- About Me:
- Hello everybody. I am currently having a hard time writing about myself I was never one to be comfortable doing it, so I am just going tell you some random things about me.
I am turning 18 on February 11, so presents would be greatly appreciated. Haha just kidding. My point is that I am turning 18 soon but I have the hearing of a 70-year-old. When talking to me it is crucial that you don't whisper.
I like softball. Softball is known to be one of those "lazy" sports, but hey, not as easy as it looks. I am actually pretty good at it. Okay maybe that it an exaggeration, but I would say that I am not that bad at it.
I absolutely love singing. Singing always takes me to my happy place.
I have only ever been to two schools in my life, YCIS and SAS, making this year my 16th year in Shanghai. I practically grew up here. It was pretty amazing watching Shanghai develop into the metropolis of China.
I am absolutely terrified about the future, and not getting into any colleges yet is definitely not helping me sanity :S
I LOVE watching films so I am actually pretty excited about learning how to watch movies differently. To be able to really analyze a film will make me truly appreciate film and cinematography more than I already do.
Okay so maybe there aren't a lot of random facts about me on here. I told you I wasn't good at talking about myself. Anyhow I'll update this from time to time one of think of more random facts about me.
