(hold on, isn't this a tumblr game??)
1. Pick five words that you know other people (friends, family, teachers, significant others, critics, etc.) use or might use to describe you. Assess how accurate you believe these perceptions are.
Loud - well, I do have a loud voice, which I myself don't notice, so yeah, true.
Talkative - to a certain extent. With my friends, yes. If I don't know you/am uncomfy with you/dislike you, this may not be the case.
Nice - again, it depends. In the natural state, yes, if I don't know you and such. But once I see you doing some sh*t, then I won't.
Crazy - Well, haha, true. Not necessarily bad crazy, but I am mostly not in the state to contain my feels, and am likely to show them with people I am comfortable with, so yes.
Smart - Oh. Well, in terms of grades, probably? But I don't consider myself as that smart.
2. What's your current favorite kpop song (most played within the last month) and why?
Most played within the last month would be probably Request from Infinite. Well, the reason would be the pleasant melody and tune of it (Infinite-like, and the beginning gets me hooked), and Sungyeol's fantastic low voice in the second verse. As an album, most likely IU's Modern Times. I always listen to the whole album without looking at the titles properly, so yeah.
3. What's something you've gained from participating in fandom that you never expected to gain?
Woah. Nice question. What exactly did I gain from Inspirit? From the most recent scandal with Myungsoo involved, I guessed I gained from fandom that fandom, no matter how nice, is delusional and is jumping way too quick on conclusions and that I shouldn't focus too much on fandom itself but on the boys. I can be a fan without considering myself as part of the fandom. That's it, I guess.
4. Who out of the kpop artists you know of do you have the most respect for? Can be an entire group or an individual, whether a member of a group or a soloist. Try not to pick based on superficial factors or things like an artist's concept unless it was actually created/decided by that artist. You don't even have to like the artist's music, just respect them for how they approach being an artist.
Hmm. Heechul from Super Junior. Take this for example: http://yeolyeong.tumblr.com/post/64214635306 I think as someone who is in SM, Heechul has a really interesting and provocative point of view to SM. It was awesome to see an idol finally speaking up about this, even if it's just one issue of the company.
Also, all of Infinite. They are my rolemodels of sorts. All of them chased their dreams, followed their passions, like what they do and always love their fans.
5. What's one seemingly small thing in your life that you are very grateful for?
My braces (which are transparent, don't get a wrong idea). They're no big deal for others, but I'm grateful that I have it.
6. When is the last time you paused to reflect on your life from a broader perspective (e.g. re-evaluating long-term goals, examining your own personal growth, etc.). If you are comfortable sharing, please tell me a bit about what you found when you looked inside yourself.
Um, weeks ago maybe (but still in this month I guess), about my decisions as in why I chose this school, what I wanted to do when entering, and where I'm heading to. I found out that I can do everything I want and should do, and I'm relieved. (Also kudos to Summer for helping me out here.)
7. Who on AFF do you admire the most? You can name as many users as you'd like, and the admiration can be based on anything from writing skills to graphic skills to personal integrity, etc.
Summer and Sapphy. ♥
8. What is one trait you tend to find yourself envying in other people?
Is there any particular reason for this?
Um, when others can keep calm when something is bothering me, or saying it in slang, "not giving a about others". It's because I can't. I keep caring about it.
9. What's the last published book you read? What was it about, and would you recommend it to other people? Please name the author if you can remember/find it.
Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress by Dai Sijie. It's about two boys who are sent to the countryside to be re-educated after the Chinese Cultural Revolution (1960's), and a seamstress who starts reading forbidden books such as Balzac and such. I liked it, since I like reading books about Chinese culture, so yeah, I'd recommended it.
10. What do you think is one of your greatest flaws? Do you ever try to compensate for or remedy this flaw, and if so, how?
I talk too much, and can't give a about anything. Also, I can't "contain my feels", at all. I try lots to compensate the first (trying not to talk much), but I can't, somehow. After two hours, it just doesn't work anymore. The second, well I say often, "I don't care. Leave it," which works quite well. And the latter - this don't work. I can't manage to contain my feels.
11. Take a few minutes to take the MBTI personality test give here. Which type are you? Read about your type and assess how accurate you think description is. (Note: This isn't the official MBTI instrument, so don't take the results too seriously. Sometimes your result will change depending on when you take it, so don't be so quick to fixate on your first result ever as your type. Also, since it's based on self-reported answers, you have to be very honest with yourself in order to get accurate results. Choose what you think is really how you are rather than how you'd like to be. Last, but not least, you're an individual, so take these descriptions with a grain of salt. They can be useful for understanding yourself but aren't meant to be limiting on who you are and/or can be.)
First off: I did probably every single possible test of this. I came out: ENFP (twice), ISFJ (twice) and ESTJ. In this test, I got ESFJ. The true facts are: strong personality skills (I guess; I just like having a wide circle of acquaintances for future reference), warm (sorts), engaging, loyal, caring, may feel they have relatively little inner control, love teaching (oh yes oh yes). It suits me, I guess, since I relate to people (and characters) lots (as long as the said character is deep enough). Well, it suits me, but let me tell you that those three types above were suiting me, too. Heh.
Questions:
