As for the words other people use to describe me, it’s a 50/50 toss up between “smart” and “crazy”. (Senior year of high school, I was voted both “Class Clown” and “Most Likely to Succeed”)
As for the other words I think describe me (in addition to the ones above)
[ul]
People always use words like “smart,” “aloof,” “eccentric,” “artsy,” and “quiet” to describe me.
Personally…this is my opinion on all of those adjectives:
Average intelligence
Aloof except when I’m around friends or in a situation in which I don’t feel very self-conscious.
Definitely eccentric in this one-horse town, not so much in other places.
Artsy is the best way to say it.
Um. Not very quiet. Opinionated. Rowdy. But just…not at school.
Back in the US, I was always described as “quiet” or “smart.”
Now in Japan, the first word people always use after meeting me is “serious” (“majime”). I kind of like that one, since it reminds me of the scene at the beginning of “Leon” (“The Professional”) when the mobster’s henchman calls up to his boss that Leon has come to pay a visit:
“There’s a guy here”
“What’s he look like?”
“Serious.” blam
Nice thread!
What people say about me: dominant and self-assured. Teacherish.
I don’t mind. Besides, I am self-assured (at least, I am absolutely done thinking “Oh will They like me?” Bo-ring!)
What I would say:
-loving facts and stories and remembering ever trivial one
-friendly (but I love to be alone)
-lazy
-fun.
What others call me:
[ul]
[li]Stoic.[/li][li]Arrogant.[/li][li]Nuts.[/li][li]Eccentric.[/li][li]Strange.[/li][/ul]
What I call myself:
[ul]
[li]Late for dinner.[/li][/ul]
In high school, I was always the quiet girl. No matter who you asked about me, they were convinced I didn’t know how to talk, or that I was afraid. Naw, I just didn’t care.
I have been described as the following:
[list]
[li]Funny[/li][li]Weird[/li][li]Scary (I like to scare the normal people at my school sometimes. It’s too easy. Too bad they’ve never seen me around some of my friends.)[/li][li]Cute/Pretty[/li]Random/Queen of TMIs
