I know what you’re thinking: “Wow, that’s a really corny blog post title.” It is, I know. However, that’s actually a piece of who I am: corny. Other than that, as the first picture of the slideshow suggests, I’m quite quiet when you first meet me. I’m reserved, only speaking when addressed; I’d rather listen and observe in a group than give my own opinion. This leads to the second picture which reveals how I’m the type to stay home and read a novel (or watch Criminal Minds), especially if the day is rainy. Despite my implications of being a hermit, I do interact willingly and happily with people I care about…which leads to my third slide, a picture of my best friend, Samiha, and I getting ready for our last production of In The Heights! I have a small group of people I truly consider to be my best friends and I’m very content with them.
Other people that mean the world to me include my family, whom you can see in the fourth picture. As an only child, the environment of a loud, bustling family is extremely refreshing, which is why I make an effort to visit the Philippines every summer. My family is fun and bubbly; they inspire me to better myself with every visit. They always tell me to fight my allergies and become immune to them because they know how self-conscious I get about them and how I’ve allowed them to define who I am. I have a lot of allergies, as seen in my next photo, and due to these restrictions, I’ve restricted other aspects of myself as well – one of the major causes of my timidity. Despite this, I’ve somehow overcome my allergy to one type of cheese: Asiago. Seen in the next picture is my favorite sandwich from Panera Bread, the Sierra Turkey. (I know it’s weird that I can eat only one cheese.)
In all, I’m just a quiet-yet-hyper-once-you-get-to-know-me kind of girl. I play the piano (my piano looks like the one in the seventh picture) and I’m obsessed with music, especially Korean pop! I’d rather talk it out than argue, preferring serenity over chaos, as displayed in my last picture.
