Essay Questions

What is your most memorable childhood experience?My most memorable childhood experience would have to be not from a specific date, but from a time frame spanning a few years. We had an apple tree in our backyard and every fall we'd go as a family and pick apples from the tree. For some reason those memories are extremely special to me.
What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why?I closely identify with my brother, more than likely because we are closer in age and have similar personalities.
What character traits do you admire in an individual?I most admire honesty. But I also admire determination and kindness. To me those all come together as one for a confident individual that not only respects themselves, but others also.
What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you?There are a lot of funny moments to choose from, but the one that stands out most would probably be from when I was in my early 20s. My brother and I were sneaking up on a mutual friend to pull a prank on him and in the process of running away after performing said prank, I turned to look behind me and was clotheslined by a tree branch. You can say instant karma was in full effect.
If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why?I would go to Hungary and Paris. I would travel to Hungary to learn and see more of that part of my family heritage in person. I would go to Paris because that is the one place my wife says I must take her. Happy wife happy life, and I hear France is a beautiful country.
When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them?I currently have four boys, and what I'd like to pass on to them the most is not a possession. I'd like to pass on to them what I believe are good traits to have as a man and a person overall. To be more specific, how to be a gentleman to women, kind but also assertive at the same time to others they encounter. I like to think I have good qualities and traits that I have learned through my journey, and I hope to pass on the knowledge to my boys.
