Who am I? This question is not easy to answer. Mainly because the answer is always changing. Who knew such a simply question could yield such a complicated answer. How could it not? We are complicated people. I am still trying to figure out the answer myself. I can probably tell you who I think I am but still I am not completely sure.
These general pictures you see below are found on the internet. You won’t be able to see me visually in the pictures but should be able to understand what I use to to do and who I am.
When I was a little teeny kid I was involved in many different activities. I particular had an interest in tennis and football. I joined the football and tennis team at my school. I spent months in both and soon realized I didn’t like football as much I did tennis. I learned that football was too rough and it involved working with others. On the other hand, I became really involved with tennis. I guess it was because there wasn’t so much contact involved nor were there any teammates to worry about. I learned that I was a person that liked to work by myself and at my own pace. It wasn’t until I met Mr. Group Project in school. I was then forced to learn to work with other students.
I have been playing chess since I was five and over the years I have gotten really good at playing it…winning many tournaments around the country. I have learned that I have the ability to focus not only on the board but also with my school work. I can sit hour on end focusing on a task or problem without getting up or being distracted. From this I learned how to become patient, think analytically and to approach matters realistically.
I realized several years into grade school that I liked math and science. I noticed that I approached life in a very logical and analytic way. I didn’t know how to be creative. You’re probably wondering how does one not know how to be creative. But I had a hard time expressing myself and so I took up piano. I took a music theory class and many piano lessons. I learned how to express myself not in words but through music.
I am a organized person. I like to be neat. I follow my parents advice- clean as you go. I am person that I will leave something the way I saw it. I am someone who will get things done as soon as possible.
I am optimistic. I help people mostly because I expect to be helped in return.
I am shy and quite. I am tend to approach situations in a calm and reserved manner.
I spend a lot time thinking…I know how hard can that be! I think about life. What about life? Why am I here, what I need to do here, and what is my goal. I think a lot to remind myself that there is a reason why I am here and that I need to focus and not to get side tracked but at the same time enjoy my time wherever I am.
I am friendly..I don’t bite! I like to make friends…well who doesn’t? I am a person who won’t walk up to you unless I’ve seen you before, somewhere else. I will socialize if I know you. I just like to hang out with people.
