Hello! This is just something I'm doing for fun, for my character Lizette, these are random questions I stole from different websites.

I'll paste the template so you can do these questions with your characters.

1. What is your weakness?
   Too hard on myself, which most dancers suffer from.

2. What is a strength of yours?
   I’m real, I don’t like to sugarcoat things. There’s no use in lying, I think it’s a dumb game. I get that from my grandmother.

3.What makes you passionate about your occupation?
I’m an entertainer. I dance, it’s what I do. Without it I’m nothing, admittedly it’s a bit hardcore but I think it’s oddly sexual. Like a devotion to your lover, think of it that way.

4.What’s your favorite genre of music?
Absolutely LOVE Hindustani music. My mother used to play it all of the time in the house when I was growing up and it’s a drug! I also like Paramore, I have a crush on the lead singer.

1. What’s your biggest pet peeve?
   Liars, they’re the worst.

2. Tell me about a one-off conversation you had with a stranger a long time ago. Why do you still remember this conversation?
   This girl, oh the sweet thing, I had just gotten off stage from a performance of mine, it was Coppelia. I was not the lead act, someone else had gotten the role of Swanhilda. Whilst getting off stage, I was stopped by this kid who looked about…I’ll say, nine to twelve years old, she came up to me and called me beautiful and said that she had wished she could do ballet, but then, she had cerebral palsy so her legs couldn’t move properly. We talked about all different ballet terms and favorite plays that she had, but then I had to leave. The little girl’s name was Genes, she’s a thought in my brain every so often.

3. How do your grown-up experiences with romantic love compare to what you imagined when you were a kid?
   As a kid, I always knew that I’d fall in love with someone, be it a woman or man. I’ve done that already, now as an adult I realize it is absolute bunk.

4. Everybody has at least one unpopular opinion. What’s yours? Give me the full rant.
   Mine is…Hmm. I guess you could say that I genuinely love mustard better than ketchup. I don’t think that I have very controversial opinions but there you go.

5. If you weren’t you, who would you want to be instead? If you could choose between being yourself or this other person, which would you pick?
   I would be…Zizi Jeanmaire. She’s my favorite dancer and the way her body moves is intoxicating, every time I am watching her performances. I try to mimic the way she moves but nobody can do it the way she does. Preferably alive though…

10.What was the last teeny-tiny, seemingly insignificant thing that made you cry, pissed you off, or filled you with joy?
Just last night, tying the ribbon around my pointe shoe really sent me a run for my money. I was almost late for my performance.

1. What were you like as a baby/child?
   Very annoying. The camera never had a break from me, always hopping around and singing in the house every chance I got. Home videos showed the most candid version of me growing up.

12.What does everyone else seem to do better than you?
Putting on shoes, having hooves isn’t easy.

13.What has been your proudest moment? How did you see yourself at the time?
Getting a standing ovation for a solo I had done. It was pretty big, the audience liked me so much they attacked me with flowers, one of the rose thorns hit me so I had to pretend it didn’t hurt even though it actually did. During that moment it felt like being on top of the world.

14.Muffins or cupcakes?
Muffins, whole grain ones. I try to watch my diet…

15.Favorite pizza toppings? List the top five in order.
Olives, my friends say that I am crazy for that but I think they are the crazy ones! Black olives rule!

16.Do you find fart noises funny?
Yes, especially mine.

1. What makes you laugh?
   When people trip and fall. Call me sadistic, but it gets a laugh out of me all of the time.

18.What was your first kiss like?
Very, very, very wet. It was in the back of a living room. There was a birthday party one of our classmates had. This nerdy kid that I liked asked if I wanted to kiss him and I obliged. We snuck behind these couches and kissed, very amateur. We were eleven.
