I have always wanted to meet the 2002 Winter Olympics Gold Medal Champion Jamie 
Sale. Jamie is a figure skater; she skates with her partner David Pelletier, whom she is 
living with. There are many reasons why I would like to meet her. 
The first time I saw Jamie's performance was on television. She and David skated to their 
breath-taking program, "Love Story". Jamie's passion and sportsmanship caught my 
attention immediately. She was an enjoyment to watch, not only because of her technique, 
she also had a shinning smile during her performance. It was because of Jamie that I 
recognized that beauty of figure skating. 
Secondly, Jamie has won countless titles in figure skating; it would be interesting to meet 
with a successful woman like her. I understand that as a professional athlete, Jamie devotes 
most of her time practicing on ice. It would be nice to meet with someone with such 
devotion and determination to a sport. 
Lastly, but not least, there are many things that I would like to know about Jamie. Such as 
when did she start skating, who is her favorite skater, what other sports does she like, how 
long does she practices everyday etc.
Jamie Sale is truly an amazing skater. She is a wonder on ice. I would be eternally grateful 
if I could meet with this talented woman.

person to live out a fairly productive life. 
Life represents different things to various people. Some people view life as mesmerizing 
and worth living, while others just take it for granted and don't really give it much thought.
Knowing what life is really about is of great importance to me. I have always been 
amazed at the multitude of living beings that presently inhabit the earth. What is the 
meaning of life? How did it come about in the first place? What can be done to make 
living here on earth worthwhile? Someone who is famous might actually have some 
interesting thoughts to share on this subject.
It surprises me that no one ever asks such questions from famous people. People like to 
interview a famous person and ask all sorts of personal questions. I think that asking this 
single question and carefully observing the speaker can actually reveal a lot about the 
speaker's personality and outlook than asking personal questions. This is because famous
