Une coquille de noix


Question: What do you like about you?

Response: First, to be noted: I think the reason I write in Question: Response format is because I miss English class, and it just feels organized and oh so English. I feel if it were an assignment, Mr. Macmillan would appreciate it for all its organization and reverence. Just blabbing now. I hope this blog entry doesn't end up sounding immodest. Because it is also to be noted that for every thing I like about myself, I critique four other things that I do. Ryan says it is unhealthy. I just call it progress.

  • I like my hair. I don't like my hair as much as Allison's hair, but I like it enough to be satisfied with its length and the funny shapes it makes in humidity and the funnier shapes it makes when I wake up and it is dissatisfied. I have decided that I am going to keep my relationship with my hair in good spirit for the rest of my life, and not ever dye it again- and if I go grey at 25 like my father, I will cut it all off and have grey pixie hair, enhancing the fairy effect. And that is that.
  • I like the way that I have no trouble expressing myself. This is not always an attribute that is appreciated by the public, probably, but I think it is silly to hold anything in. If I love you, I let it be known. I will not shy away from awkward topics, and I certainly will not tiptoe around your feelings. I will not be openly crass or rude to someone (I hope), but I will not lie or hide away a truth that may or may not hurt you. I don't believe in it. I like me for doing this- because I know so many who don't, and it's frustrating to me and the people around them. It makes my relationships more passionate and feeling, and it makes my human bonds stronger. I think. Maybe.
  • I also like how I have no trouble trusting people or sharing anything with people: if I like you, and I'm feeling a good vibe, I will tell you everything there is to know about me and why I am the way I am- if you want to hear it. I'm not introverted, and I refuse to shy away from possible relationships that can be formed or salvaged. 
  • I feel like when I really apply myself, I can get something done. I accomplish the things I am passionate about. I try my hardest. Usually. *Cough cough.*
  • This isn't, per se, about me...but sort of. I love the people in my life. I hate many people in my life. But mostly, I love them. And I think they love me. Maybe. So I think that counts. 
  • I like my romper. 
 

My question is this:
Where is your most favourite place to be in the whole wide world?

  1. Response: My beach. If it's hot. And there has to be about 400 of my cousins running around asking me to play with them and swim with them and loving me oh so much. There is no love like a childs love for the big kid they admire. So thats why it is my favorite. Mr.McMillan would kill me If i repsonded like this also because there is no quotes from the source. haha
