casual reminder that your perception and reality are two different things

It's just funny how people can assume things that are so far from the truth. Yes, I am talking about what other people might think of me. Yes, because I do not like their assumptions. Yes, I am concerned about this -- I have always been concerned about people's opinions of me.

I was going to compare other people's impressions of me at different points of my life: high school, college, and now as a young upcoming professional. But that would divulge too much personal information and this blog is not the appropriate place for that. Also, how am I supposed to really know what other people think of me?

Anyway, I just want to say that contrary to popular belief I am not a smoker (I am thinking about it. And I have tried. And the temptation is too much sometimes. But I won't consider myself one), I drink in moderation and only occasionally, I don't do anything with boys at all (as much as I'd like to, ah, sigh), I don't have boatloads of money at my disposal, I only have a handful of people I feel connected with, and I don't feel full and I am actually just trying to get my shit together.
