Last beat in the soul

I’m creative at best: a dedicated artiste, web designer, and a graphic designer. I'm a writer but I detest poets. I’m a collector of figurines and merchandises. I’m a pacifist with a love for action and fighting sequences. I look mixed but I’m Chinese; I promise. I’m also eighteen so that means that I should be a full-fledged adult. I value expressing one’s self, so I rant frequently. I despise trends, fads, and gimmicks. I am borderline Agnostic and Buddhist. I sing in my spare time. I am thankful for nightmares as they bless me with a sensation of security upon awakening. I have a huge dislike for films and books which relies heavily on romance. I also recently discovered that music is not my life; but apparently it’s everyone else’s. I label traveling as a hobby although I almost never walk anywhere beyond the radius of my house and the mailbox. I love psychology. I hate thieves, copyright infringers, condescending people, and especially liars. I dream to live in a beautiful, expensive apartment. I strive to be a concept designer. Hello, Hello; I’m Cindy. :]

I’m a train wreck with multiples of split personalities. I attempt to disprove proven theories. I do not believe in perfection and find flaws to be far more beautiful. I mirror people’s attitudes: if you’re open, I’m open; if you’re shy, I’m shy. I am caring and empathetic but I never show it with my tough-guy exterior. I believe honesty is the best policy; no exceptions. I satirize life and sarcasm is my major. I am extremely loyal but find people inadvertently untrustworthy. I seek for happiness which derives from love, although this does not always hold true. I prefer complex ideas but a blunt and thorough execution. I trust that the majority misunderstands me just as I misunderstand them. Especially girls. I have yet to have seen the most beautiful person in the world. I dislike finishing second. I unwillingly dramatize and bring everything to a new level for unneeded excitement. I don’t seek for attention as the spotlight seeks me. I love inspiring people; negatively or positively. I am far from being girly. I nerd like a dork. :]

"Everyone says love hurts, but that is not true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love, but in reality love is the only thing in this world that covers up all pain and makes someone feel wonderful again. Love is the only thing in this world that does not hurt." -Unknown

"A witty saying proves nothing." -(Voltaire)

"Numbers are my friend, and they are always around me. Each one is unique and has its own personality. The number 11 is friendly and 5 is loud, whereas 4 is both shy and quiet- it's my favorite number, perhaps because it reminds me of myself. Some are big -23, 667, 1,179- while others are small: 6, 13, 581. Some are beautiful , like 333, and some are ugly, like 289. To me , every number is special." -Daniel Tammet, (Born on a Blue Day)

"No, a proof is a proof. What kind of a proof? It's a proof. A proof is a proof, and when you have a good proof, it's because it's proven." -Jean Chretien
