    The List o' 3 Things

    Found this at some place. Thought it would be fun. Might teach us a bit about each other...

    3 things I'm ashamed of:
    - Being a part of humanity with all the shit it's capable of (might sound cheesy but it's the truth)
    - My inability to accept that I have a pretty cool life (I keep complaining about things like my body - mostly the stomach - and other things that are small compared to what many others go through)
    - The fact that I suck at doing things I should be doing (where is my driver's license?)

    3 things I'm proud of:
    - My personality/sense of humor
    - That I've become a pretty good drummer in a short amount of time (I burn for it!!!)
    - The summer a few years ago when I lost almost 40 pounds

    3 things I wanna do in 2007:
    - Play live again
    - Getting accepted to the "sound technology" (whatever that is in english) course so I can study it
    - Record a demo which doesn't sound like shit

    3 things I wouldn't survive without:
    - The drums
    - Pepsi Max (best drink ever)
    - The people that matters

    3 people I envy:
    - Yoshiki Hayashi, because he is the best musician ever in my opinion; not just a godly drummer but also an amazing songwriter
    - My drumming teacher Per because he rocks at the instrument and still finds time to pursue a career as an archeologist (I don't understand what's funny about that subject, but hey)
    - I choose to put "all those guys who are smaller and look more hot in a womanly way" as a single entity - I HATE YOU!!!

    YOUR TURN!

    Threads that pique my interest seem to be a common occurrence these days.

    The List of 3


    3 things I'm ashamed of

    1) My apathy towards bettering myself and my overall lazy attitude.
    2) My inability to convey my thoughts clearly.
    3) Not being able to speak the languages of my background fluently.(This is probably one of the more prominent ones after Number 1)


    3 things I'm proud of

    1) My ability to empathize with the moods and thoughts of others.
    2) My open mindedness.
    3) My drive to help others.


    3 things I want to do in 2007

    1) Become more motivated, in turn discarding the apathy I have for myself. (The following two follow this train of thought)
    2) Graduating with good enough grades so that I may enter my first choice university.
    3) Become more fit.


    3 things I couldn't survive without

    1) My family.
    2) Contact and communication with others.
    3) Sleep.


    3 people I envy

    1) People who are artistically gifted, especially in music. More specifically those who play Violin and Piano. (In my opinion the two most graceful instruments known to man)
    2) People who have found happiness in their lives.
    3) People who have no fear of the judgment of others.


    Writing this post was very refreshing for me. Thanks to Terra for starting such a therapeutic thread.

    3 things I'm ashamed of:
    - Laughing at my friend last weekend for passing out from lack of oxygen. (long story).
    - Calling this chick a bitch for stealing my wallet as a joke, even though she probably only did it because she wanted my attention.
    - Lighting my face on fire by mistake.

    3 things I'm proud of:
    - Having a relatively open mind when it comes to stuff.
    - Being an awkward kid. It makes me unique.
    - Managing to stay in college, despite a desperate desire not to.

    3 things I wanna do in 2007:
    - Cut down on the mind altering substances.

    - Get a significant other or something.

    3 things I wouldn't survive without:
    - Friends. (not the TV show)
    - Music. I don't play, but I'd go crazy if I couldn't listen to it.
    - Water. Doiiii.

    People I envy:
    - My grandpa. He's 88 years old and still kickin', even though his life was (and still is) full of little joys. He finds happiness in so many menial things, too, such as when I visit him and stuff.
    - Anyone who is brave enough to question stuff like religion and the government.
    - NARUTO-KUN!, BECAUSE HE NEVER GIVES UP.

    Here I go...

    3 things I'm ashamed of:

    - How everything and anything makes my self-esteem and my mental balance crumble
    - The ease with which I envy and despise people for petty, stupid reasons.
    - My tights, legs and butt. Whatever people say, they look fat and I shall not rest until I get thinner... not to mention an ugly scar at the middle of the right one...

    3 things I'm proud of:
    - My novel. So far it's 150 pages and it keeps growing, and my critics all like it...
    - My family. We were old money but lost the money, now we have risen through hard work and honesty. Say what you want, I'm damn proud of being part of my clan.
    - My patience, towards others and towards myself.

    3 things I wanna do in 2007:

    - Get a boyfriend I actually feel something for
    - Finish my novel, or at least write as much as possible
    - Get that scholarship for England and study there.

    3 things I wouldn't survive without:

    - Books!!
    - A computer. How would I be able to write without one? My handwriting sucks.
    - Music. How can anyone survive without music?
    - I'm adding the fourth just because it's true - my family.

    3 people I envy:

    - People who were born in first-world countries. Seriously people, you don't know how lucky you are.
    - People with an IQ higher than 150. The world must be something with that much intelligence.
    - Professional musicians, particularly violin players. I wonder if they realize just the amount of beauty they're able to create.

    無理してここまでやってきて これからもすっと同じだろう
    それでも何かを信じたい 心の奥の声

    3 things I'm ashamed of:
    - The fact that I shut myself away from people that I don't like or care to be around, sometimes just everyone in general, just to avoid interaction with that person/group.
    - That it is probably one of the hardest things to do is to get motivated to do anything.
    - That for some reason I just let the girl that I really liked leave me, not gonna say "of my dreams" or "that I loved" because I am still generally young.

    3 things I'm proud of:
    - Getting back on my skate after breaking my ankle, and doing gaps and stairs again.
    - My almost inhuman ability to take verbal/physical harassment, also comes with self control.
    - Noticing the world for what it is, and accepting it. A lot of people won't open their eyes....

    3 things I wanna do in 2007:
    - Go further with my designing skills.
    - Try not to hate most people, and become a bit more tolerant of ignorance.
    - And...yeah...Find another girlfriend...

    3 things I wouldn't survive without:
    - My almost stressless attitude.
    - Skateboarding
    - A computer

    3 people I envy:
    - BoC, He makes some of the better sigs around.
    - PSJ, He makes some of the best sigs I've seen. So pretty much their designing skills.
    - Anybody who can find that one thing, that one thing that makes them glad to be alive.

    I'm official.

    3 things I'm ashamed of:
    not helping my mom out around the house more. this whole housekeeping gig is hard.
    not making more of an effort to stay in touch with my old friends
    ummm, being a complete chocolate addict? well, that's not true; i'm not ashamed of this. i just can't think of anything else.

    3 things I'm proud of:
    my artistic ability
    my ridiculous mental strength, despite my frail appearance
    the fact that i have way more than 3 things that i'm proud of. not to sound egotistical or anything...

    3 things I want to do in 2007:
    maybe do something concerning my complete denial about the fact that i just might have feelings for a certain person of the male persuasion. also possibly do something about the fact that i would kill to get to know said person better.
    let life take me wherever it wants to, and to do well at whatever i end up doing.
    develop and follow a decent exercise plan so that i'm not always feeling guilty for not exercising more.

    3 things I wouldn't survive without:
    music
    guh. chocolate. also closely related to this is fruit
    books
    adding a fourth, because this is important. i couldn't survive without having something meaningful to do most of the time. too much spare time would probably drive me insane.

    3 people I envy:
    people who travel to far off and exotic places just for fun
    people who can play musical instruments
    women like halle berry and aishwarya rai. it's just not fair that they get to be that pretty.
