Currently listening to: Look What You Made Me Do – Taylor Swift

The world moves on, another day another drama, drama
But not for me, not for me, all I think about is karma
And then the world moves on, but one thing’s for sure
Maybe I got mine, but you’ll all get yours

What part of your personality appeared later in life?

Prompt created by yours truly. 
Feel free to use any prompts for July that I post and/or tag me.
I’d love to read your responses.

When I started uni, I became rather funny and dare I say witty? That’s what people told me anyway.

I was more of a free spirit then. I wasn’t living with my cousin off campus anymore and I had my own private dorm room, where I was housed with all the athletes.

I think it partly had to do with my first gay friend, his name was Tony. He was mixed (black and caucasian), two years older than me, and very flamboyant… hella outspoken. He wasn’t from Minneapolis, he was actually from Rochester. Uni was a time where I had access to a lot of other Asians and exposure to people who weren’t from the Minneapolis/St. Paul area.

Tony and I would sit in each other’s rooms for hours and talk about everything, especially about guys, watch movies or anime, and have sleepovers after a night of drinking. He would make me laugh and laugh and laugh till I cried. There were times when I’d make him cry from laughter as well. It felt good laughing until our stomachs hurt and we were literally wheezing. I really cherished our times together. It’s almost as if he unlocked a piece of me that was dormant from my early childhood.

Nowadays, I don’t laugh as much as I did back then but I do try to do things that are fun and make me feel… less serious.
