saw

this today, and enjoyed it: "extroverted introvert"


that defines me pretty well.

entertaining, 20 random facts about myself while refusing to use the word "I"

1. when the same bus lines catch up to one another, they seem like they are racing
2. when younger, the larger trucks seemed like they were beating the smaller cars, because of course, they were bigger
3. my favorite number is 3 because it looks evenly balanced to me, there are things on each side
4. my first crush was in the 3rd grade, his name was chris, after revealing my crush, he clearly said "ewwwww," since then revealing my crushes to the crushee is not a fond hobby of mine
   
5. punks are really really awesome to me, the systemic pressures of society have little impact on what they care about, always secretly wanting to be them
6. contractions are tacky
7. understand Vietnamese, speak fragmented Chinese, think in English, dream in Vietnamese/English
   
8. my love for music is only faulty because no one shares the same interests/tastes, it has always made me really sad
9. my longing for paris, france is inhibited by my inability to speak any french
10. secretly and strongly dislike it when people insult modern art/art in general and say that they can make a certain piece because they will probably never do so in their lifetime
    
11. cannot stay in the "angry/mad" state for too long, or else my emotions will burst into tears
12. often, a sense of loneliness sweeps over me
13. to be less shy, has been my new year's resolution for as long as my memory has served me
14. never gambled in las vegas but my family and myself frequent it very much, so much that we have stayed at all the following hotels for free: bellagio, venetian, wynn, sands (when it existed), palazzo, treasure island, mirage, bally's, circus circus, stardust, mandalay bay, rio, new orleans, harrah's, paris, palm's, hard rock, mgm, hilton, stratosphere
15. my love for music started in the 6th grade after seeing a music video with No Doubt singing "Don't Speak"
16. memorizing lyrics will never happen for me, however oddly enough, singing linkin park's entire first album is not so troubling
    
17. very aware of other people's emotions as a people pleaser, which is why my face wears a continuous smile
18. my shortness sometimes bothers me, since my age is no longer 12
19. sometimes, my passions are rarely found in others, or maybe they are just hidden
    
20. change occurs, trust me it does, but only through conversations, understanding, and patience, a shame that all three rarely occur at the same time
