Suppose I somehow knew I had only two weeks to live: Perhaps I would be healthy and know I am to meet some sudden fate, or perhaps I would be quite ill. In any case, I would let a couple people know I was going to disappear, and then ask my partner to be with me, and we would take off. I hate goodbyes and I hate crying in anyone’s presence, and this final commencement would be daunting enough without all the interpersonal and emotional junk. So, if I were healthy my partner and I would go do something for someone – either on an organized level like building for two weeks with Habitat for Humanity, or on some more serendipitous venture like taking whatever cash I could muster and walking up to people in some pleasant surroundings and giving the money away. I think I would like those surroundings to be one of our western National Parks. If I were ill, we would find a hospice that would respect my privacy and desire to be comfortable and quiet.

My community is an ordinary New England town an hour from Boston and an hour from the seacoast. It is filled with ordinary, decent people, and it is peppered with heroes. The heroes are largely unsung: they are the emergency personnel, moms and dads, teachers and funeral directors, town clerks and auto mechanics who will do anything in the world that they can for someone else they can help, coach, or inspire. So I would like to help my community by finding ways to acknowledge and celebrate these good people. I would love to sing their songs and publish their values. I would love for them to know they matter and that together they build a bright future for the town’s children. I would like to help my community by showing people that the most ordinary things are utterly extraordinary, and by drawing together these folks in mutual respect and thankfulness.

My favorite sport is cricket and that is true of most of the people living in India.Though Hockey is the national sport of our nation, cricket has captured the imagination of the people like no other game. Every slum and every lane in the country witnesses cricket in some form or the other. When I was a little boy I used to play cricket on the street with my friends and now as an adult I still have passion for the game. Whenever the Indian cricket team plays an international game, it tops my priority list in the day's schedule. Television has made the game more popular in my country and the World Cup season is a virtual holiday fest for all of us. Calling cricket a religion is not just a cliche but the essence of patriotism in my country.

When I was a little boy I used to collect stamps and coins of various countries and that seemed to be my hobby. Now,as a grown up, I think of more productive ways to spend my time. Slogan writing is my present hobby and I should say that it has been a successful pass time. I have won a lot of prizes by participating in slogan contests, and being a self-employed person working from home, I get enough time to pursue this hobby. Poetry writing is my other hobby and being a creative person, I do enjoy time spent on giving my imagination wings to explore various facets of human relationships. Surely,a hobby is a must for every creative person.

If I were to choose a place for a dream vacation it would certainly be Kerala. Not surprisingly, Kerala is my native place though I reside in the state of Tamil Nadu.The first impression of Kerala to an outsider would be the amount of greenery that abounds here. Most of the land area is covered by coconut trees, rice fields and plantations of all types. The weather is ideal for vacation for most part of the year. If fish is your favorite food,there is a lot to choose from and you get it at cheap rates. The people here are nice and friendly and are generous to a fault. And a fact that may be useful to everyone is that Kerala has the highest literacy rate among all the states of India.

I cannot tell a lie.  I cringe whenever I walk in front on a mirror, but if I had to choose one feature I am obsessed about it would have to be my hair.  It’s the one thing that can handle immediate change and I can always touch it up to look better. Losing weight takes time and acne is unpredictable, but my hair is my go to favorite. My persistent character is always pushing me to look and feel my best.That’s why instead of looking down at my love handles, I look up to my golden wavy locks.

Everyone has two faces.  One face is to face the outerworld and another face is behind them which they usually do not show to any one and others will not come to know such characters throughout our life.  Even I have such character.  I could not tolerate many things such as poverty, corruption, etcetera.  I start to cry when people suffers from accidents, poverty, illiteracy, diseases etcetera.  I would like to help those people as much as I can.  Many of my friends do not know that I cry even for simple things.  I try to hide those characters before others.

My best charactor is my easy going way.  Anger is my enemy and I am very friendly with every one. Many says that I am a very calm girl and likes me because of my friendly way of behaving.  My best physical feature is my eyes.  I have long eye lashes that touches my eye brows dark pupil.  It is the most attractive physical feature in me that other says.  I have a good dressing sense for every occasions that every ones eyes looks at me.  These characters make my life happy without any tension and I lead a very peaceful life.  I have no enemies.  I feel everyone as my brothers and sisters.

My best characteristics would be that I'm extremly easy going and I get along with everyone as long as they are genuinly friendly people. I am told I have a good sence of humor and I'd like to think so too. My best physical features would be my eyes, they are teqnically blue but they are way more grey in my opinion so I love them I think they are really unique and I haven't seen very any people with my eye color so I'm proud of it. My other best physical feature would have to be my hair its thin and naturally blonde like light blonde so I love it I sttraighten it everyday so it adds to how nice it looks I'm extremly proud to say I'm a blonde haired blue eyed smart person!

I have worked at canadian tire, I worked there for one month short of a year's a cashier and stocker, it was a really small store but extremly busy and the workers had a horrible habit of gossiping about other workers which made it a tense and uncomfortable working enviroment. Wouldn't be my funnest job. I have also worked at a comic shop, it was run by my grandpa , he ran it ever since I can remember it was always full of regular customers who seemed more like friends then customers so it was a nice place to be, there was no tension since only 4 people worked there, I personally do don't like comics but I also enjoyed learning about them. That was a wonderful job and if I had the chance I'd work there again. I've also worked at GUESS? Jeans. I hated it there though, the people were all so superficial and fake it made me sick. That was definatly the worst job I've ever had in my life I was never happy or comfortable at work so I quit. I would have to say I liked working at the comic shop the most I loved that store!

To London, England. I've never been there but always wanted to go and still do very much. I absolutly love british accents they are adorable! I also love photography so the diffrent atmosphere of it compared to canada would be wonderful to photograph. Its always been a life long dream to go to London, or anywhere in England really, its just the diffrent look of the buildings, the food, the music it would be a whole new experience in itself. Also it would give me an excuse to go onto a plane as I have never been on one my entire life, so that too would also be a new experience that I would greatly look forward to doing!

While I may have "caved in" on politics and deciding where to have lunch on occasion, but I have never actually caved in to peer pressure in the conventional sense. In other words, I have never tried drugs, alcohol or cigarettes as a result of others wanting me to. My friends understand that when I say I am not interested in something, not to press the issue with me. I have tried alcohol on my own accord before and decided that I didn't like it. I certainly won't judge those friends of mine who do use drugs and alcohol, because as long as they respect my choice not to do it, I can respect their choice to do what they enjoy. Friendship is always about a mutual respect.
