Describe your relations with family and friends. What do you like and dislike about them?
I have a bad relationship with family. Going to psychoanalyst i discovered i am the scapegoat of family, they are agressive, they don't know how to demonstrate love towards people, i believe all of them don't have ethics as a strong function. Only my dad have ethics strong, but he's kind of weird. I get along well with them if I don't spend much time at home. About friends, I have about 10 - 15 real good friends, the rest of people I consider as friends, but wouldn't talk as much as the others, a lot of people seems to like me at work and school, people get happy when they see me, I'm kind of popular with people outside my home hahaha. I like friends that care about me, that exchange deep things from their lives with myself, that accept help and don't keep questioning my perception on other people. I don't like people who likes to call all attention to themselves, who want to monopolize situations, I tend to joke about this people in their face, but I do in such a way that nobody gets really offended.
What do you look for in friends? In romantic relationships?
I look for people who are adventourous, and like to have a good time together, go on parties, who are independet, need to have some deepth in character. People which i can grow together.
What conflicts have you encountered recently with other people? Why did they happen? Which kinds seem to happen on a regular basis?
I tend to avoid conflict, and I get really drained by people who keep asking about my life (funny that i'm doing this questionnarie right now hahaha), who are intrusive, who try to force situations on me, and who likes to transform me in a submissive type of person. I have a way that looks that i dont know how to handle pratical things, so people always do things for me, but sometimes this gets annoying. People always think I'm innocent, lost, and that I don't see what they are doing...
How would your friends describe you?A funny, gentle, affectionate person. Who sometimes likes to cause a turmoil if things don't go my way haha. But most of the time I am laughing at things, seeing the bright side of situations.
What do people generally see as your strengths? What do you like about yourself?I see the comic, the bizarre in a lot of things, I am a good observer, make strange connections that make sense to myself and to other people. Can be really corageous to defend my friends, to solve conflict or create them. My friends always tell me other people like me a lot, people always compliment my looks, choice of clothes, hairstyle. I like that I know how to infiltrate into groups, and into situations, how to make everyone like me, and get what I want from the situation.
What are your weaknesses? What criticism do you often face from others? What do you dislike about yourself?
That I'm not good with beign pontual, disorganized. At the same time I am pratical on my advices to friends, I can be really straight, people tell me that before they know me I look arrogant. I dislike that I am always laughing, and telling jokes, I would like to apper more solid.
In what areas of life can you manage well on your own? In what areas of your life would you like help?
I manage well social setings, getting to know people, knowing the best direction to go. I would like help in finances and in domestic affairs.
What things do you dislike doing? What things do you enjoy more than others?
Cleaning, taking care of domestic affairs. I enjoy reflecting, trying to undersant hidden things in environment, like to deal with dificult people sometimes, just to see if I can get my way hahaha. I do like studying esoteric things too, like to get lost in my own interests, and then emerge and deal with people.
What goals, aspirations, or plans do you have for the future? How did you come to have them?
I want to travel, be know as an artist. I do not want to worry about money, I want to pursue my interests, study about life, grow old, and affect other people lifes. Becoming famous? I don't know, probably living one day after another and seeing where it leads me hahaha. Any path leads to any path.
If you had enough money to live comfortably for the rest of your life without working, what would you do with your time?
I would do giant works of art, and would create a institution for people having fun. Maybe a psychoanalytic center, for people be more healthy with each other.
What traits do you find endearing that others might dislike? What traits are considered positive/neutral by others but tend to annoy you?
I like people who are agressive sometimes who says what I am gonna do. I like to handle them, to make them calm down. People who want to know everything about my life, if I want to tell you something, I will say it.
What kinds of things do you do to manage and/or beautify your environment (your room, your house, etc.)? What do you think of daily chores?
I like to buy flowers, and postals to put on the walls. I dont like daily chores.
How do you behave around strangers?If I don't know the strangers and they are in a group I like to observe first how people deal with each other. But if it is one on one situation I like to talk, joke, propose dumb things.
How do you react to conflict? What do you do if somebody insults or attacks you?
I dont like conflicts. I tend to ignore till it passes, or try to aliviate the mood by saying something light. If it is directed towards me, I listen to the offender, and think if it's worth fighting back, it depends on my mood, I can ignore them, laught at them to ridicularize them, say something really slowly, or start cursing, sometimes I know the only way to win is to cry and act fragile, depend on the person.
What is one common misconception that people have? Explain why it is wrong.
People think I'm either arrogant or shy. I think I can look aloof too.

