Heroes

I was just filling out a job application, and one thing it asks is:

"Name three of your heroes and tell why."

Well, I thought I would impose this question on you all. This is partially because I can't think of an answer...so I guess I'll have to answer my own question later...

Re: Heroes

I would say that my older brother is like my biggest hero. That is my only one though.

Re: Heroes

:twitch: That question always bugged me when it was on a test, or a personality test or whatever piece of paper I have to fill out. I usually just end up saying people like Bobby Fischer and Joan of Arc because of all the things they accomplished at such young ages.....

Re: Heroes

I don't have heroes as such but people that I respect a lot and try to be like them sorta. My youth group leader, assorted skateboarders, Shiggie (Miyamoto), my english teacher, my japanese teacher, various bands/singers and Link

Re: Heroes

Nelson Mandella. He acheived so much and he was the president of my country (south africa) for a number of years after wrongly being shut in jail. He achieved so much.

Second...Dennis Bergkamp.. a footballer didn;t really play any sports until this sport. So bergy it is!

And well thats it really..and my ex anelise...she;ll always be my heroine...

Re: Heroes

I generally dislike the american style of hero that either has to have 300 too many muscles or really large boobs and perform sometimes critically illogical actions. Spiderman is the only hero that I actually tolerate because he doesn't win every time (at least not in the TV episodes).

Re: Heroes

Hmm, I have no real "heroes", per say. However, I do have many people who I look up to, including my mother, father, friends, and relatives. If I was to become half as successful as they are in life, I'd be the happiest man alive.

Re: Heroes

Shigeru Miyamoto. He is my hero, the man I aspire to be. If I have half as big of an impact on the video game developing world as he did, my life would have exceeded any and all goals I've set for it.

I don't have any other "hero".

Re: Heroes

Re: Heroes

Kokiri Kid, when someone asks you what your heroe's are, they're trying to find out one of two things 1) If your a psycopath (heroes, Lee Harvey Oswald, Hitler, Attilla the Hun) or to see how original you are. My advice, have a woman( anyone will do, just having a femal hero shows you arent a male chauvanist pig) an obscure vice president, and the sporstman of your choice. Personalize it for each job/college you apply to. You cant fail!
