Day Two

5 Things I like about me:
1. I think I am funny. Not hilarious, but I can generally get people to laugh at things I say or at least get the ornery people to crack a smile. Something about me seems to put people at ease, and I like that.
2. I have a passion. I think passionless people are boring, but when you have a passion, you are a lot more exciting. My passion is writing, and I live to write and entertain.
3. I care about people. I love to listen to people, and I love to do whatever I can to brighten people's days when I know life isn't going so hot for them. Generally I think that's a good character trait to have.
4. I'm sort of tall in the groups I hang out with. I noticed how much I like being tall when I got into my dorm and discovered I was the second shortest, it's not so fun when you think of yourself as short, but I'm somewhere in the range of 6'1'' or 6'2''.
5. I'm fairly book smart, so classes are generally easy for me. I hope it stays that way in college, but we'll see as time goes by here.

5 Things I dislike about me:
1. I don't ever ask people to clarify. I don't know what it is, but it probably has something to do with my excessive amounts of pride
2. I've always been thrown into the 'just friends' zone with girls. It gets kind of old after a while. Sometimes I get taken out of it for a grand total of five seconds so said girl can check to see what it would be like, and then she throws me back into the same zone as before.
3. I can't dance, like at all actually. I'm working on it, but we'll see how well it works out.
4. I let people tell me what I can and cannot do, I never let myself risk trying to fail, because people say I can't do some things, and therefore, I can't do some things. Way to go me.
5. I'm not a very good planner. I should have done this blog in reverse order so that I could end writing on a positive note, but instead I just totally attacked my self esteem. This blog did to my self-esteem what a red pen on an essay does to an eighth grader...not really, but I really should have done it backwards.
