When I think about it, I really do not have more than one aspect of personal style...it's just...Didrik. Though "Didrik" is divided in to a couple sub-catagories I suppose, Ie. "School Style", "Home Style" and maybe a couple others as well. It took me many years to finaly figure out what my "style" really was. Unfortunatly those years weren't exactly good. Luckily I landed right-side-up in the end. There may only be one word that comes even close to describing me , weird. I'm not normal and I really try to not be normal, it is just one of those things I have aspired to NOT be. Normality is boring, and boring is, well, boring. Obviously I wouldn't want to be bored so I'm not normal. Does that make any sense?

Accepting the fact that normality is boring and being bored is something I don't enjoy I have become quite peculiar over the last few years. Realization of the fact that I can be unique (just like everybody else) without caring what other people think has led me to become even weirder than I could have imagined. I might almost seem somewhat schizophrenic, sometimes being loud and cynical and somewhat humorous in a pessimistic sort of way and other times being quiet and withdrawn. In fact my parents think I'm a hermit, driving myself slowly towards insanity, because outside of school I stay in my room which is affectionatly reffered to by my parents as my "cave", avoiding any contact with the billions of other lifeforms that I am forced to share this planet with. As of late there has been one thing that will drive me from my solitude, my love...Brenna. Since she came into my life it has been much brighter (She's been forcing me to go outside and do "things"), but I don't regret it one bit. She is most definatly the highlight of my life.

"School Style" has of late been more social than before. I don't know why that's just the way it turned out. I actually talk to people and actually make the effort to meet some new friends. (hint: my style revolves around my continued pursuit of laziness) An average school day consists of getting to school, some yo-yo'ing, some lunch, and much slacking. Though secretly one of my school career goals is to proove many stereotypes WRONG! I'm a "hard-core skater punk" yet I get nearly straight A's and am a dedicated computer geek and generaly a good-guy. I detest drugs and smoking. I love debates and tend to argue any point whether I agree with it or not even if it's pointless. (a point that's pointless...paradox? I don't think so) At school I'm in some ways very forward, blunt, openminded, outward, though at the same time in some ways I'm very shy and self conscious. Perhaps you begin to understand the little remark about schizophrenia I made earlier?

"Home Style" has become a little less withdrawn lately. Mainly cause of Brenna, she's wonderful. At home I'm more relaxed and peaceful. I keep mostly to myself and try to stay secluded in my room or "cave" avoiding any form of socialization. I sit, leaning back, feet on the desk and in front of the computer most of the day. It's my computer so no one can stop me, I bought it, it's mine and it's one of my most prized possesions (right under toes on my list of prized possesions). Though many people seem to have the illusion that I just sit and play games on the computer I'm actually constantly learning things and I'm also involved in some Youth Rights Activism. I am the Vice President of a non-profit organization known as Oblivion Inc. We do a lot of Activism. It's really fun stuff, that is truly challenging. I also spend a lot of my time at home reading. I love reading, but there's a catch! I only love reading when I choose what I read. Whenever people tell me to read things it becomes automagicaly boring, and if you refer to the end of paragraph 1 and the begining of paragraph 2 then you will know that I do not like boring things. To sum it up, "Home Style" is more relaxed and reserved than "School Style" and I definatly prefer it.

Here we are at the end of a truly marvelous example of a five paragraph essay, don't you think, and it was all about me. Crazy stuff, but this is the part where I tell you about how I like to write my way and this is an example of writing "my way" in a five paragraph essay. Five paragraph essay's aren't all that bad if I can write the way I want. Using weird words and phrases, misspelling certain things and using made up words like "automagicaly". Then writing is fun instead of uninteresting and dull. When I have to follow certain formats and have to check my spelling etc. , writing becomes a chore. Writing should be fun and exciting, not some chore. Anyway that's my speil on how I think writing is and maybe now you understand the way I operate a little better though I promise you that even if you knew me for 100 years you still wouldn't understand how my mind works so don't even try, to many people have lost their sanity trying that. Did you ever watch Mr. Rogers on channel 9? At the end of every show he had this weird song about saying goodbye I think, I always liked that part best because that ment that the show was finally over and I was thinking that singing that song would be a good way to end this essay but I don't remember it. So I'll stick to, "Mrs. Bowerman, this is just an essay that's testing how YOU work, I want to know what you'll say to an essay like this one, if you accept it I'll be a 'happy camper' and if you take of points for my lack of proper gramer and all my run on sentances and sloppy ideas and bad puncuation and stuff then I'll be *sad* and I'll try and make my essays more generic and 'by the book' from now on completely losing all the voice I've worked so hard on.". (Did you know that 'voice' is one of the six writing traits?)
