So, to the general population of Oasis:
Zak's most recent journal makes me think that we don't chat enough. So, in the spirit of site-wide love and unity, I pose this question to all of you for us to discuss and have fun with:
What are three things about yourself that you just love?
And
What are three traits that you love/admire/look for in other people?
Okay, so being the person to bring it up, I'll go ahead and throw my things out there.
What I Love About Myself
I love quite a bit about my appearance. There are a few things I would change, but mostly I'm a not-bad looking person. <3
I love that I'm kinda artistic. It's a fun way to express myself and just have fun.
I actually love that I take after my mom as far as certain personality aspects. I also love the ways that I am diffeent from her.
What I Love In Other People
God, I love a good sense of humor. Please make me laugh. I love to laugh.
I love that shy, awkward way people smile at you if you make eye contact for a long while, then smile at them.
Confidence. Confidence. Confidence.
I love when people can love themselves. So give me a reason to love you by showing yourself some love here?
You're all beautiful people, by the way. <3

"A loving man and woman in a committed relationship can marry. Dogs, no matter what their relationship, are not allowed to marry. How should society treat gays and lesbians in committed relationships? As dogs or as humans?"
This is a little hard...
But here goes:
Myself:
My synesthesia. It makes me so happy when I'm so sad... and can fill my dreams with color.
I love how random and creative I am. I entertain myself so, so well.
I love my arguing abilities. I can find a way to debate ANYTHING, and 99.9% of the time can poke the perfect hole in somebody's argument.
Others:
I love it when people can argue with me. I like people who can debate things, with good points. And stubborn enough so neither of us will give up. As long as they don't have any really awful opinions, it needs to have at least a little truth, so they actually have an argument, as opposed to stating a wrong fact repeatedly. That doesn't let me excercise my debate skills.
I love it in a person when they can think of random things off the top of their head, have thoughts that have nothing to do with anything, and aren't afraid to share them.
I like patience in a person; I'm not patient at all, though I wish I was. I feel so great when somebody's willing to wait, not rush me.
So there you are. :)
Let's see..
What do I love about myself?
I love that I'm athletic it feels great to be good at that sort of thing.
That I'm pretty confident in myself personally. There's not a lot I would change.
My ability, or willingness to listen to other people.
In other people..
That they don't give up
People who have a good sense of humor, not always seeing the glass half empty.
I love people who are willing to learn from mistakes, not pretend like they didn't make them.

Myself:
I hate to sound conceited, but I think I have a really attractive face.
I'd say I'm pretty easy to get along with.
I stand up for what I believe in.
Others:
I prefer to surround myself with people who have actual senses of humor.
To expand on the previous point, I like people who make me laugh, which is extremely easy to do.
My friends also need to have the ability to be weird with me. :D
'bout me: I think I'm not
'bout me:
I think I'm not bad looking. Really. I try to dress well, at least.
I love being fairly coordinated and having good reflexes. It's saved my life or at least my dignity on countless occassions.
I'm really perceptive of 99.9% of people's feelings.
Other peeps:
Able to carry on a good conversation.
Smart, but not so smart that they make me feel like a nitwit.
Likes the same activities as I do- not the same things, but the same things to do.

Myself: My intellect, my uniqueness (oddly enough, as I don't see uniqueness as a worthy goal in itself), my adaptability.
Others: Kindness, humor, faith.
Myself: I love my
Myself:
I love my personality, its so colorful! My Eyes, they speak the knowledge of a thousand years in one glance and the innocence of a child in another. And finaly I love the way I can let people close and keep them together. Sometimes it only takes one word to bring together an army, or shatter an opposing force.
Others:
Kindness. Loyalty. And Love of others.
Thanks for helping me lead the way Ashley.
The Darkness is my ally. Those who face me shall know its wrath. From Darkness our world was made, and so to that Darkness shall it soon return unless we bring the Light of Unity and Love back to it.
