I am a Virgo... to those whom it may matter. I am attending university studying electrical engineering. One of my many dreams is to start my own guitar amplification company.
I spend my free time working on music, or watching CSI:LV. Commuting to school is the most enjoyable thing possible in a city stifled with heavy traffic, as I am able to listen to my music in the car, singing/screaming along to flowing rhythms and climbing melodies. I cannot be comfortable with tiny earbud headphones; unhealthy for my ears and lack any desirable tonality. I am a musician, plain and simple. "Does this mean I play guitar and call myself a guitarist?" No. I means I take the time to study, listen, discuss, create, critique, and analyze music. I love to see the notes of melodies in my mind form vast landscapes of tales untold by tongue. My instruments of choice bass, voice, guitar, and keyboard/piano (not necessarily in that order). Music will always be a part of my life, and I do my best to keep it healthy.
Shyness is a horrible attribute which I carry over my left shoulder. But once I open up, all should be well. I've been an introvert my whole life and have horrible social anxiety in large crowds.
I've had many great and wonderful people come into and exit my life. I remember them all. In fact, stages of my life can easily and accurately broken down by the base of who my best friend was at any given time. Even though most are no longer actively present in my life, I am grateful they were in my life when I needed them.
To be 'normal' is to be a person who strives for self-definition without persecution in a blending sea of colours. Even if you are at one end of the spectrum instead of in the middle, doesn't mean you are any more 'different'. Don't think of middle and end as positional factors but instead look at them as absolute. In which they solely affect themselves. No matter how much the colours get twisted into one another, they will always stand separate and defined. Self-defined by their very nature.
I believe (yes, believe) that the best way to learn more about myself, and others, is to debate. Now the average person ("whoa did he just call me average?") gives the word 'debate' a negative connotation. But what if you take away that negative away. What are you left with? If you read this and would like to engage in a conversation with me, mention this topic. It makes for a nice icebreaker.
Modern terminology of 'normal' is used as either inclusive or exclusive representation of one self in or against a sample of the whole population. Those who take offense to being 'normal' merely desire to be anthropologically defined as more 'different' for self-gratification in the eternal struggle of human kind to prove that we are not just brains in a vat.
