Bwoooy Abassinna... my ultimate job would be to have my own perfoming arts & entertainment business.. I'm on my way there and I got a looooong way to go....
Why?..because it my main interest and i've been in the industry for years.
Most influential? well theres a few peeps that come to mind not just one...
Most unique.. one sports person I met. not naming any names but he's the real deal. He tells it how it is...and I learnt nuff from him.
Most memorable... at the moment it was when i dropped and did the splits in oxford street last month...ABSOLUTE EMBARRASSEMENT!!blksadbounce
Most frightening.... nearly being run over in Dalston by some nutty Ooman!!
Favourite material ting.... My music mixer radio thingy...
erm and i'll come back to those last two.....

1.My ultimate job would be one that allowed me to stay home and have a flexible schedule so I can be there for my child whenever there was arecital or a game, etc, my ultimate job would also pay well, LOL!...and it would feel like I wasn't working because I would be doing something I was passionate about and loved.

2. The most influential person in my life has been my momma hands down.

3. Most unique person I have ever met...hmmmm, let me get back to you on that one, LOL!

4. I have a couple of most memorable experiences but I'll pick one, meeting and interviewing the mother of emmitt till.

5. My most frightening experience...too many to count...but when my child collapsed in my arms and became unresponsive...didn't know if my baby was dead, fortunately it happened while at the hospital. I think seeing your child sick is the most frightening thing in the world because you feel so helpless.

6. I can't think of anything probably because I don't have much, LOL! Does this computer count?, ha!, ha!, ha!

7. No regrets...I call them lessons and they have helped to make mewhat and who I am today.

What would be your ultimate job? and Why?
I have to say that my ultimate job would be a writer/poet; I have some articles I post separately on another site...but that would be my dream. Plus t shirt design, I have been playing around with fashion and clothing design from about the age of 11...Or the ultimate would be having a holistic spa, a nice place in the Lake District...or a music based charity... (fingers in too many pies methinks
 )
Who has been/is the most influential person in your life?
Probably, peversely the people who bullied me at school. I learned a great deal of inner strength. I also learned that with determination anything is possible.
Who was the most "unique" person you have met?
I am going to be arrogant and say myself, I find inspiration from everyone that I meet...but who is more unique than yourself...you are one in billions!
What was your most memorable experience?
I used to be painfully shy, so the most memorable was doing a group presentation and getting a huge round of applause...it was a really big deal standing up and talking in front of thirty people...and it was a huge ego boost for it to be well received.
What was your most frightening experience?
Being bullied, as despite the amount of self determination you have...if you are not careful or aware it is possible to give up your personal power to people who are completely disinterested in your well being...
What is your favourite material possession?
My good health, no matter how many gadgets, clothes and shoes that I buy...none of it is worth anything if I do not have good health.
Do you have any regrets? If given chance would you change it? how?
I do not have any regrets, everything that you do is a learning process...so without my mistakes there is no way that I could have progressed further...or learned to do things in a more positive way...
What's the nicest thing you ever did for your loved one or a loved one has done for you?
The nicest thing that that a loved one has done is:
given me life.

What was your most frightening experience?
|
Quote:
|
There was a time we almost crushed into a mountain on a small sixteen-setter plane in Kenya, and another time about 3 years ago on holiday to Ethiopia the plane taking us to the capital lost one of its engines and the anti freeze also stopped working. To make mattersworse the stupid captain came on the speaker and asked …. Is there a priest on board? because if there is he needs to start praying or we won’t make it---which made the panicking even worse…

Quote:

And last one… was on my way back from university four years ago I was involved in a train derailment in the Strood tunnel (Kent), it was quite frightenening experience the three front coaches were on their sides and the windows all smashed up, the lights went off and the coaches started to fill up with smoke.

Quote:
No one got seriously hurt, just a few cuts and burses but we had to sit there for three hours waiting for emergency services to rescue us and then had to walk almost half a mile in pitch black and exited the tunnel to camera flashes and screaming journalists, my vision was so distorted for a few hours afterwards. And what did we get for that? A Christmas hamper **KissTeet**
