I read one time a little while back that the overwhelming majority of Americans define themselves by the job. That is to say, the first thing we might reveal to a new person we meet is what we do for a living. Not that I'm worried at all about this; I just find it an interesting bit of social psychology. I also find it a bit limiting. Of course, as a student (studying to be a journalist; I can't define myself like that just yet) I am still trying to find my way into the monotonous groove that will be the rest of m life. Like the average person my age, I think it's hard to define who I am. But, that won't stop me from trying. So, I made up a list of things I am. It might kind of sound like that one Meredith Brooks song "Bitch," but whatever... Here you go.
Who am I? I am a liberal, overweight, guitar-playing, music-loving, 2007 Davis Senior High grad, baseball fan, football fanatic, sports enthusiast who's not too athletic, working student, older brother, only son, half-Mexican, half-Filipino, natural born American citizen, shy, student journalist, closet theatre geek, indie filmmaker, Mac user, video game aficionado, caffeine addict, member of generation y.
I don't know if that is in any particular order. But it is what it is. I guess if I had to make up tags like tags for what categories this post goes under, those would be it...
