What is the ideal
January 27th 2010 23:40
Often when opening a new account in facebook or orkut or twitter ot my space or even blogs in word press or orble, we come across this blank where we are suppose to write a few words about ourselves. For some people (specially those who open an account to find their soulmates) or their first time experience online, this is a big deal as they think this is the first & probably the last impression they can make (or this is the one & only opportunity). Honestly, I usually never read “About me” !!
SAMPLE 1: “afhgkashgdkauerhawjef;akhsro iawejfkajsfhgoaiweffjkadfh... . that basically some it up?”::This individual uses defense mechanism. Probably middle child. Clearly doesn’t give a damn what people think regarding them.
In sample 2, “My life resembels a tornado in its full fury!!!!!!I just wish life wasnt soooooo complicated!!!!”::As you can see from this, the person clearly suffers from ADD(attention deficit disorder). The person always complain & make a big deal out of nothing. Probably these individuals are never satisfied!
In sample3, “im funny,crazy,modest,doing wt ever i want,crazy ARTISTIC...”::You can smell desperation from a mile away!
SAMPLE 4: “Dee
Welcome! I am a homeschool SAHM with five boys- Bashful (12), Grumpy (10), Sleepy (7), Happy (4), and Sneezy (2). Included in this riotous household is a German shepherd with digestive problems (Leigh), an awesome mouser (Cleo), and two of the loudest birds in creation (Hector & Achilles). I am the wife of an Anglican priest (Doc) and we have been marr….” Or “About me..?! well...let's see
you all can just call me "Lolo"...'m from Egypt, but I was born in Qatar and currently 'm still in Qatar. I have 3 sisters and 2 brothers...'m the eldest at home *which is not fun at all*. My major is computer science at uni. and it'a kinda' hard, but still fun ^__^'”:
tating everything that seems important exteriorly but what about you? Who are you? Would I want to know you?SAMPLE 5: “...” or “finding it yourselve” or “i am not certain of it myself..
”::The most common of all: they genuinely think they came up with this super stuff “find out your selves” about themselves or haven’t figured out life but little do they know that more than 60 % people end up writing something similar. Of course everyone is different! It is to find similarities or common interest that we gather here.SAMPLE 6:” “Talented” is a far cry from who yours truly is, but my efforts are yet to freeze in their tracks.
Calculus concepts are lovely on paper and the internet, and yours truly passionately pours over them, but the passion vaporises in the Examination Hall.
The Paint Brush was my favourite; the pen has taken over. My skills in art are rudimentary, but you can’t beat Yours Truly in English language, literature, and etymology.
Oratory is a skill Yours Truly passionately masters. Try to beat me and you’ll know!!!
Humankind may mistake me for an Anglophile because of the way Yours Truly says “arse”, but Yours Truly is just Anglo, not an Anglophile. The gloom of English weather, brogue of English towns, and pooh dating back to the eighteenth century that is afloat in Thames are conducive to making me an Anglophobe.
The last time Yours Truly played dress-up was when my memory was non-existent. Shopping for clothes is a despicable affair Yours Truly prefers to have nothing to do with. Yours Truly will shop for clothes only before a premiere.
Yours Truly’s room is inundated with books of all imaginable kinds-classics and contemporary, fiction and non-fiction. Exquisite pens to Yours Truly are a collector’s item. My personalized desktop secured with a password is a prime part of my existence. If you want to know more about me, then crack the password!
Sarcasm is bliss to Yours Truly and no Joke can beat the legendary Sarcasm. It’s quite a pity Sarcasm doesn’t work with every one. It’s quite a pity that my best friend, Sarcasm, is disregarded in this pathetic world. It’s quite a pity that Sarcasm is mistaken for Spite.
Albert Einstein was good in the lab and in the bed; he was so much of an infidel. Obviously he’s not my hero. Neither is Benjamin Franklin, or Michael Owen, or Obama, or even Mahmud Ahmedinijad. It’s none other than “Top Gun” Crowley, the legendary serial killer from the early twentieth century. He shot down the Patrol Police who asked for his driving license when he was indulged in a necking party with his girl friend off a highway in New York. It took the whole of New York Police Force to apprehend this one accomplice-less guy! He’s certainly my HERO.
Liz smiles when Yours Truly quips, “Rose is the uglier one”, but her face falls when Yours Truly adds, “Liz is the ugliest!” & “nt a very senti person,v much practical,nt very outspoken wid strangers....but once i frnd wid sum1 i giv it in ma best 2 keep it going....very gud at keeping secrets(trust me on dis)...very moody n i cant help it...but guess if u kno me u wud say im nt tht bad a person....dis is hw i define myself
im here 2 keep in tuch wid ma frnds!!”:: What a showoff. Either egoistic or knows how to bluff depending on whether the facts are true or made up. Trying to hide the true feelings within. Probably suffering from many complexities! I haven’t seen anyone going around saying I cannot keep secrets! so why would anyone be interested when they read about it ( surely they have no proof what soever..
) Must agree :Excellent words chosen though!!Now you know why I think there is no “about me” that I would admire to such an extent, maybe I would use it myself. Do feel free to let me know your perfect “about me’s”.
