Life's a bitch, Get used to it.
I've never been sure what to put in "About Me" spaces.
Sometimes, I don't even understand myself.
I am neither an optimist nor a pessimist. I'm a "realist", a person who recognises the situation and deals with it in a practical way (it's a genuine word). Put in context, it would be more appropriate to call me realistic and someone who wants to face the truth, no matter how bitter it may be, rather than to be shrouded in wicked lies of bliss. And yet sometimes, ignorance is bliss.
I am not a very emotional or temperamental person. I keep a tight reign over my emotions and can do a stellar job of bottling up my feelings. I believe I have high Emotional Quotient (EQ). I don't swear, unless I want to. And even if I do, it is with a clear mind that I do it. I do not believe in allowing anger or any other emotions take hold of me. However, don't forget that everyone has their limits. One who does not know where to draw the line leads a pathetic existence.
I am neutral towards a lot of things. That's partly because of my realistic attitude. I like to see both sides of the issue, and not stubbornly cling on to a one-sided opinion. One example of my neutral attitude is towards school and studying. I shan't elaborate. Sometimes, I just feel that school contributes to my mundane existence.
I don't really like studying. I have little or no motivation to study. Not that I do not care about my grades. Let me stress that I'm responsible and always complete assignments or projects punctually. However, whenever I feel like burying my head in books, that feeling wears off pretty quickly.
I'm the kind who take things as they come. I don't believe in having dreams or aspirations for the future unless long-term planning is absolutely necessary. What's the point? They do not have immediate effect on my present being.
I enjoy listening and playing music. Playing the piano serves as an outlet for frustration, a brief escape from reality (the other being sleep). Without music, one of the few pleasures in life wouldn't exist. Gone. A vapid existence ensues.
This is, by far, the most I've ever written about myself. I'm surprised that I've never really reflected on my own self, "About Me". Perhaps this blog will aid my quest of self-awareness and self-discovery.
