ltgmarsDay One: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now.
Day Two: Nine things about yourself.
Day Three: Eight ways to win your heart.
1. Leave me alone. I'm really solitary and "independent", and I'm exceedingly introverted in most circumstances, which means I can only take so much socializing. If I'm tired and I want to be left alone, let me be tired; leave me alone. If I tell you I'm tired and it's code for something else (sick, stressed, what have you), let that something else pass. I'll come to you when I'm better.
2. Conversely, talk to me. I'm really solitary and "independent", so it makes me really happy when people haven't given up on me socially. XD I guess the trick is to find a balance of both. Or, if I really like you, I don't really care, and I'm just always happy to talk to you. This last bit only really applies to my best friend from high school, Suite Executive and Halley, and a few of you on my f-list. Though most other people don't talk to me enough to get to the point where I might feel exhausted around them, so maybe it applies to more than I realize. (Hahaha I'm making myself out to sound so antisocial. This is... probably not inaccurate.)
3. Don't be passive-aggressive. I hate that shit. I had to make a pact with Halley to always tell each other when we were mad at each other, because she's notoriously good at being passive-aggressive, and I hated it the handful of times she did it to me. I'm usually really lukewarm about most things, which means I don't get upset often, but when I do get upset and I feel like it's worth it to let my feelings be known, I'll let them be known. Respectful dialogue as a means of achieving mutual understanding (as I'm used to expressing it) is the only real way tension can be resolved for me, so that's what I do, and I expect the same of the people I'm dealing with.
4. Don't be a bigot. I hate that shit.
5. Tell me when something reminds you of me. I like it when people think of me randomly. Like how recently there was some kind of gas scare at the Staples I always used to go to during college, and Gabe sent me the report, saying, "So you know, 11 fire trucks were sent to save your precious from nothing."
6. Ask for my opinion on things. Usually I don't have a real opinion on anything, but I like it when people make me feel as if my pretty much useless input is useful and valid.
7. Tell me I'm good at things. I'm not above getting my ego stroked.
8. Sing with me. Or more generally, like music. But if there's one form of that that gets to me more than any other, it's singing with me. There's no better feeling than belting some tunes with friends, whether they're classic melodies that everyone can get into or random bad songs that just end in fits of giggles. I have a lot of fond memories associated with singing with people I care about.
Day Four: Seven things that cross your mind a lot.
Day Five: Six things you wish you’d never done.
Day Six: Five people who mean a lot (in no order whatsoever).
Day Seven: Four turn offs.
Day Eight: Three turn ons.
Day Nine: Two images that describe your life right now, and why.
Day Ten: One confession.
