profiling, as requested...

Profiling of myself is kind of like looking at myself from a third person view. Which is difficult given that I do not like looking into the mirror. Still, from what I hear of other people, I suppose it is possible to assemble somewhat of a profile. From this sentence onwards, all observations will be from a third-person point of view.

Currently a six-footer at Taylor’s College, Subang Jaya campus with large-ish build, could be called buff, or fat, depending on current attire, doing the International Canadian Pre-U program. Rather thick layer of black hair with a brownish tint that is barely visible that falls into half curled locks that looks ridiculous after waking up. Overall, will usually project the sense of a large, harmless goliath, or a savage twisted demented maniac, depending on mood and if disturbed in writing, play, sleep, or consuming of aiskrim potong.

Highly opinionated person, with ideas on how to catch the perfect mate, evade the tough questions, undo the stupidest mistakes, and how to take over the world in less than 48 hours, among others. Reports suggest that opinions tend to be spot-on. Acidly sarcastic, with wit well appreciated by those not the target of it, is annoyed easily, has a short temper, and even shorter attention span. Has wild imagination that doesn’t usually make sense but with ideas that are very practical when looked at closely. Slightly twisted sense of humour. Desires instant gratification, but will also take larger payouts over a longer time span if required. Meticulous with inconsequential details but is sloppy with everything else. Overall impression is that of an intellectual or sage, at intervals, but never both at once.

Quirks that do not fall specifically under physical or mental profiling include, but are not restricted to, singing random lines from random songs at particularly appropriate moments, outbursts of seemingly irrelevant information at equally random intervals, and the liking of the word “random”. Given to long periods of silence and melancholy that are actually disguised periods of observations to derive more points for witty comments. Conformity for the sake of is a big no-no, since remembering all the things to conform to is too tiring. Given to dancing little jigs in mid-stride just to break the monotony of walking, also related to wild hand gestures that occur occasionally while conversing. Has a penchant for heavy shoes.

Interests include, besides the mentioned opinion giving, writing, music, drama, anything electronically related, blogging, photography, woodwork, cooking, baking, martial arts, Latin dancing, armed combat, and listing down unnecessarily long lists. Particular point of note is the attempt to practice the analytical methods used in the Sherlock Holmes novels but on minds and social theory. Has annoying tendency, according to others, of analyzing too deeply. Notable as well is the particular enjoyment of winning things.

Out.
