sexy is an attitude

30.5.07

in all seriousness, i do believe that i am one of the most underestimated ppl in the world.

*disclaimer: this is not out to diss any particular person/group of ppl,so don't intellectualise too much. i just decided that i didnt want to bottle all this up anymore.

i would really appreciate it if people would stop calling me bimbo/ditz, or associate me with anything vaguely bimbotic/ditzy, even if it's done in a light-hearted manner (i.e. in jest) because it really isnt funny anymore; in fact, i resent it. and today was kinda like the-straw-that-broke-the-camel's-back.

yeah so i mightn't be the smartest person around but i know for a fact i'm not dumb. and ppl underestimate me,maybe they don't think i'm serious enough because i'm always [usually] happy and smiling and high.or maybe i talk with alot of hand gestures/head movements,whatever. it's part of my personality.
so i've been playing along with everyone...i didnt think it mattered that much but now i guess it just does..u know? it didn't affect me that much either,until today. i mean, even if it's done in jest, repeated instances can be hurtful. not just to me, but to just abt anyone else. i'm quite tired of all this, and tired of trying to change ppl's [warped] perception of me. i'm cool with who i am, i just dislike all the ribbing. which,by the way, happens on a daily basis.

yeah, think what u want of me, but just be discerning with your words,becos words are powerful and they carry more weight than you think. some thoughts are not meant to be articulated, some opinions are better kept to yourself, and some questions shouldn't even be asked.

    Haha, of course not. We know you're a really diligent and persevering person with fully functioning wetware who passed math when your partner fails it on a regular basis =)
