• The first thing people notice about my personality is that I'm quick-witted. I have an odd sense of humor, but most people find me funny.
• I consider myself a nihilist. There is no point to life and nothing really makes sense. However, I don't consider myself a pessimist or a misanthropist. The "hate everyone, hate the world" mentality is not my thing, and at the end of the day, I love humanity.
• I believe that people are inherently good, no matter how ignorant or selfish they are, yet I can't trust them. I'm optimistic about opportunities and intangible things, but I've been hurt too many times to form real relationships with people.
