My mother's boyfriend was driving me around one day to complete a few tasks and he mentioned that I am confident and that is the number one defining characteristic of me. I see myself as someone who just does things. I do things to get things done. The way I describe my technology skills is that I know how to press buttons correctly. I can put my mind to do something and get it done as long as I am truly passionate about it. I don't think of myself in any other way than just being myself.One day I was with my mother grocery shopping and this elderly lady came up to me and complimented me on my hair saying that the way I pulled it off so confidently made her want to get her hair done just like mine. I don't have a conventional haircut for the area that I live in at least, not for my gender. I thanked her after my surprise had worn off from being approached like that as it seems that whenever I am around elderly women they tend to compliment my hair, perhaps because I have a resting face where I don't really smile or perhaps they truly like it. I've thought on it but again I just cut my hair the way I do because it's what I do. I am just me.
If I were to say my most marked characteristic I would say that I am me. I have had friends and family attribute my actions to just being me or while describing me to others they would just tell them that I am my own individual. I pride myself in being myself, in living my life the way I do, in just doing things for the sake of doing them. I encourage others to do what is going to make them happy in life, to be the person that they truly want to be.