Last friday I woke up late, took a shower, had an argument with my brother trying to get out of house, went to work, midway my boss contacted me in whats app telling me that after lunch we need to talk about my contract (I made confusion with the intership contract between college and work). So I went out to have lunch, had to pass in the bank to close my account, while I was sitting waiting, a random guy i slept with, send me a message telling me that he was in my workplace, I was like "wtf??". So I arrive in the work room, my boss take me out to the cafe, I explain to her that I am running away from a guy, she laughs, we drink coffe and she tells me that the confusion I made was severe, but she likes me and I have a good relationship with other functionaies, and she would like to continue with my contract, so she proposes two plans to keep me in the job. I get back to work, I leave and talk to her, I ask if she's ok (she's kind of in a bad mood after a breakup), we hugh each other and I go home, cancel all the 3 plans I had for going out, in 3 diferent shows with 3 diferent friends, I was tired.
What is your biggest accomplishment?
I don't know.

No, I don't care.
What kind of work environment do you prefer? What do you look for in a job?
Flexible and fun enviroment.
What is or was your favorite school subject and why?
Arts, history and literature. Because these subjects are all about having a subtlety to read between the lines. To imagine what you would do if you where somebody else, and to have a sense of time, of events.
How do you approach responsibility? What do you tend to expect of others?
I am loyal if I compromise to something, but if there isn't a "contract" I usually don't care, and don't expect a lot from people, just a lit bit of etiquette.
Where did you go on your most recent vacation? What did you do there? How did you like it and why?
To portugal, ate a lot of food, go to museums, took lot of photographs but the camera was not working and I only found out later hahahahaha. I like it because it was a place I didn't know about, diferent way of living live.
What were you like as a kid? How have you changed since you were a child?
I was like "Problem child", but also very sweet and funny child. People told me I used to pick up my toys and sit alone, also loved bing photographed. I was a cute child. School and family made me change, I was bullied while growing up, but also I used to discount my anger by beating and cursing the school brains.
What was your high school experience like?
Bad hahaha, I was the strange kid. I didn't adhere to the standards of a "normal teenager", clothes and behaviour. Today high school classmates "lick my boots" (is that right? I'm not native in english).
Talk about a significant event from your life.
Do you like kids? Why or why not?
Yes, because we are kind of kids inside also, inner child.
If you were to raise a child, what would be your main concerns, what measures would you take, and why?
I will concern for the children to feel free, do what they want, not carying about other people opinions too much. I will give them space
Ever feel stuck in a rut? If yes, describe the causes and your reaction to it.
Yes. I do tend to react by going out, drinking, seeing friends, dancing, having sex. I end up going to work and college with the same clothes, because i slept in the house of someone. Sometimes i do go to museum, or take a walk drinking beer, and eventually talk to strangers. I also write in the diary.
How do you see other people as a whole? What do you consider a prevalent social problem? Name one.
I see people as surviving animals in a social context. I consider bureocracy a problem, trying to explain everything with reason.
What do you do if you're not getting what you want? What approach do you use?
I frequently leave the situation and come back later.
Are you comfortable taking leadership roles? In what areas? Why or why not?
No, because I don't like having to take care of a lot of people, or be responsable.

I get angry with people that think they can dominate me, usually my family, and guys, any social setting has someone like that, i frequently rebel and do something really weird to leave them shocked.

I was feeling bad and then got to a walk in a museum, and saw some postals that make a lot of sense to me, I don't know why.
What is the worst thing that happened to you during the past week?
I am kind of in between a lot of guys, but they are jerks, they're a past time, but I am beging to feel tired of not having anything profound, that makes me change my view, it's all shallow.
What is the purpose of life? What do you find personally meaningful in life?
I believe the purpose of live it's living it hahaha, in your own way, the way you want or can. I find meaning in helping people, in doing my art projects, in doing works of art that bother people, but also have some kind of truth, my own truth, and a truth that can be shared, a personal truth, maybe it appeals more to feelings of beign "human". I like to take simple things and expand their concept, to something bigger. Also I tend to make really clean and simple works of art, but people usually react like "what you did?? what's that?" they kind of get surprised.
What is the most interesting place you have been, and why?
Hmmm, I believe lot of places have something interesting, but I like a lot where I work here in Brazil. It's not necessarily a pretty place, but it's interesting. I work between two diferent neighborhoods, one is a place where it is know as a commercial pole of eletronics and automotive equipment, at the same neighbourdhood there's a famous concert hall, the secretary of culture and also a street of crack users. The other neighbourdhood have a lot of koreans and jews, it's a commercial clothing pole, with lot of foreign food restaurants, and there is a concentration of religious places in this neighbourdhood. I like this place that I work because there's a diverseness of realitys, I can get in contact with lot of different people, with lot of diferrent situations, and this makes me step out of my own bubble.
