Today I was hanging out with two boys in my program (one of which I dated) and the one I used to date said that he gets so annoyed with me because i'm too on the surface and can't talk deep about anything.
I think that this is ENTIRELY untrue. Its true that I'm not as deep as him (he sits in between classes and analyzing how a run in with a squirrel on the path influenced his life) but I don't think i'm a total idiot either.
I'm kinda bothered by this, becasue i dont' want to be seen as a total idiot. I'm well educated and not only have a masters but am now going for a specialist degree at Tufts so I'm not a total idiot..but he's made me feel self conscious about talking in class now because i'm too "on the surface."
I will be honest.. I like to see humor in life, and I don't take things incredibly seriously.. so maybe these are bad characteristics to have as a student or a professional?!?! I don't think I should be judged.. just because I like to shop for cute clothes shouldn't make working hard for my degree mean any less than the people that sit around pondering it all day.
ROAR.
I'm just wondering how many of you are really passionate about things and really hardcore about everything.. because I'm not and I'm wondering if maybe this is a downfall or not allowing me to be a good well rounded person. I mean maybe he has a point?
There are things I love, but I'm not incredibly passionate and preachy about alot of things.. and I'm wondering if this is bad and maybe that I should find something to be more passionate about in life?!!?
