It has been a fun time, and I have learned so much from it. For some background, I thought about becoming vegan for a long time, then randomly decided to pursue that goal one day. I truly love animals, and feel like they should be respected. Plus, I am also doing better in health since I&#8217;m lactose intolerant (and also intolerant to other things).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ff99cc;\">I am an introvert<\/span>&#8211; I have always been a quiet kid. I have tried to be more sociable, but it is still nice to be alone. Nothing beats chilling out alone watching Netflix. I also come off really anti-social\/ mean, but I am actually quite goofy when you get to know me. It&#8217;s always a shock for people to find that out.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ff99cc;\">I am open-minded<\/span>&#8211; Over the years I have come to be accepting of many things. I always try to step away, and see if there is a way I can understand someone\/ something. I feel like everyone deserves a voice in this world, even if it does not match up with my beliefs.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ff99cc;\">I am a Slytherin\/ Capricorn<\/span>&#8211; Okay, okay, I know what you&#8217;re thinking: What am I suppose to do with that? I think these are both fun ways to see my personality\/ why I act the way I do. Slytherins tend to be ambitious, determined, and leaders. I personally feel like this relates to me. Capricorns are also ambitious, realistic, and sensitive. Overall, this speaks volumes of who I am (so it&#8217;s not as stupid as it seems).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"color: #ff99cc;\">I have the advocate (INFJ-A\/ INFJ-T) personality type<\/span>&#8211; So instead of spewing out a bunch of facts, I rather just give a general umbrella term for my personality. The advocate personality sees helping people as their purpose in life (which explains why I would see myself being a therapist). Some of the strengths that go along with this personality is creativity, insight-fullness, and decisiveness. Some of the weaknesses are needing to have a cause, and sensitivity.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Again, I hope these things helped you relate\/ understand who I am as a person. It was nice to share it, and I hope you guys enjoyed reading.
