Welcome to my first blog for my English Composition class. My assignment is answering the thirty-five questions from the writer Marcel Proust, who was a French writer born in 1871 and dead in 1922. Marcel Proust was a great writer and winner of many literary prizes and his questionnaire is very interesting. Answering these questions was fun, but also important because it kept me thinking about myself and kind of man I truly am and I hope you will have fun reading my answer. The Proust Questionnaire 1.__What is your idea of perfect happiness? My idea of happiness is just love, love and being loved. Sometimes people figure out that they were happy once the happiness is gone because it’s more simple than they think. For me, just coming home after a hard and tiring day, take a shower and relax with the person you love while watching a good movie is a perfect happiness. 2.__What is your greatest fear? My greatest fear is dying without achieving my goals or becoming blind. I’ve being working really hard in my life to achieve my goals and I don’t want to die before I achieve them. Becoming blind is also my greatest fear. 3.__What is the trait you most deplore in yourself? I don’t make connexion with people. I’m always alone, but to be honest it’s something I really like. Just sit down alone thinking about life and having fun in my head. __4.__What is the trait you most deplore in others? Their stupidity. Let say our stupidity because I’m not an exception. Sometimes I just tell myself that Humans are the worse Creature of God (if he is the one who created us). Most of us are selfish, we are killing each other and all the other creatures, destroying ourselves and everything around us. 5.__Which living person do you most admire? My dad, a very courageous man who would do anything to take care of his family. 6.__What is your greatest extravagance? Last month I spent like $500 in a PS4 and video games to figure out that I don’t like it at all. __8.__What do you consider the most overrated virtue? I really have no idea. 9.__On what occasion do you lie? I lie when I know that the truth will hurt someone else feelings. 10.__What do you most dislike about your appearance? My stomach. People don’t notice it, but now I got a big stomach because of American food. 11.__Which living person do you most despise? No one. 12.__What is the quality you most like in a man? Being responsible. As a man you should know that you got or will got responsibilities, so you have to be responsible or learn how to be. 13.__What is the quality you most like in a woman? When she is courageous, mature and knows what she wants. 14.__Which words or phrases do you most overuse? "shit" and "like" I use these two words a lot. 15.__What or who is the greatest love of your life? Saoudatou. That girl was the reincarnation of kindness. She always supported and pushed me to do my best. Things were really simple with her and everything was going well until her parents decided for her the man she was going to marry. 16.__When and where were you happiest? I think that was 4 years ago when I was with her and I hope my next relationship will be as perfect and stable as it was with her. 17.__Which talent would you most like to have? I would love to play an instrument or being a good dancer or singer. 18.__If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? I wouldn’t change anything. I think I’m good as I am. 19.__What do you consider your greatest achievement? I can’t really think of one, I’ve achieve a lot of thing these few years, but that’s just a beginning. 20.__If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what would it be? I would want to come back as an animal especially a wolf. Wolfs are my favorite animals. 21.__Where would you most like to live? In a countryside, with a beautiful wife and two kids. 22.__What is your most treasured possession? I don’t have any. 23.__What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery? I have no idea. 24.__What is your favorite occupation? I love watching movies or just sit down and think. 25.__What is your most marked characteristic? I don’t really know. 26.__What do you most value in your friends? I don’t really know, but loyalty is very important to me. 27.__Who are your favorite writers? I don’t have any. 28.__Who is your hero of fiction? Michael Scofield from Prison Break. 29.__Which historical figure do you most identify with? I can’t really think of anyone I relate to. 30.__Who are your heroes in real life? Denis Mukwege.

Being around people who think they are better than others or who are arrogant. 33.__What is your greatest regret? I don’t have any. I think before I make a decision or start something, but if it goes wrong or end bad, it is what it is. 34.__How would you like to die? I would prefer to die in my sleep. 35.__What is your motto? Succeed in life or succeed in life. Insert text
