Recent events have brought to my attention that my friends thing I have a strong personality. I'm discussing this because I wish to disagree. I actually disagree with a lot of things people tend to say about me. Let me break this down for you. And please never bring it up again. Any of it.
1) I am -not- cute. Just because I'm short doesn't mean I'm cute. I've really learned to dislike people calling me "cute" because I’m pretty sure the reason they do it is because I'm short. Don't call me cute.
2) Yes I am stubborn and bullheaded. I'm very much like any other Italian person I've ever met. Not to be stereotypical but my whole family is stubborn and bullheaded. This doesn't mean that there isn't a happy medium or something of the sort. I can be pleased it's just not all that easy.
3) Its not true that it's impossible to entertain me. Quite opposite really. I'm very easily entertained if you give me something that stimulates my mind.
4) I'm "so smart" is only half true. I really stink at math (other then adding subtracting dividing and multiplying) and I'm a horrible horrible speller. Spell-check is my savior.
5) I'm mean, is only half true as well. Although most people say it in jest, I am half mean. I find it very hard to tolerate immature ignorant people. I hate people that think they're right even AFTER you prove them wrong. And People that aren't willing to admit they were wrong or apologize if that's the case annoy the hell out me.
6) I hate when people ask me thinks like "Why are you like that" or "Don't be like that" or "Why are you so weird" Obviously the answer to that is simple. I am me, not you. I am like "that" because that’s how -I- am. If I was like YOU then I’d not be me. Every person is very unique and entitled to be "like" anything they damn well please. Embrace the fact that everyone's different and quit bitching.
As far as being strong goes. I have quite a hard shell. I protect myself from just about everything and anything because I'd really hate for the past to repeat itself. More often then not when people do/say hurtful things and It seems like I don't care? I do. I just deal with it when I'm alone however I need to deal with it. I don't openly admit anything to most people as that would put myself in grave danger and I don't need to be.
