Just another LiveJournal, I guess
public.
My name's Geng Hao, and just so I sound modest, I'm a typical, unsociable and seemingly boring Asian student who looks like the kind who carries a book with him everywhere he goes. But there's definitely more about me to what meets the eye. In truth, I'm a living example of the quote, "Don't judge a book by its cover". Though it's true that I leave bad impressions on others because I get tangled up in embarrassingly awkward moments more often than not. But it's mostly because I have issues with expressing myself well.
I'm a die-hard perfectionist, and that statement in itself should, succinctly, explain why I place so much emphasis in using standard English to write my entries. This trait in my personality may be reflected in many other cases, too. For one, I can't complete Social Studies essays on time because I'm usually so paranoid about how my handwriting looks. To me, writing an "e" as a "c" just because I'm in a rush is a complete no-no. So... being a perfectionist has its disadvantages, too.
I have a secret, though. I will never be as intellectual as how I seem to be online. Know me as a person, and you'll see how crazy I can get. Compare the me here and the me you meet in real life, and you'll most likely be left staggered at the astonishing difference. It's perfectly alright, actually - I feel as if I'm always at odds with myself, too. If put nicely, though, I'm a diverse character. I'm very prone to change, and I seem to wear a different mask everyday. But at the end of it all, one thing's for sure - every mask I wear is genuine. I believe in being real to myself and to others, and I will continue to do so, even if that means having to embrace an extremely varied personality.
Basically, what you've just read provides nothing but a quick glimpse of me as a person. I believe I'm really more than everything that's been described, and frankly, I can't be 100% sure of myself all the time, either. If you'd like to know me better, feel free to interact with me by commenting on my entries, exchanging messages and the like. I'm also open to new LiveJournal friends, too, and just a short introduction of yourself will do.
