6. What are your flaws? Write
about a flaw that

7. I don’t like my hair. My hair is thin and stringy and rarely looks good.
Every day I am surrounded by young ladies with beautiful.
Thick, flowing hair which is a constant reminder to me of the
inadequacy of my hair. I become envious when I see Pantene
commercials with shiny, flowing, sleek, long hair. I wish my hair would
grow longer and thicker and that I didn’t have to work to make it look
good. My hair is definitely one of my flaws.

8. I was sad

shoes until I met

no feet.
