I CAN’T TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT ISN’T REAL.

via To Friend 1: I have finally realized that no matter how a great friend you can be sometimes, you are not allowed to beat up my self-esteem so that yours can be boosted. Stop trying to show me that you always know better, that you can jump farther, run faster, and tell better jokes than me, or that someone else can do that too, and more. Stop depreciating and belittling everything I do. The truth is, I know that there are a lot of people who are way better than me at everything. You’re not one of them. Accept that. You have no choice, because anyway, I’m not going to let my battered self-esteem take anymore. If this upsets you, get over it. To Friend 2: I’m really, really tired of playing guessing games. Either you do, or you don’t. Note: Please do not ask what’s going on. Chemistry was good, school was awesome, but I’m worn out today.
INTRODUCING
Name: Louise
13 April 1992
You can only call me Lulu if you don’t think the name’s funny.
I am a member of the Smiley Conspiracy and a proud ex-CHS-ian, graduating class of 2009. Now doing A-Levels at HELP University College. Is proudly Malaysian, but doesn’t look like it and is proud of that too.
This is the 7th time I am editing this about section of the blog this year; I have sort of accepted that my personality is ever-evolving, ever-changing, therefore rendering my moods as volatile as the weather. But just as there are some things that have stood untouched across the centuries by harsh weather, so there are some things with me that remain ever the same: a belief that to live is to learn, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks.
What I love also remains constant. I love good food, dancing, fresh experiences, open minds and friendly people, all of which can be found in the wonderful wonderful city that is Istanbul. I love musicals, plays, good books, stickers, owls, colourful wrapping paper, hugs and kisses, chocolates, almost any music from the 17th to the 21st century, intense debates and post-it notes.
Fictional characters I have been compared to (in terms of personality) are Piglet from Winnie The Pooh and Kelsi from High School Musical.
I dream of finishing this list [29/8/2010: list is undergoing revamp!], and my secret ambition is to become a hairdresser or bartender. Unfortunately I’m also incredibly kiasu, so I’m going to go to university just to show everyone that I can. But want to go to uni also because I love learning lah!
Words that describe me are impulsive, impetuous, quixotic, sanguine, quirky, bewildered, kiasu and hodgepodge. The last one also refers to my sense of fashion.
*GRINS* :D
