15 Things

I got a request from my cousin to write 15 random things - observations, quirks, opinions, et al - about myself last night. At first, I didn't think much of the request, but I couldn't do anything else until I was done with the 15th item. Here is what I came up with:

1. I am stuck between two phases - being old and feeling young
2. I am addicted to coffee, but I am trying to rid myself of the habit
3. I am a social person, but get bored in large gatherings of people
4. I have a short attention span
5. Good music makes any activity doable
6. I know the lyrics to almost every Pink Floyd song
7. Being frank is one of my strengths and weaknesses
8. Age is just a number - you are as old as you make yourself out to be. Likewise, someone's age doesn't stop me from befriending them.
9. My favorite quote - "If you stand for nothing, you will fall for everything"
10. 24 is my all-time favorite show
11. I am shy at first, especially with women; my tongue-tiedness is often mistaken for arrogance
12. Some of my closest friends formed bad first impressions of me. Now they wish they hadn't revised that first impression :)
13. Waking up early has eluded me all my adult life
14. I fancy my cooking
15. I stopped working out as much as I used to because of ennui; it's time I found other activities to keep myself in shape or else I'll have to buy a new wardrobe.

You should try this exercise - it might help you realize something that you've been wanting to avoid confronting.
