moved to New York. The physical place I feel the happiest is Arizona. __17.__Which talent would you most like to have? Hand eye coordination because I have none. It would be nice to have the ability of throwing and catching things. __18.__If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? That I am an introvert when I meet people. I wish I could put myself out there more. __19.__What do you consider your greatest achievement? Going back to school after being out for 5 years. It was just time for me to bite the bullet. __20.__If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what would it be? I would probably come back as a fox. I pulled my cards with a medium and determined a fox is my main spirit animal. __21.__Where would you most like to live? I would love to live in Arizona or New Zealand. They are both such beautiful places. __22.__What is your most treasured possession? My pup, Keira Mia is m most treasured possession. She is a 2 year old Shiba Inu. __23.__What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery? The lowest depth of misery would have to be in my opinion, when someone genuinely does not care at all about themself or know their worth, self-love always comes first before you can care about anything else you need to love yourself and know you have worth. __24.__What is your favorite occupation? World traveler would be the best occupation. Getting paid to see the world, yes please! __25.__What is your most marked characteristic? My most marked characteristic is that I have pretty good balance. I do yoga a lot and that obviously helps. __26.__What do you most value in your friends? I value their loyalty, love, and artistic abilities. My friends are all so loving and inviting and majority of them produce art in some way, & they are all so talented. __27.__Who are your favorite writers? Billie Ellish or Stevie Nicks are my favorite writers. They both write such beautiful, poetic music. __28.__Who is your hero of fiction? Louise belcher from Bobs Burgers is my fictional hero. She schemes so hard and is hilarious I aspire to be as great as she is one day. __29.__Which historical figure do you most identify with? I guess Emilia Airheart, because she wanted to explore the unknown. I also want to venture out into the world and learn and explore. __30.__Who are your heroes in real life? I would have to say my god dad. He’s so inspiring and helps me thrive so much in life. __31.__What are your favorite names? The name I like best for a boy is Dillon. The name I like best for a girl is Charlie. __32.__What is it that you most dislike? That I lost my best friend in life. I never imagined I’d truly ever lose him in this life. __33.__What is your greatest regret? Either not seeing my family more or not going back to school sooner. I’ve been out of school for years but finally bit the bullet and wanted to better myself. __34.__How would you like to die? Painlessly would be the ideal way to die. Passing over should be a peaceful process. __35.__What is your motto? We don’t go back, only forward. You must progress to thrive in life and going backwards won’t get you there.
