What character traits do you admire in an individual?Loyalty, hard work and compassion.
What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you?This one time my best friend gave me a list of errands to run that would take a whole day to do, and one of them was to buy a pie. I finished early, but he gave me more random things to do. Finally he gave in and we headed home. I carried all the bags inside, including the pie in my hand. When I opened the door my friends, who were all hiding in my house, all yelled “Surprise!” I threw all the bags, including the pie, and the pie landed on my head. We all laughed about it.
