What is your most memorable childhood experience? | My most memorable childhood experience was when I was five years old. We did not have a lot of money at the time. On my fifth birthday, my dad gave me a toy car, which was very surprising considering our financial situation. It meant so much to me that my dad would sacrifice so much for me just to get me a toy car for my birthday. |
What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | I most closely identify with my older brother. We are very close in age and have always got along while growing up. We have shared all of our best memories together while growing up and stay in constant contact even now. |
What character traits do you admire in an individual? | The character traits I admire most in an individual include a person's honesty as well as their willingness to assist another person in any situation. I also admire when a person is able to remain calm in a stressful situation. |
What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | The funniest thing ever to happen to me was when I was competing in a gymnastics competition at 12 years old. I was performing on the high bar and my pants were too big and loose. In the middle of my routine, I could feel them getting looser and by the end of my routine, they fell down to my knees. It was more embarrassing at the time, but now I think it was hilarious. |
If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | If time and money were not an issue, I would travel the world. There are many countries that I have heard both good and bad things about. However, I would love to travel to those countries to form my own impressions. |
When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | If I ever have children, I would like to pass onto them my native language. Our family has a lot of values and traditions that mean a lot to us and I want to make sure that my kids get to be a part of that. |
