First impressions.

It's no secret.

I know what people think of me. Why wouldn't I know? Every time I ask, i get the same answer. Well, almost.

Cold.

Fierce.

Vicious.

Angry.

Stern.

Serious.

They may use different words but the overall meaning is still the same = I'm not a likable person. And even when I expect this answer from people, I'd be lying if I said it didn't hurt just a little. Granted, most would usually have a different opinion after getting to know me, but still Ouch!

I'm not vicious, i want to tell them. You just don't know me well enough.
I'm not cold, i want to say. I just need a little time to warm up to people.
I'm not mean, i try to explain. Why don't we talk a little so you can see for yourself?

But what's the use of explaining? First impressions are first impressions. That's what they see, and that's what I probably am. Honestly, I don't know why I keep asking. Maybe deep down I kinda hope I'd get a different answer. Maybe I hope there's someone out there who sees me for who I really am regardless of how I look on the outset.

Maybe i hope too much.

Sigh~

p/s: Someone once said I was fierce just from watching me play low-quality basketball. So I'm posting a video of that, and you be the judge (Btw, I'm the tall girl in black who's scoring most of the goals *gloats*)

p/s: i can already sense some mean comments coming my way. hehehe.

Thank u anonymous1 for the kind comment. Thank u anonymous2 for proving my gut feelings correct.

I watched the video again and this is what i realized:

1. Low quality basketball means everyone crowds to the ball like ants to a sugar-cube (yes, me included).
2. Everyone claps when other people make a goal, but not when i do. It's either they don't like me, or I make too many goals that it was a bit redundant to celebrate each time (I like the second theory better).
3. I guess I was probably, kinda, a bit of a bully (I should have been more relaxed on defense and maybe concede a goal or two for the other team. After all, they were trying their best).
4. I am a very lazy player. No running. No dribbling. No attempt to do anything other than stand there and wait for the ball to come to me. ugh.
5. This isn't a very flattering video of me. maybe i should take it down.

hmmmmmm.... =_='
