For those of you who know me (hardly anybody), you probably know that I am a HUGE band geek. I don't get mad about stuff in general, but in band, I get mad just hearing that I could play one note better. I am always saying (thinking), 'What gives you the right to judge me! I sound better than anyone!', but this week in Percussion Camp really taught me something.
They DO have the right to judge me. At first, I thought that I am just as good as any of those High School players teaching us, but during a demonstration of theirs, I noticed that they were FAR more trained and experienced.
This just showed me how I can't just judge anyone right off the bat and that I really have to get to know ther person. I will tell you something. If you look at me, you would probably think that I am just like any other Asian, smart in school, plays the piano, and is VERY anti-social. But I am basically the opposite of that. I am kind of smart in school (just making A's) and well, I know how to play the piano, BUT I am VERY VERY social.
So, main lesson : DON'T JUDGE SOMEONE BY THEIR FIRST IMPRESSIONS!

Your writing is... just soooooooo corny.
ReplyDeleteGood reflections, Daniel. I suppose we all have to make judgments of sorts one way or another, but we certainly don't have to make destructive comments on others, especially when they're uncalled for. Which means withholding our judgments / comments about people or things based on our first impressions is indeed a very wise thing to do ... Good job! =D
ReplyDeleteLOL Daniel Liu has a blog???? 0.0???
ReplyDeleteWell, about what you wrote, it's not bad; in a matter of fact, it's a lot better than the writings of people your age. However, I'd like to disagree how you say that a person should not judge based on first impressions. Why? Because if they already present themselves as a douche looking at your wrongs and judging you... then EVEN when you actually begin to know them, that very attribute will sometime appear. Though the actual "douche-ness", of a person may seem less severe along with a greater relationship, that very "douche-ness" is still in them. So even if they might seem nicer to you, inside, their still a douche.
And btw, I didn't understand you when you said "I get mad just hearing that I could play one note better". So you get mad when people say you play one note better? LOL, nah I get what you're saying, but you got to watch out for that kind of stuff lol.
