I admire Bono (From U2) so much. He's an amazing man who has entertained the world for years. Not only that he is helping reduce world poverty. I love him!!!!

Yeah this is a tough one. I don't think there's anyone who I really "admire". There might be, I just can't think of them. There are plenty of people who I genuinely respect. Two people off the top of my head who fit that category would be my American Lit teacher and my phys. ed teacher. My Lit teacher is just a really great guy. You wouldn't know it to look at him. He's a big guy, very broad shoulders. (He's also a football coach...) But he's someone who I feel I could talk to, if I ever had a problem with anything in life. There aren't many people who I can say that about, but I can say that about him. I've never actually done that, but this is the impression I get of him.

The gym teacher, the reason I respect him so much is because he respected us. Most teachers, when they want you to be quiet, they expect you to stop talking immediately or else you're just be nuisance. But with this gym teacher, when he wanted our attention, instead of just saying "listen up" or "stop talking", he'd say "finish up your conversations and then listen up." He said he understands that it's rude to talk while he's talking, and that it's also rude for him to talk while we're talking. So he treats us with the same respect he expects we show him. And I must say, it worked. I never heard anyone talk badly about him.

These aren't the only people I have respect for, just the two that popped into my head. If I think of any others I'll post them.

I admire my Mum + Dad too. They have bought me into this world and taught me right from wrong. I think they have done a good job! And if it wasn't for my Mum, i wouldn't love Budgies as much as i do now!!!

By bringing them into the family. I was only introduced to Budgies when i was about 13. Before that we only ever owned Canaries.

Canaries are fab but you can do so much more with Budgies. Budgies love to be out and flying about whereas Canaries like to stay in their cages and sing!
