Life is an eternal quest about knowing oneself. It's time to challenge yourself, to rediscover your hidden traits, talents, and tendencies. Several inconvenient questions, which you have swept under the carpet, might resurface. I like to be a free spirit. Some don't like that, but that's the way I am. I am one of the people who love the why of things.I am certainly not one of those who need to be prodded. In fact, if anything, I am the prod.To say "I love you" one must first be able to say the "I." I am neither especially clever nor especially gifted. I am only very, very curious. Without knowing what I am and why I am here, life is impossible. Part of my difficulty is the medium; it’s hard to capture a person—their spirit, kindness, energy level, etc.—in a list of hobbies and interests and in a few paragraphs. I often feel that I just want to get to the “meeting” stage since I believe it’s so hard to tell what someone is like on paper. I rarely even talk on the phone prior to meeting; I figure I’ll find out what I need to know when we meet in person and if it’s not a match, I've only lost an hour or two of time. I wondering if I might have better luck if I were more careful about screening people. At the same time, I feel uncomfortable at times dismissing someone for a very superficial trait (e.g. they love baseball and I don’t), especially since past relationships have taught me that you can match well with someone who isn't your “perfect on paper” guy. I do have an idea of my “type”; however, I’m not married to it since I believe that people don’t *necessarily* know exactly what I want.
I am a happy kind of person. I love to cook and eat good foods. I like to explore and discover new things. I am an athlete. I do play badminton, volleyball, and table tennis. I am type of a person who always strive for the best. However, sometimes, I tend to be impatient to those people who aren't willing to pull their full weight and give their 100%.
