So, I went to my friend groups traditional sleepover (which we do every holiday break) and stayed up til 3 am talking about whatever came to mind...
Now, usually we run out of questions to ask each other at about 10pm so I took the liberty of going to different websites the night before to find personal questions or whatever...
Anyways, one of them turned out to be 'What were your first impressions of me' so we went around talking about our first impressions of each other...
And the majority of my friends thought I was 'Cool' when they first met me and I couldn't stop laughing. They said that the way I acted and just some of the things I did made me come across as like really cool...
*snorts*
I just consider that to be the weirdest thing
They were saying that when they met me they wanted to like... almost impress me... and like be my friend and get my attention...
Again, the weirdest thing in the world because I'm extremely shy and am a nerdy trash bin.
And it was funny telling the other what I thought of them at first... like, one of my friends I found extremely intimidating and thought she hated me when I first met her but really, looking back on it, is the stupidest thought I could ever have because she's so sweet and caring... She's like a mother to the group.
Anyway, another of the questions was 'What annoys you about the people in the room?'...
And we mostly sat there awkwardly because we didn't want to hurt anyone... But we're all really close friends so we just laughed at most of them...
And I hardly got any criticism....?
One of them was 'You're hair is too amazing and it annoys me because I will never reach that level of perfection'
Another was '... You swear a bit...'
And that was pretty much it...
Some of my other friends got that they were too bossy or moody and I just got all of them staring at me trying to think of what to say....
I thought I was the most annoying person to ever exist but apparently not...
I just guess it really helped my self esteem... Like I always have the thought that I annoy everyone sometimes and that I talk way too much... Which I said to my friends and they said I didn't...
Anyway, this story was just to tell you guys that those questions are a pretty good idea to ask your own friends. It lets you think about what kind of person you come across as and allows you to consider what aspects you can improve on with constructive criticism.
Anyways... its 12pm and I'm going back to bed... If there are any spelling/grammar mistakes... I've had 3 hours of sleep... Sue me :P
