My Perfect Imperfections

[Cast No Shadow]

There's a tag going around on YouTube, and it's called "My Perfect Imperfections", and I just found it quite interesting.

What you have to do, is list three things you like about yourself, and three things you dislike about yourself.

I like reading things like this, because I think it makes people seem more human, and as my friend Jen said, "Nobody's perfect and it gives people a chance to say, "Hey, I'm not perfect and here's why, and I'm still kinda neat and here's why.""

So I'll go first. I'll start with the dislikes:

I dislike the fact that I'm very shy, and socially awkward in certain situations, and it makes it quite hard for me to meet new friends.

I dislike how unhappy I am with how I look, I'm a pear shape, and having a big ass and no boobs can get depressing! (Shallow, I know 😛)

I dislike how I often have no motivation to do any work, I wish I could just get on with things instead of massively procrasinating over EVERYTHING.

3 likes:

I like that I'm not typically a jealous person. I find it easy to be happy for other people's achievements without thinking, "Hey, I should have got that".

I like that I'm generally quite happy about things, and I don't let much get me down, I always think that no matter what happens, I have my family, my health and my friends and boyfriend.

I like that I always stand up for myself. I am shy, by nature, but that doesn't mean I ever let anyone walk all over me, and if some does something I think is wrong or unfair, I have absolutely no problem telling them so.


You go 😀

Nice idea 🙂

Imperfections

1. I dislike that I'm not good at talking to other people. It's made life at uni extremely difficult and I don't leave my room because of it.

2. I dislike how susceptible I am to depression, it can really mess with my head and it takes a while to snap out of it (until the next time which is never far away).

3. I dislike that I bite my nails when I'm bored or nervous. I'd never paint them but it makes my hands hurt.

Good things

1. I'm good at exams and academia- I've never failed a test in my life.

2. I'm very loyal to my friends but always willing to tell them when they're being an idiot. I think that's what a real friend should be prepared to do.

3. I'm usually a very driven person and excel at things like singing because I constantly persevere with it. I know what I want and I do whatever I can to get it.

Great thread, mate. 🙂

I dislike my anxiety. I'm very awkward in large crowds and sometimes it gets to the point of panic attacks. Silly, really.

I dislike how often I say "I'll do it tomorrow."

I dislike that I've had serious issues with my body in the past.

I like that I'm a nerd, and that's what my boyfriend loves most about me.

I like how I think too much. It's not seen as a good thing, but it helps me see the bigger picture.

I like how I've found my true path in life.

I dislike my gullibility, and my way of just liking people blindly without seeing any faults. I trust too readily, and am way too quick to overlook the bad. This has gotten me in alot of trouble in the past.

I dislike my messiness. I can't keep anything organized.

I dislike my inability to stand up to others when they walk all over me.

But I like my ability typo stand up to others when they try to walk on a friend of mine. I'll fight to the death for my friends and family (just not myself....)

I like my quirkiness and that i'm not afraid to be different. I am who I am; I won't change for anyone. Like me or don't.

I like that i'm an awesome mom and wife. I love that I take care of my family and put them first.

You just described me. Except for the fact that I can SOMETIMES stand up for myself, sometimes.

I dislike my incredible insecurity and the fact that I've allowed ana back into my mind.

I dislike my addiction to coca-cola...seriously, 140-160 calories per can.

I dislike that I can so easily become over-sensitive.

I like that when I am driven and academically successful.

I like that I am taking a break from my career to "just" stay home with my son. This is the best experience of my life.

I like that I have been able travel the world as part of my studies and career to work with homeless, battered, and neglected children.

Ms.Trick agrees: No boobs? I'll be happy to give you some of mine, I have too much of them!

Haha, feel free, Ms. Trick!
