found
yourself
without
the
necessary
language
to
describe
them
to
your
friend?
Perhaps
you
have
trouble
remembering
faces.
You
don't

an
artist
to
be
able
to
let
someone
know
what
another
looks
like.
If
you
follow
these
instructions,
you'll
improve
your
memory
and maybe even hook your friend up with Mr. or Ms. Right.

they have long, thick, curly lashes, or are they sparse, straight or short?

any

it
long
or
short,
turned up or hooked? Is it wide or narrow?

and is their cupid's-bow on top very defined?

：
Notice any distinctive features, such as a mole or birthmark, even a scar or tattoo
。

：
What body shape does this person have
? Are they tall or short, plump, average, stout or
lanky? Do they have proportionately long arms or legs.

Words to Describe Yourself
We
all
know ourselves
inside
out,
but
when
we
are
asked
to
describe
ourselves, we
sometimes
don't know what to say. Here's a small guide on 'words to describe yourself' and what you should
remember...


There
are
many
areas
in
life
today
where
you
will
be
asked
for
words
to
describe
yourself.
Whether it is a facebook profile, any other social networking site or a job interview, you will be
asked to describe yourself in a few words on many occasions. The idea here is to be original and
creative, and not give the same old run of the mill answers that everyone else gives. You need to
stand out from the rest of the crowd, and using some creative words to describe yourself is a way
that is sure to succeed.


Everyone knows that
you need to focus on the positive aspects of
your personality here. When
someone asks you to describe yourself you are not going to tell them that you are a lazy slob who
oversleeps and sneers at everyone else (even if it is true), what people want to hear is how you're
the epitome of tidiness and idealism, and how everything you touch turns to gold. In short, you
need to sugarcoat everything that you say. Read more on

Now, this is a slightly cynical way of looking at things, but let's see some brief overviews about

1
what you can say when someone asks you for words to describe yourself.


Answer # 1
: I am a vivacious and vibrant person who brings joy to every room that I lay foot in.
Wherever
I
travel,
exuberance
follows,
and
I
want
nothing
more
than
to
be
the
sole
cause
of
unlimited joy in everyone's life.


Answer
#
2
:
I
am
an
idealistic
philanderer
and
nothing
pleases
me
more
than
being
part
of
a
mutually beneficial productive circle, where my undoubted skills are an asset for everyone on a
whole.


Answer # 3
: I am an adaptable and adventurous individual who takes great pride in my ability to
work
in
a
team
and
motivate
all
those
around
me
to
offer
their
best
in
order
to
meet
common
objectives.


All these lines sound very pleasing and attractive, but if you read between the lines you may find
that answer # 1 implies that the individual always wants to be the center of attention, answer # 2
points out that the individual will always try and strike a bargain with someone else, and answer #
3 shows that the individual will steal credit for someone else's hardwork. As I mentioned, this may
be slightly cynical for some to follow. You may also
