Time Capsule

This post is meant to be a written "snapshot" of who I am at this point in my life. When I'm older, maybe I'll look back and think, "Wow, I was so enlightened!" or "Wow, I was so naive!" Either way, it'll be a time capsule waiting for me many years from now, preserved only by the functional, yet handy, blogger.com ;)

SELF ANALYSIS: Quyen is an academically intelligent girl who enjoys abstract conversations about ideas and not necessarily events. She has a twisted and odd sense of humor and frequently oscillates between witty and dorky. She can be totally superficial and self-important to strangers, but she can also be warm and engaging to those she likes. She has few friends as she believes most people are stupid, and those friends whom she keeps can often be counted on to deliver either great intelligence or raucous humor. She believes in keeping traditions alive even though they might not have any more meaning to them. She's most comfortable doing the same things over and over. It's the people around her who inspire her to try a new recipe or a new activity. She's anti-social to a fault. However, she can be the life of the party if she so chooses. Men generally admire her for her looks. Women generally admire her for her ability to consistently think rationally and dispense solid advice. She thinks this is ironic because she doesn't believe her strong point lies in her looks or rational thinking but instead, she believes her best trait is her ability to think creatively. In relationships, she thinks people are a team and that gender expectation lines are blurry. She constantly tries to move in a forward direction and never find herself stagnant in terms of personal development. She is very flaky and frequently feels the desire not to return a call or go through with a plan if she doesn't feel like it - this even occurs with things that are important to her or others. She thinks this is more attributed to her laziness than any sort of devious intentions.

This is an incomplete list, but it's all I can think of. Hopefully, this will give me a good idea of who I was when I was 21 y/o. Feel free to copy and make your own time capsules ;)
